Top ten Favorite Bands/ Artists

[FlawedCoil82]

Here are my current top ten favorite modern rock bands. I'm posting a one song Youtube link for each band so people can get a taste for them. However, it doesn't mean these are my top favorite songs from each band.

WITHIN TEMPTATION:
This is my top favorite female fronted band from The Netherlands. I love Sharon Den Adel's voice and the epic orchestras/choirs..

FLAW:
Chris Volz is my top favorite male vocalist (he also fronted Five Bolt Main). Their first two major label releases were pure gold. I've met them as well.

THE PANIC DIVISION:
This band blends an 80's new wave keyboard sound with modern rock. I love them because they are so different than most modern bands.

LACUNA COIL:
This Italian band was (at one time) a great gothic/doom rock inspired band with both female/male vocals.

KATATONIA:
This fantastic Swedish doom rock band has very dark, atmospheric (almost Tool-like) sound with all haunting, melodic vocals.

TOOL:
I love this band's dark (but very melodic) style. Maynard James Keenan is another favorite vocalist of mine. He fronts A Perfect Circle and Puscifer as well.

LUNATICA:
This is another female fronted symphonic metal band that I love. Great drummer and guitarist.

BREAKING BENJAMIN:
A rather well known mainstream hard rock band.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7ra7xht9ec

EVANESCENCE:
Another very well known female fronted band fronted by Amy Lee.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCI99p02ayU

RED:
This is my top favorite Christian rock band. They have a rather mainstream sound. This partical song reminds me of Linkin Park.

Well anyways that's all for now.

3. Rush
4. Ra
5. Interpol
6. The Doors

I like classic rock, not the mainstream puke that people listen to everyday puke 8 billion times everyday. I like some death metal, but it's a rarity for me to actually like it much more than a 5/10
