What kind of music do you listen to?

[HomeYield]

Me, I like anything fast with technical guitar melodies. From bluegrass to heavy metal, if it has good guitar then I'm there.

Currently listening to the new Tool.

[fshanda]

Alternative, Rock,Rap or Funk. Better yet I like a combination of all 4. Lately been listening to The Beatnuts, DelaSoul, Linkin Park, Beastie Boys, The Roots and some Bob Marley when im feeling mellow. Even listen to a little classical when im in the mood. I was jammin to some Parliment Funkadelic on the way to work this morning. Nothing like listening to a little of the Fathers of Funk to get you going in the morning.

[crazyray]

The blues ain't nothin' but a good man feelin' bad... http://www.sysopt.com/forum/biggrin.gif

[blind to truth]

I listen to oldschool punk rawk, death metal, and grunge. I can't stand today's music. Favourite bands: Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, Vandals, Nirvana, Six Feet Under, Suicidal Tendancies.

[korgul]

Heavy Metal. Have been listening to the new Static X lately. Fav. band Megadeth.

Down with the new Metallica. Anything past Master of Puppets is not worth listening to.

[Kuasimodem]

Mozart to Manson

Skipping Disco http://www.sysopt.com/forum/frown.gif

[RobRich]

Mostly "back in the day" heavy metal, like Ozzie, old Metallica, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, AC/DC, etc.

I also listen to trance, rave, hiphop, blues, classical, and just anything that has a decent bass line. However, no country!

[sharder8]

Late 50's to early 60's! :0

Classical when in the mood, onary, mad, etc!

Harder

[Warthog]

My own term - "medium rock" bands, like Creed, Lifehouse, Fuel, 3 Doors Down...NOT really heavy like Korn, Pantera, etc (don't like those). I listen to those kinds of bands mostly.

Some old popular stuff - 50's, 60's, 70's when I want some easy listening music.

Some Christian stuff - Audio Adrenaline, Newsboys, DC Talk.

Some instrumental stuff (kind of rare to listen to, but I still have it).

Warthog

[bigdadday]

The 60's were the days of my music so I guess that is my choice but I have expanded to other types as music is a way to feel good and while working I need to feel as good as I can as I hate it. http://www.sysopt.com/forum/wink.gif BD

[charmler]

NO **** but anything else in the background is cool. Favorite is early 70's type rock (classic rock) and country. I have a musical background so I also like Classical, Piano, Jazz and the original R&B. Dance music mostly sucks but I will dance to it. Black mans Blues rules. Dump the **** and bring it back.

[surrealchereal]

OK, here's some of my stuff..

Everlast
Moby
Godsmack
SevenDust
Creed
Yellow** hee hee (Zebra being a fav!)
John Prine
Flatt and Scruggs
Don Wilson and the Bluegrass Boys
Sublime (first CD only BEFORE the commercial ****)
Rob Zombie (The industrial stuff)
Suicide Machines (for when I have a headache)
Radiohead
Indian Pop (not a group a genre, Pop music in English from India)

It's what is in my car this week.

[jad1097]

Just about anything but the country noise ****. How can people call that noise music?!

[rh71]

MetallicA.

[eagle1]

Hmmm.. well.. coming from a very diversified bloodline, and a family full of musicians I think I like almost any kind of music but my faves are:

Salsa --&gt; Typical music here in P.R.
Fav. artists: Hector Lavoe, Ruben Blades(yes, the actor), Marc Anthony (yep, another actor), Gilberto Santarosa.

Punk --&gt;Bad Religion, MxPx, NOFX, The Ramones, etc.

Emo --&gt;The Get Up Kids, Yellowcard (cool stuff, emo + violin = cool), Dashboard Confessional (all acoustic), Face to Face (which could be classified in punk).

Metal or Hard Rock--&gt; Ozzy, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, AC/DC, Def Leppard, etc..

Rap--&gt; Favorite artist= 2pac, Wu Tang.

I really don't like much of what's on todays radios (all of them "rockers" that all they do is rapping along the song-- I mean, rock should stay in rock and rap in rap!!!) and that hip hop and those 5 boy groups...!!ahhrrgghhhh!!!

[krusty the klown]

Some good choices there, club_med http://www.sysopt.com/forum/biggrin.gif

~ I'm not saying that some choices are bad.... just not herad of them http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif

[HfdWolfPack]

Mozart to Manson
Skipping Disco


DITTO
Skip country heehaw, too http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif


Standouts being: ( Have stood the test of time)

MManson
Faith No More (almost anything with Mike Patton i.e. Mr.Bungle)
Nirvana
PearlJam
Stevie Nicks (Fleet-mac)
The Doors
Tom Petty
Metallica (from justice, back)
Pantera
Van Halen (DLR of course)

Alot of the new radio-rock I like too but most likely 90% wont be remembered in a few months.
Staind,Disturbed,Linkin Park, etc.

Godsmack is pretty fresh.

I dont understand all the hoopla with Tool
The first 2 albums were good but enough already. Seems like its "cool" and "exceptable" to like them.

If I hear "it's been awhile" from Staind one more time this hour, Im throwing my radio out the window.
I DO like the Studio version Of "Outside" (without Fred Durst saying "Im feelin those lighters")

Edit
Guess what just came on the radio.....
NOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooo!!!!!

That's why I don't listen to the radio. They over play songs and promote certain bands too much. Sort of like little MTV's. I normally like the bands but I refuse to listen to the repeated songs just so I don't grow to hate the song. All things in moderation.

[alpha]

Metal, fast metal, alt. Metal, speed metal, death metal. Industrial.

W.A.S.P. - everyone should hear the Crimson Idol album - it's like a rock opera about a screwed up rock star. And the solos, oh the solos.... sweet. Bob Kulick on lead guitar!

Iron Maiden - Steve Harris, thats some killer bass playing, three good guitarists (Murray, Smith, Gers), good pace, solos and lyrics.

Altough i don't like Metallica.......
CLIFF BURTON RULED EVERYONE'S SORRY ***!!!

Cliff Burton R.I.P. 26-9-86

[alpha]

To eagle:
All today's trendie (c)rap rock sux. You wanna hear good rap rock, if you see me (alpha944) on napster, PM me and download "Torn" by Pin from me. Then you'll see good rap rock.


Forgot for fav bands:
Skyjack, great experimental band, seen them live three times, brilliant.

edit~
Oh oh oh!!!
Type O negative!!!
Pete Steel rules.....

It's gotta be rock and roll music...

Rock and Roll, starting with the Beatles, stopping just short of Disco. Then restarting back when MTV was good.

Music was invented by the Beatles. Chuck Berry and Robert Johnson blazed the trail, of course. Donna Summers and The Village People tried to smother it, but real musicians took their axes to the rythm machines and Rock and Roll triumphed in the end. As it should be.

If you're in the Albuquerque area:
96.3
102.5
Southern NM:
103.7

[Warthog]

Yah, I know, GZ...it's a weird song and...ughh I just don't like it.

Speaking of Jewel, what happened to her? She used to be something popular and kind of original...but I haven't heard about her in awhile.

Warthog

[HfdWolfPack]

Surrealchereal -
Meaning that the bands have a couple good songs, the rest of the disc is lousy, radio stops playing them, they never make a second album ( if they so , it stinks)

[GroundZero3]

yeah Wart the song is popular among the girls around here for some reason. what i got out of the song was about have a tongue and sexual things with it. im not sure what the song is about nor do i care. The video is even worse. Weezer. now that a kick @ss band!! im glad they came out with a new cd! it rocks! and i can't wait for them to tour out here!! as for jewel after her little popularity and few interviews on MTv i beleive she went back to find some sort of insperation. OH well i don't miss her.

Jason

[GroundZero3]

oh yeah and Wolfpack the new Staind kicks. Along with tool. Now Perfect Circle. for some reason i could never ever get into that even know it was the lead singer of Tool. just never got my interest. i hate how people excpect the same for ever cd. its not easy at all to create music that will get the same attention as the last cd. Many bands like to try new things and get critize for it. People didn't like the new KoRn becasue it was softer and kids called them sellouts. I get angry at people when bands get called sellouts. You know have a open mind for once. As the band memebers mature so does the music. Don't knock it till you at least give it some time to sink in. i remember i thought the new KoRn sucked and then one day i popped it in and was like wow this is not bad at all.

Jason

[club_med]

sorry just a pet peeve of mine, from opinionated boorish people my age that think there was nothing good recorded after the mid 70's

If you’re talking about the mainstream music then I agree with you 100%. Much of today’s music is really bad, either the music is poor, there is no deeper meaning to the song or if the artist is completely bored then it's yet another cheap hyped up cover of something that cannot be done a second time (just like Madonna's useless cover of American Pie, the original is good, the cover is a waste of precious breathing air).

Just switch on the radio to any of the popular stations, all you will hear is worthless waste of the void, you will hear music that will not be remembered, short bursts of fame.

But…

There is salvation !…it’s called ‘beyond mainstream’, there are so many good, serious groups and artists out there, few people know them or have the time and/or motivation to sift through 400 CD’s at a store to find one good one.

However I am not surprised to see bad music making poor artists rich and famous, nowadays it is apparent that the masses will go for anything that’s hyped, and, the more the hype the worse the music.

Good examples of bad music: MTV.

[mybestinternet]

I like rap, electronic, metal, country, blues, classic rock, actullaly i pretty much like all types of music just not all the artist's that perform them.

I guess I am just really tired of having to interact with peeps my own age on the subject of music. Geese most are so narrow minded and ignorantly opinionated! They don't even irritate me so much anymore as just bore me but sometimes I pop. I know that I am a freak when it comes to a lot of things, hell I was into metal when I was 14 very bizarre for a little girl in 1968. Yeah, 68. I'm an old coot! I also know the music for me is much more than it is for many people. It is an experience, a feeding of my mind. Not just a pleasant sound to tap my toes to...

[surrealchereal]

yeah Wart the song is popular among the girls around here for some reason.
GZero,
They think it's romantic that's what, try listening to it with a more open mind, then find some Marvin Gaye, some of his early stuff. Burn some on a CD play it for that special lady you've been hoping to catch the attention of,,,, and see what happens! http://www.sysopt.com/forum/wink.gif

Does that have to do with the quality of the music or the quality of the listener?

[GroundZero3]

Slipknot, KoRn, Some of Limp Bizkit stuff, System of a Down, I love nintendo techno remixs, I like some techno music but it can get old fast (the Fight CLub soundtrack is awsome), Voodoo Glow Skulls, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Kittie, Outkast, DMX, Deftones, Dust Brothers, I LOVE ICP. Saw them in concert twice and it was the greatest thing i have ever been to in my life.( maybe thats why not girls will date me! LOL) Real Big Fish, Sublime, Prodigy, Garbage is alright, The new rob zombie, and the old (when he was in white zombie), Emenim has some good stuff, TOOL is great, Staind

I can't understand how people like that butterfly song by crazy town ?! its so annyoing i seem the as that as there one hit wonder. I rather listen to Jewel while having a dentist drill my every single tooth i have. JacobM5727 Jeckel Brothers is alright you need to listen to ICP forgotten Freshness cd or Pyschopathic clowns from outerspace.

Jason

[Savant]

celtic/folk and classical mainly though alot of the celtic is not quite celtic anymore what with electric bass, fiddle, and bagpipes mixed in with other more traditional things (like normal fiddle etc.)
saw an unussual band the other day: bagpipes, didgereedo (spelled how?) and some drums and guitar.

[Gentle Giant]

Hey, just a thought on the whole Korn thing,
What the hell is fieldy all about??
I mean, his bass playing is like, i know, downtune the bass a few steps, then play an open string and then play slapped muted notes for the whole song!

[HomeYield]

Whats her name from White Zombie played the same note, never changed, through the More Human than Human song. Probably one of the reasons she developed carparls tunnel and had to quite playing. Let the talent of others overshadow, ride some coattails, and never look back. (Don't get me wrong though, I like White Zombie and Korn but I'm a bigger fan of talent.)

[flea]

Right now im listening to rage against the machine doing a cover of a Allan
Ginsberg poem called Hadda Be Playing on the jukebox. All sorts of stuff, but
recently ive been listening to RATM, OMS, Papa Roach, Chilli peppers,
hed(pe), A Perfect Circle, Lamb, KRS-1, Jurassic 5, Rammstien, SOAD, Fiona
Apple, Lights, Prodigy, Beasties, Manics, Massive Attack, Lynard Skynard, Otis
Reading, Gomez, Apollo 440 and ive been craving take 5 by dave brubeck. Weird
and varied musical taste http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif I think the next things ill buy will be the new
Muse and Blink albums.
