Hi All,

I love finding new music in which i have never listened t..... so i thought who better to ask than the ppl who listen to the music.

Looking for Bands Similar to Five Finger Death Punch, Rise Against, Avenged Sevenfold, Soil, Axenstar, Shinedown and so on, im not into the screaming at all but if there is a small bit then so be it.

Any suggestions guys, be great

thanks in advance:)

Give the Mars Volta a try, especially their first album, it'd be the most similar to the bands you mentioned. Their 2nd and 3rd albums are up in my all time top 5, but may take a bit of getting used to.

Actually give at the drive in a whirl too, they're long since disbanded, and eventually served as the spine for the Mars Volta, but once again are more punk and less prog than TMV. the album relationship to command is savage!

You're welcome man! That's the great thing about music, there's always something else out there for you. Don't knock the dance though, I guarantee if you listen to it in 5 years time it'll be nostalgia heaven!
