ahem. I suspect it'd better be the short version....

I have a near permanent soundtrack, mostly goth, punk, older indie, alternative with some metal thrown in....

A few bands/artists I am listening to at the moment:

Joy Division
Mortiis ('The Smell of Rain' is brilliant)
Tool
The Cure
The Mars Volta
Kerbdog
The Smiths
Devo
Butthole Surfers
The Sisters of Mercy
My Bloody Valentine
Placebo
Scarling
Killing Miranda

ok, that'll do for now.... :lol:

I see a few of you are also Rage Against the Machine fans. My favorite album of theirs is Evil Empire. It's very political, and it covers the dark side of the American empire: the legacy of slavery, crime and poverty, drug addiction and alcoholism, greed and moral hypocrisy, and the rightward lurch of U.S. politics.

I have that song.

The lyrics are very sad indeed.

The production is annoying though. During the whole song, except for the chorus, the vocals are on the right channel, and the music on the left channel.

A good many Beatles songs where recorded that way, partly because stereo sound was just coming into it's own in the 60's, and that was one way to make sure it was noticed.

However, for somebody that is very sensitive to stuff like that, it can be grating. To me, it doesn't overshadow the great music.

I have a very vaired collection. Mainly oriented towards rock, from the 50's to the present. However, I also have a lot of country, hip-hop, classical, techno, etc.

The discs I burn reflect this, as I go from Garth Brooks to Marilyn Manson to Ludacris to Bach from track to track.

About the only thing I don't tend to care for is MTV style teenie-pop, and thats mainly because the music is meaningless and completely faked.

One more thing. Right now I have been listening to a lot of Linkin Park. Normally I'm not a huge fan of angst/whiny rock, but both "numb" and "faint" resonate very strongly with me.

Numb lyrics-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

[Chorus]
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Can anyone guess why that hits a chord? I've spent my life trying to live up to everybody else's expectations, and am trying very strongly to come to terms with myself.
