Favorite Bands/Artists/Songs/Etc.

[Voxxyn]

Just as with the original thread, you know what to do.

My favorite bands/artists are as follows, in no order except the first few:

Radiohead, Muse, Coldplay, U2, Travis, The Verve, The Mars Volta, Sufjan Stevens, Pixies, Interpol, Franz Ferdinand, The White Stripes, The Killers, The Stone Roses, Oasis, Blur, Stereophonics, Keane, Doves, Snow Patrol, Manic Street Preachers, Arctic Monkeys, Feeder, Suede, Starsailor, Echo & The Bunnymen, The Perishers, Kaiser Chiefs, Bloc Party, Beck, Hard-Fi, Editors, Modest Mouse, a-ha, Tears For Fears, Gary Numan, and Depeche Mode.

Many of these bands are British/UK-based rock, which seems to be the music I gravitate towards. Coldplay gets extra credit for being my personal gateway band, I heard "Speed of Sound" on the radio last summer, which led to me getting their new album, which led to me getting their other albums--and then decided to look up bands similar to them, thus directing me to most of the bands I just listed. Before that, I wasn't really into music, but it's now one of the most important things in my life.

That's not all I listen to, though. I love discovering new music, and am willing to listen to anything as long as it's not manufactured radio garbage.

As for you...?
