I like all kinds of genres, but only one band makes my day: Apollo 440. Considering they do everything from ambiet/classic over dance and rock to heavy metal and hiphop, with a bit of jazz in this song and some blues here and a lot of drum 'n' bass everywhere... can't see anything else wedging itself between me and the Liverpool trio.
If you think they're uncreative then you've only heard their singles. ;) I don't know who picks the singles, but it's a crap selection.
You might know them from their insanely popular evergreen "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Dub", or, if you're REALLY into 80s and know of Magazine/Devoto, you'll have heard of them.
English people: NME thinks they suck for a specific reason: Noko was part of "Luxuria" with Devoto (a punk rock icon), and obviously Devoto is important. Well. NME seems to find Noko was trying to be too important back then, and so now that he's Apollo440's guitarrist, they diss Apollo 440. Sad picture, sadder excuse.
Aside from that, I listen to Linkin Park (even if I realise they objectively aren't that good the music just GETS to me, people :D ), some Marilyn Manson if it's good, some Moby if it's good, some Anastasia, some Highland... some anything, really. Heck, I even like "OOOOHWEEEE!" or whatever the song is called. *laughs*
Hmm... I really don't like 100% of R&B in the charts and 50% of all hiphop in the charts. I have a personal grouch against Destiny's Child, so if you're a DC fan, bring it on ;)
I think that about covers it.
Oh, Oddworld music obviously beats everything. Or not :D
- TyA... or Neike Satana, highpriestess of the apollo apostels / the camden cult (yes, the cult is a big joke, you can calm down again)
Edit: Oh! OH! I know! They can perform live with two drummers! ... ... okay. I'm done now... I think. o_o
Edit2: And yes, Noko + Devoto are the same Noko + Devoto from my Noko + Devoto signature file.
