Die Ärzte
Non-German music:
Weezer I suppose. SOAD is also great.

Band - Iron Maiden
Musician - Zakk Wylde

This is far from full list. A lot of new(for me) bands and such creeping onto my ipod more and more. These two are just my "Lifetime" favourites, not even my favourites at the minute .

I would have to say that as far as bands go: Linkin Park, 30 Seconds to Mars and Anberlin.

Favorite artist has to be Frank Sinatra! I love the rat pack and all the musicians in it, but no one is nearly as cool as Frank. I mean come on, alleged mob connections is pretty sweet!

Nick Drake or Elliott Smith ... its kind of a tie ... I grew up with one (parents listened to Nick)and discovered another (fortunately years before he died so I was able to enjoy him in his prime)

There's so much wonderful music out there, it's hard to pick just a handful!
For bands, I'd say Ludo, Muse, Tokyo Jihen, and the Mars Volta.
As for musician, Akira Yamaoka hands down. The man is a genius.

<color=purple> Favorite band is a toss up between Atreyu and Avenged Sevenfold. Favorite musician may be Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan, but idk. I loved Jimmy and now after all the tributes and stuff, i have seen enough of him to know he's brilliant. :p

I myself am a drummer and a technical death metal fan. I love Crytopsy, Animosity, Despised Icon, Defeated Sanity, Misery Index, Napalm Death, blah blah blah. The bigger question is; How about the forum? Any favorites?
I just discovered Animosity after watching some Converge vids on youtube (Converge rock my nuts off) and Animosity are fantastic! Can't believe I've not listened to them before!
OT: My 2 favourite bands are The Gaslight Anthem and Gallows. I've never been able to pick a favourite out of the two
I also love Converge (as I said), AFI, Against Me!, Cancer Bats, This Is Hell, Rise Against, The Clash and many many many more

EDIT: Forgot about favourite musicians
Frontman - Davey Havok (AFI) and Joe Strummer (The Clash)
Drummer - The Rev (A7X) (RIP Rev)
Guitarist - Simon Neil (Biffy Clyro) (I just love his style)
Bassist - Matt Freeman (Rancid)

At the risk of sounding redundant (considering they are my avatar), my favorite band is Foo Fighters and my favorite musician is Dave Grohl. Josh Homme and his respective bands are up there in my tops, as well.

Without a shred of doubt or hesitation. Emilie Autumn.
She blows my mind, as a musician, singer, poet, writer, burlesque dancer, and entrepreneur, as well as various reasons that would sound so gay and fake if you don't know her backstory.

EMILIE AUTUMN!
