quote:Bah, grunge is your soulmate, then. Actually, I don't mind emo; I really don't see why people bash it so much. I've even come grudgingly to like Jimmy Eat World, although I haven't bought their album. If you want to crucify someone for whining go after the "Dad, why didn't you love me?" crowd (Linkin Park, Staind), or the "Stupid government/parents/corporations always telling me what to do" cohort (Antiflag et al, even Greenday of late), or System of a Down, which combines the two. In my music, I always prefer abstract angst to trite family drama or stupid politics.

No R&B/Soul option? Shame on you. I listen mainly to hip-hop, rap, and R&B, with a little reggaeton thrown in. My favorite artists are probably Biggie, Ludacris, Alicia Keys, TI, Kanye, Tamia, and pretty much anything that sounds good. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy desperance.net - We're Everywhere ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

The All Your Base flash movie, and the LotR Movie Soundtrack (only good thing about the movie, but that's a different argument) That is all I ever listen to if I can avoid it. -------------------- ~Note : The professional newbie's advice should not be taken seriously, or at all.~ LINKAGE Posts: 364 | Registered: Saturday, January 17 2004 08:00 |

I really enjoy the soundtrack to the movie 'Hook'. I'm probably biased though because I learned the music in my symphony orchestra. I usually group orchestral soundtracks in with classical music in my own mind, probably because it's played pretty much the same way. Mr. Holland's Opus and ET are good soundtracks too. I haven't listened to the LotR soundtrack seperate from watching the movie. I think I'd have to inorder to appreciate it fully. 'Bout time I got out the movie and watched it again, too. :) -------------------- Forever Always on Past the End tracihedlund@charter.net[/url] TrueSite for Blades - Blades Walkthroughs Pixle Profusion - BoE Graphics Archive Posts: 563 | Registered: Tuesday, July 27 2004 07:00 |

:) Slint is good stuff, and also hail from my hometown of Louisville, KY. I remember hearing them live back when I was in middle school. EDIT: In fact, owing to the memory you helped conjur, Morgan, I just went to Amazon and purchased the "Spiderland" CD (back in the day, I had the album on a bootleg cassette, which has long since worn away).

quote:I know. My polls always seem to be lacking, especially in the 'Favorite Author' poll. Now that I think of it, the bands I named before were the bands/singers I have on my MP3 player. I also like Sum41, but because my CD's of them are burnt, I can't convert them to .MP3.

I voted for "Other", and "Alternative". Whatever Depeche Mode can be defined as, it wasn't on the list. My favourite bands right now are Depeche Mode, Yaz (Yazoo if you're outside North America), and The Smiths. That's not to say I don't like music by any other bands, though. Those three are just the ones I'm most obsessed with (and particularly Depeche Mode and Yaz). -------------------- Chance Forums I was once member #2475, but then my account was deleted because of a bug.

If Hitler were alive today, he'd listen to The Cure, The Smiths, and Depeche Mode. Anyway, here's the list of all the bands/artists in my Music and Music\Videos folders. Some have only one song in the folder, some have nearly a hundred. The ones with asterisks are my favorites. *AC/DC Aerosmith AFI Agent Orange The Allman Brothers Band The Almighty Doer of Stuff (me, obviously) a band whose name rhymes with Banal Punt, from whom I got the quote at the top of this post The Ataris Bad Religion Barnes & Barnes *The Beatles (one song w. Eric Clapton) The BeeGees Big Poo Generator *Billy Joel The Black Mages- One of the two songs is clearly not The Black Mages, but I don't know who did it (an orchestrated version of FF7's "J-E-N-O-V-A") and the other is Otherworld from FFX, which I'm not sure if it's The Black Mages but might be. Black Sabbath Blue Öyster Cult Bon Jovi The Brothers Chaps, one w. They Might Be Giants and several w. Y-O-U Carly Simon Chuck Berry Coheed & Cambria The Commodores Cream Creedance Clearwater Revival *The Darkness Dazz Band Deep Purple Derek and the Dominoes The Devils (me, my cousin Joe, my sister Leah, my brother Robert, filmed by my cousin Matt) Dire Straits The Doors Dream Theater The Eagles Edvard Grieg, performed by Pavel Sorokin and The Lublin Radio Symphony Orchestra and Svetlana Potanina Eighteen Visions *Electric Light Orchestra Electric Six Emerson, Lake & Palmer Eric Clapton w. Sting & Billy Joel Famous Last Words Ffej and His All Stars Flogging Molly The Foo Fighters *The Four Tops Frank Zappa George Harrison George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Jeff Lynne, Eric Clapton, Elton John & Phil Collins (quite a star-studded concert, IMO) The Goo Goo Dolls The Grateful Dead Green Day Guns 'N' Roses Harvey Danger The J. Geils Band The Jimi Hendrix Experience Jimmy Buffet Jimmy Eat World Joe Satriani *John Lennon Keith Moon The Kinks Kiss The Knack Korn Kumi Tanioka Led Zeppelin The Letter Kills Letterday Lynyrd Skynyrd Me First and The Gimme Gimmes Metallica Missy Palmer w. The Brothers Chaps Modest Mouse Motley Crüe Mudvayne Naoshi Mizuta Neil Young, one w. Crazy Horse Nena Nirvana *Nobuo Uematsu NOFX Oasis The O'Jays Ome Henk Ozzy Osbourne, one w. Yngwie Malmsteen Pantera Pantera, E.S.T, Black Crowes, Metallica & ACDC Paul McCartney and The Wings, one just Paul and no Wings Pearl Jam Peter Gabriel Pink Floyd POOPS Queen, one w. David Bowie Race The Sun Radiohead Rage Against The Machine Rammstein The Ramones Revolver Ringo Starr, one w.

Rock Heavy Metal and Opera (because of Therion) Dont really like anything else. Mostly listen to: Therion (especially) Skinny Puppy (forgot to count them, whoops) GWAR Pink Floyd Amon Amarth -------------------- People says Microsoft paid 14 million dollars for using the Rolling Stones song "Start me up" in their commercials. This is wrong. Microsoft paid 14 million dollars only for a part of the song. For instance, they didn't use the line "You'll make a grown man cry".

quote:Depeche Mode...are they the band that sing 'Personal Jesus'? I'm pretty sure they are. LlamaGod, your music preferences have a pretty wide gap, no offence. Rock, Heavy Metal, to Opera. I havn't heard much Opera in my time, so I'm not sure wether is is good or not. I have heard a bit of Michael Buble, but I'm not sure wether or not he classifies as opera. -------------------- I'll put a Spring in your step.

I don't really by music much as well. The last decent album I purchased was Songs For The Deaf by Queens Of The Stone Age. I will also some-day soon buy their new album, Lullabies To Paralyze. -------------------- I'll put a Spring in your step. Polaris Posts: 2396 | Registered: Saturday, January 29 2005 08:00 |

I don't have much money, so I don't usually buy albums. Once I do have the money I probably will though. The last CD I purchased was Famous Last Words' "Everything You Wanted But Could Never Have" EP, which was $5. The next CD purchases I hope to make are the Final Fantasy VII OST, The Beatles Revolver album, and The Darkness's album, Maximum Darkness: The Unauthorized Biography Of The Darkness. Maybe something from ELO too.

I haven't bought a CD in some time. They cost $20 and most of the time I only like about a third of the songs. With MP3s being so accessible these days it's just easier to download music. -------------------- Nena Posts: 2032 | Registered: Wednesday, January 26 2005 08:00 |
