Favorite "R" Band

[metalmaniac777]

Ra-ra-ra!!! We've come to the "R"s! Lots of great choices and lots of goodies got left off, so feel free to write 'em in if you don't see your personal fave listed.

 

My vote goes to Kane Roberts. His "Saints & Sinners" CD is melodic hard rock perfection, easily in my top ten favorite albums.

 

So rrrrrrrrrrally 'rrrrrrrrrrrround, boys (and girls), and tell us who gets your motor revvin'.

[aMetalhead1966]

Ratt....

[Jez]

Rush for me, although quite a few others listed I like a lot, except Rockarma of course

[Fat Freddy]

I'm gonna have to go with "other" here... wait, there's no "other" button!! Sonovva...!

 

My picks would be the Ramones, followed closely by Raven.

[Studboy]

Ratt....

 

Yeah, same here, that was an easy choice.

[eaglesfan3000]

Ratt....

 

Yeah, same here, that was an easy choice.

 

Yes RATT.

[martinsane]

Tough choice, but from the "list" Rush by a nose over Ratt.

 

"R" faves include: Riot, Roxy Blue, Roughhouse, Reverend, Rumbledog, Rough Cutt, Riverdogs, Raging Slab...

 

And honorable mention from the list: Ra. Great band.

This one was a really hard vote. There are a bunch of bands here that have one amazing CD:

 

Kane Roberts - 'Saints and Sinners'

Ratt - 'Detonator'

Roxxi - 'Drive it to ya hard'

Roxx Gang - 'Things you've never done before'

Rock Candy - 'Sucker for a pretty face'

 

I chose Kane Roberts, but in hindsight I think I should have gone with Ratt, as they have the one amazing CD, plus 4 other excellent ones. But damn 'Saints and sinners' is just a death-defyingly awesome album...

[Metal T]

Ratt....

 

Ditto-RATT all the way..Too bad Roxx Gang only put out one album worth a sh*t.

[Dead Planet]

A lot of good bands listed but had to go with Rainbow who have had a number of excellent releases over the years.....

[Nick C]

Rush fer me.....although I guess my fave R band is either Red Rider, Riot or Ramones

 

Oh yeah and RRRRRR Matey!!

[Geoff]

I knew Mark had let me down again, so I just went to see the main site to find out what band I had a niggling feeling was being excluded here...

 

ROXUS!!!

 

And more bands with one amazing CD but nothing else:

 

Rain - 'House of dreams' (and 'Stronger' is okay)

Raine

Randsom - 'Trouble in paradise'

 

Plus, Resltless' 'Alone in the dark' is pretty cool.

 

But what about ROXUS??!!!

From experience Roxus doesnt seem to be as popular overseas or have the stature that we hold it too..

 

Some goodies are Roxus, Rain, ROb Rock, Roadhouse....

 

not sure what my #1 is...

prob Roxus

[heaven&hell]

Very tough decision on this one but my vote goes with Rainbow with RATT a very very close second.

Rockarma, Roxy Blue, Rush, Roxxi, David Readman and Kane Roberts kick ass too.

I knew Mark had let me down again...what about ROXUS??!!

Roxus who?

 

Oh, you mean that overhyped, overrated, generic-as-all-get-out melodic rock band? That Roxus? The hell with them, they don't deserve to be on this list. I would have listed Rascal Flats before listing Roxus.

 

Hope that clears things up for ya.

See what i mean Geoff?

[Jez]

Geoff - Never asked you before, but do you like any of Rush's stuff? or have you not heard that much? - I expect a big NO and a kick in the bollox in reply, but always wondered.

Geoff liking Rush would shock me.

Goodbye, Mark. This is our last communication.

I've heard and owned a few Rush CDs and tapes ('Presto' still sits in my collection of tapes I think). None lasted more than a single listen. Not a fan and sorry to say mate, but if you were close by my foot would have attacked your bollocks for the insinuation that I may like some of their material.

Is that because Rush are good?

That's too bad. I'm currently writing a porn script with you in mind for the lead role. Guess I'll have to find someone else...

Matt, can you tell Mark I am still interested in his porn script but all negotiations will be done through my agent.
