Your Most Inspirational Band and why?

hey guys,

lets talk abt the bands you like, and the band who was very inspirational for you, so much dat u felt dat u shud pick up guitars and start learning stuff and enjoy the magic of rock!

well, my most inspirational band is not surprising.....

its metallica, yes, my fav. band is slayer...but metallica is where i really started enjoying the music of metal or rock or watever and went more deep for other bands. why its inspirational for me....coz i feel their songs have lot of substance and the music they have created is so unique and appealing, something, which really made me crazy for this kinda music and inspired me enuff to save money and buy a guitars and start rocking!


as they say....black sabbath created metal and metallica perfected it!...now metallica is a different story...i know they suck, but we cannot forget the music they have created.

rock on guys. :rock:

 

hey fictional,,this topic had already started in past...so check out this link..

oh, thanx for the info dude.

 

Picked up the guitar after watching GNR. I used to draw my inspiration from Metallica, but now Yngwie is my idol.

 

@fictional_real: Saying Metallica perfected metal is ridiculous. Metallica do not even come close to perfecting metal. If anyone perfected the wicked metal distortion that Black Sabbath originally created, guitar downtuning and the now staple twin guitar attack , it would have to be Judas Priest with their epic 'Sad Wings Of Destiny' in 1976 and 'Stained Class' 2 years later. (almost 7 years before Metallica put out their first record).

But back on-topic, the band that inspires me the most is Death.

 

for me the craze for rock music started with smoke on the water !!
this was the song that got me intersted and as i heared more and more bands
judas priest was and still is my inspiration !! PAINKILLER album the best heavy metal album of allll time !!!

 

COB, Pantera and DT..

mandolin u srinivas when i was 9

then Van halen and other hair bands of the 80s skid row motley crue kiss bon jovi
then discovered older nwobhm bands then was big time metallica fan till the black album then some grunge soundarden pearljam and nirvana for a while and since then totally confused without any interest in newer bands..

but yea mandolin srinivas started it all for me

 

Jimmi Page and Led Zeppelin initiated my love for music and guitars when I was 10 or 11. Blind Guardian (especially Andre Olbrich) and Iron Maiden have played a big part in infuencing me. Currently, Steve Vai is my biggest motivator.

 

hmmm....junoon, silk route, led zepplin, eric clapton, lucky ali,,.....

 

When i was young, It was Rush, Pink Floyd and Simon Garfunkel..

 

EUROPE(especially the "superstitious" song), Scorpions, Simon and Garfunkel Steve Vai and Satriani.......

 

Heyya..
Lemme start by sayin that it was Black Sabbath that actually inspired me to listen to other metal bands..but what induced me into poetry was JD Morrisson..and Bob Dylan..and I dunno if I'm permitted to write abt another thread(I think not,but some vague professor told me abt risks and profits)but I rem some1 writing abt Black Sabbath fading out!! I'll tell you what man..after Ozzy, Sabbath went out like a light..pfft!!OK there was a 'resurrection' of sorts when Dio came in..but they DID NOT FADE AWAY!!
NEhoo...no one perfected metal..who knows what metal sounds like perfect?? Music and art on the whole is something that cannot be perfected man..there's always room for improvement..like humans!!

I draw inspiration from Megadeth and Tool. Yes, they are totally different, but i like their music a lot. And i would personaly love to sound like either.

 

@death metal fan.....sorry for the late reply.

but i believe which band perfected the metal in rock history depends on ur perspective...

i have heard lot of other bands... but wat i believe is metallica is the one who really showed the substance and deep attitude which metal has....

wat you are saying might be on technical terms...which i am not talking abt.

 

hey my inspirational Rock band is
LED ZEPPELIN
cuz they were first ones who used the proper Rock instuments for the first time in history
theycombined modern Drum sequences with Metal Lead and Folk music
They invented The Modern 4-STRING stell bass guitar
thats y they were palced at First position By Recording association of USA in Rock music and Overall at second (beatles are at 1st)

Led Zep is the best

 

@ Tejas, YOu mean to say you were all about MEgadeth at age 7??

 

^No, but i picked up my guitar at 16, so yeah, and that time, i was all about Megadeth.

 

hey guys....by the way, i just wanted to tell ya (if ya dont know) ....dat the band "the doors" never had a bass guitarist in there band....
