what music do you listen to?

[Evil]

what music do you listen to when you draw and/or use ags? do you have anyother things that you do while you do this?
Music i listen to:
goo goo dolls, rhcp, ozzy, and korn but i am usally talking to ladies on the phone.
Other stuff:
eat, light candles, talk on the phone.

[jAcK-o]

personally, while i draw/paint/write etc. I like to listen to a wide variety of music depending upon my mood at the time, or the mood i want to transfer myself into.
Favorites will always be:
The Cure, Nine Inch Nails, Sisters of Mercy, Bauhaus, Linkin Park, Deadsy, Orgy, Machines of Loving Grace, Gary Numan and of course, TOOL.  
There are of course other bands in my music selection, but, those usually take the cake when i am in my arsty, lets drink wine and be an insomniac phase.  
Of course, i always have the room dimmed and light candles, and HAVE to have a full pack of ciggies nearby.
Anywho, ramble on do i.

[Trapezoid]

They Might Be Giants and Oingo Boingo are my top favorite bands (too bad only TMBG are still together!) I also love Weezer, Cornelius, Cake, Frank Black, Cornelius, Ben Folds, Weird Al, and Cornelius. There's also a bunch of MP3.com artists whom I enjoy, such as Logan Whitehurst, Pocket Dwellers, The Fullerenes, and uh, Trapezoid... You can always check them out.

[TheYak]

Varies with season and mood. If I'm feeling a bit goofy, it'll be Barenaked Ladies, King Missile, Cake, Cracker, Simon & Garfunkel, Tenacious D, the Vandals or Millencolin.  If I'm more into the pissed-off mode it'll be Godsmack, Bad Religion, NoFX, Strung Out or any other number of punk bands.  If I'm moody, it'll be classical, Stabbing Westward, Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong, or The Cure.  (I'm eclectic, if anything, I suppose)

Dim lighting a must.  A full pack of smokes - -definate must.  A full pot of coffee -- a good start.  Midnight or later -- best time.  Corpse of some sort within viewing distance -- helps sometimes (occasionally have to slaughter a gnat to accomplish this requirement).

I feel as if I replied to this thread many times, so this time I'd go with a few special songs that come to my mind.

These are all magical.

There's also one song that I listen to when I'm very happy because something good happened to me. It's "I've seen this face before" by Grace Jones. Come to think of it, I haven't heard it in ages.

Other bands I really like are Three Dog Night, Aerosmith, The Moody Blues, Stone Temple Pilots, Steve Miller Band, The Laziest Men on Mars, The B52s, Blondie, They Might Be Giants, Duran Duran, The Monkees and The Beatles.

I like most anything from the 80's (Which is one of the reasons GTA: Vice City is one of my favorite games ever) and early 90's rap about video games or cartoons (Ninja Rap!) and music from video games in general. I also like Captain Lou Albano, especially in his Super Mario Brothers Super Show days. And looking at my Winamp list, I have more clips from MST3K than I do anything else.

[Goldmund]

Yum.

[Barcik]

I'm a rock guy, though what I am really into is metal (preferably trash metal) and not the sissy stuff which is on MTV. Nothing beats a song with good guitar-bashin music. So my favourties are : Metallica (!), Nirvana, Iron Maiden, Nevermore, Iced Earth, Rammstein (some of it), Nightwish and other various stuff.

[Evil]

zappa. i havent heard that name in a while. i really like the rock stuff but the mid 90's stuff os my favorite. like fastball, tonic, radiohead. that was a really good time in music. and here is a good one. what are your thoughts on manson? i like his music but he dresses like a woman...

[Barcik]

what are your thoughts on manson? i like his music but he dresses like a woman...

I like his music, as well.

[Trapezoid]

Some more artists I like to are Mr. Bungle, No Doubt, Moxy Fruvous, Polysics, Devo, The Velvet Teen, and Mark Lovegrove.

[Barcik]

...and Mark Lovegrove.

You mean that guy from n'Sync?

[Evil]

yes i love no doubt. but its like sponge bob. it was cool when no one else watched it. now its not cool. no doubt was cool but they are to popular now. now i dont like them as much.
and this is why manson scares me

he looks like whore

[Trapezoid]

Yeah, by No Doubt I'm referring to the Tragic Kingdom era. And Manson's a dweeb. His gimmickyness exceeds his talent tenfold...

[Erwin_Br]

Bryan Adams (I'm going to his concert in March, yay!)
Queen
The Eagles
REM
Weird Al Y.

various MP3's and MIDI's from LucasArts adventuregames. (MI, SnM, Indy)

[Las Naranjas]

Pesty-Aquabats? Wierd Al? TMBG?

Nerd!




All three (Along with groups like Tenacious D) are funny. Immense talent and nothing to say.



Rubix Cuba! http://www.rubixcuba.com


Timosity-Even with some of the ones they've heard of, the list may prove informative. It's amazing to know how many people think ACDC are American. And rest assured one person here know's the Porkers.

[Trapezoid]

TMBG? Funny? Well, I guess they're pretty funny in some cases. A lot of their songs are only funny if you're not paying attention.

[Las Naranjas]

I meant funny in terms of what they are, not what they write.


The fact they have immense amounts of talent, but write songs that often sound meanigful, but have relatively nonsense lyrics.
Like Stormy Pinkness, or Road Movie To Berlin.

They do have lyrics that mean something occasionally.

[MrColossal]

Goldmun: upper right arm, sorry to disappoint

I like manson, i can't explain it, i just do and i don't feel i need to explain it *fires random evil looks at sylpher* i don't think he's the antichrist or anything special, he's just a smart man with a band

and Pesty: rock on with the MC Chris... I heartell his backpack contains jets.

and i totally forgot: The flaming lips, My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult, The Beta Band and for shits and giggles Voltaire

my playlist also includes SubZero by Praga Kahn and Hulkster In Heaven by Hulk Hogan... but that doesn't mean that I like them there

[Pesty]

he looks like whore

He dresses like Christina Aguliera. I was half expecting him to be in the Lady Marmelade video. Then again, I was expecting Bootsy Collins in the Lady Marmelade video too. That would've been a great music video.

Oranges -  I'm not a nerd!!1! I haven't even seen the newest Lord of the Rings movie!

Maestro Colossal - I usually hate rap, but how can you hate rap about Boba Fett by a nerdy cartoonist? And is 'SubZero by Praga Kahn' the SubZero song featured in Bob the Angry Flower? I've always wondered who that guy was. If it is, then I add that to my favorite music list as well.

[NTL.]

I don't exactly like rap. Or heavy metal.

[MrColossal]

hehe yea pesty, that's the song...

Praga Kahn apparently made it... and if you don't know who he is he's married to the lead singer from Lords of Acid and they do crazy techno sex together... and for some reason he did Sub Zero

which is why i love him...

and the awesome thing is MC Chris used to live near me in the city... and he went to the Upright Citizen's Brigade Theater! and that's where he got his jorb pretty much!!

SOMEONE DISCOVER ME!

[Goldmund]

I very much like videos of Marilyn Manson, whereas I don't dig the music itself. I think that the videos started a very interesting trend, something like "utter beauty in ugliness". Like in Tourniquet (sp?), Sweet dreams etc.

[ratracer]

I usually go for one CD that stays there for more than a month.
So, probably this year I didn't have more than:
Yes
Jethro Tull
Gentle Giant
Genesis
Bruford
and JL Ponty

[Ben]

Pixies, Beck, REM, Weezer, Radiohead, Tool, RHCP, Violent Femmes, Nada Surf, Ozma (California band), Rustic Overtones (dead local band), Beatles, Nirvana and.. um.. um.. um.. Foo Fighters.

[magintz]

Punk and Ska type stuff.

My three favourite bands are (and fav. song by them):
Reel Big Fish (She has a girlfriend now)
[spunge] (Kicking Pidgeons)
Greenday (Blood Sex and Booze)

I also like reggae (sp)......

And trance is strangly addictive to listen too...

[TheYak]

Thats just some I can Think of in no particular order, the ones with (AUS) are Australian bands you may or may not have heard of.

Well, since there are very few "seconds" to my selections, I gotta say Frenzal Rhomb and The Mad Caddies kick ass.  (don't care too much for Mad Caddies recent ska-only trend (sounds too much like 311)

[cpage]

Lets see....
Weezer
Ozma<---- awsome meaningfull lyrics
The Who
ZZ top
Tenacious D
Eric Clapton
Hot Water Burns Babies
More weezer
The beatles
Styx<---pre roboto
Greenday

MxPx< older stuff
Fastball
The Format <----awsome band

The vandles
The Ataris
Less Than Jake
Bouncing Souls

Latest additions:

[Timosity]

(don't care too much for Mad Caddies recent ska-only trend (sounds too much like 311)

I don't know if I've heard any recent stuff, but I saw them about 1.5 years ago in Sydney, I've got their album Quality Softcore and I've d/l some songs from Duck and Cover. They are great to see live, They for me are better live than Frenzal, Frenzal are great on disc but live they play too fast. I went backstage and met the guys from The mad caddies, It's good to see they are just average blokes not some up themselves try hard rockstars, I guess that goes with not being a huge band, they haven't lost their heads, Same with Frenzal, I met Jay from Frenzal about 10 years ago, now he's the only original member left, I'm not close friends or anything just really an Acquaintance.

If they sound like 311 now that's a bad move, but oh well, I'm sure they're still good to see live, Do they play very often around California, I think They're from Santa Barbara is that near you?

[Las Naranjas]

The caddies have one of the most awesome horn section ever.

But then the rest seems uninteresting.

But the horns are ace!

And Frenzal split up (they kicked off their bass player) and since Shihad became Pacifier for the American market, Frenzal became Shihad, and immedietly scored another American contract.



Reel Big Fish have a nice catchy song, they just release every few months again.

[Highwaygal_loggedoff]

Bands I like:
Ska-
Mad caddies
Spunge
Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Rubix Cuba
Reel Big Fish
Skankin' Pickle

[DGMacphee]

Yeah, by No Doubt I'm referring to the Tragic Kingdom era. And Manson's a dweeb. His gimmickyness exceeds his talent tenfold...

Have you seen Bowling For Columbine? I've never been a big fan of his music, but I find him a very intelligent and interesting person. In fact, he's quite normal compared to other people in the doco...



As for my music tastes, I've been listening to Sarah McLachlan lately... Other then that: REM, Paul Weller, New Order, Radiohead, Elbow, The Stone Roses, Simon and Garfunkel, Peter Gabirel, The Beatles, Doves, Muse, early U2, and some Annie Lennox...

[NTL.]

I also like Jim Croce! I can listen to him all day. Bad Bad Leroy Brown, Hes the baddest man in the whole darn town,
or, moving me down the highway, Rollin me down the highway, movin ahead so life won't pass me by!

His songs have a lot of meaning, along with GOOD soundtracks. Too bad he only had two albums.

[Shattered Sponge]

I'm with DeeGee - I never really thought much of Manson, but after seeing Bowling for Columbine I gained a lot of respect for him.

[Proskrito]

No one even mentioned Led Zeppelin!!! nor Jimi Hendrix.... WTF!!

[Pesty]

No one even mentioned Led Zeppelin!!! nor Jimi Hendrix.... WTF!!

I really don't like Led Zeppelin because I consider Robert Plant to be an untalented, drunken harpy in disguise. It's difficult because I love Jimmy Page, but I shall never get over my intense dislike for that poofy haired idiot that sings for them.

[Trapezoid]

I mentioned Mr Bungle earlier... I want you all to buy their 1999 album "California" right now. It's awsome.

[Fuzzpilz]

A list, in no particular order and incomplete:

(insert the usual "classical" composers here, especially Bach)

[Las Naranjas]

Hey Gal-When they're done mastering the new single, i was told to give it to you to spread round Israel.

Stick around!

[Sluggo]

Believe it or not, I used to listen to Mr. Bungle all the time. It still holds a special place in my heart. But anyway yeah, I recommend their first CD (I think it was just called 'Mr. Bungle'). Everything's great on that. I can't say I liked much from the third CD though (California). The only song I really liked was Sweet Charity. And, uh Disco Volante sucked ( I never even bothered to buy the CD).

[TheYak]

(don't care too much for Mad Caddies recent ska-only trend (sounds too much like 311)

If they sound like 311 now that's a bad move, but oh well, I'm sure they're still good to see live, Do they play very often around California, I think They're from Santa Barbara is that near you?

Heh, I was actually referring to Quality Softcore. =]  Maybe I'm mistaken and they're moving away from it.  I bought two of their albums..  Rock the Plank and Q.S.  I didn't like the Ska of Q.S. but think Rock the Plank is a total frickin' work of art.  I haven't seen 'em but wouldn't mind.. Santa Barbara's about 5 hours away from me but I'm near some decent show cities... San Francisco being one.  I've currently added (though tentatively until I hear more of it) Tsunami Bomb to my list.. one of the few female punk vocalists I like and they're from my area (two of 'em work at the local music store).

[Trapezoid]

Tsunami Bomb... that's Logan Whitehurst's sister's band. Logan is r0x0r.

[TheYak]

Tsunami Bomb... that's Logan Whitehurst's sister's band. Logan is r0x0r.

Heh.. I was just listening to a Sam and Max Disco mp3 I have around...  and just noticed the author. >=]

[Las Naranjas]

I have your MI2 techno medly, I remember downloading it from a 1337speak infested site.

shame Trap, shame.

[Timosity]

I mentioned Mr Bungle earlier... I want you all to buy their 1999 album "California" right now. It's awsome.

Yeah Trap, I love Mr Bungle, I haven't heard California, I haven't listened to Bungle since about 1996 although I did see them in about 1999 so I guess I've probably heard some of the stuff. It was a really cool gig too, it was in Las Naranjas home town just in a small pub, Mike Patton was just walking around the place too, I never realised how small the guy is.
It's pretty cool seeing some rich as fuk guy, just playing small gigs in local towns. makes you realise he's not just in it for the money and actually loves what he does.

I  also saw Fantomas last year or the year before, geez now it might even be the year before that, that gig was awsome, they are pretty similar to Bungle though.

Ah I forgot I like Primus too, I've seen them about 5 or 6 times, Awsome live.

Ministry, Awesome live

The Stray Cats, you gotta love that Rockabilly stuff, Brian Setzer is a legend guitar player, and singer. I can't believe a few years ago I saw the Brian Setzer Orchestra playing in that night club in Beverley hills 90210, that spun me out, and yes I watched that show, I graduated in 1993, the same year as them even though they were probably 10-20 years older than me at the time.

The Living End (AUS) They basically started as a Stray Cats Cover band, but I They write some pretty cool original stuff, They kick ass live, or did a few years ago.

Everyone go and see bands Live, heaps better than staying at home listening to them, but these days they cost a fking fortune

[Las Naranjas]

Live music is still cheap as hell in Newcastle.

my brother saw NoFX for $10 and Fanny's, if you remember that place.

[Timosity]

yeah Fanny's Is where I saw Bungle but I did also see them a few years before at the Cambridge.

Yeah Local bands are usually about 10 bucks, which is good, but even some in Sydney these days are 20 or 30.

International bands are damn expensive though, well large ones, Chili Peppers was aound 100, but that's the top of the scale, band like Reel Big Fish or the like cost about 30 or 40

but The Mad Caddies were about 10 - 15

For anyone reading this, This is in Australian dollars so it's probably cheaper than it sounds to Americans and Europeans

How much Do similar bands cost overseas?

[Trapezoid]

Heh.. I was just listening to a Sam and Max Disco mp3 I have around...  and just noticed the author. >=]

Yep. Me.

I have your MI2 techno medly, I remember downloading it from a 1337speak infested site.
shame Trap, shame.

Eh? I was unaware that there was a 1337 site carrying my music.
(oh well, that song's old now. Monkey Brain Soup for the Soul is far superior.)

Yeah Trap, I love Mr Bungle, I haven't heard California.

Well, you should go get it. It's more mature than their previous albums, and more carefully orchestrated (which is saying something, because their older work was already extremely well crafted.)

[Las Naranjas]

The site was copyright Niel Cigliera.

And it was from a link you posted at Mixnmojo :/

[Trapezoid]

Ohh... I think I know what you mean. Trapezoid's Music from Hell. Man, that was a while ago. The side menu had random capitalizations, like "mAIn pAgE". That could be mistaken for 1337.

[Las Naranjas]

Yeah, I was exaggerating the 1337 aspect.

[Helm]

What the hell. Here we go, once again:

I'll just save this again for the next time a thread of this type resurfaces.

What, no GWAR? I like my share of metal, but to me, nothing tops GWAR.

[Las Naranjas]

Didja need to quote?


My brother is the lead singer in Sum 41.

Well, not really, but they are identical, it's spooky. Especially since my brother dyed his hair black, then went to see them (At fanny's, for $10 yet again, with Unwritten Law as well), and the singer had done the same.

[Trapezoid]

Really, that's odd. I used to be black, then I turned white, and then Michael Jackson TOTALLY ripped me off.

[Pesty]

Didja need to quote?

Yes, because I'm so very, very evil. I was actually going to replace the entire quote with "a bazillion bands that aren't GWAR", but I forgot. I'm not going to bother editing it because, as previously stated, I'm evil.

Trap - Is your nose falling apart, causing you to go insane? Or is that something Michael Jackson stole from somebody else?

[BruisedWeasel]

Well, I guess it's finally time to come clean. I like Brian Adams. I listen to nothin but Brian Adams. I keep a doll with his photo over the face next to me when I sleep. My wet dreams are filled with frolicks along beaches leading up to Brain Adams singing for me. I suppose I should be ashamed. But I am not.

[Trapezoid]

Jacko lifted (no pun intended) the nose thing from the frigging Sphinx. If an ancient dirt clod statue isn't safe from Jacko's gimme-grabby offripping, who is?

[Evil]

for those of you who missed it... HELM LISTENS TO BRITNEY SPEARS!!! HAHAHAHA!!! i thought this day would never come... this is evil's longest thread btw...

[Helm]

I don't exactly listen to britney spears if you know what I mean *nudge nudge* *wink wink* *ejaculate ejaculate*

[NTL.]

I hate Britney.

[Visti]

I also listen to Cannibal Corpse. And N*sync.

[Las Naranjas]

I've got a suckering for angsty music, which is funny because I ridicule angst whereever I find it, but then listen to the Violent Femmes, or El Scorcho or something of the like.

Then watch angsty tenn films for mock value.

[Proskrito]

I really don't like Led Zeppelin because I consider Robert Plant to be an untalented, drunken harpy in disguise. It's difficult because I love Jimmy Page, but I shall never get over my intense dislike for that poofy haired idiot that sings for them.

I dont care about that sort of things, i just like their music!

[Las Naranjas]

Oi, dickheads!


Everyone head over to http://www.rubixcuba.com and download teh latest single.

Feedback has been requested, so if you hate it, with reason, express it and I will hand it on to the artists.

Apparently an autotuned version is going up today sometime.

Go Go Go!

[Al_Ninio]

New Rubix Cuba single???
*Downloads*

[Timosity]

Rubix Cuba - Personally I don't go for the singing style, to "girly pop" for me. but what ever tickles your twat.

It could be a little tighter, I don't know how experienced the musicians are.
Just sharper on all the transitions, That seems to happen with experience playing together.

Needs more syncapation, the intruments seem to play together too much and pause in the same spots, maybe a few more drum phylls somewhere

I like the guitar sound, the flute part is good too,

The horn section is a little boring, horn sections can usually be a real feature but not in this case.

I think they just need more experience and experiment a bit more.

highwaygal: you can download it on the link that Las gave, in the Latest News text where it says '"Wait Up" here'

If that is the single Las was stalking about

[Las Naranjas]

I might as well put on the record this is my least favourite Rubix Cuba song, in fact I trailed off when my brother first played it for me, and I also agree with everything else you say Timosity, and will pass it on.

The girly voice is my Brother, hence me nick naming him fudgie. His talking voice is deeper though. Thanks, and evryone else, criticism is accepted joyously.

--edit--
My brother just read your post Timosity. He just wants me to say that he agrees with most of what you say, and provides some excuses like "It's a demo that we just decided to release small scale" and "People who like my voice are girls, it's marketing to the female audience". It's this disturbing androngenous trend, how else to you explain Leo di Caprio.
He also says everyone in the band is dissapointed with the tightness. "We're tight live though!!!!" he says.

[2ma2]

It seems I have done this quite alot, but strangely enough, unlike Helm's, the list keeps changing every time I post.. tho' Helm's list is so god dam long noone would ever notice if something were replaced

Radiohead, REM, Talking Heads, Moloko, King Crimson, early Kent, Tool, Mr Bungle, Creeping Jesus, Genesis, Carl Orff, Pink Floyd, the Cure, early ELO, Pearl Jam, Masses from around 1200 to 1800, Tjechov, Björk, the Piano Soundtrack, some Mozart (mostly Requiem), Górecki, Soundtrack of our lives, Dire Straits (the 'Brothers in arms'-album) all the other music I listen to but forgot to include in the list.

Right now, I'm addicted to Sigur Rós! Agaetis byrjun is set to repeat over and over and over...

[Timosity]

Las, Yeah more girls will probably dig his voice, therefore attract more chicks to the venue, therefore more guys will come to see the band to try and pick up the chicks, so as a marketing ploy it probably works.

I'd be interested to hear more of their stuff before I judge too harshly, it's definately got some potential.

Also see if you recognise my new avatar, it's the Zumex Movil.

Edit:

The Arkoff Experiment

This is one of the more original bands you will hear, They are hard to describe so I pinched some text from their website. This is how they've been descibed.


"The Arkoff Experiment are a 9 piece Sydney group, Presenting for you a cocktail of Lounge-Garage-Surf-Exotica-Rockabilly-Swing and Electro Dub."

"A voyeuristic multimedia experience delving thru 40's Hep-Joints to the underground scene of 2001. The band combines an ensemble of video projections, a wide range of instruments and a vivid stage performance verging on the darker noir side of life."

"The Arkoff Experiment are a rare treat in a sea of lifeless musical cliches"

"a strange blend of swamp, soul, psychobilly and exotica.
Described as The Cramps meets James Brown meets Ed Wood."

go here They have some samples, pictures and videos
Very interesting too
http://www.arkoff.net/

[Las Naranjas]

You stole my movil!

It's the finest of my Zumex range.

Not that I really mind much about genres much though... I just think it's funny when people say "I hate that kind of music!" (or something to that effect) until they actually listen to it. I was like that once. Still is to a degree, I guess.

[remixor]

And I turd myself with laughter whenever I hear "I'm just a kid"

Fucking hell, that song makes me want to rip off my ears and stuff them down the lead singer's throat.  I don't listen to the radio or watch TV, so I would never even have heard it if my friend hadn't played a joke on me and said "Hey, download this song!  It's terrific!"  I've still not forgiven him.
