I thought i already posted on this thread, but i guess not.
My most influential bands are:
Nine Inch Nails
Tool
The Mars Volta (most underrated band of the millenium !)
Rage Against the Machine/Audioslave
Strapping Young Lad (Canadian metal at it's best !)
Soulfly
Opeth
Fear Factory
Pantera
Megadeth
Neil Young
Rush
Yes
Led Zeppelin
Marilyn Manson
But even that list doesnt do my musical tastes justice, its just stuff that i listen to probably most out of anything.

i really like the grunge era and my favorite band is Pearl Jam, the only band that their music really touches me.
Hey man, I was exactly the same!! went off them a bit after the new album came out but my PJ obsession lasted for years. I live in the UK and hardly anyone has heard of them here which is a shame.
I always thought Vitalogy/no code were the best, but all their albums are pretty amazing. No other band has ever matched PJ for me.

It's not a great way for me to connect with people, no one knows what the hell I'm talking about when I tell them what music I'm into, or anything else I'm into for that matter. So I don't bother, it's pointless.

I know what you mean. if you go to last.fm you can probably find some new music similar to the artists you like..also I've found alternative radio stations a good way to find decent new music. I think pre-2000 music was much better on the whole though.
i would like to know local bands from all sort of countries that plays rock and are famous in their own country, can anyone suggest me good bands?
i am from israel and i recommend:
- Hayehudim (does great rock, very emotional)
- Monica Sex (sounds like British rock bands but very original and creative)
- Hadag Nahas (does excellent Funk music combined with hip-hop)
- Infected Mushroom (i guess most of you know them because they are famous world wide, they do AMAZING electronic music, very recommended)
those are famous bands from israel, i would like to know famous bands from other countries

'cause it's a game we gotta lose,
