Explanation, lengthy (twss) explanation, two word explanation (I guess that'd technically be a double stop), no explanation, whatever.

I wanna know.

Apparently, that's for you to know and me to find out.

Well in that case, my favorite chord is a substitution.

I'd have to look it up in the book that's gathering dust under my desk. It's a good one, though. Trust me.

D minor in standard tuning, or in lowered tunings, Bb minor. Also my go-to key.

C power chord, with the root on the thickest string available.

There is none more better.

A7♯9 is a close second.

Probably D Minor as well.

I really like the hideous Today is the Day chord, where you play a power chord with the bottom string dropped two and a half steps. So you're basically playing a huge octave (down) chord.
