I tend to prefer Pop rock, I have no preference in who the artist is. just as long as the song is hot and the beat is fast. ;)

Great choice Melusine! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

I've just recently got in to this band and there fantastic Cristina Scabbia has an amazing voice, the best in music(apart from maybe Maynard James Keenan)! I like a few others you mentioned as well although too many to mention, although I must admit I don't know the first thing about classical music...

Naughty Girls
Tatu

:D

Linkin Park
Ill Nino
Chalice of Oblivion (band of someone in my class, site)

some other bands i've been listening to last months (not very often though):
Nightwish
After Forever
Evanescence (looks like a very cool band to me, might buy their CD)
Iron Maiden and slayer (favorite songs in GTA Vice City and Tony Hawk 4)
Goldfinger
Floggin Molley
System of a Down

Deftones. I love Deftones.
And... Tool, System of a Down, Queens of the Stone Age, Dark Tranquility, Slipknot, Turbonegro (norwegian band, but quite known... toured US with Queens of the Stone Age)... lots'a other stuff as well.

I'm into Nas the rapper atm. Particularly Get Down, Made you look and I can.
Musically right across the boards from rap to classical.

Hard Core hip-hop all the way. As if you lot didn't know [img]smile.gif[/img]

Charlie - yeah I got that album too - it's pretty good. If you like Nas's sort of of more musical hip-hop you should check out Coolio's "My Soul" album - it is pretty good rap with some nice music.

The last 5 cd's I've listened to:
Johnny Lang "Smokin'"
Deep Purple "The Very Best of Deep Purple"
Derek and the Dominos "Layla"
Shawn Colvin "a few small repairs"
Jimi Hendrix "Band of Gypsys"

and to cement my image of mental instability, I just loaded:
Poco "Poco"
Mothers of Invention "Freak Out"

I'm into all types of rock and roll music, heavy metal, alternative, classic, little bit of the old and the new. Not such a big fan of country or rap music though.
