What are some of you favorite bands?

I thought the EXACT same thing back in my classic rock days but the really good new music you will NOT find on the radio. Nowadays radio stations play only what will make the most people listen or whoever pays the most to have their song on the radio. The new upstart bands that like to make good and interesting music just for the heck of it are the ones that you only hear of by word of mouth. Kind of sad if you ask me, but there is some really cool brand-new music out there if you look for it.

A lot of the music I listen to when it's just me and no one else doesn't get radio play, not in my area. Kutlass? Thousand Foot Krutch? Michael Tait? Forget about it. These are Christian rock bands, with TFK being on the more edge of heavy and Michael Tait being all the way over. The Christian station we have around here is family oriented, meaning more Casting Crowns (good band), Mercy Me, etc. But if I'm working in a shop with a bunch of other guys we tend to agree on a classic rock station. Seems that everyone can get along to Skynard, Zeplin, etc.
