What kind of music do you like

[Keldrif]

well I'm sure this has been done many times but, I still wanna know what do you groove to...

I love prog rock like Opeth there a band from sweden and they can do it all from crazy heavy metal to jazzy folk rock. They write about things like love, pain, nature,and are just an amazine set of muscians with some real talent. There music has a little something for eveybody and I challange all of you to give them a try but because of there musical diversity you will probably not like all the stuff so if anyone is intrested in give Opeth a shot I will post some song names for you guys to download depending on what your style is.

My other favs are:
[list=1]
Tool
Mogwai
Nick Drake
System of a Down
Lifer
Pink Floyd
Dead Can Dance
Download
My Dying Bride
Nirvana
[/list=1]
and many more...

[Picaune]

and what about "Ambient: Music for Airports", "Path: A Journey Into Ambient Music by Windham Hill", and all the other new age/ambient/elevator music/hold music/muzak?

[anubis2003]

Mainly heavy rock and metal, but I like most kinds of music.

[Shenlong]

Punk Rock
Heavy Metal
Alt. Rock
Techno (Sometimes as background auto racing music, up-beat heavy metal will still be better... :D )
Rap (Mainly Eminem, Snoop Dogg, and Jurassic 5...Hate mostly everything else)

[OutlawJim]

[Shenlong]

Bjork
Ozric Tentacles
Porcupine Tree
Hawkwind
Brian Eno
Rammstein

[killswitch1968]

Metal, almost exclusively.
And Opeth are huge, their newest double album has all the reviewers creaming themselvs. I don't personally get it but whatever. Had a chance to see them actually, not my cup of tea though.

Edit: Are they up for a grammy? (Swedish)

[Keldrif]

KingoftheRotten I already do. thank you tho there all good bands

Outlawjim I would say sting is mainly rock or classic rock but he takes infuences from almost everything

now for a round of Opeth tracks:

Heavy Metal Opeth: A Fair Judgement, Face of Melinda
Really Heavy Opeth: The Drapery Falls, Deliverance
Insainly Heavy Opeth: Karma, Wreath
Folky Opeth: Harvest, Creedance
Ambent Opeth: Still day beneath the sun, Patterns in the Ivy
If you guy listen to any of these let me know what ya think I am courious, and all ways like to convert new people in to the Opeth fold. and if you didn't like em thank you for trying something new and i'm sorry for wasting your time.

Argh. Lots of Opeth worship I find. overrated (in the metal scene at least). I like Demon of the Fall a lot, but then again I like aggressive metal, with some exceptions (the odd Rhapsody song, Symphony X, Nightwish).
BTW: Heard Mikael åkerfeldt's new band Bloodbath? Now that is METAL!

[Keldrif]

Yes bloodbath is great and you are entitled to your opinians about Opeth worship. I would consider myself one of the biggest fans but I worship no band and aggressive metal is good but I'm more into Progressive I like how Opeth can seamlesly switch from acousitc to electric and Build up a mood throught out a song and Mikael's Lyrics are some of the best ever written and the concept of the album My Arms, Your Hearse telling one story with 9 songs was great anyways I'm not trying to say your wrong but, I do love this band and I think all there prase is dead on.

[anubis2003]

Disturbed,System of a Down,Linkin Park,Mudvayne,Flaw,Smashing Pumpkins,Red Hot Chili Peppers,Papa Roach,Nonpoint,Chevelle,White Stripe,The Vines,The Hives,The Strokes,ACDC,Sevendust,Led Zepplin,Rufio,Nirvana,Nine Inch Nails,Stone Sour,Rob Zombie,Stone Temple Pilots,Rage Against The Machine, Queen, Pink Floyd, Eric Clapton...

I love They Might Be Giants. Istanbul Was Constantinople is another great song by them.

[MetallichicA]

Got to see them in concert at my college a couple years ago - it was a blast! They're such a fun band.

Istanbul wasn't done by them originally, I don't think. At least that's what I heard, but I'm not positive. Don't matter, I like the way they do it :)

Anybody remember the Tiny Toons episode with TMBG music videos in cartoon style? lol or am I dating myself? :D







<edit> Okay, I've found something about Eartha Kitt singing it, and also Four Lads :igor: dunno! </edit>

[anubis2003]

I think you might be right about istanbul, but they can do a great job with the song. Would love to see them in concert as well.

That is my favorite Tiny Toons episode of all time. I happened across it on television about a month ago.
*me goes to relive old memories.

Thats an oxymoron in my opinion...no offense.

I listen to alternative (big one to forget), jazz (swing and other assorted jazz flavors), a little fusion (anyone know what that is?), a little techno, and absolutely no CRAP...err...I mean rap. Some favorite groups include:

Third Eye Blind
Semisonic
Barenaked Ladies
J. Ralph
Goo Goo Dolls
Jimmy Eat World
Royal Crown Revue
Chase
Big Bad Voodoo Daddy
Josh Rouse

Just to name a few.

Classical music is in 3rd place. This has got to be a really pushy group...ofcourse all other sorts of modern music for this time period came from Classical music. Wind instruments, string instruments, just they give a more twangy and upbeat note than the softer more subtle music heard in Classical music. Also rock and classical music share the speed of how the music is conducted, fast or slow. ;)

[tiger84]

I can understand why classical is so popular, it's so varied and has so many facets. Plus, everyone likes at least one classical piece.

[Anacific]

I listen to pretty much anything except Rap, Country, Hardcore, Stupid pop (I like quality pop music).

Mostly I listen to electronic and metal sub-genres.

[m0e]

Good music by talented people. Doesn't have to be necessarily a good musician, songwriter or singer, sometimes it is enough to put on a good show. Best show I ever saw, Neil Young. He was his own opening act. Came out and did almost and hour of acoustic, him, a piano, his guitar and on a few songs one of the guys from Crazy Horse accompanied him. Then he took about a twenty minute break. After that they (Neil and Crazy Horse ) came out and rocked the house for about an hour and a half. Excellent. 'Course it helps that it was one of the shows I was sober enough to remember so I might have seen better, maybe.:igor:

[insomniac]

It's not techno goddammit! It's electronica. :hang:

[steak]

Ozric Tentacles,

LOL i remember them, they ruled...hehe

[red_dwarfer_200]

U cant get better than the Foo Fighters!...Or perhaps The Red Hot Chilli Peppers!

:D :up:

[Keldrif]

sorry insomniac it's not my cup o' tea so my knowlage of electroinca is limited but I must admit Download is an awsome eletronica group Suni C is one of my fav songs.

Neat-O

That's awesom Keldrif, I thought I was the only one who really digs Opeth. They mix in Death Metal, Classical, and Prog Rock with loads of melody. One of my favs.

Btw, I can't stand Nu Metal. It's just a bunch of crap compared to the real stuff imo.

[Keldrif]

Nah me and about 10 of my friends all dig Opeth and there stuff is so fun to play on gutiar. I have been to 3 of there texas show and just can't get enuff of them

Three actually, but the first one (had a black cover, forget the name) didn't do very well.

I listen to anything I like the sound of. Some bands/groups/artists I consider good:

-the Rolling Stones, T-Rex, Queen, The Doors, Eric Clapton, Bruce Springsteen, Metallica, AC/DC, Aerosmith, Guns N' Roses, REM, Coldplay, Doves, Oasis, Moby, Chemical Brothers, Stereophonics, Muse, Idlewild, Faithless, Weezer, Santana, The Verve & Richard Ashcroft, U2, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath & Ozzy, Ferry Corsten... and that's just off the top of my head.

I also listen to loads of 80's pop. :cool:

[Shenlong]

Forgot about The Cult, 8 Stops 7, Ramones, Everlast and Audioslave...
