This is going to be a tough one. This is in no particular order:

The Smashing Pumpkins (The Aeroplane Flies High, Glass + the Ghost Children, Cherub Rock, By Starlight, The Beginning Is the End Is the Beginning)
Nine Inch Nails (Gave Up, Ruiner, Sanctified, 4 Ghosts I, 6 Ghosts I)
Red Hot Chili Peppers (Can't Stop, Soul to Squeeze, I Could Have Lied)
Sublime (What I Got, Wrong Way, Santeria, Saw Red, Smoke Two Joints)
Tool (Prison Sex, Sober, Stinkfist, Schism, The Pot)

I also like this local band called The Lonely Forest. They are like the best indie band I've heard in a long time. I've seen them twice in concert and they bring the house down.

It's always changing but definitely

-Black Sabbath - I've loved them since I got We Sold our Souls for Rock and Roll on vinyl when I was 12
-Mercyful Fate - I just got into this stuff but I really like it
-Metallica - First four albums are sweet, I have a lot of cool concerts, their Dallas Ozzfest show from this month was good
-Wu-Tang Clan and solo acts- First wave of albums '93 to '96 are awesome
-Beatles
MF Doom - Operation Doomsday
Quasimoto - First album
Eazy-E - Listening since I was 9
David Axelrod and other breaks

A year after my last post in this thread, here's my current lineup:

The Killers
Mae
Snow Patrol
Anberlin
Augustana



I plug these five (mainly the top 2) into Pandora frequently and typically love anything it spits out.

I really don't listen to the radio or anything, so I never even heard The Killers until I got Guitar Hero 3 for Christmas. Then I listened to them on Pandora a bunch and just recently bought the Hot Fuss and Sam's Town CDs off Amazon

Iron Maiden
Nightwish
Creedence Clearwater Revival
Blind Guardian
Dragonforce

I feel like a metalhead dork with these bands listed, but I also listen to more cheesy 80s pop music than most people.
