I'm forming a list of songs that I need to find tabs of so I can start practicing. I want to form a band and eventually play at the Battle of the Bands thing here in the spring. I want you all to suggest some rock and metal songs... there are some bands I will simply not play: Anything "emo" (you know exactly what I mean) Evanescence Hinder Staind Nickleback "Classic" rock such as ACDC and Led Zep (everyone's done it) Suggest Free Bird or Stairway and, congratulations, you are the 1,000,000,000th butthead to suggest that. Anything else is pretty much fair game. I've already decided on "Enter Sandman" by Metallica. I'm pretty much open to any suggestions, other than what I listed. I probably forgot some, too. Remember, they have to be "school appropriate" songs. There are some editted versions we could easily play (such as the editted version of Sober- no bleeping, only replaced a few key words).

Soundgarden - Jesus Christ pose [if mentioning Hesus isn't a no-no, I dunno] Soundgarden - Rusty Cage Soundgarden - Fell on [Black Days] [slower, but has nice, gloomy sound] Pearl Jam - Even Flow Pearl Jam - Oceans Pearl Jam - Alive Pearl Jam - Porch [I think it's that song, slow and sort of sad sounding] Metallica - One [because I ****ing love it] Metallica - Nothing else matters [because MY MOM loves it ] I'll think of more in the morning. Give me some time.

99% of the tunes that I like I could not suggest ... no guitars If you could learn to play "Knights Of Cydonia" by Muse, that would so rock. That has guitar in it!

Audioslave is often mentioned and described by many as 'mixture of Soundgarden and R.A.T.M.', due to the fact it has members of those 2 bands. Truth is, Audioslave is a whole new sound, closer to original hard rock, but also with a heavy socio-political note at times ["Broken city", "Sound of a gun"]. In short, Audioslave is ++gud. [/babble]
Audioslave songs I warmly recommend:
Revelations [a MUST, if no other, because of the riffs and great lyrics] Original fire One and the same Your time has come Be yourself Man or animal [angry, loud, rapid, perfect] Dandelion [warm, loud, slow, perfect]
Edit: out of bands whose entire work might not be familiar to you, I've chosen some well known singles
Faith no more - Epic [I know, everyone's done it, but damn that song is good] Faith no more - Midlife crisis [strains the voice a bit though, this one] Beastie Boys - Time for living [no comment needed, classy] Sepultura - Slave new world [nice, simple text] Sepultura - Roots Bloody Roots [Get. It. Now.]
I'm gonna retire back here and make Red Hot Chili Peppers suggestions list in the meantime. Expect older stuff.
edit: MEH. Forget about "Mother's Milk" and "B.S.S.M." :/ it'll all be "Californication":
Parallel Universe [loud, ripping, perfect] Otherside Get on top Easily

Eh, no problemo - actually, I presumed the 'limited choice' situation and that's why I didn't suggest any of the older Red Hot Stuff. "Californication", though, it's their last good album [IMAO] with decent, if not phenomenal songs. BTW, Zarre dear, I didn't know you were such a god damned paladin no illegal downloads? Not one song? p.s.: Indeed, Audioslave sounds much more commercial [duh] on their last 2 albums. Strangely enough, I like them more because of it, just like I like Idlewild because they're mellowed down a bit. Bah. I'm getting too old for this RnR crap.

Oy, how could I forget Pumpkins? "Zero", "Today" and "Rat in a cage" are my favorites. Yes, yes, I'm a commercial Breton Witch. Sue me.

Ewww, Smashing Pumpkins.... Forgot about them. XD stargelman: You know me, I'll be biting the head off of somethin' and Mallet, you suggested Anthrax, which of course is stuff you WILL find on the radio. Same goes with Chevelle. I'm talking "mainstreamish" stuff, but I guess the radio here in Oklahoma (we have a few classic rock stations, one that plays pretty much anything, and two rock stations that plays mostly newish, mainstreamish stuff, but one has nights where they play punk rock and black metal) is better than yours. Yes, no single song. I'll leave illegal downloads to other people. I know artists usually don't get much money from CDs (face it, they might get 10% of the cost of a CD), but I still won't do it. I was seriously pondering some Alice in Chains. Mmmmm, grunge. This post has been edited by Zarrexaij: Sep 15 2007, 11:47 PM

Please, think of the animals - Bite a carrot instead! There are tons of bands from the east coast that I'd suggest, like Helmet, Sick of it all or Pro-Pain, but they're mostly unaired, non-commercial bands and they have troublesome lyrics how about VOODOO CHILD by Jimmy?

Do you think I'm vegan or something? Was also thinking of doing The Outsider by A Perfect Circle. The prince of all anti-suicide songs. I'd like some more suggestions plz. If I need to list off the CDs I have I will, btw. This post has been edited by Zarrexaij: Sep 20 2007, 01:33 AM

I'd like some more suggestions plz. If I need to list off the CDs I have I will, btw. I suggest the complete opposite - The Prince of Suicide, Ian Curtis and JOY DIVISION - "Isolation" \o/ Some mean bastards will say that song sounds monotonous, but the fact is - it's actually hypnotic [bass], which leaves lot of room for solo improvisation [guitar]. [and YES - by all means, list of CD's would make this job much easier and productive ] This post has been edited by milanius: Sep 20 2007, 11:27 PM
