Music - what do you listen to?

[Paco]

Colplay is good to hear while smoking a nice indica....brings me into the dreamland...uhh I love it...

[Punkindrublic]

As you may have guessed.. Punk rock, but then..
Chilled out acoustic, Jack Johnson, Jose Gonzales. Bit of Coldplay. My favourite to listen to whilst smoking at the moment has to be Bedouin Soundclash = reggae/dub/soul

Genres by order of representing artists:
(METAL)
-Heavy Metal (ex. Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Iron Butterfly, Judas Priest)
-Power Metal (ex. Iced Earth, Hammerfall, Armageddon)
-Thrash (ex. Metallica, Slayer, Annihilator, Megadeth)
-Death Metal (ex. Children of Bodom, In Flames, Carcas)
-Prog Metal (ex. Dream Threatre, Opeth, Watchtower)
-Black Metal (ex. Burzum, the early albums of Cradle of Filth and Children of Bodom)
(ROCK)
-Hard Rock (ex. AC/DC, KISS, Aerosmith)
-Psychedelic (ex. Pink Floyd, The Church)
(ELECTRONICA)
-Industrial (ex. Orgy, Dope, Rammstein, Powerman 5000)
-Goa (ex. Save the Robot, Alien Project)

Please alo note this is a very early list, there were many early rock and hard rock artists which I'd not yet aqquired the music of (Guns'n'Roses, the Beatles, The Yardbirds, Alice Cooper, Thin Lizzy, Rush), a sin, I know. But The point is, I listen to ALOT of music. =P Sure, mostly metal, you'd never guess it looking at me, but I can appreciate anything that posesses good rythm, melody and originality.

Most importantly, I ask everyone, don't criticize the music others listen to simply because you don't appreciate or like it. While I myself used to hate Black Metal, I'm starting to hear the subtle things that make it appreciable. The same goes for Jazz, Hip Hop, or Bluegrass. All you need is exposure, and you may end up liking something you never expected.
