Thread: What is Your Music?

Are you talking about genres of music, or individual people/bands?

metallica
buckethead
guns n roses

thats really the main ones, my fave ones. but i listen to other stuff aswell like AC/DC, queen, meatloaf, velvet revolver, pretty much lots of rock.

A shit load of Interpol and a lot of euro-dance (Caramell and Toybox specifically, a little bit of Robyn to). Also some Futureheads and Hood Internet.

Jami Sieber is one of my favorite ambient artists.

Stuff....Beatles....Muse...Metallica...SOAD...Serj Tankien...Augastana....Boston...Creedance Cleerwater Reunion... Black Sabbath, Ozzy Ousborne...AC/DC...Green Day...Protest the hero...Eminem...Incubus...Jimmy eat world...MJ...Matchbox twenty... hoobastank...Neil Young...Oasis....Uhm, I could go on, but... you know...

HELL YES! PENDULUM ROCKS.

D&B is kickass all together. but if you want specific bands, muse, blue stahli, chemical brothers, crystal castles, edgewater, the mars volta, and celldweller. <3

Jazz and Experimental is really the only actual creative process of music making in my opinion. I have listened to it all, and the summit doesn't get any higher for me. It literally opens doors to originality that no other music genre will ever be able to penetrate without traveling through that territory.

I'm not listening to a whole lot of music at the moment. The last music I listened to would have been the last CDs I bought, which were from:

Mr. Bungle
Sigur Ros
Giacomo Puccini
Pain of Salvation
Rush

Pretty sure that's Creedence Clearwater Revival, guitarboy.

A little of this, a little of that, for me.

Battlelore (Catchy, but mostly LotR-based. Good in small doses.)
Blue Man Group (Amazing sound.)
Blue October
Darkwell
The Decemberists
Dream Theater (Still not convinced I like them, but I'm giving them another try.)
Edenbridge
Epica (Still on top.)
Hammerfall
Lacuna Coil
Rammstein
Sirenia

Sigur Ros(the new Pink Floyd (and bigger than ever))
Dntel
Fleet Foxes
Radiohead (of course)
Modest Mouse
The Islands
Flaming Lips
Return To Forever (how could you not?)

Just two days ago I found this amazing folk metal band called Elvenking! Their songs are amazing! Especially this one called "another awful hobs tale" I cannot get it out of my head right now!

this is easily my favorite genre at the moment combined with symphonic metal like Rhapsody(of fire) and Nightwish. Dragonforce and Edguy are quite high up in normal metal as well.

Definately an amazing band!
love the tarantula!

Take a wild guess.

But really, the music I listen to is progressive, metal, (but none of that something-core shit) and/or instrumental.

Muse
Sigur Rós
Yann Tiersen
Placebo
The Killers
The Cure, Secret Garden, and Weezer a bit.

Grod

now??

beatles
elliot smith
the smiths
fleet foxes
nick drake
bob dylan

just some of my main ones

What ever's on the radio mostly.

As for songs etc. that I love:
I LOVE Jekyll and Hyde the musical, but even though I am not bipolar, the music can make me rather manic and/or dysphoric and prompts disassociation. So I don't listen to it often unless I want to trigger those moods.

Rock Star
Flowers on the Wall
Dream a Little Dream
Did you ever see a dream walking
Hate me
Viva la vida
Paralyzer
Hey there Delilah
Fall For You
Wild Side (Marky Mark version)
The Way I am
I'm Yours
Dido
New Soul
Bittersweet Symphony
How far we've come
Jewel
Enter Sandman
Nothing Else Matters
Crimson and Clover
The Freshmen
Phantom of the Opera
Les Miserables
Fiddler on the Roof
It can't rain all the Time
Chrono Cross Music CD (attributed to Blue Man Group but Wikipedia says it's Yasunori Mitsuda)
The Rooster

... to name just a few

The Tragically Hip are back in the studio recording another album. Been on a hip kick in anticipation.

I am a Breakcore, Ambient, and Drum & Bass guy myself. I like to listen to the likes of Venetian Snares, Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, Autechre, Limewax, Current Value, Raiden, the list goes on and on. But more specifically the darker ('darkstep') kind of Drum and bass. I think that Pendulum has lost their touch and is a disgrace to the D&B scene. Don't get me wrong, I love their older stuff like Toxic Shock, but the new psuedo-rock stuff and the 2-step drum patterns are just silly. Venetian Snares, Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, and Autechre are just crazy geniuses.

Nobody likes Rap, Hip-hop or r&b???

how bout oldies but goodies?
