Interesting choice of bands there Sasha, A Perfect Circle has some great lyrics.
Forgot to add Gavin Degraw and Teddy Geiger on my list."We Belong Together" and "For You I Will" by both of them respectively are crap compared to their other stuff, especially Gavin Degraw.. their too "teen love" for me, but they both have great voices. If anyone is into John Mayer or even Jason Mraz, check out those other two .

I'll try to get some of my tunes up here once I get the extra cash to get into the studio. Here's a good short list of some of my top bands and artists along with some links for listening pleasure.
Also Coldplay, but only before X&Y. I think that album is crap sorry, and I wasn't much of a fan of AROBTTH either. It was basically all Blue Room and Parachutes for me. Vitalic has some really vicious tunes, the only techno artist I'll give a listen to because he has nothing but pure heart for his music, it's insane especially live. The crowds are not like any other techno artist can take in. Venus is just pure genius; every album is entirly different than the previous with the exceptions of their violin work, unique build up, and eerie sounds using a musical saw, xylophone or other instruments. Can't even begin to explain Half Asleep's cultic originality.
Metallica (everything pre St. Anger...but mostly Black Album and earlier)
RCHP
3 Doors Down
The Offspring
Maroon 5
Rise Against
Linkin Park
Lostprophets
Staind
Sinch
Hurt
Funeral for a Friend
Nickelback (much more appreciation for these guys after seein em live)
Three Days Grace
Trapt

Yeah you can't get some fans to change their minds about them, it's like they don't want to give up on them. I don't blame them after the first albums. My girlfriend and I were like that too with AROBTTH and then when the new album hit we were devastated. Fact is Coldplay are really just the same ol' same now with nothing inspirational to feed off of.
That's why I turn to Venus now, that's some genius material with the vast changes between heavy tunes, orchestra, and cult. If you want you can check their new and only video at the bottom of the page - http://venusmusic.be/venus_news.php
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting TheFreshPrince:</div><div class="quote_post">I'll have to check em out, btw where are they from?</div>
They're from Belgium, they won't release albums in North America but I've heard a song of their's during the end sequence of the film Immortal by Enki Bilal. People can rent or buy that in the US/Canada now I'm sure. Their albums can't be found in stores in North America and sadly everyone would have to order from Europe. You know how that can be pricy for International shipping too.
Not sure if any MP3 websites carry their music either.
