Nobody responded yet? Alright, I'll shoot. My music list is diverse in the sense that I love all the classics from the 60's such as Simon & Garfunkel, The Doors, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix. I love 70's and 80's rock. 90's was the best decade of music, but it's probably because I grew up with it. 2000's I started to get more into metal, such as Slayer, Sonata Arctica, Underoath, As I Lay Dying, Trivium, Protest The Hero, etc.

I don't know why I posted a short history of it, but that's my reply lol

Ill take a turn. First and foremost, Disturbed will always be the band that I return to. After that, I listen to 90s alternative. No genre will ever replace that for me. I constantly reminisce about the 90s and music was a big part of it. I like some of the last decade of music as well. Godsmack is pretty high up there as is Breaking Benjamin. Next would be older "weird" rock. I dont really care for the classics (Beatles, Zepplin, Doors, Floyd, Hendrix, etc) but more of the lesser mentioned stuff (Kansas, Styx, Rush, REO, Triumph, YES, the Who). Lastly when Im in a different mood, Ill listen to Celine Dion. Shes beautiful and so is her voice. I actually like a lot of female singers. Flyleaf, Evanescence, Halestorm, Otep, Arch Enemy, Cranberries, Kittie just to name a few. Women's voices just sound better (as long as its not that Mariah Carey/Beyonce type junk).

Metal, Hard Rock, and Classic Rock.

I listen to wide variety of it. Pretty much any of it from the late 60s to today is game. The only exceptions really being that I don't like Death Metal (Cannibal Corpse, Six Feet Under, etc.; but I do like other hardcore styles like Thrash and Black Metal) and I don't like the rap-metal hybrid stuff (Korn, Limp Bizkit, Rage Against the Machine, etc.).

A large list of bands I enjoy:

-AC/DC
-A.F.I.
-Alice In Chains
-Amon Amarth
-Amorphis
-Blind Guardian
-Chevelle
-Children of Bodom
-Cinderella
-Dark Tranquility
-Demons & Wizards

-Iced Earth
-In Flames
-In This Moment
-Insomnium

-Alice In Chains
-Amon Amarth
-Disturbed
-In This Moment
-Megadeth
-Metallica
-Mudvayne

Nice call on these bands. I should have mentioned In this Moment as one of the female voices I like as well as Lacuna Coil. And "Rain when I die" from Alice in Chains was the song I would put on repeat every night before I went to sleep. Metallica has struggled a little with the loss of Newsted and the last CD they released but most of their releases before are amazing. I think the Black album is one of the best releases of all time.

The last album they put out (Death Magnetic) I thought was good. Not as good as their classic albums, granted, but MUCH better than St. Anger was before it. St. Anger sounded like it was recorded with a Fisher Price kids recorder and the song writing was terrible. Lars' drumming was the worst on it, sounded like his drum-kit was nothing more than a bunch of tin cans.

St Anger was the one I was thinking of. I had forgotten about Death Magnetic but it really didnt really spark any fires for me either.

I like Music. Just about anything other than country.  Country music today makes me want to jab a pencil in my ear. 

Metallica, Korn, and Avenged Sevenfold are my favorites. 

I like everything from the Beatles, The Doors, and The Rolling Stones to Disturbed, Stone Sour, and Deftones.  I've listened to a lot of Johnny Cash and Three 6 Mafia in the same night.  Show me the 90's rap and I'll show you a party!

And St. Anger gets a bad rap.  It wasn't the best Metallica album, but it was still a good album.  It's like coming in last at the Olympics.  You still made it to the Olympics.
