So impossible, but if I had to compile a list, perhaps a little like this-

 

Treat

Harem Scarem

LeBrock

Fate

Vain

Danger Danger

Pretty Maids

Poison

Bonfire

Midnite City

 

My problem is that so many of my all-time favourite albums (Blue Tears, Roxus, Hotboy, Bangalore Choir, Attraction, Intuition, Aviator, Masquerade, Zero, Blue Blud etc.) are all one-offs, so it's very tricky separating favourite bands from favourite albums. But the above is a rough guess.

This is tough as things have changed a bit over the years but as of right now I'd say (not really in a particular order): 

1.  Def Leppard

2.  H.E.A.T 

3.  Warrant

4.  Poison

5.  Midnite City

6.  Crazy Lixx

7.  Guns N Roses

8.  Eclipse

9.  Motley Crue

10. Kissin' Dynamite

Honorable mention:  Shiraz Lane, Pretty Maids, Tesla

Bon Jovi is one I struggled with.   They probably should be on the list but I've despised their past 15-20 years so much and I listen to them so little now that I couldn't do it.

 A couple more lists with a NFO/Lordi combo. Nice. 

Are you guys feeling Soilwork at all? I highly recommend their Verkligheten album.

I think the key to this fun question is right now.....not all-time, ever.  

For me:

1.  Dirty Honey

2. The Pretty Reckless

3. Judas Priest (current tour is great)

4. Halestorm

5. Gonna cheat a bit....Crazy Lixx, H.E.A.T., Eclipse, W.E.T., Kissin' Dynamite (ties, others I would put here too; proudly waving the 80s hard rock/metal flag, heck yeah!)

6. Def Leppard (they keep plugging away and staying in the spotlight)

7. Cheap Trick (and they are still putting out new music, very impressive)

8. Mammoth WVH (Wolfgang's the real deal)

9. Thunder (an amazing career, and they never get due credit; heck, they just put out a new album)

10. AC/DC (Power Up came out when we needed rock the most!)

(and then any projects involving Sammy Hagar, George Lynch, Zakk Wylde, Jeff Scot Soto, Deen Castronovo, and/or Doug Aldrich)

My LEAST favorite right now.....Bon Jovi.....listening to JBJ on tour right now is really hard to do. And the current lineup is a shell of the band we knew and loved.

And to add, totally forgot.....and anything Myles Kennedy is involved in, this guy is super-talented.

Soilwork are a bit hit and miss, but the 'Verkligheten' disc is great and definitely my favourite they have done thus far

    • I to used see them a few times at the Middle as well. With local chapter of the Hells Angels at front bar. Not much a Screaming Jets fan, so I didn't watch them with Gleeson' The guy in front now, was their recent drummer before they put out in front Those first five albums are classics
    • My brother was playing some of this guy's stuff a few months ago. I only now got around to checking it out for myself. Pretty fuckin' good!
    • Seems these guys are no more   https://sleazeroxx.com/r-i-p-cobrakill-lead-guitarist-randy-white-announces-band-no-longer-exists/
    • I grew up listening to Cuntry, and have kinda wanted to get back into it. But not the typical New Cuntry shit. So I'll give this a try. 
    • I always forget about this band, and then I listen to them and am like, "Oh, yeah, they're good!" And then forget about them for another year. 
    • I was a pretty big fan. Nature Of The Beast is a killer song. Saw them with Dave Gleeson from the Screaming Jets singing and he did an amazing job, but pretty sure they have a new singer now  I recently went through the two most recent albums before this one and there were a couple of ok tracks, but mostly mid. Fun fact: I saw the Angels a couple of years before Doc died at the Middle hotel in Ferntree Gully and they seemed to hate each other. Pretty sure Doc said nothing to the crowd all night. Fun fact 2: when they were building the transit bar in Melbourne, a mate and I found a service elevator that went to the roof, which was under construction. After peeing off the roof, which is always fun, we realised that we could clearly hear the music 5 or 6 floors below from a DJ I think. He was playing Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again. We started yelling down the No Way Get Fucked, Fuck Off bit thinking we were hilarious. Then soon we noticed people looking up, and for some reason they seemed to be clearly hearing us. Another mate then called us to tell us security were on the way up the stairs so we took the service elevator down and managed to laugh it off. Stoopid drunk story I guess, but fun days.
    • Cheeky, getting your artwork in there. I wonder how you did that.  I like the vocal track on #1 and that'd be my pick. I personally don't dig the female versions of songs, because I'm not a female (yet?) and as these are songs written by ourselves I personally feel the best interpretation is an AI dude voice taking the place of your dude voice. 
    • Yeah, that's great but this is obviously an accomplished musician probably completely in control of this output... not done with Suno, I'd bet. There's definitely dudes out there who are perfectly capable of doing their own music, like this dude, but for whatever reason might not be able to put a project together, again, for whatever reason... but this definitely feels a lot more like AI feeling in the missing gaps for someone otherwise in complete control of what he wants.  Either way, it is very cool indeed.  As Darkstone says, I'm not sure paying is the way to get the best results. I'm also not saying it isn't, especially with other platforms that are not Suno. I think already knowing what you're doing, musically, is the best way to get best results, personally. Suno, for example, is just perfect for someone who might enjoy writing lyrics but is not in any way shape or form an accomplished (or even adequate, lol) musician.  But yeah, it's pretty cool for some fun. I'm not sure if you checked out my links above. Keeping them pretty quiet due to lyrical content, lol, but you might dig some of the stuff in my links. 'As the moment passes by' and 'I'll wait for you' are two of my personal faves. Along with 'Faith to fall.'
    • Yeah, musically it's what you want, but vocally... Maybe Alex should take some vocal lessons from Ken Tamplin. ;}
    • Your Eyes - Darkstone (2024) Two versions of my song number 6     https://suno.com/song/e8c1e85b-21ee-4d35-a64b-e786f00944d2   https://suno.com/song/9144c77a-bd7c-49c1-9508-f724d0832fdb
