Boo Boo: Wow, this guy has the best taste in music ever. A pure musical genius, did you know he has a Ph.D in musicology? It's true. if he likes something, it's objectively proven to be good.
Jackhammer: This guy seems to find merit in just about every kind of genre, one of our most openminded members, a guy you can actually count on checking out what you recommend to him. And looking through this guy's Last FM I just have to say, holy sh*t, talk about a closet proggie, he likes a lot great punk and post punk too. I guess he's the REAL Dr. Prunk.
Urban Hatemonger: Though I happen to like about 80% of all the music he hates, I'd be hard pressed not to check out the stuff he recommends. I admit I can't stomach all the britpop he's into (Pulp, bleh) but he did get me into Primal Scream, Stereolab, Blur and Super Furry Animals so I'm eternally grateful for that.
Sleepy Jack: Aside from The Beatles and Radiohead, our tastes have absolutely nothing in common. I don't get the big deal over indie folk, to me it's the most sedated music imaginable, it's like the equalvilent of watching a movie that consists of nothing but bunnies sleeping, it's music were pretty much nothing ever happens. What's this guy problem with music that's heavy and fun? I don't know anyone else that is so passionate about their hatred of rock n roll.
Comus: Granted we like a lot of the same 70s prog, but beyond that, I don't care for his taste very much. And even on the prog side of things, he tends to be dead wrong, I certainly dislike his attitude when regarding his tastes, apparrently I know nothing about prog and he knows everything. His attitude (and appearance for that matter) is much like an elitist classic rock fan, his Radiohead rants are almost like he's parodying that specific kind of person, but then I remember that's how he actually is.
Lucifer Sam: I like some of the stuff he likes, bloody despise other stuff he listens to, I like Captain Beefheart, but number one artist? I always have a serious problem getting along with avant garde fans. Even though I can't make a category for this guy, I know at least a dozen people who have the EXACT same taste as he does. They're the dadaists of the music world. Keep your upside down urinal to yourself, I'm not interested.
I find him overly closedminded in some respects, which makes it ever impossible to have a music discussion with him. I like to call him Mr. Wrong.
Seltzer: Excellent taste. He's not just a proggie, he realises theres more to "progressive" rock music than just rock. He seems to like just about everything. He's gotten me interested in XTC.
Right Track: Likes a lot of good stuff, quite similar to Urban's taste in many respects, though some of it seems to be flavor of the month stuff. Amy Winehouse? Really?
I see he has a soft spot for Motown. Gotta love that.
Toretorden: Now this guy I can really talk music with. It's almost like talking to my dad (no offense tore), a genuine classic rocker he is. But he's a smart and friendly guy, breaking away from the usual stereotype of someone who likes Boston. He knows his prog too.
Dac: God DAMN this guy loves Radiohead. He's an indie kid, but tends to only like the good stuff. So he's cool.
Antonio: I didn't really like that Clutch song off of this month's compilation so I don't know what his fixation with them is all about. But anyone who has the balls to admit they like SOAD in this day and age has my full support. And I gotta stick up for the Zepheads.
Pobody's Nerfect: I can't say, half of the bands on his LastFM I have never even heard of. But Devin Townshend and Massive Attack on the same playlist? That's mighty interesting.
Bulldog: Elvis Costello and Pogues aside, not as much of a hardcore anglophile as I expected. Overall likes some interesting stuff.
Sweet Nothing: Likes some good stuff, but he also hates a lot of my music and loves some of the more unbearable indie bands. Kinda like Ethan number 2.
Fasho: Now this is a real indie kid, it's not bad taste, just not
my taste.
Kfreek: I like his taste a lot. You gotta have great sympathy for a guy whose playlist consists entirely of every band indie kids hate with a passion.
Loose Lips: He wins the most music I've never goddamn heard of award, without a doubt.
Adidass: Should be a Spin magazine editor. Good god.
And so many of his bands have over 1000 listens. I don't know how that's even possible. A serious music lover, regardless of what I think of his tastes.
333: Of all the girls on MB, I connect with her tastes the most. A girl that likes Pink Floyd, Frank Zappa, Porcupine Tree, The Mars Volta AND Dead Kennedys? Argh. I can't take it anymore. I MUST HAVE YOU!
Captain Caveman: In all honesty, I think he has without a doubt the worst taste in music I've ever seen. An endless assault on the ears that could have only been concieved by the dark lord Satan himself.
