show me your "serious" side of music

Yeah, show me what bands who does not play grind/noise/death/whatever, that you listen to.
Me self, I am a huge fan of theese bands




(In order: The small faces, the rolling stones, the who, the smiths)
I dig alot of 60's pop/rock music and alot of brittish pop music and etc. The ol' drug abusing guys, way much cooler then the modern fag ass musicans.

My music taste is very wide... from grindcore to drum'n'bass and from classical music to synthpop.

Depeche Mode
Talk Talk
Beethoven
Vangelis
Buena Vista Social Club
Pendulum
The Sisters Of Mercy
Bomfunk MC's

ahaha My Chemical Romance would be a bit TOO shady !

well Black metal is included in what I mean.. i should have written it as "extreme music"..
so lets take it again for the upcoming writers in this thread: What kind of non-extreme music do you listen to?

I love psychedelic and proto-metal music from the 60s and 70s. I'd say it makes up the bulk of what I listen to nowadays. Some of my favorites are Amon Duul II, Comus, Iron Claw, and German Oak.

Also I have a soft spot for 90's noise rock. My favorite band of all time is Helmet. Pretty much any old trance syndicate or amrep bands.... unsane, hammerhead, cherubs, dirt, mutter, etc.

Yeah, I also love REAL and old psychedelic music like Grateful dead, the 13th floor elevators, The Doors, etc..
Just the perfect smoke music
I've been diggin it for my whole life.. my grandpha was a teenager during the mid 60's and he was a Mod and has show me and introduced me to this real music when I waso nly like 9-10 yrs old

My tastes range, hahaha.
Roy Orbison, CCR, Simon & Garfunkel, Lou Reed, The Doors, Pink Floyd, Iron Butterfly, Velvet Underground, Eazy-E, Public Enemy, NWA, Soundgarden, etc.
I'll listen to anything really as long as it's not country or pop.

Favorite stuff out of grind?
wu-tang clan
n.w.a.
johnny cash
B.I.G.

i love gore and noise, all the sick shit. but i was raised on mostly classic and psychedelic rock, prog rock, funk, disco, even far back as 40s and 50s music

a short list of my serious tastes:
Frank Zappa / The Mothers of Invention
Captain Beefheart
Primus / anything Les Claypool
Threebrain
Philip Glass
Cab Calloway
Emerson Lake & Palmer
Butthole Surfers
Black Sabbath (early)
Jimi Hendrix
Beatles

blah blah blah, too many to name

Fuck yeh he was !

Good idea for a thread.

I listen to all kinds of shit, but my main influences out side of grind are:


T MODEL FORD (and everything else on Fat Possum Records)
The blues guys were the first for everything!


BOOTSY COLLINS (Check out a project he had called "Zillitron" - so fuckin far ahead of his time)
You can't feel the groove if you gotta force the funk!


BORGORE (Dub step -- he is also a drummer for the death metal band Shabira)
There are better dub step guys, but he is pretty fuckin funny, and he raps. I learned a lot about drum programing and production listening to guys like this!!!!
