Favourite music

So this might have been done before, but not for a long time, and since some have left, and we have new people now, here goes. What sort of music do you love?
For me it is chilled music, like Enigma, Loreena McKennit, Enya and so on. The reason for asking is my taste have really changed in the past year. I was going through my music and I threw away over 10 hard rock cds. Like Motorhead, Deep Purple, Iron Maiden. I still kept a few like Alice Cooper, but it has really shrunk on that side.

 

All kinds of metal music: hard&heavy, trash, power (some of it), black, death, doom, gothic.
Fav bands:
Katatonia, My Dying Bride, Death, Iced Earth, Candlemass, Theatre Of Tragedy, King Diamond

 

Happy music, mostly, and some less happy stuff. Punk, rock, power metal and some cheesy music.

Edguy, NOFX, AFI, Dropkick Murphys, AC/DC, Guns N' Roses, Eric Clapton, Journey, Alkaline Trio, Jimmy Eat World, Sonata Arctica, Le Tigre, Dashboard Confessional, Goo Goo Dolls, Helloween, Funeral For A Friend.

Not all of that is happy, and some of it (Goo Goo Dolls in particular, though most of their stuff is happier) can really depress me. But music is for feeling and all that.

 

Hard Rock, Rock, Metal, Hardcore, (some) Metalcore.

Bands: (I'll list one or two from each genre)
Pulse Ultra, The Buzzhorn, Our Lady Peace, Throwdown, Chimaira, Darkest Hour, All That Remains... and of course the classics like Pink Floyd and U2.

 

Everything and anything - listen to Enrique Iglesias, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Hayley Westenra, Green Day, Nightwish, Stratovarious, Children of Bodom, the Pentangle, Heather Alexander, David Bowie, anything Broadway....

I like music. Plain and simple

 

1970s classic rock: KISS, Lynard Skynard, BTO, Alice Cooper, Heart, Pat Benetar, etc. And 1980s pop: Madonna, Duran Duran, etc.

 

Rock and hard rock of late 60s and 70s in all its forms (pure hard rock, psychedelic, southern, progressive etc).
Classic heavy metal and power metal of 80s.
Some american thrash metal bands, I've never liked european thrash.
Some greek artistic/folk music.

 

Mostly House and Electronic stuff. But also plenty besides.

 

Classic rock. Jazz.

Death metal....Not

 

Symphony X, Stratovarius, Rhapsody, Hammerfall, David Bowie, Marc Bolan and T-REX, Weird Al, Enya, Enigma, Within Temptation, Sisters of Mercy, Iron Maiden, Dr Dre and Snoop, lots of stuff.

 

Tool, System of a Down, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Alan Parson Project, Wagner and Mozart... that's pretty much about it.
I like my music dynamic.

Folk music, Softer rock (like The Beatles, Counting Crows, U2, the less heavy Smashing Pumpkins stuff), and some classical music. Oh yea, and showtunes

 

Mostly metal, but there are oddities here and there in other genres that I like as well.

Some bands in my shelf: Megadeth, Slayer, Testament, Anthrax, Pantera, Down, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Alice In Chains...

 

What Kuemper and Splunge said. Plus Hayley Westenra.

 

House, Trance, Techno, Chillout, Opera, some D'N'B, Metal, Hard Rock, Prog Rock, Baroque, Operetta, Symphony. Though I will mainly listen to the first 5 listed.

 

Heh, do you think you missed out any genres?

 

Hmmm...

I grew up listening to '80s alternitive bands, like the Cure, and anything that's on 'The Wedding Singer' soundtrack.

Then I got in to Sublime, Let's Go Bowling, Hepcat, Reel Big Fish, and other ska/grunge bands.

Then there was the '90s craze...The Smashing Pumkins, R.H.C.P., The Offspring, Green Day, Lit, 311, and Blink 182.

When I started high school, I got introduced to heavy metal. The guys I knew started my off on the easy side, giving me a taste of Metallica's 'Black', 'Load', and 'Re-Load' albums. From that pint since, I've been hooked on heavy metal. I've also opened up to '70s and '80 hard rock and heavy metal.

Currently, you'll mostlyme listening to Megadeth, Rob Zombie, ZZ Top, Guns N' Roses, Ozzy/Black Sabbath, Bob Marley, Motley Crue, Ratt, and some Queensryche.

I still listen to some of everything I used to listen to when I was growing up thouhg...but I bet that's more than you wanted to know.

 

@Tak yes pop, punk, thrash, death etc and most modern metal. rap, hip-hop, r'n'b, euro-pop, break-beats for starters

 

hehe, ok ok. Can't say I fault you for that.

 

Right now, I'm really into the John Butler Trio and Ben Harper. Their technical guitar skill is amazing and their music just turns everything else I listen to upside down and inside out.

They're just a couple of my favourites, though, I still love Led Zeppelin with an unhealthy passion
