too much jazz / classical?
OK Griff,
CHeck out this german Hardcore Band:
Rykers
They play some real heavy stuff.
Now...... let me see......
you should also try THUMB, an eccelent german alternative band, their early self-titled album has some real fresh tracks on it, reminds me of early Limp Bizkit, but with a more positive vibe. Their second album, EXPOSURE is a little smoother and darker, and some songs sound a bit like the actual NUMetal hype, but they did that sound about two or three years before that started.
Check out those two, you might really like them.

Whoooops Griff,
didn't read your reply about the lost prophets.
I personally don't care too much about them (except for that particular song and the skits) , but I must admit that I didn't have the patience to listen it all through. But I will check out the new album.
PS: btw, you started this thread by asking what kind of music and what bands other DIYers listen to. I don't mind discussing only about alt/ crossover/ grunge whatever, but if you really want to discuss only on that genres, you should start a new thread.
Besides from that, I would get bored with only talking about these genres.
I think it's way more exciting to have a thread in that so many people with different likes / dislikes post. 🙂

Re: "classic/classical"
Thanks for the above. I agree with you that every country/music genre have their own classical music. But in my opinion 20 or 30 year old music is not classical music. This is just my opinion 😎

Re: J.S.Bach
Thanks, fine.
Finnish is fine for me, but my mother tongue is actually Swedish, or should I say Ostrobothnian (my grandparents are Finnish speaking). You know us Ostrobothnians 😉
I'll go and look in the introductions forum.

................................
I realize that the above list couldn't ever really test my system
and that such 'flash-in-the-pan' musicians will probably disappear in the next year but it works for me. I own over 500 CDs, more than three times as many albums and now a small collection of SACDs. I listen to what I like but I resent it when someone wants to show me 'good music'. Frankly, I've heard most of the bands griff mentioned and with the exception of Snoop Dogg, I've been underwhelmed by them. Griff's implication is that we should get out more and hear his music. The truth is, Ive been around the block a few times, I've heard the music he recommends, I've given it a 'Thumbs-down' So in spite of the classical selections I mentioned, the other selections prove that The Tubes were right when they sang "i was a punk before you were a punk...
Or maybe I should quote The Cramps, 'You ain't no punk you punk, you wanna talk about the real junk??'

oldschool,
You must indeed belong to the old school, cause I found more artists I listen to in your list than in any other member's. Just a reminder of a part of my list from the beginning of the thread😉 :
"When the word punk comes out it's usually bands like: Clash, Damned, Ramones, Stranglers, UK Subs, Vibrators, Sham 69, Angelic Upstarts, Lurkers, Saints, Adverts, Buzzcocks, 999, Exploited, Subhumans, Specials, Killing Joke, Siouxsie, Cockney Rejects, Discharge.
Finding out Dead Kennedys was probably turning point and then I started listening to Fall, Bauhaus, Cramps, Talking Heads, Birthday Party, Nick Cave, Joy Division, Bollock Brothers, PIL.
I had a short affair with Pavement, Ride, Smashing Pumpkins, Crankberries, Soundgarden, Nirvana and alike but soon found them boring. So I turned to Ministry, Revolting *****, Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, New York Dolls. At that time I was also deep into Current 93, Legendary Pink Dots, Split Second, Muslimgauze, Fad Gadget, New Model Army, Delerium and Front Line Assembly.
End of 90's belonged to Front 242, Klinik, Laibach, Project Pitchfork, Sleep Chamber, Einstrzende Neubauten, KMFDM, X-Marks the Pedwalk.
Recently I'm listening to Apoptygma Berzerk from Norway (album "7" is my all time favourite), VNV Nation, Cobalt 60, Wolfsheim (highly recommended), C-Tech, Wumpscut, Dust of Basement, Inscape (more and more of that type music comes from Germany nowadays, I even got used to whole albums in German), Die Form, Assemblage 23, Funkergot, Covenant (not bad for Swedish band), Cruxshadows."

Listen to "If You're Gonna be Dumb" by Roger Alan Wade. It's on the Jackass - The Movie soundtrack, and ever since I went to see the movie I've loved that song, I slap that sucker on repeat and can let it go forever, although it's country and I hardly ever listen to country I still love it. Just thought I'd share that bit with y'all.
talk radio
Does talk radio with some mixed in music on internet count as listening ? dutch radio
At home its a nice mix of european and american old, new and my
favorite movie albums, I love those sound tracks.
BTW. I love my electrostats and will start the Aleph-X in a day or two.
