I listen to LOUD music - that pretty much covers it for me.

I have no specific bands I could name to be honest, but I prefer Rock and what we called back in the days SkatePunk or Independent music with which we were refering to Bad Religion, Slime etc.

I listen either energetic music with good melodies (by which I do not mean beat, rhyme, sound, vocals, etc :rolleyes: ). The best example of this is Sonata Arctica's "Broken" -thus far the best song I have heard. After that, it's Evanescence, Nightwish, Radio Head, Mew 156, and several up-north artists. What I really hate are bands like Backstreet Boys, Spice Girls, Five, and so on (mass "Love Pop" :nolike: )

Fri, 26th Mar '04, 7:53pm
Pink Floyd, The Police, Thin Lizzy, The Doors, Dire Straits, The Clash, Jimi, instrumental rock, trance, hh and garage. I do hate pop music so very much though.

Generally depends on my mood...but usually varies between classical/new age/soundtrack/celtic, to alternative/rock/metal/hard rock....
I listen to too many bands in general to list all of the ones I like, but two of my favourites (and those that I listen to most often) are Nightwish and Iron Maiden.

Y'all need to go MORE indie...

All of your favorites are too popular!

Come on, we all know what the old equation is.

Popular = bad.

If anybody else has heard of it, I don't want to listen to it.

I really like:
Children of Bodom

Well, I'm currently having a complete overhaul of my musical tastes - which means my list is very short - and that I have very few CDs of these bands.
But anyhow:
Within Temptation
After Forever
Nightwish
Evanescence
Lacuna Coil
Entwine

Then there are the bands that I have a vaguer liking for such as:
Fuel (older stuff)
A Perfect Circle
Silverchair

And some mroe bands which I can't remember the name of currently.

Why does black spooky Scandinavian goth metal rock whatever keep popping up in these posts?

Anyways, I think that At the Drive-in deserves a mark here. You don't get a lot of good creative rock bands from Texas, let alone El Paso.

Why does Evenessence keep showing up in this thread. I'm sorry I just hate her whiney voice.

I was going to make a list, but I'm to lazy and 90% of you probablly hadn't head of 90% of the bands. So I basically picked my top fav's in Strung Out and Led Zep.

Full out Electronic music for me:
House, tech-house, funky-house, electro-house, new acid house.
Techno, the synthy/musical and percussive varieties. And of course Detroit Techno!
Breakbeat and Tribal variations of the above too.
All types of Electronica.
I also love my more chilled out ambient variations of the above.

If anyone else likes electronic music, check out this site, it's awesome! Some of the example samples are bit outdated though...the scene is constantly evolving.

I love my precious, precious ska music. Which is damn irritating, since it's pretty hard to acquire said music over this side of the channel. Stuff like:

Reel Big Fish
Catch 22
Streelight Manifesto
King Prawn
Save Ferris
Kemuri
Lightyear
Mad Caddies
Madness
Suburban Legends

And so on.

Course, I like other stuff too, largely rock and punk, but ska's my first love.

InMe
The Killers

Muse
Lostprophets
