Jazz soothes the soul, and it is a BLAST to play. I love being able to pick up my tenor and just mess around on the Bflat and G blues scales.

Out of interst, what artists?

**jariksolo**

I did other Becuase i dont listen to music.

**dark6spectre**

anything remotely to do with Rock, from blues all the way up to the heavy stuff.
But i do like my Rap and a bit of hip hop. In fact two of my favourite bands are a mix of Rock and Rap (Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit)

**Toastedandy**

Trance, rap, hip hop, rock, blues, country, metal, classical.....everything I suppose

**odh1nn**

First and foremost is METAL - black, death, viking, grindcore, you name it. Being a musician all the way through college I have quite the taste for classical, too. For inspiration, if I'm not listening to classical I usually go with soundtracks (the score type), usually scifi or fantasy driven like Total Recall, Conan, Rise of Legends, Haegemonia, etc.

**Grenat**

I am fond of classical music, indie and trancelike. I like symphonic metal.
I have maaaaaaaaaaany Movies and games OST to listen, too

**lukewild1982**

I am also a big fan of classical male vocalists. Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennet, Andy Williams, Marvin Gaye (I know it mo town specifically)

**Smitty**

All except Rap, HipHop, Indie, Pop, Emo, and House.

Yes! The Conan soundtrack is phenomenal! Basil Poledouris did an amazing job!

I have a really broad taste in music, because I studied music for three whole years in the gymnasium (high school to you native english speakers), so I learned to appreciate the qualities of every genre. The only genres I don't listen to personally are indie, rap, emo and newer pop music. I love music festivals (go Roskilde!), so I also see much of this music live. The music I listen to mostly is death metal, including subgenres such as melodic, brutal and technical. I spend a lot of time listening to bands like Amon Amarth, Nile, Meshuggah, Suffocation, Autopsy and Lamb of God, but I also listen a lot to Candlemass. If you go further back in time, bands like Rammstein and Metallica and even further back, Slipknot, were in my CD player all the time.

Shoegaze.

It's pretty obscure, most people in this thread probably haven't heard of it.

**EagleArk**

Does it involve shoes, or gazing?

(care to link us to some? please?)

Pmsl - good call dude.

Slipknot FTW on me - all the way. Saw them at Sonisphere a couple of weeks ago - it was nothing short of incredible tbh. I play in a band myself too, just starting this one out, again all about that metal feeling baby
