I know there are a bunch of old threads, but I felt a new one was justified, since the old ones are too old to resurrect.

Anyway, out of pure random curiosity and boredom, I want to know what kind of music people generally prefer, and which band in particular is your favorite.


I prefer rock that involves actual singing (not rhythmic shouting into the microphone).

My personal favorite band is Don't Look Down, a pop-punk band (leaning towards punk) from the Philly area. Believe me, they're quite good, and fairly original too. Check out the link and listen to some of the tracks if you don't believe me.

I like a lot of things.

Nine Inch Nails are my favourite band.

Then Will Haven

Then Helmet

Then Anything with Mike Patton (faith no more probably favourite though)

Aphex Twin

Um....Loads.

[Alikchi]

Suicide Machines, Rancid, Strongbad, New Found Glory (in that order.)

Probably Don't Look Down will fit in there at some point.

[Ulundel]

Rammstein, Eminem, U2...

[Razor]

What can I say? I like Boston, U2, Genesis, Queen, ZZ Top, The Police and such. There is also a band from my country which I like, but they are old.

[diamondgeezer]

Razor, as much as I enjoy taking the piss out of you at every oppertunity, in this case you have impressed me no end. My music appreciation hat goes off to you. Well done, sir

And just so we all know:

Queen is tEh cool!

*sings* She keeps a Moet et Chandon, in her pretty cabinet...

[Tar-Palantir]

I like what's called 'classical' music, except opera. I also like listening to Enya.

[Tiara]

Linkin Park, KoRn & Puddle of Mudd

Don't get me wrong, I like the music not the bands.

[Cannikin]

I like orchestral music. Can't really be classified as "classical" music because I don't specifically listen to older music from the Baroque, Rennaisance etc. period. I listen mostly to modern orchestra music, particularly movie soundtracks.

I can't stand pop, rock, rap etc.

I could sign this myself

[kasperl]

i like the corrs and such, the calmer kind of pop. i also like jazz and blues a lot. i  just HATE trance and techno and such (and every kind of music if the volumes to high).
and BTW can someone explain why, at party`s, they always put he music so hard you can't hear eachother?

[Fineus]

My tastes have become somewhat eclectic. When I was little I used to like pop music but these days pop is definitely ****e. I guess I listen to Rock more than anything else with bands like Within Temptation and Tool coming firm favourites. Gorrilaz, Incubus and Mr Scruff are also listened to a lot these days. I do like a spot of classical though, but it depends on my mood.

[Stunaep]

thanks to my verymusicalvioloncelloplayer dad, I have a very big scale of music I like.

Classical music
Mideval music
Jazz, Soul, Blues, etc.
rap, metal, and about everything else that involves a lot of overdrive guitar, .
Mike Oldfield.  *runs*

[Gortef]

I too like many different kind of music... allmost everything goes as long as it sounds good enough.

But my favourite band is Nightwish

[Petrarch of the VBB]

WAGNER!

Anyway, the more powerful side of classical stuff, like Ride of the Valkyries.
Or Jazz, erm stuff like Brazil.

I don't really like any types of music, just individual pieces.

Oh, Hell March, form Red Alert.

[aldo_14]

Indie... mostly late 90's stuff - I've been a bit dissappointed by a few of the more recent albums.

Charlatans, Travis, Seahorses, The Verve, Supergrass, U2, etc are the type of bands I buy...

Don't worry, you're not the only one

[Razor]

Isn't Mike Oldfield making instrumental music? How about Vangelis? (sp)
