A List of Favorite Bands

MUSIC

Like many, I love music.  I really can't imagine the world without it. People often ask me who some of my favorite artists and bands are, and what kinds of music I like.  Well, it's pretty difficult for me to come up with a definitive list, but I will try to do my best in that regards.  As for the type of music I like, that's easy, metal and it's infinite variations.  But, I'm not the typical listener who enjoys one genre and refuses to listen to any other style.  While there are some styles I really don't get into, I can at least, in most cases, appreciate the work that went into the creation process, especially in regards to lyrics. So, to be completely fair, I put together a top 50 list.

That all said, here's a list of some of my favorite bands, in no particular order.  If you like metal, which most of these bands/artists will be categorized in, I definitely urge you to check them out, as while some are more well-known than others, there certainly are a few bands here that I'm pretty sure the majority of readers probably never heard of before.  That, in itself, is something that I love coming across, a band or an album from an artist I've never heard of, where I instantly am drawn in completely and become floored by this previously unfound brilliance.
