Music that defines you....

[The Defibrillator]

Ya don't need to post every band that you like, but just the bands who have made you who you are, and are responsible for the music you listen to now. Your influences and most important bands. the music that defines who you are.

for me, Incubus, The Aquabats, and the Hippos. Kind of a broad range of music, but the Hippos were the ones who got me into ska, the Aquabats totally changed my view on music, (listen to em, you'll understand, lol). Incubus is just awesome, I guess.

so that's basically who I am. Who are you?

EDIT: I totally forgot to of my most favorite bands, System of a Down, and Linkin Park. Any other hardcore SoaD fans here?

[GK Punk]

Smashing Pumpkins, mixed with Alice in Chains, a little Nirvana, a touch of Pearl Jam, a Drop of Juliana Hatfield, and Some GNR.

Mix it well with Nine Inch Nails, and Drink it down with a big glass of THe Cure.

[Mars-Chan]

Let's see....P!nk, (that girl ROCKS!) the Hippos, (once upon a time I was a kid...), Blink 182, Smashing Pumpkins, and *coughs* Jimmy Buffett *cough*.

That tell ya enough? :lol:

[Bowser_Koopa]

around the year 2001 i used to listen to daft punk a lot, i love techno, i used to listen techno, soft rock, and rock/pop, then i got into linkin' park in december 2001/early 2002, in mid 2002 i started with avril lavigne, but i didn't like the lyrics too much, then i started playing ddr, and now its all ddr music, most of the songs are techno/dance, so i love it, there are some rock and guitar beats, but not too many

[GK Punk]

Man there were so many albums that were important to my life, that little mix I said above, would never even begin to cover it -_-

[JameO]

Sum 41! Gob, NOFX, Green Day,Nirvana a bit, Good Charlotte and many more punk rock or rock bands. Mostly because they have so much meaning and Sum 41 is big for that for me like songs "still waiting" and "machine gun". And of course as of now I started listening to some 80's music! Great stuff. Super Freak, You spin me Right ROund, Video Killed The Radio Star. All that 80's goodn ess! and of course MJ! (Michael Jackson!)

[Mars-Chan]

and of course MJ! (Michael Jackson!)
WHOOT! ANOTHER JACKSON FAN!!! YEE!!!!!!!!! :D

[Bowser_Koopa]

and i'm anti-michael jackson :roll:

[Kid Icarus]

Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Jesus Lizard, Mudhoney, Green Day, Radiohead, Breeders, Sonic Youth. Just weird-trippy-strange-"what the hell was that" kinda bands.

[That Matt Guy]

Grandpa Jones and Johnny Rebel.

By hardcore, I mean music that'll pump my adrenaline. But when I'm in my bedroom, I like to relax by listening to Shenmue music.

[Leo656]

Guns N Roses by far. Anyone who thinks the Appetite For Destruction album can only be applied to L.A. never lived in Central Jersey.

Aside from them, Nirvana, Offspring, Metallica, Gameface and the Misfits.

[Billy the Kid]

Huey Lewis and the News blended a great sound of 80's Rock with 50's and 60's Rock and Blues Music. Still my favorite band. Also love Buddy Holly and the Crickets - great music that has influenced modern rock, pop, and country music.

Today I listen mostly to modern country, 80's rock, classical and military march music.

Of course

[Anarchistguy]

What's DDR?

[Voltron]

Dance Dance Revolution.

Its a video game where you choose a song, and then dance to it. You dance to arrows that appear on the screen placing your foot on the corresponding area of the pad at the appropriate time. The game monitors how well you are able to follow the arrows. It's quite fun if you ever give it a try.

[JameO]

What's DDR?

Dance Dance Revolution....basically a game where you do some crazy dancing fast. WIth a pad and everything to dance. Maybe ask the people that play it they might be able to tell you better than I can.

[Cascadia]

I guess I am outcast with my music..country music, oldies, classical, new age, and Jimmy Buffet

[GK Punk]

Rancid(but becoming TOO popular...)

I remember the last time they were popular.
God bless the early 90's

I've always wanted to try DDR or a game like that. Arcade or whatever it would be cool and interesting.

I've tried, but my knees are too bad. Curse Jr High Sports Injuries.

[SkaterMike]

Yay! Someone else with good taste! :wink: :)

[heretic888]

The band that has inspired/influenced me most is limpbizkit.

Still, I don't know if I could say that it "defines" me. I am what I am.

[coryroo24]

Beastie Boys all the way.
