  • Here's a few of my favorites: Soilwork, In Flames, Alice In Chains, Candlebox, Blind Melon, Tool, Pearl Jam, Ill Nino, Ra, Killswitch Engage.
  • I enjoy anime music, classic old and contemporary music, old 80's south american pop and rock music and some very little of contemporary indie music.

    Well my favourites would have to be Faith No More, Flaming Lips, Gomez, and the Dresden Dolls

    But my music tastes are all over the shop. To give you an idea, the last few albums I bought are: Chemical Brothers, Gomez, White Stripes, a cast recording of Les Miserables and !!!.

  • Myself, I like an awful lot of different types. Mainly indie, britpop, electronica, drum and bass, two step, gabba, ska, punk, rock, metal, blues, jazz. Lots! The more the better in my opinion.
  • I'm all over the place myself. I tend towards more complex and interesting music. However, the largest percentage of my music is some sort of extreme metal. Here are some favorites:

    Gojira, Lamb of God, Slayer, Mastodon, Cannibal Corpse, Deicide, Nile, Decapitated, Cattle Decapitation, Strapping Young Lad (and other Devin Townsend projects), Children of Bodom, Dimmu Borgir

    I've also recently gotten into folk metal, in the vein of Finntroll and Korpiklaani.

    My all-time favorite musical artist is Nick Cave.
  • Faith No More rules, I can't believe I forgot to add them to my list.

    We already have this thread. That's why I think we should have a sticky suggestion thread.

    That being said, here's Jimmy Bowskill, a 14 year old punk kid singinf my favorite B.B. King song:

    He's on his way to being really good, if he'd only stop with the guitar face.

    I know everyone's going to jump on me about liking Beck, seeing as he's a Scientologist. I'm sorry, but I just cannot resist the awesomeness of songs like Nausea, Paper Tiger, and Hell Yes.

  • I will listen to most anything that isn't country or gangsta rap, but my main favorites are classic rock and anime music. I'd say my favorite bands and artists are:
    The Beach Boys(my favorite band of all time bar none), the Grateful Dead, Phil Lesh and Friends(a natural follow up to my Dead love...and no, I've never done a single drug in my life that wasn't prescribed by a doctor), Puffy AmiYumi, Van Halen, O.A.R.(Of A Revolution), G. Love and Special Sauce, Rod Stewart(before he started this lounge singing thing), Eric Clapton, Alter Bridge, and Jimmy Buffet.
    The links for some of the bands go to their archive.org site where you can stream or download live concert recordings. I believe all of them allow soundboard recording(Phil Lesh releases for free some of his shows as official digital soundboard recordings for free) so if you want to hear what a band really sounds like check those out, or perhaps a matrix of an audience recording and the soundboard
  • I love Van Halen and Eric Clapton. =)

  • It's nice to see this didn't turn into a flame war of "OMG YOU LIKE X BAND LOL FAG NUB."
  • I recently heard some music from "Quantic Soul Orchestra" and liked the sound of it. They describe themselves as Jazz/Funk. It seems they aren't all that well known though as I'm having trouble finding their music in Australian music stores...? I'll default to ol' American Amazon if I can't find any locally.
  • Look, I'm sorry, but X Band is just derivative.  They're just not good.
  • I see an acute problem with this thread, that is, listing the bands you love only works out for those who recognize the band names as something amazing. This makes it tough to guess which bands out of an entire play list are awesome if they are not arranged by genre or some sort of relation.

    But for MrRoboto, in the line of Bjork, Radiohead, Sigur Ros, etc.
    You will want to check out:
    Mum
    the Album Leafs
    Ratatat (entirely instrumental, and further down the road, a bit more techno)
    As mentioned before, Broken Social Scene. This is not punk rock, its a mix of Radiohead, and the synthesized sounds of Ratatat roughly speaking.
    I'm giving a try to some of the others you had in that sentence.

    In line with techno stuff, anyone know anything as good or related to these random bits?

    Underworld (later nineties albums)
    John Digweed
    J. Ralph

    As for most of the playlists, mostly great stuff. Not a huge fan of the eighties so I can't say much for or against those bands.
  • Tool, Pantera, Incubus, Smashing Pumpkins, Sabbath, Rise Against, Pearl Jam, Audioslave, Nirvana, Avenged Sevenfold, Three Inches of blood, and much much more....
