Some rock bands.

Hoi crossfire users!

Like the title says, I'm looking for some new rock songs since I'm bored with the music I've been listening to lately (there are some tracks you can play all the day through your entire life but they're just not enough and there aren't really so many of them, you probably know that) and browsing random forums, trying to find something that would fit my taste, has had almost no results. So just tell me your favourites, be it a band or just a song title, so that I can check it. Thanks in advance.

Have a nice day.

Dream Theater
Opeth
Extol
Liquid Tension Experiment
Pain of Salvation

Good luck!
Used to lsiten to Dream Theater's songs quite a lot. Also know Pain of Salvation.

But will gladly check the other ones. Thanks!

Liquid Tension Experiment = Sideproject of DT.. Petrucci, portnoy, rudess and some other random bassist, instrumental only. It's awesome. I recommend "Acid Rain", "Biaxident", "When the water breaks"

Opeth = prog metal, or as they call it, "the thinking mans metal". Beautiful music. I recommend just about everything they've made
Extol = Norwegian metalband, I absolutely love their last record, The Blueprint Dives. I always come back to that album. It's pure beauty. The world would be a much better place if everyone listened to that album, i'm pretty damned sure. If you like more technical metal, get Synergy. If you just want it plain haaaaard and heavy, get Undecieved.

Opeth are a rock band now???

Rock is a very wide term
Parent
But rock != metal
Parent
Metal = rock, but rock != metal, in correct sense of both words!
Parent
So if metal = rock, Mayhem and Ragnarök are both rock bands? @:D:DDdd
Parent
Per definition yes, but they're not classic rock bands :P
Parent
afaik DT are progressive metal and now even close to rock

So I hit the nail :)
Parent
u did and it is nothing wrong with suggesting such a great band :] but still i don't think rock has smtn to do with DT. Example based u can't compare Guns n roses which are pure rock as far as i know with them. Oh and i am glad someone here ever heard for LTE (liquid tension experiment)
Parent
LTE ftw :)

But remember that most modern genres at some point derivates from rock, including metal, prog, even techno, trance, etc. So saying DT or LTE isn't related to rock would be ignoring music history tbh.

Although you're kind of right, i doubt he meant rock the way I mean it here when he asked the question, but I felt I had to give him these kickass recommendations anyways :P
Parent
you are totally right at that point about where all genres came from.
