Anything that has no lyrics, mainly Techno and Electronica, which  is gotten from random friends with say, Daft Punk, or Videogame music, which I get from Galbadia Hotel. I also like Adam Sandler and Weird Al Yankovic.

I listen to lots of everything.  Lately, mostly game soundtracks for some reason.  Usually, a lot of metal, and a lot of obscure poppy rock stuff nobody's ever heard of.  And lots and lots of jazz.  Real jazz, that is, not that shitty garbage they try to pass off as jazz these days.   Dave Brubeck, Stan Getz, Oscar Peterson, Cal Tjader, Monk, Coltrane, Parker, Blakey, Cannonball Adderly, etc.

It's the most favorite instrument of all the physicists I know. ;)

I mostly listen to (German) Indierock. And other Rockstuff like Madrugada o the Eels.

Some of my favorites I've been listening to recently:
Hmm.. most of this stuff influenced the Aquaria music in different and subtle ways I think.

Nightwish
The Eels
The Talking Heads (David Byrne)
Tegan&Sara
Ladytron
Meatloaf
Loreena McKennitt
Paul Simon - Graceland
Ulrich Schnauss

and... pretty much all game music ever written. :D

Some youtube links:
Bat Out of Hell
Nightwish - Nemo
Nightwish - Ghost Love Score Live

Oh also:
Onmyoza

I dig anything from The Raconteurs rock and roll like alternative stuff till The Legion Of Doom metal stuff. Nightwish, yeah, me likes! Definately! :)
Bands like Nickelback are awesome too, but a bit softer off course. ;)

Just keep country away from me.  Keep it to thyself, please.

I've actually been listening a lot to Postal Service and Death Cab and Decemberists and the soundtrack to WoW: Burning Crusade.

I'm an indie kid of sorts, but I can occasionally go from White Stripes to Gnarles Barkley to Linkin Park to Cake to Jack Johnson to Smashing Pumpkins to Beck to Minus the Bear to Yeah Yeah Yeah's to Bloc Party to whatever else.

One game that's gotten myself into more music is Guitar Hero II.  Huzzah for War Pigs by Black Sabbath!

Yeah, Madrugada has some awesome songs. I usually don't like their ballads, but I do like songs like "Life In The City", really good band!

Hmmm, I like certain songs from all sorts of genres. I think I like music from games and anime best though. Techno can be pretty good.
One song I really like was in a catagory called "melodic speed metal"  :o

Dragonforce?

Herman Li is a god among Chinese with hair longer than three feet.  I still prefer Through Fire and Flames, though that video is amazing.  XD

I listen to...well, mostly anything.  Galbadia Hotel is my illegitimate lover, but...I'd probably say classic rock is big on my list.
