    Depends what rock you want into. Can't go astray with some vintage sh*t like Thin Lizzy, Led Zepplin, Bob Seiger. On the other hand you got bands like AeroSmith, the Chillies, the Manics, Queen and Co. I'd include AC/DC in here .. except they're somewhere between metal, rock, and blues

    ALthough, I might suggest you take a listen to a band called "3rd Eye Blind". They're best described as "American College Rock" assuming such a genre could exist, they're fairly new, and not bad to listen to. Their first album is much better than the second though and is titled "3rd Eye Blind" originally enough ;)

    Yes...

    If good means needing to hire to extre fools to bang on bass drums to make it sound as if you're doing blastbeats really fast.

    C`mon give the guy some credit. Those other guys don't really do anything anyway other than trying to go down on each other on stage.

    Actualy, if you've ever seen them live, you'd know that the two twats bang away on bass drums...
    I can get some pics...
    But I don't want to sully myself by looking through any slipknot sites for some...

    Sufice to say, that Joey's not doing half of what you hear.

    I hate the gimp with the long nose I think he is a "percussionist" but not an actual drummer. And the way they go on in interviews about their music blah blah blah blah

    they're a metal boy band
