Led Zeppelin was an English hard rock band formed in London in 1968 as the New Yardbirds. The group consisted of Robert Plant (Vocal), Jimmy Page (Guitar), John Paul Jones (Bass, Keyboard) and John Bonham (Drums) and was very much the child of Jimmy Page who even financed their first tour. He had tasted some previous success with The [original] Yardbirds and was friendly with some big names in rock. Page states it was Keith Moon of The Who that claimed the band could only go down, like a lead balloon -- thus prompting the iconic name of Led Zeppelin. The band's heavy, guitar-driven sound, rooted in blues and psychedelia on their early albums, has earned them recognition as one of the progenitors ...read more.

Marilyn Manson is an American rock band from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Formed in 1989 by frontman Marilyn Manson and Daisy Berkowitz, the group was originally named Marilyn Manson & the Spooky Kids with their theatrical performances gathering a local cult following in the early 1990s.
The name of the band comes from famous sex symbol Marilyn Monroe and famous criminal Charles Manson. Manson joined these two names together because he wanted a name combined with good (Monroe) and evil (Manson). The other members of the band have their stage names combined with the first names of famous sex symbols and the last names of famous serial killers. Two years ago some crazed fan poisoned this site by making four posts about Manson. Enough said!
Five Finger Death Punch, often shortened to Five Finger or Death Punch, also abbreviated as 5FDP or FFDP, is an American metal band from Las Vegas, Nevada. Formed in 2005, the band's name comes from the kung fu movie The Five Fingers of Death. So many Affliction and other MMA shirt wearing power drinkers. Their male fan base would rather seek out conflicts than watch this rock (not metal) band.
All their fans are just angsty, annoying 14 year olds with anger issues who get bullied.

Faith No More is an American alternative metal band from San Francisco, California, formed in 1979. Before settling on their current moniker in 1983, the band performed under the names Sharp Young Men and later Faith No Man. Granted this band has been irrelevant for the last 20+ years but I consider their fans to be one of the worst, specifically online. In any of their popular videos from what I've seen their fans view them as the greatest band that ever lived, despite them having only one hit song (although I'm sure there are songs that many of their fans know that are "popular"). And don't get me started on their lead singer, because they view him like a god and that he's the greatest singer to ever live since he had one of the highest vocal ranges. Also if you try to say that this band isn't that good you will be bombarded with fans saying how your opinion is wrong or any profanity that makes them sound like little kids. And come to think of it I feel like their fans consist of people in their mid 50s that live in a basement and have nothing to do with their lives.
