I'm more into "mellow" rock. Sublime, Weezer, Beck, Radiohead, Counting Crows, and Everclear have been my favorites for a while.

Mami Kawada, KOTOKO, Lia, Nightmare, UVERworld, Garnet Crow, Origa, and Do As Infinity. Yeah, in case you hadn't figured it out, I'm a huge fan of Japanese music. Pretty much the only non-Japanese I listen to (by choice) is Evanescence.

I listen to a bit of everything (rock, metal, punk, dance, j-pop, country, hip hop, r&b, techno, showtunes, animals in washing machines, etc). I'm also really into oldies*.

Bands/artists that are currently on my mp3 player:
Killswitch Engage, Within Temptation, Utada Hikaru, Dragon Ash, Los Campesinos, The New Pornographers, Rascal Flats, the entire soundtrack of "Rent".

*True story: I was born in '85. I did not know of ANY music made after 1975 until I was 8 years old. We were raised on ONLY music from the 50's to the 70's.

I don't like one specific genre of music, but I absolutely can't stand country or rap. Some of my favorite bands are: Reel Big Fish, Against Me!, Daft Punk, Green Day (their old stuff is way better), Gogol Bordello, and Weezer. Really, i'll listen to anything that keeps me interested.

EDIT: oh god, how could I forget Johnny Cash?! I love the Man In Black. :D

I love most hard rock (not too keen on punk, though) - I've never really grasped all the sub-genres, but I think I specifically like metal, classic rock, um, sludge-metal, I think, and groove metal...? I dunno, you can figure that out from my fave bands:

Rob Zombie, Godsmack, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Clutch, Pantera, Black Label Society, Audioslave, Tool, Down, Corrosion of Conformity, System of a Down

I also like, I guess you could call it symphonic music, like not classical exactly, but like game and movie soundtrack type-stuff. Like some examples would be the soundtrack to Road to Perdition or Cold Mountain. And also Gaelic music, like Loreena McKennit.

Wasn't there another thread like this?

Either way, I enjoy Metal [http://metal-archives.com/usercol.php?id=138599&nickname=Draculus] the most with Thrash, Power, and Black as my preferred subgenres.

Classical music follows and then Indie and everything else is a mish-mash of what I deem as good ranging from the completely esoteric to Duran Duran.

Huge Queens Of The Stone Age. I have every album, single, B-side, demo and a nice collection of about a hundred bootlegs.
But I basically listen to anything that sounds like honest music to me. That goes from Shins to Mastodon. Some classcal stuff too, some jazz, a lot of blues, some electro (mostly belgian though).

YEAH! Dragonforce do the tastiest solos EVR!
Yeah I just LOVE mindless scale pounding on sped up recordings..

Man I hate dragonforce
QFT, and if you do not believe him or me, watch a video of them live...they Suck big time, they arent even close to whats on their albums/videos, just goes to show that they suck as a band
Its always a bummer if a band can't deliver live what they can in studio, but shit man, sound is sound. And if a recorded sound moves me, then I'm all for it.

Actually dude, ALMOST EVERY BAND is incapable of giving even 85% of the quality live that they do in studio, so if we went by you're standards, we'd only like a small group of acoustic or Dj style stuff.

Have you ever tried playing live? You can't set things up perfect like you can in a studio.

I don't mean to be a dick, and maybe I'm making too much of this (I don't really want to turn it into an argument or anything) but come on, be realistic.

The only band I've ever seen that sounded exactly the same live was the Adolescents. Even Iron Maiden and Dio were less then they were in studio. Not by much, but they were.
Well, yea, alot of bands cant perform live as well as they do in a studio, that makes them a bad band according to me, cause i have my standard when it comes to music higher then most people, but the bands i've liked and seen live have been very very close to studio sound, no slip ups or wrong keys or anything, and that according to me makes a good band, that not only can record an album, but also play their music live

Rock, metal, punk rock, punk metal(if there's such a thing lol), thrash metal, any metal really and I like movie and game soundtracks for some odd reason. Hate c/rap and hip hop, only thing I like them for is dancing to in clubs cause I have to admit that metal isn't exactly the greatest thing to dance to, also gives me a chance to move in on the ladies;)

It's all rock and metal for me. I generally listen to all sub-categories; Heavy metal, thrash metal, power metal, hard rock, speed metal, melodic metal, black metal, folk metal...

I don't listen to death metal, alternate metal and metalcore as I find that strange and ridiculous.
