Was going through some of the old C.com videos for the umpteenth time and it was brought up that it was odd that Donny was into metal. That got me thinking about what you guys listen to, hence the post.
So here's what I listen to fairly often:
Tool
A Perfect Circle
Metallica (going to a concert with them, Lamb of God and The Sword on the 15th)
Creedance Clearwater Revival
Lynyrd Skynyrd
Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack
Nirvana
Assorted Techno
When the mood strikes Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix
As you can see I'm all over the place, how about you guys?

My Juno Reactor collection is a mess, I don't know what albums I have,its just a collection of MP3's. I keep meaning to clean it up but haven't yet.
For anyone that likes Atmosphere I would recommend checking out some of the other Hip-Hop groups I listed:

Oddly enough, I really don't listen to music. In my CD changer (and probably in there for at least the last year or so) is Nirvana, Tom Petty, Johnny Cash, Hank Williams (the real one, not his bush league son) and Beastie Boys. I'm a loser. I listen to sports talk radio.0

madurofan:I'm a huge underground, intelligent rap fan. Atmosphere, Josh Martinez, Sage Francis, The Let Go
intelligent, yes ...I like to call it conscious rap too...In which I tend to get into Jurassic 5 (older stuff mostly), Michael Franti & Spearhead (more funk/reggae/rock), Lyrics Born, and Atmosphere every once in a while.0 -
Funny side note: I've mentioned before that I do Muay Thai. Well I trained with a kid who looked all to familiar a few times recently and when I asked him his name he said "Jake." With the tattoos and the name and face, I put it all together...Jake Bannon from Converge. OK, I thought it was kinda cool.These Filthy Hands:Great thread. I'm a metal head, but I listen to damn near everything.
Converge
As for my musical tastes, music is my thing. Been in bands for years, starting with metal (The Red Chord - I was the original bassist before the first album and was thanked in the first two albums - my claim to fame) and now doing vocals in a hard rock band (heavy southern rock - kinda Corrosion of Conformity, Only Living Witness...). I'm gonna say my taste in music is eclectic. The last few albums/artists purchased...
Bach
Chopin
Mozart
Kamchatka (kind of blues/jam band)
Miles Davis
Coyote Oldman (Native American flute music)
Hank III
Volbeat (Elvis meets Johnny Cash meets old Life of Agony)
Prince
Herb Alpert
Bury Your Dead
Children of Bodom
Red (Jazz/Hip Hop fusion)
Army of the Pharaohs
I try to keep an open mind. But usually stay away from very poppy stuff.0 -
I love some good Sports talk radio on the way home from work. The local guy here is pretty funny and you can call in and talk about sports or anything pop culture. Just have to stay away from the politics.Luko:I'm a loser. I listen to sports talk radio.0 -
I'm a Classic Rock and Blues guy with some old metal and hard rock thrown in. However, I play the sax and play in two rock bands and one wedding band so I get the play the blues and rock and roll thing but do the jazz, big band and pop thing too. There is some funk I like to play also.
Zep
Tesla
Stevie Ray Vaughn(One of my favorites)

Bon Jovi
Buddy Guy
Poison

I like that conscious rap ... I might steal that. Have you listened to Josh or Sage? I'll burn you a disc with best of Josh Martinez if you'd like. Youtube Sage Francis - Makeshift Patriot if you've never heard it. IMHO one of the best 3 rap songs of all time.bbc020:madurofan:I'm a huge underground, intelligent rap fan. Atmosphere, Josh Martinez, Sage Francis, The Let Go

I do believe Zeppelin was my first love. It was my first CD. It was my only CD for probably six months and I walked around with my discman all the time. At about 9 or 10 years old I knew every word on the Led Zeppelin IV cd.kuzi16:strange... i dont think a single person has mentioned Led Zeppelin.
