Captain Minimate Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I love Green Day. And Five for Fighting. And Nickelback. And The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. And Simple Plan. And Seether. And Black Stone Cherry. And finally, Evanesence. I really like Ramallah's song: Days of Revenge. I also really like Switchfoot's song: Oh! Gravity. And Slipknot's song: Psychosocial.

Trekker 42 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I'm old-school. KISS (LoooooOOOve gun!), Bon Jovi (OHHHHH We're halfway there, ohhhOH Livin' on a prayer.), Queen (Scaramouche, scaramouche, can you do the fandango?), Poison (How can I resist?), Michael Jackson (No one's gonna save you from the thing with 40 eyes girl), Eagles (Such a lovely face...), and Frank Sinatra (Yes it was My Way.). Some newer stuff that I like are Muse (Burn, you will burn!), Dragonforce (On a cold winter morning, in the time before the light...) and, well, not much. New music kinda sucks.

Shup Dude Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 (edited) I like some songs by Bon Jovi, like Livin' on a Prayer. My favorite bands are Disturbed, Metallica, Slipknot, Korn, Three Days Grace, Three Doors Down, Breaking Benjamin, System of a Down, Iron Maiden, the older Linkin Park (there are a couple of Linkin Park's newer songs that I like), etc. Basically I like hard core/alternative/metal. Oh, and I can't stand rap or country. Rock all the way! Edited December 16, 2008 by Shup Dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 (edited) Allison Krauss (all), Pat Benatar, Bon Jovi, Hot Waffles, Dean Martic, Frank Sinatra, the 007 soundtrack collection, Metallica S&M, Terminator soundtracks, TF:TM and random anime crap and/or other songs make up essentially my entire collection.

Man, why is everyone so down on country? I was raised on old country. The new stuff is too much like everything else for me, but places like 97.1 remind us of what country should be. But I have rarely met anyone aside from people in my neighborhood that like country (on Sunday afternoon everyone works in the yard/on their cars/whatever, and all the radios around here are turned up and tuned into 97.1) But every time I mention it, I get flack. Just try saying you's like a country version of guitar hero. See how fast you get jumpped on. It's insane! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpheon Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Ugh. "Bands." I do not like listening to people trying to "sing" unless it was a recording from over fifty years ago, or a choir, so my list of faves is composers. Never bands. I have a few favorite orchestras (London Symphony and Seattle), but in terms of groups...nada. I greatly enjoy: Jesper Kyd (SOME of his...a lot of it's just noise) Clint Bajakian (oldies, but darn goodies) Jared Emerson-Johnson (small body of work, but good stuff) Pyotr Tchaikovsky (I'll admit, I don't listen to as much classical as I should, but when I am, it's Pete) Harry Gregson-Williams A "duh" one: Martin O'Donnell (and his sidekick, Michael Salvatori) John Williams (to a point) Steve Jablonsky Hans Zimmer Kevin Riepl Of course, Koji Kondo Yoko Shimamura Shawn K. Clement Jeremy Soule Mark Griskey Randy Newman The late Jerry Goldsmith (God rest his soul) III (They only arrange works, true, but they do a good job) Inon Zur ...and that's about all I can think of off the top of my head.

karamazov80 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Ben Folds I used to be a Ben Folds freak. I saw the Ben Folds Five in concert right after I graduated high school (1998), and it was one of the best live shows I've ever seen, which is saying something (I LOVE live music, and have seen a lot of it). My favorites are all over the place: -The Police (favorite band of all times) -The Beatles -Tom Waits -Slayer -Astral Project -Chick Corea -Tony Rice -Bela Fleck (with or without the Flecktones) -Bill Evans (pianist) -(the Amazing) Jimmy Smith -Thelonious Monk -Queen -Gram Parsons -Wilco -Ray Charles -Ministry -Parliament Funkadelic -The Jackson Five -The Pixies -Randy Travis -Marvin Gaye -Throwing Muses -The (Funky) Meters -Acid Bath -everything in-between Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Harris Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 (edited) Ben Folds Regina Spektor Liz Phair Ben Kweller Minus the Bear Band of Horses Pinback the new Radio head is awesome.... if you don't know these bands, i weep for you. moc847 Nice bands and artists, MoC! I love the way Mrs. Spektor sings. And the Sha Sha Album by Mr. Kweller was sweet as well. And brother karamazov is into Monk, hm? (And you wanted to be minimaterized with an issue of ISQ in the other thread. You're getting more and more interesting, man!) Anyway, Monk is outstanding, no question. Even though I love Miles Davis and John Coltrane (A Love Suprem is awesome!) as well. Do you know the ? Svensson died tragically this summer, just two weeks before I'd have seen them live for a second time. The are the most groundbreaking modern jazz trio I've ever listend to! Next to these jazzers I do love Sufjan Stevens Broken Social Scene Mogwai Godspeed You! Black Emperor Beirut Neil Young The go team The Beatles (the late stuff) Sonic Youth Beach Boys The Who Motorpsycho And for the classics I'll go with the orchestral works by Gustav Mahler AntonÃn Dvořák Pjotr Iljitsch Tschaikowsky (you all know the unbelievable Overture 1812 from the V like Vendetta movie, don't you?) Edvard Grieg Richard Wagner (sometimes) Hans Zimmer John Williams Howard Shore Edited December 16, 2008 by Bob Harris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buttheadsmate Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 David Bowie! I love Life On Mars! I was literally dragged to a Ziggy Stardust concert in 1973 ish. Why the hell would I want to see David 'Whoever'? I have been a life-long fan ever since & if aliens are indeed amongst us .....he is one for certain. No emoticon added....... I am serious!

Dan Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I love Pendulum at the moment. I'd never been into Drum and Bass until I heard them. I saw them 'in concert' about 2 weeks ago and it was the most epic gig of my life. I also love Funeral for a Friend, Lostprophets, My Chemical Romance, and now not so muhc, but Green Day and Bullet for my Valentine, all of which I have seen live. My all time favourite artist is Sam Duckworth, better known as get cape. wear cape. fly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadpool Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Well, were I to compile a list of bands I listen to, it would have to include: My Chemical Romance Bright Eyes Say Anything Green Day System of a Down Mindless Self Indulgence Queen Panic at the Disco Billy Talent the pillows Bowling for Soup Trocadero The Beatles Fall Out Boy Slipknot ...That's a good start.

NorthRaider Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Most of the bands I listen to are already mentioned here but I'd just like to add some Smashing Pumpkins, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Beck, old-school Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Led Zep, The Smiths, The Who... not to mention all the great local bands here that I love. I also have some stuff by My Morning Jacket, Massive Attack, Joy Division and The Roots. (I guess I also have some wildly random tastes.) Also, I just got myself some albums by Elliott Smith and The Cure today... am about to load them onto my iPod for the holidays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blacksun1520 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Well I'm a hip hop head myself, mostly underground stuff that isn't played on the radio. Yes "crap" as most people call it. I don't like country music so much, but I don't say it sucks, because it it good music and there are lots of talented country singers, I just don't happen to like listening to it. I also like some rock bands and a little jazz, but it's 92% hip hop on my ipod. So here are some of my favorite groups: Linkin Park/Fort Minor Blink 182 John Legend Radiohead Aesop Rock The Perceptionists Beastie Boys A Tribe Called Quest BDP Common De La Soul EPMD Wu Tang Clan Hieroglyphics Jurassic 5 Talib Kweli Symmetry Mos Def Nas The Procussions Rhymefest RJD2 The Roots Nelly Furtado Mobb Deep Blackalicious BS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsprin Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 (edited) No Dave Matthews Band, Jack Jonhson, Ben Harper, Phish? Am I the only near hippy here? Maybe it's a west coast thing... Course being in Seattle gotta love Pear Jam, Nirvana, Foo Fighters, Blind Melon, Black Crowes. Edited December 17, 2008 by rsprin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Paramore: Misery Business (in Acoustic) John Williams: March (Raiders ) All Time Low: Six Feet Under the Stars Hugh Neal: Casino Royale (not the movie theme) Ozzy Osbourne: Iron Man The White Stripes: Icky Thump Billy Joel: Piano Man Metro Station: Shake It Wierd Al Yankovic: The Saga Begins (star wars fans NEED to hear this ) Coldplay: Viva La Vida Twilight Zone Radio Dramas: 5 Figures in Search of an Exit Alexz Johnson: Don't You Dare/Fade to Black (it's a tie) Disturbed: The Curse Lostprophets: Rooftops ( A Liberation Broadcast) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Billy Joel: Piano Man Wierd Al Yankovic: The Saga Begins (star wars fans NEED to hear this ) Now these two are total awesome pwnage on a stick (to quote a friend of mine.) I add one here: Weird Al's Ode to a Superhero. Spider-Man fans need to hear that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handsomedevil Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 I am a musician myself and I have some seriously diverse musical tastes. That being said, I'd have to say my favorites bands are... the Ramones & Kiss I have hundreds of CDs and picking one or two (or twenty for that matter!) favorite bands/artists is a horribly unfair endeavor. I feel like I've just betrayed the rest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinimateEspo25 Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 you know i keep remembering more and more favorite bands, so let me just say, if its rock, metal or alternative, i'll probably like it, with exceptions of course (i.e. i forgot to mention other awesome bands like kiss, black sabbath, ozzy, etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
