Yup, there it is..

[Grey Wolf]

I listen to Bon Jovi. Just because their early albums are older than me is not a legit point.

[wEvil]

but the fact that he's a may moon is.

j/k

Tech-Industrial stuff is the way to go.

To say I cant stand 'metal' would be wrong..but I certainly don't like listening to it one bit.

[Pez]

Here are some bands that don't sell millions of copys of their records but are ten times better than Limp Bizkit and all the other ****ty Limp clones. [EDIT]Might add that is IMHO  [EDIT]

Pop/Rock:
Pixies
Frank Black and the Catholics

Stoner rock:
Fu Manchu
Nebula
Queens of the stone age
Kyuss

invert that and you have what I think   (and add Hip Hop to tech-industrial).
Anyway Wevil, if you call bon jovi metal, I personnaly come to your home and torture you till you retract what you said  

[joek]

Anything from Smashing Pumpkins
Anything from HUM (remember them? they had a one time hit with Stars ("she thinks she missed the train to mars, she's out back counting stars"), HUM is really good as the music rocks and they lyrics are mysterious, almost sci-fi-ish).
[south florida pimp] Nonpoint [/south florida pimp]
Tanya Donelly (and/or Belly)

Other than that... I need new music.

Joe.

Did it ever occur to you that they don't sell millions of records because they're crap? Also, name that include the word Queen invoke images of homosexuality and transvetitism, especially in predominantly male groups. This is problem for some people. (   )

[CP5670]

Hehe I pretty much only like soundtracks from computer games; FS1, FS2, Deus Ex and a few others have very good music IMHO.

Not to me.  Plenty of crap bands/pop groups sell many records in spite of crapness - why should it be a barrier to success?

Good band/album list (27/12/01)

(all Indie)

Starsailor - Love is Here
The Charlatans - Tellin' Stories, Wonderland, Us and Us Only

Paul Weller - Wild Wild Wood, Heavy Soul, Days of Speed (live album   )

Ocean Colour Scene - Mosely Shoals (3rd best album of the 90's IMHO), Marchin' Already, One from the Modern

The Verve - Urban Hymns (the album of the last decade), Northern Soul (toally underrated)

Coldplay - Parachutes (2nd best album of the 90's)

The Seahorses - do it yourself

Soulwax - Much Against Everyones advice

The stone Roses  - Second coming

Supergrass - In it for the Money, Untitled (aka Supergrass)

Ian Brown - Golden Greats, Music of the Spheres

I'd advise using a Napster-esque program to dL a track before deciding what to buy (if any), though.

I think I was misunderstood. I don't particularly care what people listen to (as long as it's not Westlife). The simple fact is that they don't sell millions because people don't like their music and seen as the meaning of 'crap' is determined by current trends, saying that a low selling type of music is crap is correct regardless of presonal preference (unless you take it as a personal view, which isn't how I meant it).

On a seperate note: Beethovens 5th, the Fur Elise and the William Tell Overture are all good choices.

Why these bands don't sell millions of records have many different factors. First of all some of these bands are not around anymore (Pixies and Kyuss). Secondly none of these bands where part of a big trend plus none of these bands are on a major label.

But I don't care if they don't sell millions of records and just because a band sells millions of records that automaticlly (sp) doesn't make them to **** . Hell, I have several records from band that have sold millions of record. I think people should listen to whatever they want, but if you look a farther than the top20 list you can find really good music.

You're welcome, but I must add that - IMHO - only their first album rocked. The rest were ok, but nowhere near the quality that they are capable of.  

I've recently discovered Jimmy Eat World; their Sweetness song is cool.
