Unique stuff. I have pretty varied tastes in music. I like Radiohead, Modest Mouse, Sigur Ros, Aphex Twin, Burial, and Origamibiro. Just to give you an example.
Death, Thrash, Black, Grindcore, Goregrind, Melodic, Tech, Progressive, Experimental, Brutal Death Metal, and or any combination of them. I also like Classic Rock, Techno, Hip Hop, I'm open to alot of stuff other than screamo, emo, "hardcore" rap, country, religious, etc.
Mostly CIassical now. I was on a Seattle Grunge binge for a while but am finding myself bored with modern "rock" music (rock, metal, etc, etc.).
I am absolutely obsessed with Beethoven. I cannot stop listening to Op. 125 "Choral," The Waldstein, Appassionata and Les Adieux. He is pretty much the epitome of "music" in general.
I don't confine myself to one genre of music, but my favorite bands and songs fall into the Alt Rock (real Alt Rock mind you) and ska categories.Jaks_Secret
What qualifies as real alt-rock? Like Nirvana / Smashing Pumpkins? Or like Neutral Milk Hotel / Pixies?
Lately, I've been listening to mostly trip hop and electronica, but I'll listen to anything. Genre really isn't important to me as long as I like how it sounds.

I wouldn't really consider either of those Alt Rock. The first group is more grunge, and the second group is more punk. I don't know, but I consider Alt Rock to be stuff like Radiohead, Modest Mouse (before the new album came out and it got all suckish), and Los Campesinos. I don't know, that's just my personal preference.

Radiohead and Modest Mouse are my two favorite bands. I've never heard of Los Campesinos. Are they similar?

They're hard to describe. They're definitely unique, and their music is a while lot more upbeat than Radiohead and some Modest Mouse. All I can really say is to check them out if you're interested and see if you like what you hear.

I looked up one of their songs. They're pretty good.

Yeah, I was on Wichita Record's youtube page and saw them, then got hooked. WichitaRecords has a lot of good bands (Bloc Party, The Dead '60s, Los Campesinos).
