What Bands/Genre Are You Into?

I'm sure this isn't all that original, and it's been done before, but I'm new here. So here we go... time to talk about yourselves. What genre or bands are you into?

Me, I like all types of rock. My fav bands are AC/DC, Metallica, Slayer, Rob Zombie, The Germs, Van Halen, Fear, The Offspring, White Zombie and many many more. How about you?

I have really diverse tastes. Pop, goth, death rock, indie, crazy Harry Potter bands, rock, etc. Here are some bands/artists that I listen to pretty often:

Bella Morte (trance goth)
AFI (each album is different. Older stuff classic punk, modern stuff more of a pop/rock that is still awesome.)
Ayumi Hamasaki (Japanese pop)
Britney Spears (great pop music to dance to )
The Beatles (classic rock--fantastic)
Evanescence (older stuff quite similar to gothic rock, new stuff pop/rock)
Garbage (alternative rock)
Bright Eyes (indie/alternative)
Mirah (indie/alternative)
Rasputina (absolutely AMAZING cello gothic rock)
The Unicorns (strange indie pop)
Tatu (Russian pop)
TSOL (hardcore punk)
Blonde Redhead (catchy indie pop/alternative rock with Icelandic vocals)
Belle and Sebastian (mostly boring indie pop/rock/folk but some standout tracks)
Cat Power (beautiful indie folk/rock with amazing vocals)
Christian Death (grungy, vulgar death rock/goth..very entertaining)

I have a lot more bands that I enjoy but these are the most played bands on my ipod right now

That he does... so does Andres Segovia... but I don't listen to his music all that much.
