Ancient thread is ancient...and yet still relevant.
Anyway, Prog. Rock. Lots of it. To name a few bands, The Beatles, Rush, Yes, Genesis (Gabriel era is better by far, though Collins era is okay every now and then, but mostly fuck him), Pink Floyd (Though I'm probably the only person who thinks Syd Barrett is hideously overrated. His tribute song was better than anything the man himself had done.), Dream Theater (Mostly Images and Words),...
Outside of that, mostly just random stuff of all genres. To drop a few names, Tally Hall (They're lots of fun, though "Two Wuv" sucks), Sting (His music gets a bit anvilicious at times, but the guy's got talent), Gorillaz (their non-rap stuff, mostly), sometimes Bjork (I used to hate her, but she's grown on me), most classical pieces (There's very few pieces I can name, but I love the genre as a whole), Michael Jackson, and random video game remixes.
As of now I'm absolutely hooked to The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway by Genesis. If I knew a damn thing about Flash, I would absolutely love to do an animated interpretation of some of the songs, a la "The Wall". But I don't, so I'll have to stick to doodles and my imagination...*sigh*
I'm honestly too scared to post most of my favorite songs in the "Rate The Song" thread or even really talk about them much here, because I'm a lot like Furret in that my music means a lot to me and is almost an extension of who I am, and I know that Prog. Rock is a very hated genre. To be honest, the really REALLY long, "wanky" songs don't feel that long to me if they're well done. This is one of the reasons I can't stand a lot of Dream Theater's music, because they absolutely suck at this. But things like Yes's "Close to the Edge" or Genesis's "Supper's Ready"....fuck yes.
