So you are only allowed to listen to One band / artist for the rest of your days

Omar Rodriguez Lopez

The National are a very good call but I’d go with R.E.M. if I had to pick just one.

Band – Queens of the Stone Age.
Artist – Willy Mason

Julian Cope or Robyn Hitchcock, can’t decide.

Band – Yes
Artist – Neil Young

Hang on, no I mean

Band – Pink Floyd Led Zeppelin

Damn these favourite threads. 😈

Can we listen to anything involving an artist, ie all his bands and collaborations?

Artist: Joshua M Homme

Band: Motörhead

Springsteen

Artiste: Van Morrison

Band: Joe Bonamassa

Band – Led Zeppelin

Artist – Bob Dylan

Both are essential listening for me

My iPod has already killed any possibility of listening to the same band forever because it keeps playing the same freakin tunes over and over and over gain on shuffle until I hate them and have to delete them and every other tune by the same artist.

Variety is the spice of life an’ all that

band – The Allman Brothers Band
artist – Derek Trucks

So where are all the boring bastards who made Adele a best seller then?

I’d rather listen to Adele than many of the bands mentioned above.

Need clarification on the OP’s question though: Does the band I choose play live for me? With dead members resurrected if need be?

Might go for The Stooges if so. Or the Velvets.

Band: AC/DC
Artist: Seasick Steve

Bob Dylan
Pink Floyd

The Walkmen
Johnny Cash

Seasick Steve is a funny one, absolutely loved seeing him live in the flesh and on TV, but didn’t think the two albums i have lived up to seeing him live, felt a bit too polished.

everyone who said Led Zeppelin has passed the test. Congratulations.

ROlling Stones for the runners up.

New Model Army

I’d rather listen to Adele weighs more than many of the bands mentioned above.

If the answer to my question to OP was no, then for artist I’d choose PJ Harvey. .

Pink Floyd (I’m in a Floyd mood today, tomorrow it might be Led Zep)
Rory Gallagher. Always, no deviations there.

Mike Patton

Band: Crippled Black Phoenix
Artist: PJ Harvey

Runrig

C’mon Druidh , stop trolling and take it seriously.

I think i could probably get by on The Beatles or The Eels for the rest of my days.

Vitalic

Band : the Beatles

Artist : Van Morrison

Aggghhhhh! too hard a question, my brain hurts even thinking about it…

Fugazi

Ian Mckaye

can I not pick one from each genre? not playing anymore!Hurts my head, stupid game.

Band: Sonic Youth
Artist: Trent Reznor

65 Days of Static

without a doubt.

Radiohead

Warren Zevon

passtherizla – good call!

tough question – at 16, anthrax =) now, dunno… something classical (i’m assuming a composer counts for the artist?)

band – possibly PWEI – good mix of stuff – but will i still like def con one when i’m 75?

ach, metallica – i wont’ be able to hear it when i’m 75 anyway =)

Band:Arcade Fire
Artist:Bob Dylan

I threw the former in to show I’m not stuck in a time warp with Dylan!

Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy/Will Oldham/Palace/etc.

PJ a close second atm.

The Black Keys are curently rocking my world but that could coz they are fairly ‘new’ to me.

Band: U2
Artist: Neil Young

or The Crystal Method… for some trail tunes

Band – Death Cab For Cutie
Atist – Tom McRae

Massive Attack and Prince

band – possibly PWEI – good mix of stuff – but will i still like def con one when i’m 75?

I love the Poppies and think they’re massively underrated, but I never even considered them as my one band for the rest of time.

You are way more grebo than me, I take my army surplus hat off to you.

Green Day
Johnny Cash

Radiohead
Nick Cave
