I go through phases with my music like everyone. Amon Amarth, Destroyer 666, Slayer, Mastodon, Iron Maiden, Tool, Decapitated, Dark Throne, Immortal, Nile, Behemoth is my heavy end. But I also listen to Classical, Opera, 60's - 80's Rock and most recently Reggae which I never listened to before and really enjoying the roots of Ska and Punk. The only country I listen to is Johnny Cash, can't beat the man in black.
 
I am a pretty big Pete Doherty fan and have been listening to alot of Libertines and Baby Shambles lately. Anything bands along the brit rock genre that anybody can suggest? I am new to this scene so older stuff like the clash works too.

Similar to others, I figure my tastes are pretty diverse. I like jazz a lot--Thelonious Monk, Bill Evans, Modern Jazz Quartet, Ahmad Jamal, Horace Silver, Sarah Vaughn, Wes Montgomery, Django Reinhardt, Jimmy Smith, etc. etc.

I also love rock music from various periods, country/western, particularly "alt" country stuff like Gram Parsons, Steve Earle, and Uncle Tupelo, pop from the 80s (nostalgia is a damn powerful thing), lots of grunge (perhaps the most under-rated type of music around, IMO), orchestral-type music of various kinds, occasionally metal or punk rock/hardcore music, difficult to categorize stuff like Tom Waits, the Pixies, Gogol Bordello, and David Bowie, folk, even some rap! Not much of it, but I love the Beastie Boys and Run DMC stuff from the 80s. Modern "pop" country stuff like Trace Adkins and that crappy American Idol winner though? PASS!

My favorite band is the Police, probably followed by the Beatles.
 
i listen to these bands:
April March
The Arcade fire
Band of Horses
The bloody beetroot's
Bob Dylan
Bright eyes
Built to spill
Chuck berry
Crystal castles
Daft punk
David bowie
Elton john
Fever Ray
Interpol
Iron and wine
Judas priest
Justice
Lady Gaga
Led Zeppelin
MGMT
Modest Mouse
 
More than anything, I love early 70's FM radio. Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield and Issac Hayes are easy examples to point out, but most of what I've heard, I've never been able to learn who it was (I have a lot of homework to do). All I can really say is that Chicago, Philadelphia and Detroit made some of the best music ever in '69-'74. Old school, pre-disco R&B rules.

Besides that, the first six Black Sabbath albums are the best blues albums ever recorded (even if they're not well recorded). Robert Johnson, Leadbelly, Jelly Roll Morton, Django Reinhardt, Charles Mingus, Nina Simone, Billie Holliday, Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, Ella Fitzgerald, The Drifters, The Four Tops, The Beatles, The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Frank Zappa (from the Mothers onward), Sonic Youth, Jane's Addiction, Misfits, Crass, Pixies, The Pogues, Bauhaus, The Cure, Crash Worship, Slayer, Brujeria, Neurosis, old Metallica, Sinead O'Connor, Belly, Erykah Badu, Bjork, a lot of 80's pop, and late 90's female R&B (girls like Aaliyah, Brandy and Monica were hot stuff).

I despise Eminem and most modern rap, but good hip-hop is amazing. NWA, Wu Tang, Roots, De La Soul, Beastie Boys, and anything else that used it's brain.

Finally, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Gustav Mahler put all the rest to shame. I think they were the greatest inventors of music ever and music history owes them an incalculable debt. I also really like Rachmaninoff, Stravinsky and Debussy.
