Rock on!

[ShortMonkey]

All rock fans unite! Pop rock, alternative rock, hard rock, classic rock, you name it, it's all discussed here!

Rules:

- No spamming
- No flaming
- No pornography (we discuss rock, not -ock)
- Respect all the BBS rules
- Respect everyone's opinions on rock music (that does NOT mean you cannot say "I don't like that band but that's just my opinion")

How do I join?

To join, simply name your 5 favourite rock bands/singers and 5 favourite rock songs.

Here you can even discuss bands that aren't exactly classified as rock, such as Def Leppard, who are mainly classified as hair metal, because hair metal is more rock than metal and the metal club of Newgrounds,Metal Hell, wouldn't accept discussion of those type of genres. Many nu metal bands are also more hard rock than metal who you can discuss over here.

Here are my top 5 favourite rock artists:

Linkin Park
Disturbed
Def Leppard
Bon Jovi
System of a Down

Here are my top 5 favourite rock songs:

Lying Awake - Our Lady Peace
Have A Nice Day - Bon Jovi
Prayer - Disturbed
Indestructible - Disturbed
Armageddon It - Def Leppard

So what are you waiting for? Join and start rocking!

I think it's just "Criminal" by Disturbed, I don't know why the hell I put smooth in front of it...
Was listening to Michael Jackson's "Smooth Criminal" a while back so it prolly got stuck in my head.

So yea, glad to be here ShortMonkey. I saw that you are hosting the "Prayer" by Disturbed collab! The song is kick ass, and the animators you got working with you are amazing! Wish ya luck there.

Cheers. Yeah, they are great animators and great team workers. Anyway, back on the subject of music, have you heard Armageddon It by Def Leppard? I think the parts near the end where Joe sings "ooh really gettin' it" is very catchy.

I listen to MCR a bit, but only one song, and thats "Dead"

I listen to The Rasmus too, I got a tonna songs by them.

Also, don't sig steal, its not cool.

[ShortMonkey]

My favourite song by MCR is Welcome to the Black Parade... Other than that, Teenagers is good but I don't really like the rest of their songs. I think they whinge too much.

I like them too. Also, 4 AM is a good song but my favourite of theirs is Lying Awake. Most of those bands you like I haven't checked out much - I'll have to get to it!

Alright, awesome. Yeah, it's nice to find other LP fans here, seeing as how General seems to be...hostile towards us.

Also, Papercut and Stricken are awesome songs. Welcome to to Rock on! :D

Yeah, Papercut is my favorite song ever. The dual vocals near the end just blow me away.

I agree. I love Chester's singing at the end.

Also, I've been checking out some Rush. I must say, they are very good. I'd recommend checking out their stuff if you haven't already :)

I'm an LP fan too, but I just didn't have them in my top 5. I also listen to Sum 41 and Finger Eleven.
"Papercut" is also my fav LP song, "Numb" comes in a close 2nd.

I also love Disturbed for the one great reason. The maniacle laughter during most the songs just makes my day. Fav maniacle laughter from "Inside the Fire", it brings out the evil in me >=D

I used to listen to Sum 41 quite a lot... haven't listened to them much lately.

I know what you mean haha. I love the part in that song where he shouts out something after the guitar solo as it launches into the next part of the song... I think he shouts out "Take away it!" but I have no proof because it's not part of the lyrics...

I've listen to some Rush. Not that great in my opinion, although I do love YYZ. I remember playing it all night long on Guitar Hero II. But other than that, Rush sort of underwhelms me.

Hmmm... aren't they more metal/heavy metal than hard rock?

[DeathNoteetoNhtaeD]

I bought the Rise Against CD, The Sufferer and the Witness today (The first one I got was Appeal to Reason, so I'm working my way backwards). Impressive stuff still, but I prefer Appeal to Reason. There are a few great songs, Like Chamber the Cartridge, Injection, Prayer of the Refugee, Drones, Worth Dying For, Roadside, The Good Left Undone, and Survive.

Ok, so that's not a "few". It's a good amount, and all are worth checking out.
