Music/Bands you listen to?

[Kevin]

Wow. I've never heard of any of those bands you guys posted. I guess because I'm young, 20, and wasn't raised listening to rock music particularly. Anywho, I listen to all kinds of music, except country. One of my all time favorite bands are Death Cab, Radiohead, NaturalCalamity and Pink Floyd. I mostly listen to hip-hop though. My favorite artist would happen to be Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco, Norah Jones, Coldplay and Jay-Z.

Lol, you're not that young. I think I'm still the youngest one on here xD
Go me.
And NO WAY you listen to NaturalCalamity! I couldn't tell! :p
Lol I've never heard of them. I don't listen to any of those bands.

Wow, a lot of you have such fantastic taste in music. I love all the Rock and Metal bands posted, and I adore so much more too: Classical, Jazz, Techno, Rave, Noise, Electronic, and all other eccentricities of this sort. I love Benoît Bôls’ taste, for instance! At the moment I have discovered an amazing Pop band, but they come from Japan and serve as a boyband. Accordingly, on youtube you mainly see adoring girls making comments about how gorgeous the band members look. As an example, though: NewS: ‘Sayaendo’.

Japanese music has produced two good things: post-rock (like Mono and World's End Girlfriend) and Nobuo Uematsu.

The Japanese have a lot of things to listen to. If one wants noise, Merzbow shows how variated it can be. Another noise artist is The Gerogerigegege.

Brast Burn had put out an unusual, improvised album called Debon. A good prog album from Food Brain, Social Gathering, is worth seeking out. If you want more of a Kraftwerk sound, Yellow Magic Orchestra is worth a listen, as well as Logic System.

If you're looking for something Floydian, the Far East Family Band is a good listen, too.

You know, I always thought that, uh, dogs... laid eggs, and... I learned something today.

Downloooaaaiiiiiiii mean purchasing those discographies as I type.   I mean, any music done by this guy has just got to be gold.

I like MASONNA best. He appeals to me the most. He mixes elements of punk and psychedelia with sounds akin to steel barrels exploding, a sound which he can harness like a spray paint can, with lots of vocal experimentation. Plus he looks amazing too. Pure Rock Star, that guy. I’ve even seen him live. He performed quite a long concert by his standards. I think it may even have hit the 8 minute mark.

I like a lot of bands on your list but I totally and utterly adore the ones I’ve quoted above!

[liveyoungdiefast]

Most of what I listen to is underground or relatively unheard of, however some more recognizable names would include

Alkaline Trio
Anti-Flag
Bright Eyes
Coheed and Cambria
Children of Bodom
From First to Last
HIM
Jacks Mannequin
Ludo
Nightwish <3
Rise Against
Sonata Arctica
The Used

I like most modern rock, any intelligent metal (aka deep lyrics, complex music, and good vocals), some electronica and techno mixed with rock, and a few decent rappers (DZK and Immortal Technique).

[liveyoungdiefast]

The funny thing is, Flyleaf and Fireflight are considered "Christian bands." Is it weird for an atheist to be listening to Christian bands?

Absolutely not, there are plenty of Christian bands I like and my 2 best friends who are atheists like. I think it's quite common.

Atheist forum has good music taste. If ever there was a reason to risk being thrown into the lake of fire, this sure is one   ***obvious sarcasm, there is no lake of fire but people never get sarcasm anymore***

Will you marry me?

I don't think I've ever met anybody who listens to that many of the same bands that I do. Or at least not that many bands across the whole spectrum that I listen to.

[Kodanshi]

Secular ceremony only! My exâ€"girlfriend’s seen a fair few of them live. I’ve only seen Lacuna Coil, Muse, My Dying Bride and NIN live, but she’s also seen Metallica, System of a Down, most likely a fair few others. She keeps the concert tickets, you see. When we first started to hang out with each other I’d tell her I liked a particular band only to have her pull out the concert ticket from her box! Jammy sod.

Oh, and livefastdieyoung: I love Nightwish too, though I prefer them most when Tarja Turunen sang for them. I also adore, and have seen live in Bradford, Children of Bodom. I also like Sonata Arctica and The Used and would love to see them live.
