Hello Folks!
I've been wondering recently if any of You boys from hell have other musical inspirations than long-hairish-speed-death-metal kinda thing ? :err:

how'bout You ,Steve?
 
Jesus, yeah I do. Lately I've been listening to a shit-ton of Dinosaur Jr. Also:
My Bloody Valentine
Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Rush
Heresy
Crumbsuckers
Deep Wound
Vivaldi
The Cure
Melvins
Dysrythmia
Pan-Thy-Monium
Thin Lizzy

I listen to a lot of different stuff.
 
If you like Spastic Ink/Watchtower/Spiral Architect/Cynic/Any of that technical kinda stuff, you should check out Thelonious Monk.

While you're at it, listen to some Charlie Parker too. Cause, he's awesome.
 
The more diversity you have in your cd room, the better you are. It's funny when i was younger i use to think some style of music were dumb and just couldn't get it.......good thing i don't think the same. But i still hate Dance and western music.......that will personnaly never change.

I really like Elvis, Beatles, Neil Young..............well the more you know, the better you are.
 
Latelly I´ve been listening to "Cheiro de Vida" (Brazilian Prog/Funk/whatever) from the early 90s, The Hellecasters (Instrumental country music - GREAT stuff), random stuff from Nico Assumpção (Brazilian bassist, the best IMHO)... And Death Metal. =P
