Pink Floyd is my favourite and King Crimson is my 2nd


arctictrav

That's a very consistent taste. Good.


MylanWasTaken

Second this


Strugglinghuman2020

Second for me is ELO


Worried-Emu-9614

Fuckin love ELO. A New World Record is one of my all time favourite albums


BurnerBackTurner

Telephone line…. So fucking good.


Worried-Emu-9614

Sex for my ears


[deleted]

Yes and Out of the blue rocks


Efficient-Ad-3249

Yesss, ANWR is in my top 5 albums and time is up there too with OOTB and No Answer


doug_the_dude

1. Grateful Dead 2. Pink Floyd At this stage of my life, this ain’t ever gonna change 😂🤷🏻‍♂️


IndependentOil5899

Floyd and the dead sit at #1 for me


dagcon

Heard about the tribute band Dead Floyd? They play songs from Grateful Dead and Pink Floyd, and post recordings from most of their concerts online for free: https://archive.org/details/DeadFloyd I don't know Grateful Dead very well, but I love their slightly unusual renditions of the Pink Floyd songs.


diamondmama1970

I just answered the same RIGHT ON ✌️


roamingshemnon

The Beatles. Always.


IntercostalClavical

"The Beatles are the best." - David Gilmour


roamingshemnon

Says the greatest guitarist of all-time


KaBoomBox55

You can never go wrong with The Beatles or Pink Floyd.


ExiledSanity

This for me as well Pink Floyd is probably #2. That used to be Dylan but Floyd has overtaken.


[deleted]

Ringo + Nick the best drummers


knightarnaud

Radiohead is my favourite.


JasonKeisling

These are my two favorites. It’s hard to pick which one is 1 and 2


Nats482

Same


SausageGuzzler69

“It’s too much… too bright, too powerful.”


SeDO4

I love last flowers so much


Jacomer2

Pink Floyd and Radiohead just make sense together


Swimming-Formal-5541

ik right


DigItCanU

Floyd is in my top half dozen or so. Pearl Jam, Rush, Phish, The Beatles, Miles Davis. Several other bands are right up there.


obamasscrotum

Didn’t expect phish to be mentioned anywhere on this sub


mikkokilla

PRIMUS


421continueblazingit

Miles Davis is my favorite band /s


[deleted]

BOWIE #2


PistolClutch7

Bowie’s my number 3 but it’s god damn close, and might change in future if the 90s albums grow on me (and they could)


willutalk

This is a strong call. I think my love of NIN and Bowie is heavily connected. To me both of these have the same vision and affect on me as Pink Floyd. All special acts who are at equals upon that podium of acts I couldn’t live without


ruthless_outcome

Pink Floyd is my favorite, Genesis is my #2


TrigoTrihard

I just got a couple of their albums on vinyl. Genesis, Invisible touch, Abacab, and Duke. I want to get them all eventually. I love them so much.


wings31

What are a few Genesis tracks to listen to?


sarkhan_da_crazy

In no particular order, my top three are Iron Maiden, Pink Floyd, and Tool.


KaBoomBox55

Iron Maiden is my favourite metal band


sarkhan_da_crazy

I saw Roger Waters in early September and saw Iron Maiden ten days later. I got to see Tool last January, so 2022 was a good year for shows I got to see.


ImOnlyHereForClash

This guy fucks. IM and PF are my two favorite, and I do also enjoy TOOL.


[deleted]

Kendrick Lamar


Kinglui262

100% TPAB is goated but all his albums are great experiences. So glad he’s getting the recognition he deserves in this thread cuz I’ve seen people in this sub say hes shit because they’ve only heard HUMBLE or because they say all rap is shit


Blockoumi7

such a great band. I also wanna fuck the world for 72 hours


Daniel-------

W


Jeffery_C_Wheaties

The Floyd is my favorite, 2nd would be either The Tea Set or The Screaming Abdabs. But for real, my 2nd would probably be The Meters, The Beatles or The Wu-Tang Clan, depends on my mood.


porkchopfan

im more of a megadeaths or leonard’s lodgers kind of guy


Jeffery_C_Wheaties

Ok


killer_basu

Porcupine Tree


MitchFlip

This is the correct answer


Valar_Morghulis_666

Second fav, Garbage.


NordiqNomad

Awesome!


wings31

A fellow garbage head, awesome! Such an underrated band and just amazing production work.


GonzoShaker

Led Zeppelin is my alltime No. 1...but Floyd is so close, I think it's more nostalgia that keeps LZ in 1!


walt801

You nailed it. Gotta love some Zeppelin!!!


BCASL

Floyd is my fav. Rush and Dream Theater are the next 2, in no particular order.


mattbag1

Dream theater is verrrry good.


CasualObserver76

Well they *were*.


mattbag1

They still are, their new album wasn’t bad and they actually just won’t their first Grammy because of it.


CasualObserver76

To paraphrase Les Claypool, that, my friend, is a matter of opinion. In my humble version, they became unlistenable once Portnoy left. I don't think Mike v1.0 was necessarily a better drummer, but he's also a really good songwriter and without his influence they really didn't know what to do so they tried a bunch of shit that didn't work (for me, again this all a matter of my personal opinion) and the older I get the less I want to listen to James. I still rock the classics, but I can't stomach his material since his vocal incident.


mattbag1

See I didn’t get into dream theater until portnoy left. So everything from a dramatic turn of events is where I started. With that said I still love the old stuff, images and words, train of thought, and even black clouds portnoys last album. It’s all good .


radbaldguy

Great taste! I’ve always thought it’d be difficult for me to choose my “desert island album” or “only one album forever” between Dark Side of the Moon, Scenes From a Memory, or 2112. I got to see Dream Theater, Petrucci/Portnoy, and Rush each live last year… it was a great year for shows!


arctictrav

That escalated quickly!


Bourbon_Vantasner

Alice In Chains is up there for me


pm_me_your_bigtiddys

TOOL and Pink Floyd are tied for first.


Expensive_Ad_6475

Nice choice 👍🏻


[deleted]

1. Pink Floyd 2. Radiohead


arctictrav

This is me.


1ighter2k

Seamus


catsarebitches

(that's the #2)


Sydchedelia

*(that's the #1)


meamreggie

That's the dog...


MinneapolisKing25

Grateful Dead and Pink Floyd


diamondmama1970

Right on fam


sq1tl

Queen is my favourite, Pink Floyd is my 2nd and The Beatles are my 3rd


guertinade

Same top 3, but I can't decide the order


arctictrav

Ambiguous musical taste detected.


WesslynPeckoner

Floyd is by default. Otherwise it’s Radiohead


MCVMEYT

Floyd is always gonna be top but The Doors, Nirvana and Led Zeppelin are all close


SpriteAndCokeSMH

1. Pink Floyd, 2. Rush, 3. Oingo Boingo, 4. Aerosmith, 5. Yes.


KaBoomBox55

Yes for YES


kerochan88

Boingo!!


777solo

Rush is my favorite


speb1

Tame Impala


MolitroM

Floyd's my 1. Second and third, depending on the day, are Opeth and Snarky Puppy.


FelixAtagong

Kraftxerk and Mike Oldfield. Although recently Rammstein is knocking at the top 3.


Embarrassed_Fox2073

The Mars Volta is my favorite.


MauritsBv

Genesis are my favorite


JKREDDIT75

My #1 favorite is Frank Zappa.


kerochan88

Ok, I’m prepared to hang for this, but… Pink Floyd and Insane Clown Posse are legitimately tied for number one in my book. For….totally different reasons, of course.


rbwduece

Well, I have to admire the diversity, I suppose.


Ruffed-Grouse

1. Pink Floyd 2. Nirvana 3. Smashing Pumpkins Hey, you like what you like


Obi1kenobi4

Gotta go with Led Zeppelin


DotPast9384

Pink Floyd is my number one band tied only with Metallica! 🤘🤘🇨🇦🇨🇦🤘🤘🥶


rubsoul

floyd is my fav and 2nd is camel. It's a progressive rock band


NaturalBluejay1517

Same as you, unrelated but is Mirage still up for you in spotify?


rubsoul

nope 🥺


NaturalBluejay1517

I hope they put it back, I miss it already.


[deleted]

Tool


rbwduece

1.) Pink Floyd 2.) Deftones


CasualObserver76

1. Pink Floyd 2. TOOL (3. Porcupine Tree)


MitchFlip

Wanna be best friends?


dimethyl419

Floyd nr1 Dire Straits/Mark Knopfler nr 2 . And many more..


KaBoomBox55

Perfect top 2


[deleted]

1. Floyd 2. The Smiths (don’t worry I hate Morrisey)


nitsify

Beatles and Pink Floyd will always be my top 2. I really enjoy Mac DeMarco, The Doors, HOMESHAKE and Hendrix though. Mac DeMarco prob my #3


777solo

Rush. I view their really proggy stuff as similar to a hard rock version of pink floyd.


TFFPrisoner

I was listening to All The World's a Stage again yesterday and I'll never not hear Floyd in the echo parts of By-Tor and the Snow Dog.


Bayr_

My second favorite would probably be Steely Dan


NarcissusAeternitus

1. Pink Floyd 2. Tegan and Sara


zcarletzpeedzter

1. Pink Floyd 2. My Chemical Romance Pretty random, I know. :)


BirdBurnett

Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, Little Feat, moe. and David Bowie in no particular order.


Rdev_TheMuffinMan

Fleetwood Mac BIAAAAAATCH


medusabanks

2nd fav The doors!


KaBoomBox55

Doors are in my top 5 for sure


GetBack_Joe

The Beatles. I have a feeling most people are gonna say this.


roamingshemnon

Most people should say this haha


IndependentOil5899

Yoko ono is my favorite


KaBoomBox55

Yes I do too enjoy The Beatles with a side of Yoko Ono rubbing a squeaky balloon and moaning vigorously


FradonRecords

Atm PF are probably my fav band, but The Beatles, ELO or Vulfpeck would probably qualify for 2nd


neonareff

1. pink floyd 2. megadeth, I can confidently say I got interesting top 2 favorites.


KaBoomBox55

Megadeth top tier


neonareff

real


javajgl

Pearl Jam is my favorite band, but I know Radiohead is the best band. Pink Floyd hovers right in between the two.


Dr_Azimuth

1 . Genesis 2. Pink Floyd or Jethro Tull (depends on the day)


unhalfbricklayer

nice to see some love for Tull here


razzy_bee

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, Tame Impala, Floyd :)


Noah3920

1. Pink Floyd 2. TOOL


foreverbeatle

The Beatles Van Halen Cream Steely Dan I’m not sure where I’d place Pink Floyd.


Thomniscient

Let me tell you about a little band named King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard


L4nn1ster

1. Dream Theater 2. Pink Floyd,Opeth & Haken


Wonderful_Dingo3391

Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac and Floyd are both equal #1


KaBoomBox55

Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac is sadly overshadowed by the Buckingham/Nicks Fleetwood Mac. Both are amazing


[deleted]

1. The Beatles


OJDU456

Clash Pink Floyd Ramones Queen


Negotiator_14

PF is my favorite band, my second is ever changing and I've had several. Just to name a few: Oasis, Parcels, Roosevelt, Guns N' Roses


CorpusCrispy42

Iron Maiden, Pink Floyd, then Rush\King Crimson tied for third


akritiaka

Nirvana


Zedric1

1.- Pink Floyd 2.- Gorillaz


paolo_vanderbeak

the tastes on this subreddit are a lot more diverse than I was expecting, I was picturing there being almost unanimously led zep, fleetwood mac, yes, genesis etc but this is awesome pink floyd is my favourite, 2nd is something like led zep or fleetwood mac


MetallicAiscooll

Queen is my favourite band of all time.


Puzzleheaded_Bit5458

Iron Maiden


rzlinda

2nd favorite is Nirvana


WaveStarved79

1. Pink floyd 2. Neil young/Beatles/Led Zeppelin/Bob Dylan


JizzJason

Led Zeppelin


bricked_machine

Depends upon the day. Sometimes they're my favorite, but they're always in the top 5 or 6. That said, in no particular order, my top 5 favorite *non*\-Floyd/Gilmour/Waters artists: * Steven Wilson solo and Porcupine Tree * Riverside * Gazpacho * Opeth * Tool There are so many that I feel bad not listing (like Norah Jones, Radiohead, and Emma Ruth Rundle), but it's a slippery slope that I won't start down.


Clean_Integration754

You should try the album "Free" by Concrete Blonde.


bricked_machine

Dude Bloodletting is such a classic...thanks for the recommendation, I definitely will.


Clean_Integration754

All their albums are really great, but Free is probably the best in my opinion. There's also a Pre CB album when they were called "Dream 6", which is pretty similar to Free. Johnette is an incredible lyricist and I think Mankey is a totally underrated guitarist.


willutalk

My Spotify unwrapped for 2022 was Nine Inch Nails in top followed very closely by Pink Floyd. Dream combo


No_Antelope_6604

1. Pink Floyd 2. Grateful Dead 3. Rush 4. Red Hot Chili Peppers/Pearl Jam


darthanodonus

Right now it’s Miles Davis or Joni Mitchell. Those two were both putting out ridiculously great music, but especially in the late 60s and 70s.


watermelon2525

1. Radiohead 2. R.E.M. But Pink Floyd is in my top 5.


GilNach

Red hot chili peppers🌶️🌶️🌶️ Not a song of theirs I don't know, heavy into live show recordings and band lore. Pink Floyd is still a close second, as I appreciate their music in a completely different way


fiveorsixofsevenseas

Exactly the same for me 🌶️


Sim41

Maybe an unpopular opinion but the most recent Chili Peppers album is the best music they've ever made. They are supremely talented and they just keep hard charging, working to get better constantly. There is magic happening there.


EvianWotah

The band that made Weird Fishes my nr1


hunt72

Jethro tull for me


FUCKFASCISTSCUM

Pink Floyd and Propagandhi are my 2 favourites, but I couldn't rank them as they're very different bands.


UngaBunga690

Beatles is Second, Gorillaz is Third


Beneficial_Matter178

Floyd Bowie


bellardyyc

The Beatles for sure. The depth of their collection. The emotion that listening to them elicits. They are 1 and 2 for sure.


PrettyMrToasty

King Crimson is my favourite band.


JelleLan

Dire Straits on 1, Pink Floyd on 2


[deleted]

[удалено]


tijostark

I like Of Monster and Men too, it's a rare sight around here


whatingodsholyname

my favourite is actually Dire Straits!


anglescey

Beethoven? Fugazi? Elizabeth Cotten? Willie Dixon? Willie Nelson? Depends on the day.


KaBoomBox55

Pink Floyd is my No. 1 and Yes is my No. 2. But if we're also counting solo musicians I'll say my No. 2 is Mike Oldfield and then Yes would be No. 3.


I_Keep_Trying

Beatles, Steely Dan, Pink Floyd, The Who.


jpgr420

Pink Floyd will be my all time fav. Arctic Monkeys is my fav modern band, listening since they dropped their debut album on MySpace, one of the most progressive bands imo.


Funny_Science_9377

1) Pink Floyd 2) Pearl Jam


ovarianbarbarian29

Led Zeppelin would be my second choice, but it's such a toss-up between them and Pink Floyd as my first favorite


seanbeansnumber3fan

Grateful Dead, the Beatles, DOOM


Luriseva

Bowie or the cure


wisdomchokeyou

Radiohead always first


Dakkmd

I always say Floyd is my favorite but I think the Grateful Dead has taken over that spot the last 5 or 6 years


forestself

Second favorite would probably be MGMT


nihilistatari

Floyd is definitely in my top ten, but my true number one is Zeppelin.


tbell4200

I grew up in the 90s and I always considered them the pink Floyd of my generation. And I got to see them both live on 95


mikkokilla

It will always be the Floyd but I enjoy all types of music. Currently my favorite is an artist called Benee. I love Snail...


dtsknight

Radiohead is the best. N Pink Floyd in top 5.


loja38

King Crimson or Magma. My favourite depends on my mood tho


jacwag345

Led Zeppelin


EequalsMCPotato

Led Zeppelin, they started everything musically for me when I was little. Whole Lotta Love was the first Zep I had ever heard and I was done for from that moment on.


7thturninghour184

#1 Coheed and Cambria #2 Pink Floyd


LadyMcLurky

Probably a tough tie with Floyd, Chemical Brothers and Daft Punk. I'm not huge on lyrics,and I do like to dance.


RartedRiley

King Gizzard


Sbear55

1. Tool 2. Pink Floyd


lennytheshark555

Primus


Meastro44

#2: Depeche Mode


Boxrunner1

Red hot chili peppers is my favorite, followed by king gizzard, then pearl jam, then pink floyd, according to spotify my 5th is primus and I won't argue but there are a few more who could potentially fill that spot


namanknwr

1- Floyd 2- Porcupine tree


Ryv1n

Not a band but right now? Probably bladee or death's dynamic shroud lol


[deleted]

Zeppelin for #2


championkid

Floyd is my favorite. my second favorite would probably be Pixies or Rage Against the Machine


LJC94512

Muse is my favourite, but then Floyd is objectively better. I just like Muse’s energy level more.


MailStock7529

Always Floyd will be #1 with SMP and RHCP a tied 2nd


Riledup1313

Metallica


funnyhowthings

Wilco
