lol, no. I just thought tonight about how music can hit you at different times, which is why music is so great. I recently got into Steely Dan and they're really fucking good.

I know, I know. But yeah, it is definitely interesting how you listen to different musicians in different parts of your life and it's interesting how some remain with you and others go by the wayside and then you get really excited when you hear a song you used to like.

First cassette I really wanted was GnR. There music seemed unique to me at the time and it was an angsty time for me. My parents were fighting alot and eventually split. And I was like 13 so it was HS and all the stuff that kids go through.
Id say Nirvana and Alice and Chains were my favorite bands in HS. They were also pretty angsty.
Smashing Pumpkins were the softer more introspective band for me.

Sometimes music can bring you back to a time in your life, or evoke a memory. Its pretty cool. |

For the most part the musicians I first started liking were the Beatles, Elton John, Billy Joel, James Taylor, etc because it was what I remember my parents playing when I was growing up.
Beyond that I used to listen to a lot of Nas because I really like his flow and his style as a lyricist. To this day I consider him the best lyricist and enjoy listening to his music, but I have definitely expanded what I listen to.
Anger is easy. Linkin Park. Sure they are generic and popular but they get the job done. As far as love/ new relationships, Mariah Carey, some shit. I don't know KC and Jojo.

What was the first band or performer you liked? Why?
Don't remember. Probably Sucked.
What band/performed was most influential to you growing up?
Tool. Far and away the best rock band in the last 10 years.
Which band is good for anger?
Absolutley for a fact it is Korn. Not the new shit though. I remember when I got jumped in a parking lot my senior year I drove home I was blasting Korn and I don't think I have ever related to music on an emotion level as well as I did that night.
Did My Time and Here to Stay- Korn. Absolutely the greatest songs ever created for anger. Next time your extremely angry listen to both of those in a row.
Which for love/new relationships?
100 percent Van Morrison.
Van Morrison- I am In Heaven when you Smile.
