Mid 90's - Britpoppy things like Oasis, Supergrass and Mansun

Late 90's - Ska Punky things like NOFX, Less Than Jake, Pennywise and Mad Caddies

Early 00's - 80s Thrash-Metally things like Metal-lica, Megadeth and Slayer

Mid 00's - 80's synthpoppy and electro things like Human League and Ladytron mixed with 50's Rock n Roll things like Little Richard and Johhny Cash. Also cheesy pop in from all the decades.

Current - Dancey-Trancey things like Matt Darey, Armin Van Buuren, Deadmau5 along with breaksy-bassy things like Pendulum, Optical and Squarepusher. Also horrific electro-house and indie things like Justice, Klaxons and more Ladytron

Also reflects various 'scenes' I've been a part of ie:

Mid 90s - Trendy
Late 90s - punk DJ
Early 00s - Roadie and punk/metal DJ
Mid 00s - Goth/Burlesque scene and full on cheesy DJ
Now - Clubby scene on a part of my DJing and VJing. But I tend to indulge in a bit of everything when I can - still love punk bands and jumping around to ska, still love air guitaring like a lunatic, still love dressing up and dancing with attractive ladies in corsets and suspenders (them, not me!)

First stuff i remember popping in my tape player over and over again was Deep Purple and AC/DC. From there i went through the usual Metallicas and Iron Maidens and Megadeths to Motörhead (which is still one of my favourite bands of all time).

Then i heard about this mystical genre from beyond the seas called Hip Hop. I listened to that for some time (i still like old school hip hop and rap, like N.W.A., Run-D.M.C. and Public Enemy).

And then became the electronic music. It started with that crappy mainstream trance and techno, oh and let's not forget *shudder* eurodance *shudder*. Much later i started listening to hardcore and all of its subgenres. I also like industrial, noise and drum'n'bass pretty much. Electronic music is still to this day a type of music i haven't really dug into, but like a lot.

At nearly the same time as i was getting tired with mainstream electronic music, i was itroduced to death metal and grindcore, when my friend gave me Death's album Human, which is still my favorite album of all time. Now i have so extensive list of death metal and grindcore bands i love, that i'm only going to give you the cream of the crop: Bloodbath (swedish supergroup), Nile (goddamn, they are good!), The Berzerker (you can't hate electronic music if you like The Berzerker), Nasum (pretty much the best grindcore band ever) and (this should have been the first) Death, which is my favorite band ever.

So there.

Back in the day I was all about the Elvis
Then I got into ACDC, then the Ramones, then Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Metallica, Megadeth, etc.
It all went to hell from there. (metaphorically and literally, I guess.)
Now it's all metal, except slipknot-type-stuff and the crazy "rape your bleeding corpse with my axe" death-gore. (Read: cannibal corpse sucks)
I'm a huge fan of viking, folk, black, and stoner metal.
So I'd say my current favourite bands are:
Esniferum, Eluveitie, Satyricon, Early Man, and High On Fire

And Iron Maiden. No one will ever achieve their greatness.

When i was a kid. It was whatever my mom listened to, which was country. Which i must say has had a great impact on what I listen to today. Then i was listening to Country mixed with classic rock (the Eagles, The Travelling Wilburys, Elvis Presley, the Beatles...ect). From there, i discovered at the age of nine, what is still my favourite genre of music, Hard Rock. Starting with KISS then STYX (Saw them a few months ago, good show) then AC/DC. At age 10, I was confused, i went from Hard Rock to Disco, to whatever my sister was listening to (Boy Bands and the Spice Girls) then back to Hard Rock, then to Soft Rock, then country, then country rock, then to Heavy Metal (King Diamond). And it has been a mixture of that up until grade 9. When being a high school freshman, i met my greatest musical influence, a creepy dude with an endless collection of creepy music named Jessie Sieben. He was and still is my hero for getting kicked out of every school assembly by screaming "GOD IS DEAD" (i go to a catholic high school despite not being catholic). He introduced me to the Pixies, Smashing Pumpkins, Rodan, Soundgarden, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and other Alt/punk/grunge bands that I never heard of. In turn, i got him into videogames, so it was win/win.

Lately, ive been listening to Iron Maiden, every Hair band i can get my hands on, Def Leppard (STYX opened for them, and STYX put on a better show) TOOL, The Smashing Pumpkins, the Pixies, Pink Floyd and Tenacious D (a very dangerous amount of Tenacious D i might add).

So thats it.

Up until I was like, 16, I had no inkling of what music I like. Because I had no radio of my own, no cds, and my parents controlled the car radio(which was 50s/60s pop, which really didn't agree with me). Now I could've taken initiative and asked for some sort of music playing device for Christmas or something, but it never occurred to me because my whole life, I'd never experienced it. I never even knew it was worth experiencing. My brothers picked up a Boyz II Men and a Rembrandt CD, and Mariah Carey, and that was alright to me, I suppose, but I wasn't terribly into it, and it paled so much in comparison to things like video games that I continued thinking that music, especially modern music, wasn't anything worth my money. I was kind of in to classical from all the lessons they crammed into me in elementary school, I guess.

And then I heard all these bands in Tony awk's Pro Skater 1 and even more imporatntly THPS2. And it blew my mind. And then I got an alarm clock radio one Christmas out of nowhere. And I found a classic rock station. And it blew my mind. And then started to get an interst in music, music I liked, msuic outside my parents iron clad control over the radio(when you can't drive, you don't have much leverage over that radio). So I got a CD player the following Christmas, picked up the albums of bands I'd heard on the classic rock station or whatever video game with licensed music, and I finally developed my own taste.

Which, as it stands now, is punk rock and classic rock(including many of the bands already mentioned in this thread). Millencolin and The Ramones are probably my top bands, but I really enjoy They Might Be Giants for some reason. They don't quite fit in genre wise, but I like them.

I got into the Beastie Boys at the release of Ill Communication and still consider them my favorite artists. Got into Soundgarden and 311 and once I hit high school I pretty much listened to nothing but rap, mostly Three 6 Mafia. I still listen to a decent amount of rap today but I mainly listen to electronic as well as a lot of 80's pop/new wave.

I will listen to anything besides country.

I was in 6th grade when I first discovered music...back then it was all about Greenday, Smash Mouth, and Blink 182. After that I got into some classic rock through bands like Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath and Van Halen. From there, my first wave of metal obsession began and I took a liking to Iron Maiden, Motorhead, Slayer and Megadeth. When that ended, I discovered marijuanna and got into bands like The Beatles, The Doors, Pink Floyd and Jefferson Airplane. When I realized that marijuanna sucks, I got back into metal with bands like Venom, Exodus, and Heathen. From there, I grew a fondness for alternative, alt. metal and grunge so I was into bands like Smashing Pumpkins, Helmet, Dinosaur Jr. and stuff. After this phase, I got into metal once more with a favoring of Mercyful Fate, Kreator, and Death.

Then at the beggining of my junior year of high school I fell in love with my current music of choice...horror rock. So now I listen to alot of horror punk, psychobilly, surf rock, rockabilly and Doo Wop
