Know a lot about popular music? I have a project for you.
« on: April 20, 2006, 04:27:42 PM »
Somehow interpolate my tastes from these albums and suggest some more. Then provide me with a short description of my musical tastes.

I'm tired of people asking me what kind of music I listen to, and having no way to predict what I might like. Usually I tell someone that I like a band, then they let my borrow a CD and I hate it. Or vice versa. So if you could maybe find some coherence in the following mishmash off my favorite CDs, it might streamline the process.

It's very rare that I like an entire CD. But
I consider the following albums perfect:

Interpol: Turn on the Bright Lights
Radiohead: OK computer
Hot Water Music: Fuel for the Hate Game
Neutral Milk Hotel: In the Aeroplane over the Sea
Opeth: Blackwater Park
My Bloody Valentine: Loveless
The Flaming Lips: Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
Vivaldi: Four seasons concerto
Pink Floyd: DSOTM
Maybe a rare occurence, but then you only have to get murdered once to ruin your whole day.

Vivaldi: Four seasons concerto
If you like Vivaldi, you will like techno.  Wait a minute, everybody likes the Four Seasons.  Oh well, I think it sounds like techno.

You're pedestrian ecclectic.

So am I.

The only things I do NOT, under any circumstances, listen to are hip hop and rap.
