What sort of music do you like?

[Loupgaros]

Another new topic! Lets get to know each other eh? Okay, its more a way for me to break in, but I'm not a very good convo starter in life so I'm doing it this way.

Basic question: What sort of music do you listen to?

Me? I'm more the proggy sort. I like Pink Floyd, Genesis (Peter Gabriel years- I'm one of those fans who demarcates what they like), Yes, Barclay James Harvest, Porcupine Tree (still listening to Fear of a Blank Planet) and many many many more. But I also like to listen to some electronic stuff. It just has the slight sound of militaria about it, especially early New Order and later Depeche Mode. I have more but I don't want to scare people off with a huge list! *laughs*

I'm very much into Metal, Punk, Industrial, and Hardcore.

Fave bands at the moment include: Megadeth, Rammstein, Zeromancer, Rage Against the Machine, Machine Head, Dragonforce, and AFI.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that I'm on Last.fm too. Diesel's reply reminded me.

I'm here.

Dragonforce are funneh. I think it is a little Spinal Tap at times but otherwise a great band.

[Avalanche]

Trance and Chillout mainly.

Music with a good beat and preferably no words like Gigi D'Agostino (thanks to Big Blue Fox ) or Sandstorm by Darude and bands like Chicane, Snow Patrol are my favourite.

Jean Michel Jarre's electronica  is my all time favourite music, hes a legend!

I'm pretty easy-going when it comes to music, I'll listen to anything that's got a decent melody behind it, though I'm mainly into 80s AOR.  I like a bit o' jazz and funk, too    My most-listened artistes tend to be Tears For Fears, Scritti Politti, Marillion, Hue and Cry, The Stranglers, Phil Collins and Level 42, so a fairly mixed bag!

Btw, if any o' youse are on last.fm, add meh!

[Shep]

Virtually anything, apart from top 40 stuff, shoe-gazing guitar bands such as Coldplay, rap and what passes these days for R&B. Most music I like comes from the 1970-1990 period

*plays "Whole Lotta Love" by Led Zepplin for you.*

Now, that's a song!

I'm with Shep on this one   I'll listen to pretty much anything, most particularly stuff that is pre-1990.  Favourite artist is probably either Queen, Pink Floyd or Jethro Tull (primarily 'cos they did a song called "Bungle in the Jungle"; well worth a listen!)

[Wolfie Fox]

Rock, random stuff from the 80's and Vocal Trance from 90's and 00's

[Blaster2]

I'm into 80's, most 90's, Heavy Metal, and, newly discovered, Power Metal (DragonForce especially!)

I love Tears for Fears. Political while still pop-friendly, which is not easy to pull off these days. Protest songs can look a bit too obvious or sound just too.. self-righteous, but a few bands can get away with being political without being too far in the self-righteous realm.

[Benny Brownpaws]

Aside from R'n'B, rap, hip-hop, trance, elctronica and their ilk, I like anything and everything.

[Cerebus]

Rammstein!

[Tori Belliachi]

Anything really. Though classical, trip-hop, dance, electronica, indie rock, anything else really.
