1) Tool - I've been a fan since ÆNEMA was around, they're dark... almost Satanic at times, lyrics are really inspiring and though-provoking. And Maynard JK can scream and scream real good. Adam Jones is one of my favorate Guitarists ever, I mean listen to what the man can do with that guitar! It's really quite amazing to here Paul's Bass (Which, btw is what instrument I play) but a few years back Paul left them. So sad.
2) Disturbed - Wow. These guys just kind of came in the scene unannounced with Stupify but it was Breathing that REALLY got me into them. Fuzz is one of the baddest Bass players ever, and Dave's got a great voice. Even if his vocal chords are burnt from screaming "Ooh-WHAA!" too much. (I read that in Guitar Magazine not to long ago). They're newest Album, BeLIEve (I had to point that out) is really really Religious, which is kind of cool but awkward at the same time. BTW so people know - that image on the CD cover/guitars is really this :
-Pentagram
-Catholic Cross
-Islamic Crescant
-Some Star t hat I can't recognize.
3)Slipknot - Not a whole lot to say about these guys other than that they're a HUGE band, great music, great sounds. And dark lyrics.
4) Supprised no one has said this yet - MushroomHead - Like Slipknot and Tool put together, they're single Solitare Unravelling is both twisted and light. It sounds evil but it's not. Gotta love them.
5) Dius - I'm going to be so pissed if no one knows who these guys are. Eddie E. is a badass Bass player, Steven has a nice voice, and can play lead guitar quite nicely. Cameron on drums = nice, and Micheal G. on Guitar is real nice sounding. Wait. That's my band. We count though.
