Linkin Park is amazing. Such emotion writhing in both the music and lyrics. The synergy with the vocals and tempo. They get a lot of slack, some claim they only have one song. My complaint is there albums and songs are too damned short, the last album was a whopping 36 minutes and they filled the rest of the CD with web crap, videos and other useless garbage. I wonder how long they play for in concert.
Chris Cornell is awesome, his voice is so distinct. When I first heard Audioslave, I thought to myself, - didn't soundgarden break up? Always listening for anything new by them.
Queens of the StoneAge are great too, I thought that was a Dave Grohl side project, but he is not in it. lol
And Jet rocks too, don't know if they are metal though.
