    Yeah give me a boy band
    er...fuck no

    Just got all the biggest selling singles and albums on my mp3 player from like last 5 years. I appreciate a good tune not really a genre.

    Which means all this rap crap that sounds the same and the Britpop (New rock wtf? whateva) shit that is ruling here is just well...balls frankly
    If you cant see why then your a dumbass.
    What happened to all the good songwriters in any genre?

    I listen to violent rap music. Very loudly. Very theraputic. I think. I'm hungry, where are some babies...

    Yeah except for one song he has called "dont give up" Id probably like it if I didnt hate his music video so much. He just made himself look bad in it.

    Anyway for anyone who likes trance music. http://www.tranceaddict.com/site_news.shtml has tons of free music downloads. Lots of live sets that are like 1hr-2hrs long and then normal singles and a few music videos and things.

    Ive never really listened to them. Im checking em out on yahoo music now. The first song i listened to sort of reminded me of super nintendo music which is a big plus.

    For some reason, I always seem to end up spinning Bob Marley at my home game...something cool about 'I wanna love ya...and treat ya right' as you show down your suck-out draw.

    Default hooray music

    hooray, music!

    Currently in my CD changer in the car is:
    The Shins, Oh Inverted World
    Thievery Corporation, Richest Man In Babylon
    System of a Down, self titled
    Wilco, A Ghost Is Born
    Tool, Lateralus
    And one other but I forget what it is.

    I'm big into prog (Tool, Opeth I consider prog even tho it's death metal)
    Anything with Maynard is pretty nifty
    Radiohead's a great band. Coldplay is wannabe Radiohead and do it poorly

    Trip-hop has been the genre I've been into most of late; Thievery Corp, Portishead (those jerks need to put out a new album), Tricky, Massive Attack (these jerks need to rescind their last album and fire whoever thought getting Sinead O'Connor was a good idea), Zero Seven, et al

    Hopefully Tool will put out their album this year, I'd like to follow them around again.

    I found that the Alternative lifestyle I was subscribing to was nothing but a fraud. They claim to be anti-establishment, yet sell their names to record labels, T-Shirt manufacturers, online music representation and Ticketmaster.

    So I Decided to become anti-establishment in the best way possible. EZ listening Muzak!
    I don't know what they have to say
    It makes no difference anyway.
    Whatever it is...
    I'm against it.

    I used to be what you might broadly classify as goth but not really...technically I'm into electronic/EBM/industrial stuff:

    VNV Nation
    Apoptygma Berzerk
    Wolfsheim
    Assemblage 23
    Suicide Commando

    and 80s bands like the Cure, New Order.

    I also have a soft spot in my heart for classic rock/blues:
    Led Zep
    Pink Floyd
    Jimi
    Robert Johnson
    Jeff Beck
    etc.
    Playing big pots at small stakes.

    I like music with a solid rhythm and beat. This rules out hardcore metal and county.

    By far my favorite 2 acts are Green Day and 50 cent.

    eww.

    I like rap, even though most of it blows.

    My 2 favorite things to listen to right now would have to be Radiohead and Immortal Technique, definitely.

    Radiohead rules.

    Dredg, Incubus, Sparta, Chevelle, Kanye West, At the Drive In, Breaking Benjamin, Death Cab for Cutie, Outkast, Head Automatica, Glassjaw, Ben Kweller, Foo Fighters, Jeff Buckley, Motion City Soundtrack, Rage Against the Machine, The Alkaline Trio, Deftones, Brand New, The Shins, Jack Johnson, and Against Me!...to name a few. I find that I absolutely have to listen to music when I'm playing. Can't deal with silence.

    At my home game when action is slowing down I fire on AC/DC and the bets really start flying, seriously!

    As for online I like more laid back; dylan, four tet, aphex twin, boards of canada, sigur ros, albulm leaf etc etc. Mainly electronic ambient stuff.

    Nice work man...the new sigur ros is real good. Someone else mentioned the decemberists, their new album rules pretty hard.

    You should all do yourselves a favor and look up a chap by the name of Sufjan Stevens (aka best new songwriter of the 21st century). I sometimes feel like he's the best thing that ever happened to me.

    EDIT: Oh yeah, Cowboy....In the Aeroplane Over the Sea is one of my favorite albums ever.
