Can anyone recommend any good rock/alt? Nothing that sounds like pop/emo or extremely heavy. (Pls no Linkin Park or Simple Plan bands, I hate that type of music)

I like stuff like Metallica, Rammstien, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, etc.

Currently listening to Caesars - Out of my hands

Not heavy....Metallica, Rammstein...yeah!

Not extremely heavy stuff, not sure the genre, death metal I guess. But heavy metal is alright.

Adema - esp. Co-Dependent

Avenged Sevenfold - esp. Chapter Four
Avenged Sevenfold - esp. Bat Country

Deftones -esp. Minerva

Iron Maiden

Animal Alpha -esp. Bundy

Papa Roach -esp. Getting Away With Murder
Papa Roach -esp. Not Listening

Evanescence

Children of Bodome

Sonata Arctica

Stratovarius

Nightwish

The Rasmus

Thanks, definitely like some of that.

- nightwish and you have a good list.

Thanks, and hope you like them as much as I do

Irish punk: Flogging Molly

Ozzy Osborne is heavy, but good stuff.

Then there's all the classic rock: Black Crows, Creedence, Bob Seger, etc.

Stuff like My Chemical Romance, Brand New & Fall Out Boy. It's not all that bad, but not exactly what I like. Haven't heard of the bands you posted, but I'll look into it.

Thanks Canis, I like some of the older stuff. Iron Maiden especially.

If you have any more suggestions then your more then welcome to add to this thread. Another favorite of mine is Smashing Pumpkins, but not so much the newer stuff before they broke up.

Shadows Fall.

Snake River Conspiracy

Snake River Conspiracy, just sampled it on Amazon sounds interesting but not exactly what I like. Is there any particular song you like?

Shadows Fall: Not bad, a bit too heavy for me.

old Jane's Addiction

Jane's Addiction is pretty good.
