Besides metal...

[Hatebreeder]

...what else do you listen to? I, for one, am a big fan of indie rock. I enjoy bands like Mogwai, The Arcade Fire, Sigur Ros, Franz Ferdinand, The Futureheads, The Flaming Lips, At The Drive-In, and the Mars Volta. There's more, but those are just my main choices. Feel free to list your own non-metallic loves here.

hmmm, whatever you would Classify Trashlight Viosion as i listen to that sort of thing, rock, some rap, alot of 80's stuff, really anything, even a little country here and there

I'm starting to develop a liking for music which features an attractive female singer.

 

[Chamet]

i would have to say punk, but not them new, fag "punk" bands, i dont even know how they call their music punk...
i enjoy bands like mojiganga, rancid, nofx...

 

[Profanity]

Punk is too close to Metal to be classed as different.

 

[MIMA]

nothing , acutally metal is what i listen to all the time.

 

[Hatebreeder]

Exactly. Punk follows a strict DIY ethic, and all these mainstream bands have forgotten that.

A lot of things.. I'm a music passionate & sound engineer, then I love listening to many kind of music.. I listen as much electronical (Trip-Hop & House) than metal, stuff life Lamb, Silent Poets, Daft Punk, A Forest Mighty Black, Boards of Canada, Archive, Mandalay, Ellen Allien.. I listen to flamenco, jazz and guitar instrumentals a lot, one of my favorite musician ever is John Butler, I like Paco de Lucia's work too anyway.. Classical music is something not to miss, even if I can understand than it can be boring for some.. Pop/Rock music is cool too sometimes, like KT Tunstall, Muse, Placebo, Vertical Horizon, that kind of things you can hear on well-known radio stations.. I'm a hudge Porcupine Tree fan, and in general of leader Steven Wilson's works, he's such a musical genius.. Rap often sucks, excepted the old ones, oriental music is sometimes cool, dance and power metal suck sooooo much, and I can't make any difference between R'N'B singers. Well I guess that's all, in general case I listen to music all the time, in a way or another, and not always metal.

True...Iron Maiden's roots were in punk, and look at all the bands that they influenced. And the soloing was common in both of them.

I have long been criticising modern pop music but i've changed my mind after hearing Automatic's "Monster"

Punk and Metal are both an extreme form of Rock with aggressive delivery.

I've never liked pop music. Even when I was a little kid, I'd listen to Final Fantasy soundtracks and scores from films like Star Wars. Actually, my musical tastes regressed for a while until I got back into metal which, in turn, got me back into symphonic music and film scores.

 

[War_Blade]

I listen to classical music

 

[Profanity]

Well bwhen I was a kid I liked kiddies music and christmas music. It wasn't until I was 12 when I got into Pop music which was good at the time(blur, oasis, ocean color scene) but the first album I ever bought was Nirvana "Nevermind" in october 1995 and in summer of 1996 I got into Metallica from Music channels which used to play songs off reload.

 

[Profanity]

I listen to classical music

cool, who are your favourites. I think Mozart is the best all round composer but Beethoven wrote the best and most powerful symphonies.

 

[War_Blade]

paganini
malmsteen
mozart
beethoven
bach
Williams

 

[Hatebreeder]

I like Beethoven the most because his music has much more force in it. My favorite composers tend to be the ones that are heavier on the brass and horns sections, more so than string composers like Mozart.
