I know some of you prefer shitty media players like Foobar, Winamp, or even Windows Media Player (What the fuck is wrong with you?) because ZOMG iTunes takes up a lot of RAM. Well, I happen to have 6GB worth.. so I can rape it for what it's worth. FYI, hardware is super cheap right now. Do yourself a favor and upgrade your system.
Anyway. When I am listening to music, very rarely do I actually roam my gigantic library. I usually just go to my playlists and pick one depending on what mood I'm in.
If you don't see a band that needs to be in there I either have it in my library somewhere but forgot to add it to the playlist, or I'm a huge dweeb that needs to get a hold of it. So if you have any suggestions on what I should add feel free.
BREWTUL
Just take a guess at what this is. Then take a guess how often I am in here. I'll give you a hint: All the time. This is obviously my brutal/slam death metal collection. Bands in said playlist include:
Abominable Putridity
Abysmal Torment
Awaiting The Autopsy
Being Killed
Cephalic Impurity
Cerebral Incubation
Devourment
Defeated Sanity
Gorevent
Gortuary
Gutteral Secrete
Human Mincer
Infinite Defilement
Kraanium
Pathology
Resurrected
Saprogenic
Tools Of Torture
Vomepotro
Wormed
T3ch R4p3
Ah yes. Technical death metal. Straight arousal from start to finish. Mind needs to be blown. If I say "What the fuck just happened?" then it was really good. I'm always the most excited for new releases from these bands.
Athiest
Augury
Beneath the Massacre
Decrepit Birth
Deeds of Flesh
The Faceless
Gorod
Necrophagist
Odius Mortem
Sleep Terror
Spawn of Possession
Visceral Bleeding
Yattering
Fuck Your Mother
The best of the best. If I am not in BREWTUL I am in here. At the moment it's basically my favorite bands in the whole wide world. I can literally sit through this entire playlist and never get bored.
Carcass
Fleshgod Apocalypse
Gorgasm
Hour of Penance
Inveracity
Kronos
Suffocation
Kvlt
So you may have noticed while lurking my library that I don't listen to much black metal. A couple of reasons for that. One, I am picky as fuck with this genre. Two, most of it sounds the same to me and is incredibly boring. I will say though, that I WANT to listen to more black metal.. it's just that no one has really shown me anything that has impressed me terribly. It's inevitable that you guys will throw some recommendations for me in this area so go for it. I guess if anything I like the more symphonic side if you need to know which direction to go with that. In any case, here is my current favorites.
1349
Dimmu Borgir
Dark Funeral
Emperor
Limbonic Art
Old Man's Child
Wolves in the Throne Room
SHRED
If you ever want to sweep me off my feet, all you need to do is play some kind of epic guitar solo. I love shredders. When I'm done blowing my money on tattoos I plan buying a decent guitar and teaching myself some sweet tunes. Out of all the instrumental stuff I dig, straight guitar shreddage is my favorite. The best of the best for me right now is Jason Becker. But in all honesty I fucking LOVE all of these guys I'm about to list.
Greg Howe
Jason Becker
Joe Satriani
John Petrucci
Marty Friedman
Michael Angelo Batio
Patrick Rondat
Paul Gilbert
Rusty Cooley
Shawn Lane
Steve Vai
Yngwie Malmsteen
Classy Classical
If you see any of these artists playing I'm probably reading, taking a nap or drooling over piano solos. This is probably the number one playlist that needs more additions. I have limited knowledge in this arena and would love to learn more about it.
I will say that my current favorite piano soloist for the past six months would have to be Ludovico Einaudi. I fell in love with Le Onde right away, and when I snatched Divenire I could not get over the track
Carl Off
Claude Debussy
Edvard Grieg
Frederic Chopin
Ludovico Einaudi
Ludwig van Beethoven
Michael Nyman
Modest Mussorgsky
Peter Broderick
Philip Glass
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
iPhone
Kind of self explanatory. I only have 8GB to spare here, so these are the artists I would like to call "The Chosen Ones". Lawlz. I have an FM transmitter in my car, and you can bet your ass I always have my music playing on it. I also whip this out at work when I have time.
I am constantly updating this, so listing artists here would be a waste of time because it will change by tomorrow. But to give you an idea I have a mix of everything in here. From Atmosphere to Entombed. From Coldplay to Incinerate. I have random songs that are a personal favorite when the rest of the album kind of sucks like Sinners Bleed's
lolwut
My fuck around playlist. Contrary to popular belief, I am usually sober when listening to this and most likely dancing around in my underwear to it. I legitimately enjoy these artists, so don't think I am above it.
Britney Spears
Ashlee Simpson
Kylie Minogue
Ladytron
Ashlee Simpson
Lindsay Lohan
Mashupsmashup
Any DJ who can overlay a trendy pop song to a siqq beat has my heart. Best to listen to when trying to get your party on, or playing World Of Warcraft.
Girl Talk
The Hood Internet
Super Mash Bros
Yeah Man \m/
The classics. Metal everyone needs to listen to before anything else. Just assume I am drunk and looking at porn while roaming here.
Black Sabbath
Bolt Thrower
Exodus
Iron Maiden
Judas Priest
Metallica
Megadeth
Slayer
Testament
Power Metullll
Awww. I am always feeling extra happy and cute when here. This could use more variety as well.

Vary rarely do I listen to punk. But when I do, this is what I get down to.
Black Flag
Fenix TX
Guttermouth

I put this on and then practice picking up pennies and telling my dad he's not the boss of me.
Bishop
Blacklisted
Colin of Arabia
Earth Crisis
Integrity
Kids Like Us
Palehorse
Pitboss 2000
Beatz
My fine selection of hip hop. Mostly underground stuff. When I'm just trying to kick it and relax or cruise around town I put this on. This needs more gangster additions like N.W.A and the like. Remind me what I'm forgetting, I know there is a lot.
