<p>My favorite musicians are the Beatles, Bright Eyes, Beck, Bob Dylan, bicycle (they all start with "B"!), Nick Drake, Elliott Smith, the Who, Pink Martini, and St. Vincent, among others.</p>
<p>I like pretty much everything. My top 5 atm are:</p>
<p>The Feel Good Drag by Anberlin
Paper Wings by Rise Against
The Scientist by Coldplay
The Kill by 30 Seconds to Mars
Never Too Late by Three Days Grace</p>
<p>I listen mainly to heavy metal, but I also enjoy classical and jazz. Basically I like instrumentals and the screaming vocals in some of my favorite bands are a learned taste.</p>
<p>I like Slayer, Children of Bodom, Lamb of God, Arch Enemy, Kalmah, Amon Amarth, and a variety of other bands. These bands are far from one-hit wonders because I pretty much listen to all their songs. </p>
<p>My favorite classical composers are Chopin, Beethoven, Liszt, and Mozart. I also enjoy Grieg and Tchaikovsky.</p>
<p>I can't stand what the mainstream listens to, especially repetitive Us, Os, and Supamans accompanied by some really stupid dance.</p>
<p>classic rock mainly the beatles (hence the name), bob dylan, the who, jimi hendrix, prog rock mainly ELP, genesis, yes, rush, folk pop mainly CSNY, joni mitchell, and power/baroque pop like the beach boys, oasis, ELO, elton john, travis, panic at the disco, ect. i also like the flight of the conchords, a lot of rap, and classic soul.</p>
<p>I am the only person under 30 that I know who likes country music (but not hardcore backwoodsy stuff. More like John Denver). I also like whatever's on the radio (I'm not picky), some jazz, some rap, a lot of soft rock, and The Barenaked Ladies (whatever the h*** they are), Reel Big Fish (THEY ARE AMAZING!), and whoever's on Scrubs. And although I do like Can't Buy Me Love, I'm sorry to say that I do not very much like the Beatles. I have tried, and I apparently lack the cognitive function to like them (although I can understand why others do). My best friend is a hardcore Beatles fanatic; this has caused problems.</p>
<p>Indie Rock/Indie Rap/Experimental Jazz & Funk</p>
<p>Examples-Indie Rock [The Shins, The Strokes, The Cribs, Cold War Kids, Iron & Wine]
Indie/Alternative Rap [Atmosphere, Gorillaz, The Roots, Gym Class Heroes]</p>
<p>Experimental Stuff-John Frusicante (from the chili peppers), The Cinematic Orchestra, etc]</p>
<p>Aw, just when I had given up on this thread getting any responses... </p>
<p>Anyway, I like a lot of the groups you're mentioning, except maybe I'm a little less cultured than the rest of you. </p>
<p>Sgtpepper, I LOVE Flight of the Conchords! The first season of the show was great, and of course the music is awesome. I can't wait for the second season.</p>
<p>Karajanhra, I just don't understand. What's not to love about the Beatles?</p>
<p>Broken Social Scene, M83, Sufjan Stevens, Playradioplay!, Voxtrot, Death Cab, She Wants Revenge, MC Solaar, The Smiths, Placebo, Embrace, The Notwist, Arctic Monkeys, Ryan Adams, ATB, Arcade Fire, Cat Power, Coldplay, Yeasayer, Vampire Weekend, Keane, British Sea Power, Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin...</p>
