Music Suggestions?

[Dr. Rated-R]

I like:

-Soundgarden

-Audioslave

-Temple of the Dog

-Chris Cornell

-Tool

-A Perfect Circle

-Nine Inch Nails

-Incubus

-Red Hot Chili Peppers

-Foo Fighters

-Alice In Chains

-Pearl Jam

-Nirvana

-Goo Goo Dolls

-Candlebox

-The Mars Volta

-Jeff Buckley

-Rage Against The Machine

-Thornley

-System of a Down

-Dimmu Borgir

-Lamb of God

-Killswitch Engage

-Fozzy

-The Beatles

-The Who

-The Doors

Those are just a few of my favorites. Yeah, anyways, name some bands that I would probably like because I like bands from the aforementioned. I also need some suggestions of politically inspired rap music. It doesn't matter who does it, as long as it's good.

EDIT - Don't hold back with your suggestions. I've gotten a new computer with 80GB of hard drive space (as opposed to the 19GB I was used to), and as such am willing to download just about anything.

You seem to have a wide taste in music, and I have been meaning to give this to someone in a music suggestion thread... perhaps try a little bit of Blue Rodeo? I can name the following songs for you to try:

Bulletproof

Somebody Waits

Rain Down On Me

If you like and want more, just give me a holla holla.

If you like Jeff Buckley, check out George. The male vocalist is about as close as I've ever heard a guy get to emulating Buckley's voice. The girl has an amazing voice too. Check out 'Bastard Sun' for a demo of the male vocalist's voice.

Asian Dub Foundation.

They're a group of Asian British Rappers. They supported Rage Against The Machine a bunch of times, they're really good.

[Guest burton420]

If you want politically inspired rap, look no furhter than towards....Public Enemy.

[Hellfire]

Political Rap = Immortal Technique. Seriously, if you want good rap, and political rap, it's doubtful you can get any better than that.

[Guest bukkake]

Faith No More. Primus. Queens Of The Dead(check out Songs For The Dead). The Smashing Pumpkins. Maybe some Deftones.

[SimpRgr8]

I say you should check out the Beastie Boys, Run DMC or Misfits.

[Farmer Reil]

Dragonforce.

Nothing to do with any band you listed, but it wouldn't be a music suggestion thread if I didn't mention them, would it?

House of Lords might also be worth checking out if you like the Goo's, and Megadeth are conspicuous in their absence from that list

[VerbalPuke]

Well, since you're open to any suggestion then I'm going to throw out a few different things. I'll try and keep it in line with stuff that you might enjoy.

Roky Erikson and the 13th Floor Elevators - Good psychedelic rock from the 60s. Roky did alot of good things throughout his career, their first album is probably the best. It is called the "Psychedelic sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators".

Minutemen - Good funk rock, albeit they were a huge part of the mid 80s punk scene. Check out their stuff from "Double Nickels on the Dime".

[Gene Kiniski]

Keith, you are the man - I check out Asian Dub Foundation and they are the shit.
