Favorite music?

[dallaspattern]

So what are some of your favourite jamz? My staples are Fugazi, Hot Snakes and Propagandhi

[Dicer]

I am musically all over the damn map...

ABBA to ZZ TOP
I have a soft spot for
80's thrash metal
90's Techno
Industrial
and a whole slew of other crap.

[HailingTheThings]

Just a few:

Smashing Pumpkins (older stuff lol)
Ozma
Christian Death
Onmyouza

[jtucci31]

I love Fugazi. And Minor Threat for that matter. Pretty important bands in terms of punk music, in my opinion obviously. I sadly haven't listened to these records in awhile though (I only have the first Fugazi record, X songs or something. And i have Minor Threat by Minor Threat, lol).

Lately I've been listening to a lot of Dinosaur Jr. I'm a fan of 90's punk/emo/alternative/weezer/whathaveyou so this band somehow escaped me for awhile.

A lot of my music interests can kind of be rooted back to skateboarding in a weird way. I, like most, loved the THPS soundtracks. So between those games and watching skate videos/parts all the time, I was always enjoying the music and digging further into the band or genre. Not that i skate very well, but I'm into every other aspect of skating.

But some of my top bands that i either go back to constantly or have been listening recently are:

Weezer (Blue Album and Pinkerton exclusively)
Cap'n Jazz
Dinosaur Jr
Minor Threat
Back to the Future Soundtrack
Rod Stewart (only "Young Turks" though)




Also, haven't there been multiple music threads? I guess topics get re-filtered every so often. Oh well!

I like the song that says something about Rick Roll, or something, that is all!

I like music without words. Hate singing. Cant think why anyone would ever like singing.

yeah that dude was crazy as fuck. Fucking performing naked, making himself  bleed, peeing and shitting on his fans. He had somr alright music but that dude was insane.

[geise]

Wide range of music for me.  These sum up some of my genre.

[ClodBusted]

I don't listen to music. Music evokes emotion. Emotion blurs judgement.

I do, however, enjoy Literal Music Videos.

Goverrats have removed some of the best ones over copyright shits. :/  So usually I just tune a radio to an unused band and listen to the static.

Great stuff!  *clap clap*

[wildfruit]

I usually just have pc engine tracks from sunteam and lucasarts stuff from stans previously used soundtracks on loop. Also some good stuff from vengefulchip

[mitsuman]

I'm all over the board. Techno (fuck calling it EDM), classic rock, Tool (I won't put them into a genre because they are too bad ass), hip hop, drum and bass, newer stuff like Purity Ring, Sylvan Esso, classic country, and so on.

I like pretty much everything except for pop and new country (country pop). It's all shit.

I pretty much only listen to classical music now.

[esteban]

FIRST OBSERVATION: there are way more fans of the music I like than at any time in the history of this forum. Crazy.

I like a ridiculous amount of genres/bands. I'd say my obsession with music is beyond video games because I am always listening to something.

FUN FACT: Only recently did I start to listen to video game music as "music" instead of simply "fake music". I always liked video game music, but it was very important for me to keep it distinct from "real music"

GEISE: cats and dogs have all the luck.

NULLITY:  every single fucking song on the first two A-ha albums are gems. That's insane.

DALLAS: so, I like a lot of the punk/hardcore/postpunk stuff that came out on dischord records...I am guilty of loving Slant 6, Dag Nasty, Nation of Ulysses, etc etc.

GG ALLIN was a racist, scary fuck, but he still intrigued me...but not enough to endorse him. I put him in the "real deal" category...he wasn't a trendy, wannabe racist misanthrope, he hated everybody. I think I still own the documentary about him (VHS) if any body wants it. I'd have to find it first.

David Bowie
Doo wop 50's 

All electronic music, including soundscapes/noise adventures

80's synth

Early thrash metal and stuff like OVERKILL (I love NJ)

Moss Icon, Indian Summer, Antioch Arrow

Born Against

80's synth pop. All of it. Did I mention that?

Bach. Motherfucking Bach.

I could go on and on and on.

I won't.

This was 1% taste.

IRON MAIDEN
QUEENSRYCHE
KRAFTWERK
DEPECHE MODE
ZOUNDZ
CRASS

I agree about GG Allin. He was a fucked up dude in just about every single aspect. I really don't care for his music, specifically because it's so fucked up. I would not endorse him either, that's just another level of weird. As was GG, weird and fucked up on a whole other level.

But i am, however, interested in this VHS you speak of. I've seen brief clips of him on youtube, but I'm not familiar with this documentary. If you could find it, let me know! In the meantime though, I'll just search around online when I'm feeling inclined to do so.

[cr8zykuban0]

yeah he was fucked up forsure but he lived by his hardcore, fuck the world lifestyle. he did what he want, dressed how he want and said what he wanted to say. his music and performances are not for the faint of heart!

[jtucci31]

Yeah i wouldn't really consider spreading shit on his face and raping women on stage a performance, but i guess there was probably music somewhere within that.

Este, I remember that about you now. You are a synthaholic like myself.  Erasure and Depeche Mode are among my personal favorites.  But normally, i sit around in silence.  Except in the bathroom... it's like the 1812 overture up in there.

I love Erasure and DEPECHE Mode.

[NightWolve]

Yeah, add me in the Depeche Mode camp, but didn't we already have a favorite music thread ? I thought I already listed that somewhere along with another fav, Duran Duran.

[HailingTheThings]

Anyone mention King Crimson yet?

In The Court of The Crimson King and In The Wake of Poseidon are wow.

[ParanoiaDragon]

Well, in this crowd, I stick out like a sore thumb, but, here's some stuff I've been listening to lately, yeah, I'm a nerd!

Saw Ran a while back, opened for MC Chris. Yeh. Not that bad.

[ParanoiaDragon]

Cool.  I only discovered him about a month ago, when I heard about his upcoming Command Mission album.  I ended up ordering all the cd's he had available, there's still a few he's gonna ship out in February after his tour.  He seemed excited when I told him about my Turbo CD Mega Man project, so I'm going to keep him in the loop once I've finished it, though, I have no idea if/what he knows about the Turbo.

Gotta love discovering and falling in love with an artist, been there. hehe.

I'm sure he knows about the Turbo, most "Nerdcore" rappers are "'bout it - 'bout it" when it comes to using the internet and gaming.

Ha! Nice! I was just wearing a cap 'n jazz shirt this weekend. Pinkerton rules everything around me!

Where the hell did you get a Cap'n Jazz shirt? I had no idea those even existed! hah i just thought they made them when they were a band, 20 years ago, and were now lost.

I have some random tracks on random old records, but a quick image search reminded me that I have the "Boys 16 to 18..." EP. That's all I really, really know by Cap'n Jazz.

I actually did not know that they ever released an album. So, that's a neat treat to listen to, I hope.

[LostFlunky]

Anyone mention King Crimson yet?

In The Court of The Crimson King and In The Wake of Poseidon are wow.

Crimson up to RED are just about the best band ever.

Oh wow you have the actual record? That's awesome. Where did you get that?

But basically, they released an album that compiled all of their EP's and Demos and whatnot (Boys 16 and 18 is on it). So it's kind of an album, more of an anthologoy. But they called it Analphabetapolothology (say that twice)

[Arkhan Asylum]

I basically have listened to nothing but JPop for the last 2 years straight, lol.

[BlueBMW]

I listen almost exclusively to game soundtracks.  New, old, console, pc, you name it.  I dont care much for music with any vocals unless its like choral or in a language I dont understand.

One of my favorite themes:

And this one:

And maybe this one too:

And to top it off... I love it when people remix musics with real instruments (especially the violin):

[wildfruit]

^^ +1. Not too keen on remixes though. You should see the looks I get when I'm getting dressed in the locker room at work and whack on the y's 3 intro music. No one knows what a pc engine is.

I think there was a full length released on vinyl, but it's SOOPER RAREZ OOP. Schmap and Schmazz I believe it was called (no joke)

Oh yeah i forgot about that one. The cover of that has a little red wagon and has a super long name that follows Schmapin Schmazz.

I really like a lot of the other Kinsella brother bands like Owen, American Football, and Joan of Arc. But between the two of them (and the guitarist from capn jazz started The Promise Ring i believe) there's just so much. I can hardly keep up. All i know is that Cap'n Jazz is one of my favvsss

I was way too into music, including punk/post-punk/hardcore/etc./etc.

I actually did not like the name of the band "Cap n jazz" back in the day, but I was surprised that the music wasn't lame.

There were so many crappy records, amateurish records, goofy records floating around...it didn't take much for me to appreciate the semi-decent stuff.

For example, I really loved a few tracks from a band called "First five through", but I can't find the old EP and I didn't find anything on the interwebz last time I looked.

Anyway, I have a zillion random songs I like from those days when I would find a great song on a random record.

OneSpotFringehead and The Commonwealth...recently I have an urge to find songs by these two (related) bands. Must be the snow, or something.

Haha, I didn't work very hard for it When they played those reunion shows a couple years back, JadeTree were selling them. The Kinsellas rule! Ever heard Owls? It's Cap n Jazz 20 years later with a different (crazy) guitar player. They're SOOOOOO good.

Rush, Bowie, and Excitebike are all winners in my book.  Probably what doesn't show up in a site like last.fm is how often I listen to sunteam_paul's pc engine city podcasts. I think I have most of them memorized and I still enjoy listening to them.

Of all the elders, Bach is my favorite.

Though, despite his politics, Wagner is another biggie.

I prefer heavier, brooding pieces in general, so I'll take a Passion over a William Tell 99 times out of 100.

[jordan_hillman]

Man, where to start...

My teenage years were spent mostly listening to a crap ton of punk/hardcore/crust like: Crass, MDC, Conflict, 7 Seconds, Earth Crisis, Minor Threat, Discharge, Bad Brains, etc.

And my 20s (I'll be 28 this year) have so far been a mix of 80s and 90s post-hardcore/emo/whatever like: Sunny Day Real Estate, Rites of Spring, Jawbreaker, Mineral, Promise Ring, Texas is the Reason, Christie Front Drive, etc...

...Along with some new punk/pop-punk such as Lawrence Arms, The Menzingers, Masked Intruder, Pup, and a whole bunch of other crap.

And I'm one of the lucky ones that got to see Refused play a small venue in SoCal instead of having to pay a butt load to barely be able to see/hear them at a large fest in 2013.
