Anything by Ben Folds.

Arcturus - Star Crossed.

And anything by Children of Bodom (it's keyboard, but who cares).

If other keyed intstruments counts, then Highway Star by Deep Purple. There's a few of their songs which have things that sound like guitar solos but are actually organ.

no dude apparantly you can't do that


but srsly, the album I'm listening to now (Can - Soon Over Babaluma) has some amazing keyboard moments, funnily enough. Especially the song Chain Reaction

Well somebody has said Children of Bodom and nobody disagreed, so im assuming metal is allowed =o

Alot of power metal bands like Sonata Arctica or Kamelot have incredible keyboards in them, and even tho i don't like Dragonforce, i have to say that their keyboardist is amazing. Meh. Bye =o

You = dude. Are you into Faust, Neu, Amon Duul and other rocking German bands?

Elton John is a great piano player, surprised nobody's mentioned him. The Stones' have a good piano player, Nicky Hopkins. Nick Cave is incredible, especially on the album "No More Shall We Part". The Doors of course.

More as I think of it.

Indeed, they all kick ass (well I haven't listened to Amon Duul yet but assuming they're anything like Faust or Neu then I'm sure I could say that confidently).

Which album do you think I should try by them?
