I haven't stumbled upon any music topic yet, so I thought I'll start one. Share some music you lads like to listen.
Let me start it, with some model example of sharing.
Band: ZAO
Genre: Metalcore (Christian influenced)
Name of The Song: 5 Year Winter
Why do I like it?: Because it's the only metalcore band with balls I know, groovy, brutal, passionate. Not like most of so-called metalcore bands, that should read some definitions of the genre they try to exploit before playing something that strays.

Genre: Metalcore (this one definitely Christian influenced)
Name of the song: Ravage Ritual
Why do I like it?:First of all. This is hell of a groove. It's brutal, and yet, containing that mind-fisting melody in background, no, foreground, eating your mind out. Vocals - sickly reverbed.
But the most important - these lyrics. I'm sure you won't understand from ear, find lyrics and take a look at them. It's about hypocrites in chrisitan community.

Genre: *cough* *cough*, Quoting from their site: "Fuck the genre, listen to the music". It's something between sludge, death-doom with nice dose of atmosphere.
Name of The Song(s): Bleed in Me Pt1 (and Pt2 as well)
(by the way, most of my ships are named after this band's songs)Why do I like it?:Because I thaw at mercy of sea currents. Awaiting the night - cause the day I couldn't bare.
This. Everything. Makes me. So shapeless. So... woeful. And yet, it's soothing my soul, makes me thaw. Makes me dance, makes me sing, yet, apathetic, Beckettishly motionless.
Their first album is called "Anaesthetic Inhalation Ritual". Many say, that "Ritual" is the key word here. I disagree. It's definitely "Anaesthetic". Go ahead and experience for yourself.

Genre: Doom metal
Name of the song: The Wreckage Of My Flesh
Why do I like it?:Perfectly describes what how I feel recently.
Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmjL3eoQF0kBand: Actually, it's no band. It's a piece of soundtrack from my very favourite CRPG, Arcanum Of Steamworks And Magick Obscura, composed by, I believe, Ben Houghes.
Genre: Classical as fuck
Name of the song: The Demise Of Zephyr
(This one is the reason, why I laugh my ass off seeing enemy ship called Zephyr)Why do I like it?:As all the Arcanum's OST - fits perfectly to situation, and yet - it's a great piece of art as an independent... song, let's say.
