I put punk. That was the closest thing, I'd say. "Underground bands" could also describe, but some people have differing definitions. I listen to the wide varieties of punk, pop-punk, emo, and underground rock. [ Saturday, August 13, 2005 13:01: Message edited by: demonslaeyr ] -------------------- The critics agree!

Well, I answered "Pop," but keep in mind that I rarely listen to a damn thing made after '79. I am a classic pop/rock fan, but I have a soft spot for progressive rock as well. In terms of my favorite artists: The Beatles; John Lennon; George Harrison; Paul McCartney; Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young; Traffic; The Kinks; Steely Dan; Chicago; The Zombies; Argent; King Crimson; Gentle Giant; The Beach Boys; Cream; Blind Faith; Derek And The Dominos; The Hollies; The Byrds; Jefferson Airplane; Simon & Garfunkel; Procol Harum; Soft Machine; and Marvin Gaye. There are others, but they're all marginal so I opted to leave them unlisted.

I like a lot of music. I like rock, I like classic rock (similar to Stug), but I guess techno is my favorite. -------------------- I'll put a Spring in your step. Polaris Posts: 2396 | Registered: Saturday, January 29 2005 08:00 |

You left out Classical; that is what I listen to most of the time, if I listen to music at all (while I draw, script…). From time to time I listen to Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, or other music of that nature.

Rock. Think "The Strokes" for what's nearest to what I dig most for the time being. Posts: 2242 | Registered: Saturday, April 10 2004 07:00 |

I listen to classic rock (also similar to stug) and I also listen to some newer rock and some old pop is good, although the new pop is just really annoying. Favourite bands would be - Queen Led Zepplin Deep Purple Metallica Powerman 5000 Presidents of the USA Pink Floyd Poison Beatles Thats pretty much all I can rememeber. Favourite song would have to be total eclipse of the heart by bonnie tyler. That song is the ultimate drunk song. EDIT: Forgot to include Beatles. I'll put that in now.

Classical, by which I mean the occasional Renaissance piece, a great deal of Baroque and Classical, and some Romantic. —Alorael, who will insist on subdividing his music if you insist on subdividing yours. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

I listen to a little of everything, including, by themselves and in various combinations, and in no particular order: Rock Rock And Roll Hard Rock R&B (the good kind, not the hip-hop crap they call R&B these days) Punk Emo Pop (no modern pop though, ugh) Hip Hop (pretty much just Gym Class Heroes, an Emo/Hip-Hop band, and a little of Eminem's stuff is bearable, but none of the early 90s crap like Vanilla Ice and MC Hammer, ugh) Grindcore Metal Disco Classical -------------------- The Lyceum - The Headquarters of the Blades designing community The Louvre - The Blades of Avernum graphics database Alexandria - The Blades of Exile Scenario database BoE Webring - Self explanatory Polaris - Free porn here Odd Todd - Fun for the unemployed (and everyone else too) Famous Last Words - A local pop-punk band They Might Be Giants - Four websites for one of the greatest bands in existance -------------------- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Posts: 2957 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

Ah yes, it's been a while since this topic sprang up. Alternative rock all the way, as usual. Preferably with Dave Matthews Band and Fastball out in front. Among others, Hot Hot Heat, Jet, Straylight Run, Smash Mouth, and The Killers. Favorite song: "Human Torch" by Fastball -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice. I hate undead.

Yes, rock is popular. However, I am surprised that so many people consider classical music their favourite musicstyle. I mean, I also listen to classical music, and my favourite piece is the Troisième Gymnopédie by Eric Satir(Anyone else ever hear about this guy? No? Didn't think so.) But Hard Rock is my main focus in life. Oh, and how does "Rock" differ from "Rock and Roll"? -------------------- -Step aside, worthy adversary! -T'is but a scratch! -A scratch! Your arms off!

I like classicalmost, but it's not on the list (?). I picked rock, because I like hard rock and the likes. Some of my fav. artists are: Nightwish, Iron Maiden, Stratovarius, Falconer and Motorhead. -------------------- How many shapers are there? Why is Drypeak controlled by Zakary?

I voted "Alternative Rock". But really, none of the labels fitted... My lists of bands/artists include... Radiohead The Smiths Morrissey Muse Pamela Wyn Shannon The Beatles Queen Blur The Killers The Jam Madness Massive Attack ...and two local bands "Scream Culture" and "Better than Fishing". "Scream Culture is the better of the two, and has a hot front woman...

I always thought I'd find more screamo people here. That is, until I got to know people. Then the "classical" genre seemed to me to be the most widespread. Speaking of local bands, Shrimp Shack Sunrise (ska) plays tonight... And Sullivan (emo, and a personal favorite) plays Wednesday. I only advertise SSS because all the members are personal friends. I don't like ska, but whatyagunnado? -------------------- The critics agree! Demonslayer is "a five star hit!" raves TIMES Weekly! "I've never heard such thoughtful comments.

My favorite kind of music is baroque: Domenico Scarlatti (who wrote 555 fantastic little sonatas for the harpsichord), J.S. Bach (especially the Brandenburg Concertos), and Handel (harp concertos, The Messiah, Water Music, etc.). I also like Celtic harp music, especially as played by Laurie Riley, but any kind of traditional Celtic music is also nice, even bagpipes. I also like some of the newer stuff that uses Celtic themes as a starting point. I used to listen to the Beatles a lot, but not so much any more. Enya is one of the few contemporary artists I enjoy. I also like Terry Riley and Philip Glass (whatever the heck they're classified as!). Riley's In C is one of the greatest pieces of music ever created. Glass' soundtracks to Koyaanisqatsi and Powaqqatsi are his best. Wendy (aka Walter) Carlos is another—she does synthesized classical, but also very unusual original compositions (Tales of Heaven and Hell). I have her to thank for introducing me to Scarlatti, Bach, etc., when I was 6 years old or so as my dad listened to his old hi-fi records. -------------------- The A.E. van Vogt Information Site My Tribute to the Greatest Writer of the Science Fiction Golden Age Posts: 907 | Registered: Monday, July 15 2002 07:00 |
