Ok I think we've all established that we are music lovers here but what do you actually listen to? Who are your favorite musicians?


My top musicians at the moment are:

Nouvelle Vague Even though they play more covers than anything else I find them very soothing. My favorite song by them is too drunk to fuck

Justice I was in love with them since easter 2 years ago and I'm still very much in love. I went to see them live a few times, which was fantastic. My favorite song by them is D.A.N.C.E. how unoriginal I know.

Daft Punk They were a part of me growing up and they still are. The first song I heard by them was one more time and it was all uphill from there. Human is my favorite song by them.

No Doubt they are a group that should have never broken up, Gwen only has some moments I liked but it's rare that I find something just by her that I like. I mean the moment she got together with Akon for that sweet escape song was an all time low.

The Killers probably one of my favorite bands at the moment, I don't think I'll ever get tired of them.

The Eagles this band, Cat Stevens and Don Mclean were the only good things my dad introduced to me.

Ok I was just dropping names. I'm gonna stop it here ... Basically I like a wide variety of stuff. I'm into electro and rock most of all, I think, and a bit of pop here and there. Not that much of a fan for rap, but I am loving lil mama right now.

I have quite an extensive list but I'll only name a few of my favorites. Older AFI, Agalloch, Porcupine Tree, Isis, Thrice, Opeth, Aphex Twin, and more. These days I find myself mainly listening to progressive or metal but I listen to quite a range of other types of music as well.

I'd rather not list. I listen to metal almost exclusively, and enjoy most, if not all, sub-genres that fall under that umbrella. In a surprising twist, my attention has recently been drawn to American bands like ARSIS and THE ABSENCE, though most of my love still remains with European outfits like CARCASS, AT THE GATES, and DARK TRANQUILLITY. I also enjoy some alternative; mostly those with some sort of metal influence, like ALICE IN CHAINS or FAITH NO MORE.
