Nickleback is good. Burn it to the ground=best song ever

I'm a music elitist in the entire sense of the word... So, I may be biased, but I think Nickelback is amongst the worst bands out there- they are just so uncreative and their lyrics are vile. Also, Kroeger needs a better haircut. I even wrote an essay about how much I dislike them for my Advanced Writing class.

I don't like mainstream music though, at all, so it's kind of hard for me to see much in any popular bands. However, I don't see much of anything in Nickelback.

Just my taste.

A few of my favorite bands are:

Ensiferum, Wintersun, Eluvium, Death Cab for Cutie, Unwed Sailor, Pedro the Lion, The Postal Service, Brandon Flowers/The Killers, Hammock, Stars of the Lid, Explosions in the Sky, Mogwai, Damien Jurado, Minus the Bear, A Great Big Pile of Leaves, Low, Juno, The Fray, Sondre Lerche, Balmorhea, Mice Parade, Starr Parodi, Sigur Ros, Precious Fathers, Mount Eerie, Early Day Miners, The Dead Texan, Drudkh, El Ten Eleven.

I'm sure I'm forgetting some, but that is the majority of what I listen to!
Most things ambient, if it's done well, and most things post-rock. But Scandinavian metal will always be close to my heart, as well as the sweet and bitter lyrics of Ben Gibbard, and the style and cleanness of Brandon Flowers.

Slint, Spiderland (FULL ALBUM) - YouTube

That, despite all the music I love, is my all time favorite album and one of my most prized possessions.

 

[PaxThroughX]

Wow!!!!! that is an awesome band!! reminds me of nirvana too and love the guitar and the instruments tied all together

 

[HarborOrange]

They were a truly influential band- they invented post-rock practically... I mean, Talk Talk did sort of formulate the new genre, but Slint and Godspeed You! Black Emperor perfected the genre. What's characteristic about Slint, and all post-rock, is the amount of instrumentation used and the very heavy reliance upon dynamics.

Lol, I never got into Nirvana much... but I do know that Earth collaborated with Cobain while he was around. Slint broke up in '91 though, so they're an old band.
