Thread: what bands do you really love

^Have you heard Wilson's solo disc Insurgentes? Also very good. PT are a real talent, and I think they deserve a bigger following than they have.

I heard two of my other favourite bands Opeth and Dream Theater raving about them so I picked up Fear of A Blank Planet last year. Can't believe I overlooked them so long. Now I can't get enough, and own all their albums. I really love Spocks Beard and Rush, too, so your theory seems to be correct! I actually discovered Porcupine Tree a couple of years ago...

If you like Owl City, have you heard the Postal Service, the band they're imitating ?

I have to say, I am very fond of the Postal Service. Give Up meant a lot to me when it came out. I'm not much of a fan of Death Cab, though; I like only a couple of their songs. The Owl City song is listenable, but it is hard to get over how...

If you guys like this thread, you might like the thread down in Misc, where you can create your own band name/album name/album cover using some random selection. It's been a hell of a lot of fun and very addictive.
