Who is your fav band at the moment? Maybe not all time fav just who are you really into right now?
Even though they are top 20 all time I would have to say Queens Of The Stone Age.

Does Andrew Bird count? Yes, Andrew Bird. And an obscure band called Skybox.
Who are they, what do they sound like.
Kings of Leon
currently I just got into Broken Social Scene after watching Half Nelson (which is in my top 5 favorite all time movies now).
all-time favorite band is either Radiohead, or Limp Bizkit. tough to decide between the two.
Andrew Bird is probably one of the top lyric writers working today; his most recent album (Armchair Apocrypha), I think, finally melds his lyrics with damn good music. He's in a bit of the vein of Feist and bands who have varied soundscapes (does that even make sense? Bah who cares). He's pretty indie though and live he's damn fantastic since he's more stripped down. I guess this album reminds me of Damien Rice sweeping instrumentality, but less morose and suicidal, with some hints of guys like Shout Out Louds and The Format.
Skybox is just ing crazy; sounds like a piano-based cabaret band crossed with modern pop, performing in Moulin Rouge! (the movie...). He has lyrics like: "Me and my right hand like to play together/And then there's my thumb he's a grumpy/Well me and my thumb like to run/Like big stars we'll shine together/They're gonna love my baby tonight". And song les like: The Caravan Cabaret, Disco Duck and Superglued to My Spaceship (where he sings about the Queen of Mars). Usually, I really don't recommend them, just because they are so far out there; but if you can get into them, a great musical ride.
I'd go with Limp Bizkit. I heard they are coming out with a new album that is supposed to change rock forever. I can't wait
Fred Durst is a poet. His lyrics are a thing of beauty. I've never heard someone rhyme "suck" with " " more often, and with such passion.
Not a band, but Alice Smith. There was this cool song playing at the tail end of the "Entourage" episode from a couple of weeks ago, the one where Drama ed that fury. Anyhoo, I looked it up and her whole album is badass. You can hear a few tracks here: http://www.myspace.com/alicesmith
I am counting down the days until Grey Holiday's CD comes out. Not only were they all from my high school, but they're going to be awesome once everyone hears about them. I'm not even kidding.

He is so advanced it is hard for people and critics to understand him. I suggest you read this theory as it applies to Fred
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Theory
“ Advancement is a cultural condition in which an Advanced individual—i.e., a true genius—creates a piece of art that 99 percent of the population perceives to be bad. However, this is not because the work itself is flawed; this is because most consumers are not Advanced.

Not my all-time favorite, but I've been on a serious blink-182 binge for some time now.
yeah i like some blink. if ur gonna listen to pop/punk/emo, blink-182 is one of the few acceptable bands.
Emo?Pop Punk is right man. I still upsets me that they broke up, but happens I guess.
hahah that Furry scene was CLASSIC!!
Dude, when I first heard the sound that chick was making, before they showed her, I thought it was a dog! I was about to throw up in my mouth a little.
I haven't been able to get enough of Between the Buried and Me for the last year or so.
And they're recording a new album!!

Is this Blink 182 talk about the same as the Limp Bizkit talk earlier?
Limp Bizkit. Blink 182 is awesome. Fred Durst is pathetic.
I was going to say the same about Blink 182.
Limp sucked and I couldnt stand them......blink got old and annoying......But hey if you liked them then thats cool with me as long as I dont have to listen.
