What can i say, I've never been one for mainstream music. I'm an elitist in every other aspect of my life, so why would music be any different? ;)

Ya think? :D

trust me, it's even worse when you clean up this place. The posters may change, but the garbage doesn't.

Good thing that's also true for the fun stuff like this. The forums can be a great place to discover new bands.

So do you just have the answers to topics like these saved on your desktop for easy copy and paste ?

[PJudge]

Hmm, if i think about it:

1.Mötley Crüe
2. Guns N' Roses (Classic)
3. Aerosmith
4. Ozzy Osbourne
5. ZZ Top
6. Slash's Snakepit
7. No Doubt
8. Black Label Society
9. Iron Maiden
10. Poison

It's pretty difficult to choose them actually, not even sure Poison can go there, but i really can't think of another band i like! I'll think of a better one later

[Der_Lex]

So do you just have the answers to topics like these saved on your desktop for easy copy and paste ?

One would think a lazy person like me would do that, but no. IN part because I like to put a little creativity and/or thought into most of my posts, but also because lists like this are subject to change for me. For example, a month ago Stream of Passion probably wouldn't have been in my top ten because they only had their debut album out. Their brilliant second album kicked them up a notch for me, though.
