What bands own your ears right now?

Right now Keaton Simons owns my ears. He's a rock/blues musician if you haven't heard of him! He's a great guy to relax to. I can't wait for his show tonight!

LOVING the new Disturbed...it SHREADS!!!

Welcome aboard Charlenarock!

Greatest album I've heard in years: "Devils and Angels" by Melee. You've got to check it out.
"Built To Last" http://youtube.com/watch?v=6JIrpLtqAJc

"Can't Hold On" http://youtube.com/watch?v=ofEAbOOQImo

I've been rocking it to "Planet Earth" by Prince lately. He really can crank on that guitar!

Also loving "Captiva" by Falling Up. If you don't know them, do yourself a favor and listen to the song "A Guide to Marine Life."

Sorry X, that is just SO NOT my taste. No offence but it's just sappy, chick music (IMHO)

Funny thing though, the link to the Disturbed I've been thrashing to was at the top of the "More From: warnerbrosrecords" box on the "Melee - Built To Last" page!!

Disturbed "Inside The Fire"

I can't listen to that screaming death metal stuff. To my ears that is just noise.

Hey Donn, did you listen to the Falling Up clip? That may be closer to your taste perhaps.

Yea I did & that was, like you said, "...closer to [my] taste..." (%) I won't go out and buy it, but I wouldn't turn it off if I heard it come on the radio either. It reminded me of this song that I REALLY enjoy!!

Hey, I just heard something else that may be a compromise between our tastes. Have you heard of Alter Bridge? Check it out.

That Alter Bridge song is pretty good. I like them.

1a. I love this song:

1b. And even better (if you just ignore the Lord of the Rings video, this song has one of the best guitar solos I've ever heard).

2. And you may like this one, weird video, but great song. I saw them in concert a few months ago:

Yea, Sister Hazel is pretty good! I enjoy some of their stuff!

The guitar solo in that 2nd one was pretty decent, but the rest of it I really didn't care for. The third on is a lot closer to my tastes; you're right. Still not gonna chase down their album(s), but it would've been pretty cool to see them live!

Talking about great guitar solos (and I could FOR DAYS), if you want to see some amazing guitar work, you HAVE TO check out Joe Satriani - HE IS PHENOMENAL!!
