The Prodigy is hands down the best live show I've ever seen. Underworld an easy 3rd. Cafe del Mar has put together some good collections.</p> <p>Rock &amp; alternative through the ages, though I'm partial to the 90's.</p> <p>A little hip-hop, with The Fugees - The Score &amp; Cunninlynguists - Will Rap For Food easily taking the top spots.</p> <p>Some instrumental, Philip Glass &amp; Buddy Rich... Some Canadian The Tragically Hip, Blue Rodeo...</p> <p>Haven't heard a whole lot of heavy metal, apart from Metallica &amp; Tool.</p> <p>As far as game soundtracks, FFVII, Xenogears &amp; Chrono Trigger are hard to beat.</p> <p>Really, an impossible question, as I have almost 5000 mp3s on my computer, and a lot of them are one offs, always seeking a new sound. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5916&page=2#post-36380 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 10:25:22 +0000 ASBI 36380@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>good song by insomnium from their last album </p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7a3q6YBQxM" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7a3q6YBQxM</a> </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5916&page=2#post-35035 Wed, 04 Jul 2012 21:13:29 +0000 Froseidon 35035@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>To name a few bands / artists:<br /> - Shinedown<br /> - Jimmy Eat World<br /> - Linkin Park (Some of their recent stuff has been bad but their new album, too good)<br /> - Flogging Molly<br /> - Daft Punk<br /> - Rise Against<br /> - Johnny Cash<br /> - Bon Jovi*</p> <p>Dubstep is a bit hit and miss. Some is good and some is utter crap (in my opinion). Drum and Bass is good as is electronic as well as rock / alternative.

The man might be dead but his works of art will always live on. Can't wait for september when the Bad 25 special edition comes out with the Bad tour finally on DVD. That said...</p> <p>I dig all kinds of music. I have been loving alot of rap too for awhile, the kind of rap with thought provoking lyrics and you know, the more 'deep' songs. But now and then i could enjoy some club tracks and 'nonsense' tracks as well, just for the music basically. I can also really apreciate Singer/Songwriters like Bruce Springsteen, Johnny Cash, John Hiatt and so on. And recently i 'discovered' Iron Maiden. I was always under the wrong impression that this was some loud heavy metal, you know...similar to Slipknot and the likes. Something i can't stand at all. But i was surprised to how great their music sounds,i'm definitely gonna be checking out more of those.</p> <p>Anyway...with rap i meant..</p> <p>Cypress Hill (they brought me into rap music)<br /> Eminem<br /> 2Pac<br /> Immortal Technique<br /> Atmosphere<br /> Brother Ali<br /> Nas</p> <p>and so on.</p> <p>Recently i've been listening alot to this</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MV_3Dpw-BRY" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MV_3Dpw-BRY</a> </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5916#post-34761 Wed, 27 Jun 2012 00:33:44 +0000 freedoms_stain 34761@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>@ASBI, yeah, one of my favourite all time musicians, he's the front man for The Wildhearts but that particular song is from his solo work.</p> <p>Last year he ran a successful pledge music project, the resultant album from that project was released this week. I believe there's 1 track free on Itunes if you're in the US, otherwise this is it if you're not <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KEkCDqvd7Bg&amp;feature=related" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KEkCDqvd7Bg&amp;feature=related</a> :p</p> <p>The original pledge project was for a 30 track triple album which was deleted at 555% of its goal (5 being Ginger's lucky number), the commercial version is titled 100% and the track list was voted for by 555% pledgers. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5916#post-34758 Tue, 26 Jun 2012 23:33:10 +0000 ejams 34758@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>I listen to pretty much everything except Hip-hop/rap/country like most, apparently. Lately it's been a toss up of metal and other random subgenres:</p> <p>Com Truise - Glawio - <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XaiQrb0X_M" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XaiQrb0X_M</a><br /> This is some fancy 80's sounding electro it's fairly soothing too.</p> <p>Washed Out - Feel it all around -<br /> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DkslcOhytU" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DkslcOhytU</a><br /> This has to be the most chill song ever to exist, just makes you feel so good. The genre is called Chillwave, there's only a few other bands making music from it but they're all pretty good.</p> <p>Neutral Milk Hotel - King of Carrot Flowers Pt. 1 -<br /> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LULmbLlPvVk" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LULmbLlPvVk</a><br /> More on the indie/alternative side of things, this whole album is quality and I think has to be my favourite album ever, and it all begins with this song. </p> <p>Fleshgod Apocalypse - The Violation - <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ie165Bw6kNU" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ie165Bw6kNU</a><br /> And here's some technical symphonic death metal to appease all of you metalheads. The entire album is pretty solid, and the next best song is called The Betrayal, I'd highly recommend also checking it out. The drummer is a beast.</p> <p>That's just a selection of random picks, some stuff I could listen to forever :D </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5916#post-34751 Tue, 26 Jun 2012 20:32:06 +0000 ASBI 34751@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>@freedoms_stain </p> <p>Dude .. that song is sooooooo addictive &lt;3 </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5916#post-34724 Tue, 26 Jun 2012 15:43:02 +0000 Ireland Michael 34724@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>I finally have an excuse to post this: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c94MD7GlAuo" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c94MD7GlAuo</a></p> <p>I'm not a huge Skrillex fan - he's the equivalent of "My first dubstep" - but hey, it's Mortal Kombat.</p> <p>Doomsday is a bloody awesome song though.

Going back their early days all of the way on up to the newest stuff.</p> <p>I like almost everything, from Berry, Holly, and other early Rock and Roll all of the way on up to Shinedown.</p> <p>Mostly I like Metal, but not the stuff that goes so far out of its way to be different and edgy. I don't have an axe to grind anymore and don't need my tunes to show I am pissed off at the world lol.</p> <p>What I do NOT enjoy is hip-hop or rap. Just have zero use for that. I am not Ghetto, I am not Gangster, hell I am not even urban. I just can't get into it. I am not a Country Western fan either. Tho I do enjoy a few acts that dable in the stuff I don't like. I like LP, but that is mostly because Chester Bennington is beyond amazing vocaly. I enjoy old Garth Brooks music, couldn't explain it, just do.</p> <p>Other things in my iPod right now include Styx, Van Morrison, Guns n Roses, Motley Crue, Rolling Stones, Beattles, Green Day, Bon Jovi, Posion, Alice Cooper, Boston, Scorpions, Shinedown, Disturbed, Cinderella, Aerosmith, Meatloaf, The Animals, Perl Jam, AC/DC, Jim Croce, Oasis, Skid Row, Led Zeplen, Cream, Queen, The YardBirds, and many many more.</p> <p>My tastes are all over the place. But mostly "I Love Rock n Roll"(Joan Jet) and "New wave, Old Wave, it's Still Rock N Roll to Me"(Billy Joel) are the ideals that I enjoy music by. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5916#post-34711 Tue, 26 Jun 2012 11:30:33 +0000 ASBI 34711@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>@young0</p> <p>thought u might be interested in this </p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGtnBnmJ8MA" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGtnBnmJ8MA</a></p> <p>NIER has an awesome list of soundtracks </p> <p>also Fist of the north star has some awesome soundtracks .. at least for metalheads :P</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7qRfKNWJx4" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7qRfKNWJx4</a><br /> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tz2zH6xT9F4" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tz2zH6xT9F4</a><br /> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eh5m8VUcJVA" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eh5m8VUcJVA</a><br /> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kabsux_O7mM" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kabsux_O7mM</a><br /> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXGvpmkLcfg" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXGvpmkLcfg</a></p> <p>check it out guys .. it is really great8) </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5916#post-34706 Tue, 26 Jun 2012 10:28:44 +0000 sweetleon7 34706@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Hii guys my hobbies to listen a love song all the time and here i want to share my favourite music its "I want to be your hero" by enrique iglesias its really awesome and loving song. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5916#post-34359 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 00:55:49 +0000 freedoms_stain 34359@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>I can't be arsed getting into it, so here's my favourite song atm.</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-bxzaIWqfw" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-bxzaIWqfw</a> </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5916#post-34353 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 22:50:27 +0000 DSB 34353@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Definitely, Triggerhappy. The Black Keys are brilliant.</p> <p>If I had to make a very general statement as to why rock n roll (mostly) sucks today, it's because musicians have forgotten that the whole foundation for that music is the blues. </p> <p>If it doesn't have that rhythm, then it just doesn't hit people as deep.
