What are your favorite bands/songs to rock out to?
 
So what are they? Everyone has their favorite bands and such, but not always are they the best to "rock out to." The Aquabats are not usually rock-outtable but they are still awesome nonetheless.



For those of you who are so uneducated as to not know what "rocking out" is, it is when, at the climax points of a ridiculously awesome song, you jump off of an elevated object (IE a chair, table, bed, or even a bunk bed if you're really hardXcore) and while doing so, madly strumming your air guitar. Of course there is also the optional head banging and mouthing of the lyrics.

I would have to say Minibosses when they either play the Mega Man 2's Boss battle music or Mega Man 2's Wily Stage.

It gets to the point where I'm throwing myself into walls and jumping off my couch flipping out on my air guitar.

You all need to get into a little Aussie band known as Powderfinger. Their early stuff is a little 'atmospheric' but their latest albumn Vulture Street simply pumps. It's the sort of music where you sit there, clench your fist and go "yeah, that rocks" GO THE FINGER! :evilgrin:

Does Lawrence Welk count? "A One and A Two...." :lol:

Well I actually every now and then like to rock out using a real guitar (otherwise if I'm in a certain mood I'll find myself reaching for air-drums while at my pc :P )

I like
- Stockholm Syndrome by Muse (NOT blink182's song of the same name)
- Micro Cuts - Muse
- Can't Get My Head Around You - Offspring
- The Setup - Reel Big Fish
- Suggestion Box - MxPx

prob more but that's all I got so far

I think I'm gonna go with the bands Gob, Weezer, Rhapsody, Luca Turilli, and Chevelle (oh so intense).

Brand New has a few songs worth rocking out to : Quiet Things that No One Ever knows and Guernica are my favorites.

My personal current favorite right now is Cochise by Audioslave. Audioslave is so awesome.

Barkworm 03-03-2004 08:00 AM

Metallica, Queens of the Stone Age

Voltron 03-03-2004 08:32 AM

Meatloaf, War, Minibosses,

damnhooligan 03-03-2004 09:23 AM

I have the tendency to rock out to James Muthaf*ckin' Brown.

Well, okay... it's more like funkin' out. Close, only it uses far more pelvis.

Dr. Doom 03-03-2004 11:15 AM

Power Metal, dammit. The more powerful the better. I hafta say that for getting pumped up, there's nothing better than Manowar. Yeah, ok, they're songs are kinda corny and lyrically aren't very diverse or unique, but it's good music.

raphael_is_cool 03-03-2004 01:14 PM

I tell you a good song to rock out to

The intro bit of Holy Wars by Megadeth (although the Rx Bandits cover is better I think...to me)

Nirvana? I'm trying to say that they're bad, but kids nowadays think that it's 'cool' to like them.
