What Music Are You Currently Listening To

[BiffCo]

From Wikipedia:

Emo may refer to:

* Emo (slang), a slang term used to describe a wide range of fashion styles and attitudes which have roots in emo music
* Emo (music), a subgenre of hardcore punk

I don't dress emo I guess, but I do enjoy My Chemical Romance, Taking Back Sunday, and New Found Glory, so I guess that means I listen to emo music. I don't really care either way. I like music...

But I have to rant for just a second. Why does Metallica have to suck so much after The Black Album? Load and ReLoad were "ok," but St. Anger deserves to be bought and then threw into a bonfire. That is the worst CD purchase I've ever made, hands down. Unless you count the new Jessica Simpson CD... "I jus' kidding!" (SNL character)

My day job makes me not to ever want to listen to Bluegrass. I will agree that it is tough to play. Some of those finger pickers are rediculous.

My music is pretty much limited to metal. I just can't get into some other shit. I'm not into the crazy speed, death metal shit. I need metal with a badass groove and guitarists who can play. For anyone out there with a love for Dimebag Darrell, check out Rebel Meets Rebel. Awesome, funny assed hard rock country shit. http://www.rebelmeetsrebel.com/main.html

I repsect anyone that plays real Blue Grass, just cant stand listening to it. Playing a few instuments myself allows me to appreciate others talents. Learning Banjo and Violin are still on my To Do list.

Fool! I'm the colonel of this gold and platinum tank! Oh Master P. He was my guilty pleasure in HS. My old roomate got the Matisyahu cd from Columbia house, and left it at the apartment. I've been playing that a little bit when I get sick of my iPod. Very interesting to say the least. I like the quasi regge feel to it. If you're into that, you might like Lucky Boys Confusion.

Pwnd. Well then I guess I'm not an Oi! type of guy then.

Yellowcard is emo sometimes, yes. List some Oi! bands, and we'll see what I think.

I can imagine Murphy's insanely fun to drink with!

Toughskins
The Service (2 of my bestest friends in there, local band but they have 2 albums out)
Anti-Heros
Patriot
Pressure Point
Runnin' Riot
The Business


That should be enough to turn you off to it and go 'oh shit!' lmao

[KEEZY]

Anti-Heros - Like it. Love the energy. The guitars are great too.
Patriot was pretty good too. Thanks for the list!

I'm having trouble finding some of the music, but I like what I've heard so far.

[BrewCityUpstart]

Thats because these guys have day jobs and arent big rock stars, so a lot of their stuff is hard to find/not mass produced.


No prob, yo.

[Peench]

Listening to Chet Baker right now. Great trumpeteer.

Hehe, I can't count the number of people who have looked at my iPod or my music collection and said "WTF?" You listen to all this different stuff?

80s for the win!

On a more serious note, Liquid Tension Experiment is always a good listen.

And at times some Sarah Brightman, Masters of Chant or Andrea Bocelli. The opposite of that would be VAST, Nightwish, Sepultura, GWAR, all of which I love. Anything but hiphop/rap and country will do.

Did I slightly Keezy?

Wow Spoon Great list! Kinda like a Shotgun Blast, Sorta all over the place. Dig all of the 80's stuff there.
For me the Metallica Stuff has to be prior to the Black Album ( Can't stand that one or anything after it!!)
If you like Liquid Tension Experiment, Then you obviously have listened to Dream Theater? Those guys are amazing ( CD or Live ) Also Fates Warning, Rush, Seether, Shinedown, RA, Godsmack

[SpOoNmAn]

Ofcourse I love DT, seen them twice Live, awesome! There are 100 more I could mention but that would get silly. You mentioned some others I forgot to list, Thanks.

Agreed on the Metallica comment.

Ok maybe a few more from my 360 playlist...

Old Beastie Boys
INXS
U2
Moody Blues
Chicago
Yes(one of my top 10)
OMD
The Cars
Thompson Twins
AC/DC
Van effing Halen

Want another shotgun blast?

I'm probably the only person here who likes Neil Diamond. My dad had the 8 track playing in the basement when I was a kid and it stuck with me, lol.

[KEEZY]

INXS and The Cars are great. Pretty much all of those listed in your shotgun blast are. I'm a fan of some Elvis Costello too.
