9 AnswersRodents1 decade agoI'm not a Muse fan, but...?
The riff to Supermassive Black Hole is great. I don't even like the whole song, because I stand by what I've always said about Muse - the singer's voice is too nasal. But damn, that song has a great riff. Anyone agree?

2 AnswersCell Phones & Plans1 decade agoWhat song made your favorite band your favorite band?
I used to be one of those people who didn't believe in favorite bands, but rather a handful of bands that I loved, but then I heard a succession of songs by Guns N' Roses that catapulted them into the #1 spot. I owned more music by them than any other band, and I enjoyed it the most.
They were "Since I Don't Have You," "Estranged," and "Don't Damn Me."
By the way... why does Yahoo care how much punctuation I have? Is proper grammar out of style?

6 AnswersOther - Television1 decade agoBand's that you don't like because you shouldn't?
So the other day I was reading a comment on here by a user saying that most people actually liked Death Magnetic, they just bash on it because they think they're "not supposed to like new Metallica stuff."
It got me wondering... were there any bands that you heard a song or two by that you actually /liked/ the sound of, but don't listen to because they aren't respected around here / in general?
