What music do you listen to?

There's a whole lotta old school on this thread.

My favourite bands would have to be.... Rise Against, cKy, Bayside, Scary Kids Scaring Kids, Rammstein, Billy Talent, Reggie and the Full Effect, Finch, Chiodis, Emery, Chronic Future, Mindless Self Indulgence, Jimmy Eat World, Forgive Durden, Lorene Drive, Nightmare of You, Motion City Soundtrack, Modest Mouse, The Matches, Scissor Sisters, The Getaway Plan and Brand New.

And then there's also Lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake, T-Pain, The Lonely Island, Kate Miller-Heidke, Dido, Eminem, La Roux and so on and so on.

I also LOVE musicals, so that's in there as well.

:D

I'm still on a really long Jason Mraz Kick, he's phenomenal live and improvs way better than anyone should... and he does this: http://www.archive.org/details/JasonMraz

Nothing like POOP TONNES OF FREE MUSIC for listening - legally!

Dave Mathews
Yann Tiersen
Temptations
Libera
Herbie Handcock
Queen
Michael Jackson
The Beatles (of course)
Zeppelin (duh)
Allman Brothers Band

Right there with ya Cliche.

Sampling of some random stuff I like, in no particular order, including some relatively common stuff, some obscure stuff, some new, some old, 100% schizophrenic:

Cephalic Carnage (sorta math metal, but kind of unclassifiable)
Franz Liszt
The Devil Makes Three
Napalm Death (for as long as I can remember)
Sage Francis
Hatebreed
Common
Slayer
Thievery Corporation
Faith No More / Mr. Bungle / Secret Chiefs 3
Megadeth
Massive Attack
Testament
Old Crow Medicine Show
Dead Kennedys
Brujeria (Winner of "Most Brutal Mosh Pit of My Life") Which reminds me, RIP: The Pound, SF :(
Tchaikovsky
At The Gates
Ministry
Brother Ali
Patsy Cline
Lamb of God
Ravi Shankar (sp? Tabla drumming basically)
Therapy? (The single best band that no one in the US listens to any more)
Atmosphere
Necrophagist (Math Metal of the highest order)
Skinny Puppy
Johnny Cash
The Dillinger Escape Plan (More math metal, noticing a trend? ;) )
Hendrix
Death (Arguably the reason that death metal is called death metal.)
Zeppelin
Acid Bath (Another one hard to categorize. Swamp-core comes close.)
Pennywise
John Lee Hooker (Without whom no one would know the name George Thorogood)
Behemoth (Polish Extremist Metal)
Tom Waits
Kalmah


I could probably do this for a good couple of hours. In fact, I'm sitting here sipping coffee and thinking of all the great stuff I didn't list:

Apocalyptica
Light This City (Best female metal vocalist I can think of in the Thrash/Death department)
Bad Religion
Anthrax
Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Pink Floyd


Yeah. I like music.
