my facebook tells me I like beirut, camera obscura, army navy, morning benders, beach fossils, fleet foxes, weird dreams, the go! team, the knife, born ruffians, deerhunter, wild nothing, the love language, the black keys, childish gambino, the dodos, the smiths, andrew bird, vampire weekend, sufjan stevens, dr. dog, and the apples in stereo.

admittedly, I think the guy from say anything has a whiny-ass voice.
+1 for vampire weekend.

According to Last.fm, my most listened-to bands since 2004 are The Clash, Nine Inch Nails, Current 93, Motörhead, Johnny Cash, Bauhaus, The Pogues, Public Image Ltd., and Einstürzende Neubauten.

In the last three months, however, I have been listening primarily to Gang of Four, The Rolling Stones, Minutemen, X, The Sisters of Mercy, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Аркона, Public Image Ltd., Anthrax, The Gun Club, and Dzelzs Vilks.

Note that I am old and therefore you shouldn't be listening to *any* of these bands. ;P

I like newer, happier stuff. The Sounds, Sleigh Bells, Gorillaz (not too happy i guess), Ting Tings, Uffie, Shinichi Osawa, Autokratz, Justice. Fucked Up is pretty good. There's a band called Deathcrush but they only have 2 songs out and no single. I love Arcade Fire. Tiny Victories is new and good.

+a million for The Moldy Peaches.

Oh, shit - I usually listen to it on pandora or I put a bunch of stuff on my computer on shuffle. There's this one song that I love, and I can never remember the name of it. haha.

Let me check amazon and try to figure it out.

I really really like Scott Walker Sings Jacques Brel. While he didn't write the stuff, I just love that album. I think the song Jackie from that album is the one I was thinking of.

Ah yes, classic! He really made those songs his own,
If you want to check out albums, Scott 1 through 4 has a lot of that stuff. Scott 2 and 4 are my favourites. His later, more recent stuff is very different and dark, but pretty cool too. Also the documentary about him, 30th Century Man, is great. It's on TV every so often.

The documentary is what got me to check out his music. I never finished the doc. But I learned I really like his music.

Right now I'm listening to a lot of Jack Johnson (my two-year-old was watching Curious George twice a day while he was sick) or Disney tunes. Other than that, I'll throw in The Doors, Led Zeppelin, Dave Matthews, Enya, Beethoven, or Vivaldi while the kids are awake. While I'm working out, I'll throw in Avenged Sevenfold, Disturbed, Ozzy (with and without Black Sabbath), Nine Inch Nails, or Metallica (w/ Cliff).

I only listen to that song where the guy yells SAAAIIILLL. I didn't even listen to music until that came out. Your thread title sucks! It doesn't explain what the thread is about. SAIIIL!
