I just wanted to know what everyone listens to besides NEW ORDER.

I personally listen to U2, DM, JD,The Cars,Eco and the bunnymen, Ocean Blue, Oingo Boingo and every RETRO 80's song, Trance of any kind.

Thanks for your input everyone! Larry larryboos.com

Depeche Mode are my favourite band, followed closely by the Order and then Joy Division, The Smiths, Interpol and Idlewild. Don't listen to that much variation in music but if you want to suggest some then be my guest.

i'm very eclectic in my musical tastes which span from s club 7 to disturbed, my personal favourites being placebo, the manic street preachers and radiohead. however, i have absolutely no liking for perpetrators of r n b or uk garage, or, for that matter, 'artists' such as the white stripes and avril lavigne. eurgh.

Smashing Pumpkins is my favorite band, aside from the fact I've liked them the longest. Billy Corgan writes good lyrics and, in the first 2 albums, did some excellent guitar solos, and Jimmy Chamberlin is probably the best drummer from the '90s, in my opinion. After, New Order is tied with the Cure. Then, I like PSB and early Metallica, particularly Masters of Puppets. At various points, I've liked Nirvana and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, but both are just too bland and only have a few decent, distinguishable songs.

Depeche Mode. Probably my favourite band actually, but that depends on the mood really. A really close call between DM & NO.

As for music taste, I think 'varied' is the best description. Anything in my collection from Metallica to Hans Zimmer, Jean-Michel Jarre to Stone Roses, U96 to Deep Forest. Amongst others!

The Clash, Mode, Ben Harper, Morcheeba, Asian Dub Foundation etc...

uk garage, what is that exactly? i'm assuming its not like the garage revival here, with bands that have a "sloppy, rock garage-style" sound, ie: the strokes. blech.

Funny you should ask that. To aging punks of my generation, garage music was underground independent guitar music that had no exposure, no decent gear, no hope but was great stuff. These days, the name "garage" in the UK has become associated with the post-MTV absolute bollocks soft shite black wailing music that most other countries have seen off. The cheeky fuckers also call it R&B over here ! My arse it's R&B.

US "garage" music is ok. UK "garage" music is shite.

Bought Flowers by Echo & the Bunnymen for 2 euro recently. They had a sell out on NO CD's as well (9 euro). Hey, I go for J.S.Bach for the coming weekend . A group of DJ's in my country have rearranged the mattheus passion. Lot of electronics involved I guess :skeptic:
