Let us know what your listening to. If you got a link to the band's web site, slap it on so we all can take a gander original.gif

At work, I usually listen to
Tom Petty
Tenacious D
With a little bit of Ted Nugent
and of course Led Zeppelin!

During stressful times, like last week's year-end inventory at my job, I like to slap in some Bach. Great concentration music.

At home, I relax to
Toby Keith
Alan Jackson
and Willie Nelson

When I want something a little heavier.....
Metallica, before they crapped out their latest album disgust.gif
Nightwish
Iced Earth, a metal band from my home state
Pantera

But when I want to be transported to a sunny beach with a Corona in one hand and a margarita in the other, I gotta listen to the one and only
Jimmy Buffett

What's everyone listening to?


Blood Angel
Metallica
Slayer
Linkin Park
Rammstein
Matrix reloaded soundtrack (at the moment)
Evanesence (sometimes)
the classical workings of mozart, wagner, tchikovsky
foo fighters
nirvana

When feeling heavier (also used as workout/running music):
Metallica (mainly classic)
NIN
Deftones
Any heavy 'new metal' that happens to be on the radio (i disappoint myself)
Softcore Rap such as Jurassic 5

When in need of Musical Inspiration for future compositions:
Ravenous Soundtrack
Phillip Glass again
Music from just about any video game

When I want to sing along:
Cake
Violent Femmes
The Strokes (even though I mumble the words)
The Postal Service

Had a little bust-up with a friend a couple days ago...so a lot of my mp3's have gone.

But Im listening to videogame remixes...specifically the comic bakery ones from KWED Remix
PurpleStuart
Blood Angel - Naah - not really. That said Rammstein rocks - i saw them first in a pub in london in '97 one of the best gigs i've ever been to - i don't like big venues and rammstein only play arenas now, there is nothing like being up close and personal with a load of silly german buggers setting fire to themselves grin2.gif

Das Ich currently sounds alot like Nine Inch Nails the rest defy definition - Especial Neubauten: they sound like an angry German shouting over a car crash! if you have broadband i'll email you some mp3s if you are interested. If you don't then i'll post you a comp cd if you like.
Blood Angel
yeah rammstein do great gigs they won a award last year for ich will live, i haven't got broadband dude that be sweet if you could mail me a cd.

AndyThorley
The best Rammstein MP3 I have is a metal version of Kraftwerks 'Das Modell'
Now...it has to be said that Kraftwerk kicks major as...bestos...^^;
But having Rammstein cover them made me grin from ear to ear.

*plays the MP3 and leaps about*
PurpleStuart

uranium101
soft rock in general as long as britts aren't singing it. their accent is bad when they are talking, but SINGING...
AndyThorley
Anyhows, Im currently listening to SID files in winamp.
For those who dont know, the SID chip is one of the greatest soundchips ever to have existed...it was used in the C64 and is amazing.

Im also kinda ticked that after making a DLL to make winamp play SID files, there's actually one up for download...boy do I have egg on my face...

--edit--
duh, I forgot p2p doesnt allow double spacing

I recently busted out the classic "even worse" album by Weird Al. For no real reason I decided to listen to it, and now as I am a lot older, a lot of the songs have become a LOT funnier as I am noticing more of the perverse/twisted humor in his songs. 2 in Particular on that album. "The good Old Days", featuring lyrics about torturing his homecoming dance date, bashing in the head of an old shop keeper. and torutring rats with a hacksaw. The second is a love song 'Melanie'. Although it plays out as though he spys on ans stalks this girl and eventually commits suicide because she rejects his advances. I don't know...maybe it's not that funny after all, but it gave me a good chuckle on the drive to work...

Althalus

Just for the record let's get the story straight
Me and Uncle Tom were fishin' it was gettin' pretty late
Out on a cypress limb above the wishin' well
Where they say is got no bottom, say it take you down to Hell



Stand proud man! You ain't the only one. thumbsup.gif

Aslan , not only a joke but nearly the only one I had heard of other than The Pogues of course .

Starlyte I checked out the cure link you added but it didn't have the B sides on it . That was some of there best stuff .

However I am currently enjoying MatchBox 20's (ahh so main stream ) I'm not crazy .
It reminds me of you guys . Not necissarilly Aslan and Starlyte in particular but more of a grose general overview of people on the site en mass . huh.gif

" I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell .
I know right now you can't tell . "
Darn it we need a singing smilie ohmy.gif whistling2.gif
