I really like hard rock bands with nice riffs to their songs, but after searching far and wide and trying lots of recommendations I'm up for anything. Thanks

Dead Soul Tribe - 'To My Beloved'
*very Tool-like but they incorporate many tribal sounds and elements. I'm only just getting into them, they've split now but it's cool because most members are starting a new band. I really don't like when bands outstay their welcome and aren't creating anything new. It's good for musicians to branch out.
Anathema - 'Are You There?'
*they started as a death metal band but you seriously wouldn't tell after hearing this. If you like atmospheric rock, or like Porcupine Tree you should check these guys out. Beautiful song.
James LaBrie - 'Freaks'
*if you like Dream Theater you should check out James' solo album 'Elements Of Persuasion'. It's very different to Dream Theaters work and I personally think he sounds better on this album. This is actually his 3rd solo effort, with a previous band called Mullmuzzler. This is my second favourite song off this album, check out 'Slightly Out Of Reach' as well.
^^^ they are just very small samples. You should seriously check out the full albums and look into them. I think you and I have a very similar taste in music judging by your ten bands listed. Welcome to MB by the way.
