My favourite artists include (but are not limited to) Alkaline Trio, Enigma, Nightwish, Jack's Mannequin and Evanescence. I happen to have only 35 CDs! But I'm going to buy Evanescence's new one, plus all of Enigma's, Jack's Mannequin... and so on. Does anyone here listen to any of these bands/artists?

my favorite band of all time is Garbage.
my favorite type of music is Industrial Metal (i.e. Rammstein, Static-X, Ministry) i also love psychobilly music (i.e. Nekromantix, Demented Are Go!, Mad Sin)
I got to meet the Lunachicks in the summer of 2000 @ the warped tour. they were amazing live.
i know theo has another band. not as good as the lunachicks tho.

I met the Lunachicks in San Francisco and while they were on tour in europe. i got a tattoo from squid (bassist) when i went to visit them in brooklyn. i don't really like theo's new sound and gina's either (bantam). i just wish squid would finally form a band!

My favourite bands are DeVotchKa, Gogol Bordello, Radiohead, The White Stripes, The Decemberists to name but a few...I have loads of music though and I listen to a range of stuff although I draw the line at a lot of pop music.

people tend to love or hate the White Stripes. I always liked blues anyway so I really enjoy their music. I have to admit, I never saw the apeal of garbage.

i could never stand the band coldplay. then, when i was in sweden in 2004, i heard keane for the very first time and was hooked! and shortly after that - and after people kept telling me that keane sounds like coldplay - i started listening to coldplay like them now as well. but still not as much as keane.
some bands just totally get you hooked, others not...
thank god though, if everyone would love the same kind of music and the same bands, music would get sooo boring.

some bands just totally get you hooked, others not... I think it's a lot about coincidences. Sometimes people ask me if they could send me a song by their favourite band. And quite often actually, I tell them that no, don't send me anything, because I am in a bad mood. And there's no way I will like it if I'm in a bad mood. I have to be in a special mood to be open to new music. I have never liked Garbage either, and not The Cure or Placebo <-- bands that people keep recommending me to listen to. And something that annoys me is that only because I happen to like the same band as someone else doesn't automatically mean that I share their whole music taste. And only because I like (for example) one metal band doesn't mean that I'll like the rest because - let's accept it - metal can be everything between heaven and hell. Lately, because I have a job where I have the opportunity to listen to radio, I have gotten into more Swedish music which I really appreciate.
