Cool

Thinking of buying myself a little pressie for Christmas so looking for nominations.

I reckon these three are up there for 2003:

Audioslave - Audioslave
The Darkness - Permission to Land
HIM - Love Metal


Also rans - Evanescence, Sepultura, Ozzy, and Muse (close but no cigar).

HIM and Muse are two VERY VERY good albums

Audioslave is ok, I got bored of this one a bit too quick really.

Janes Addiction - Strays
Muse - Absolution


Agree with the comments on the Darkness, totally played to death on Xfm had more than enough, a novelty group who's novelty has worn off!

A couple of good suggestions there - just to clarify, I have the Darkness, Audioslave and HIM albums so I was looking for more "goodies"

Kings of Leon I've heard good things about

QOTSA I'm not sure about - bought their first and only played it half a dozen times before I got bored with it

Rob Zombie is prolly a good choice

Jet I've not heard of so will check it out

Still like the Darkness, guess the French/Swiss haven't picked up on them enough yet to play them to overkill (don't think much of the Xmas single though, but like the album).

What's the take on the White Stripes "Elephant" album? The videos I've seen are okay...

It's in my xmas stocking on DVD.

Get it and enjoy.

Evanescence ? Anyone heard their latest single, utter drivel. The Darkness or Kings of Leon would get my vote.

As for Nickleback, I think I've gone off them a bit, all the songs seem to sound the same? Yeah, I know, same singer but still...

AFI - 'Sing The Sorrow'
Type O Negative - 'Life is Killing Me'
Sevendust - 'Seasons'

Nobody mentioned Metallica 'St Anger' yet?! Now, there's a suprise!

IMO, The Darkness is utter tripe and Nickleback have only one sound. Evanescence was let down by songs that only had one tempo, moments of genius for sure but more variation needed on the next release.

Cheers

Cool

St. Anger ? Bought it, played maybe 8 tracks, took it off again and have only played the first two tracks anytime since.

Type O Negative, have all their albums and the last one was a real dissappointment so wouldn't get my vote - bring back the sound and attitude they had on Bloody Kisses !
