i'm really into Animal Collective lately , such a wild, jungle-like and surreal music. Check it out!

[Flotsam]

I thought if another band/artist Skytree It is this hippy techno music that rocks everyone should hear them.

--------- pink floyd shpongle opeth bjork ---------------- those are the four i would take to a deserted island.. i'm in one of those phases where i'm completely tired of music...anyone else get that way sometimes?

Originally posted by Asher i'm in one of those phases where i'm completely tired of music...anyone else get that way sometimes? i never get tired of music, but i often listen to the same type or the same few artists non-stop for a solid three months and then get completely sick of them. but they're always replaced with something else. if i ever got tired of music in general i would stab pencils into my eardrums, because there's not much else worth listening to (unless you live alone in the wilderness)

[shinyboot]

Right now I'd have to say my favorite band over-all is Interpol. But I really also like (in no particular order): Led Zeplin The Decemberists Pink Floyd Stone Temple Pilots Velvet Underground The Killers Franz Ferdinand Iron and Wine Nine Inch Nails Modest Mouse

[DuB]

The Beatles (later era, 1965-1970) Led Zeppelin (Jimmy Page is my personal hero) Pink Floyd (post-Syd Barret era) Red Hot Chili Peppers (yeah, doesn't really fit with the others, but hey, they fuckin' rock)

[Universal Mind]

(very possibly in this order...) The Beatles Joni Mitchell Jefferson Airplane Fleetwood Mac Pink Floyd Traffic The Grateful Dead Jethro Tull Cream Joan Baez Led Zeppelin Black Sabbath Crosby, Stills, and Nash (and Young) John Coltrane Steely Dan The Jimi Hendrix Experience Hawkwind The Doors Yes The Doobie Brothers I was born in the extremely early 70's, and I strongly believe that the greatest music in human history was recorded in the few years surrounding my birth. Perhaps that's no coincidence, but it's what I think.

Does anyone here know about a band called The Books? Give it a few listens and be ready to be blown out (in a very unusual way)!

[Sortilegio]

Are there any brazilians? I loved this brazilian band that got a CD out and then died touring on a planecrash "Mammonas Assassinas", man their lyrics cracked me up, they where awsome.

[Kitt]

I must admit I'm a major fan of Pink Floyd. Wish You Were Here, Shine on You Crazy Diamond, and Speak To me/Breathe are all beautiful songs with exceptional lyrics. Other Favorites:[list]

[KidAircrash]

Favorites: Radiohead The Mars Volta The Flaming Lips Broken Social Scene Liars !!! Death From Above 1979 Of Montreal + a ton more

[Starlite]

Oh SoOoOo many for me....but if it came to choosing just one it would have to be: Bouncing Souls.

[Ardent Lost]

It's unpossible to pick one single favourite. I guess i've been on a small Opeth kick the last few days, having seen them a couple of days ago. My favourites in general would be (in no particular order): Opeth Frank Zappa John Zorn Cynic Maudlin of the Well Meshuggah Pain of Salvation Loreena McKennitt Bjork Art Zoyd

[WolfBlade]

I believe you will find my favorites run the gamut: (and by the way, I am NOT going to alphabetize this list... I WILL NOT...) Metallica The Moody Blues (crap, not working...) Queen (dangit, where's a different one? Aha!) Backstreet Boys (only when I'm feeling rebellious... j/k) Ahh, now, where was I? Oh, yes... Creed Dream Theater (by the way, Burns, I think you would like these guys if you like Metallica's later stuff, like S&M and just before) Enigma Evanescence (dangit, I'm doing alphabetical again...) Mannheim Steamroller Genesis The Beatles (great, now I'm going in reverse alphabetical order... will I never be free?) Yanni Enya White Stripes Nickelback Matchbox 20 System of a Down Iron Maiden Blind Guardian The Canadian Brass Jethro Tull Trans-Siberian Orchestra Eiffel 65 Spock's Beard I could go on, but then I would be dominating this post, and we don't want that, now do we? Haha, here's one I doubt many will agree with me on: Wierd Al Yankovic!!! Originally posted by Gwendolyn is my absolute favorite band. * My other favorites are: Type O' Negative, The Moody Blues, Pink Floyd, Oasis, Bush, The White Stripes, Modest Mouse. Gwen, I love you. You're the only one I've found so far who likes Moody Blues. Though, I have to say, just like Genesis, I only like their later stuff.
