Good list. Fond of The Cranberries, Enya, Beatles, Police and Queen meself! Enya's March of the Celts inspired me so hardcore.
I have a very broad music taste, as long as the band uses at least 1 guitar, a bass and drums. This means lots of stuff from Rock to Death Metal - so here are some good examples of awesome music
Also, due to prejudice and such, i feel i should point out that i do NOT worship satan and i do NOT condone violence (except in video games )

Thanks! Not to offend anyone, but today's so-called "music" is nothing but...ahem... crap.
(Gasp!) At least the old bands such as The Beatles, Johnny Cash, Eric Clapton...etc... had actual talent, now-a-days (it seems) you don't have to be able to sing worth a darn in order to be able to make it to the "big screen." They just use Synthesizers
to change their voice, or add some special "wah-wah" effect. I know, if I've offended anyone, I'm really sorry- that's just my view. I'm not saying that EVERY newbie band is junk, because there are some really good ones out there!
I guess I'm just a redneck.

agreed. how about those dime-a-dozen skanks with big jugs that all sound the same and don't even write their own music (and the ones that complain that they write their own but only write crappy lyrics that have one catchy rhyme repeated 12 times). or those wannabe punk bands that think they're gods gift to music because their on the top of the charts (and pretty much have destroyed the overall message punk was trying to convey in the first place). or disney chanell crap like the jonas brother or britney spears or hannah montana? or those whiney little popular kids that say they listen to "everything" just because they listen to the popular mix channel.
fun fact, in music study, pop music is everything that isn't considered classical. think about that.
problably the only newer bands that are getting anywhere in the charts that i actually like are muse (and dumb kids like their worst songs, *ahem*supermassive blackhole*ahem*)and lamb of god.
ive been listening to alot of kaki king lately.
megadeth~!
muse
in flames
slayer
this video is just lawl
sorry, i was in a metal mood tonite. ill tone it down a bit.
leo kottke
marshall tucker band
country sucks nowadays too. dont forget that.
ill finish with the beatles
(i feel like a tool for posting let it be, but hell, its a great tribute video, leave me alone.)
I was trying to keep my list short, unlike Chloe It's good to see others can appreciate awesome musicians like Megadeth and Slayer They should've been on my list too, but as i said - i was trying to keep it short
I totally agree. (I absolutely HATE the Jonas Brothers!! Along with all the other Disney crap.) People like that only seem to get famous because they've got the money.
("and the ones that complain that they write their own but only write crappy lyrics that have one catchy rhyme repeated 12 times")
I really laughed at this, good point! They take lyrics; or are influenced from other bands, pick and choose their lyrics and write another song that's just as bad.
I don't know if that's even half-way true, but it sure seems it! That's my hypothesis on how today's songs are written. ...Natural Selection...?)
Ok, I could go on all day complaining 'bout these new "bands".
I'll have to look into LOG and Muse more, I haven't really listened to much of their music, but they are good from what I hear!

they are both very good. that video i posted for muse is a good start.
the most offensive thing to hear is people who dont write their own music, or ignorantly stand by and let people butcher their already shitty music call themselves "artists". dictionary.com lists that as "a person used to carry out the designs of another; a dupe." actually thats the definition for "tool", but you get my point.

Hehe, yeah I've listened to a lot of metal especially black/death/doom metal except I only listen as I enjoy the sound waves they produce not necessarily as I agree with their views/beliefs.

Like everyone been saying I've been listening to music that is based off my game I am currently working on.
For example I've been listening to alot of Robin Beanland and Grant Kirkhope's music tracks for the N64 era.
Although then I've been walking around town, I'll stick on the new JulienK album or Innerpartysystem album.

I haven't really listened to Chuck Berry before, do you know any good albums I could check out?
Drum n bass & Dubstep mostly these days :] Although never pass up abit of Rise Against or the stuff Topher mentioned!
Chase & Status, Scratch perverts, Logistics. Saw Chase & Status at Custard Factory in Birmingham last night/morning and they played a wicked drum n bass remix of RATM - Killing in the name of. Was pretty epic.
