What's your favorite kind of music? I listen to a bit of everything (minus rap)...... I listen to oldies quite a bit (The Beatles, Elvis Presley, The Beach Boys, etc), some Five for Fighting, some Aerosmith, a bit of The Fray... Not too much country though I have been a little more tolerant of it lately (I used to hate it).. What about you?

Now listening: Beat Hackers - Not for sale
Nice clean melodical 2009 full-on psytrance.
But I also listen lots of 80's and 90's radio at work. Never wouldn't miss that. In my opinion still the most interesting era of modern music.

I listen to pretty much anything, though I'm not a huge fan of the pop out right now ( & for the past few years). My tastes range from Bach to Orange Goblin, Imogen Heap to Too $hort and almost everything in between... I have a collection of about 400 CD's right now (and some vinyl too)... yes I still buy my music on physical media!

At home I generally listen to a local radio station that plays, e.g.: Americana, Rockabilly, Folk (central Texas style, that is), etc.
At work I just need any kind of unobjectionable noise to drown out the half dozen conversations occurring all around my desk. Classical will do. Flamenco guitar will do. Rap and Top 40 will do. Even Country - in small doses - will do.

Quite a lot of dance, mostly techno. Mainly because I'm also a VJ, besides my 'regular' day time job as a *nix engineer :e
But other then that pretty much anything goes, pop, rock, (old school) hiphop, some R&B, or just the ever present humming of my computers..

August 13th, 2009, 23:02
Metal primarily. I have a preference for older Scandinavian black metal (Emperor, Dimmu Borgir, Dark Throne, etc), but also enjoy other similar styles from bands such as Cradle Of Filth or Therion. Of course, death metal is always welcome; Cannibal Corpse, Mortician, etc. If it's metal, I probably like it...unless it's Glam, which I can't stand. I also do like some numetal, such as Disturbed. Keep the country and rap away from me though (old-school rap is sometimes ok...Run DMC, Beastie Boys, The Fat Boys, etc).

Pretty much into NGoHT (schranz) lately, but good ol' hard techno also does the job.
Dark and hard drum and bass, dark step, oldschool raps, classic violin and piano, experimental and industrial, post-rock and plain robot, synthetic music goes in too.

What's your favorite kind of music?
I can tolerate a lot, from classical to metal and many things in between, but I prefer rock (Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, Guns N' Roses, AC/DC, Status Quo, my country's national pride Golden Earring, Dire Straits, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, Van Halen, Yngwie Malmsteen, Deep Purple, Kiss, Alice Cooper, etc. etc. and my favorite by far is Queen) and '80s pop. What I don't care for is house, rap and R&B, with a few rare exceptions.

Depends what I feel like, really, I am more of a metal guy in general but I've slowly been softening. I'm not exactly sure what I like most in that genre.. I mainly listen to Pantera, Metallica, there are a good few Slipknot songs I like, All That Remains(The Fall of Ideals was the only album I like but all the songs on it are great) when I want to be more extreme along with singles by other more hardcore bands, Dethklok I listen to a lot(good band, can't wait for Dethalbum 2), err let's see what else... Mainly singles other than that. I don't really have a total favorite. And I don't JUST listen to metal, I've been listening to all sorts of things lately, I have a soft spot for sad/love songs :p
For example, my newfound favorite song is currently I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing by Aerosmith(amazing song, I just absolutely love it blasting through my 100$ skullcandy headphones with the subwoofers on <3)

I used to be a hardliner metal fan and guitarist who went through almost all the trends of the 80s, hard rock->metal->power->thrash->death->hardcore, and i think was the first genuine thrash metal guitarist in eastern Crete island/Greece.
Now, i almost entirely listen to balkan fusion-jazz-ethno-brass band-accordion (mainly from (ex)Yugoslavia).

A little hard metal of course, but mainly electronic stuff (my most favorite is Squarepusher). Alot technobass/electrobass (like Techmaster P.E.B., Dynamix II, Beat Dominator, and a hundred others). UK Garage is pretty wicked stuff too.
I also love underground & intelligent hiphop (ie MF Doom, KRS-One, Public Enemy, many many more).
There's a bunch of other stuff too, like Russian Shanson, and even stuff like Frank Sinatra :e

Why sould someone just listen to one special kind of music? I know many people like that, mostly metallers, who think like that - but "normal" guys?
Once you really get what guys like Mahler or Bach were doing, I mean once it really really sets into your brain what they were trying to say & do, you should come to the sudden and vital realisation that rock & roll, hip hop, & whatnot are redundant. Beethoven used a 4/4 backbeat in his "Archduke" trio that Ray Charles probably weeps over when trying to emulate. Bach's "Brandenburg" concertos prefigured New Wave in ways that even New Wave never grasped.
I'm not saying that I don't listen to this other stuff, but yeah, there's no point in mooning over something that was done 400 years ago that some meat-head with a bad haircut is ignorantly recreating right now.
But I still like Johnny Cash, Neko Case, Einstüzende Neubauten, Glenn Miller, Al Hirt . . .

I listen mainly to baroque, metal, and country. I was into power and black metal about a decade ago; but stopped really following metal around 2003. I have no idea which new bands are worth listening to besides Mastodon. Older bands I favor include Blind Guardian, old Iced Earth, Arcturus, Rhoads-era Ozzy, Megadeth and the Gathering.
As for country, I used to hate it. However, we used to have a nearby FM station which played old country, such as Cash, Elvis, Roy Orbison, Conway, George Jones, etc. That kind of stuff is pure and fun to listen to, unlike the crap rolling out of Nashville these days.

Classic Rock is my favorite. There was so much emotion in the 60s and 70s that anyone could write songs with meaning. New music these days is all about appealing to the masses.

There is a FreeBSD group on last.fm (http://www.last.fm/group/FreeBSD).
http://www.last.fm/group/FreeBSD/charts computes the number of group's members who listened at least one track from this artist during the week.
So, it seems FreeBSD users listen to Metallica, Nine Inch Nails, Gorillaz, Marilyn Manson, Linkin Park, Radiohead, Iron Maiden, Guns N' Roses, The Beatles, Massive Attack, Coldplay, Depeche Mode, Rammstein, Moby, Nightwish, Madonna, Green Day, Muse, Pink Floyd and Daft Punk.
And amongst things not so much listened by other last.fm users: Garbage (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garbage_%28band%29) (some rock), "Weird Al" Yankovic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%22Weird_Al%22_Yankovic), Pakito (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pakito) (seems to be a French DJ) and Juno Reactor (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juno_Reactor).

Hard Rock,Classic Rock and Jazz,Rock & Roll.
Also,I like to listen to the radio from the command line:
- often Radio Bizzz (http://www.radioquebec.biz/) (music non stop without advertisement)
<player> http://173.236.29.51:8140
where <player> may be: mplayer,vlc,mpg*,etc
- sometimes BBC Radio (http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/)
bbcradio() { local s;echo "Select a station:";select s in 1 1x 2 3 4 5 6 7 "Asian Network an" "Nations & Local lcl";do break;done;mplayer -playlist "http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r"$(echo "$s"|awk '{print $NF}')".asx";}
This command lets you select from 10 different BBC stations. When one is chosen, it streams it with mplayer.
Requires: mplayer with wma support.
And I am curious to know what radio station do you listen to?

I generally listen to Pop, Poprock, Rock or Country. Right at the moment I am totally hooked up with listening to all Rihanna Songs - especially her last two Albums 'R Rated' and 'Loud'... I simply love her voice and her appeal. She is an absolute star and has a great voice that is so exceptional.

I guess I like anything that isn't too full of filth and/or materialistic flim-flam (unless it is satirical, of course).
Classical music is nice when I'm in the right mood - listening to Ronda alla Turca by Mozart right now.
Modern mash-ups intrigue me for some reason:
J. Cash vs. Cypress Hill - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwJQy2BkJ-o
Songs making fun of people:
Backing Up Song (from the viral video): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zjYSERaXEGI
(acoustical version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5p8p5JkWUGg)
The Kills: Monkey 23 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tM4FyCL4tjo
Gogol Bordello: Start Wearing Purple - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SkkIwO_X4i4
Morphine: Cure For Pain - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=985JGeGq_tc
J Minus: Congratulations, You Suck - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vQXZDm56h0
Black Keys: Tighten Up - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNXwicxlsvI
