    Most of my favourites i've seen live like Linkin Park, Metallica, Biffy Clyro (a good ayrshire band now massive!) Lostprophets, KoRn, Fun Lovin Criminals.

    If anyone is a fan of rap music there is Fort Minor which is Mike from Linkin Park's hip-hop side project, amazing lyrics.

    For those who want to check it out, it's called Endtroducing and is much better than his follow-up album, in my opinion. Also worth looking into are some of the side projects he's been involved with, most notably the first UNKLE album, Psyence Fiction and the production work on the Quannum album, 'Spectrum'. He's left both of those since, as far as I know.

    To be fair, the OP didn't restrict it to Earth based favourites :)
