So I've been trying out some bands I never really liked and decided to give them a fair chance. So far I've tried 2 bands and I'm looking to explore more. Anyone have a recommendation?
The 2 ive given a fair chance is Guns n Roses and i only liked their song welcome to the jungle.
The other is The Used and I think they suck so bad I can't even imagine how they got popular and I can see why all the kids are emo listening to that crap because they are trying to fit in with the emo kids, why i dont know and then when they start listening to that it sucks so bad and they cant bring themselves to leave mainstream so they really do turn emo listening to crap like that.
So, anyone able to recommend a good band?

| | | | Well going by the information you've given here, I can gather that you prefer hit songs played by bands that are on every classic rock radio station.
I'd say start there. |

EDIT: Apparently it's just a cover band...
