Hi peeps, Since there isn't a lot of Garbage fans in my corner of the world, I've always wondered what sort of people listen to 'em. (I.E. what sort of freaks are ya!) I listen to everything from Slayer to Beethoven, John Lee Hooker to The Crystal Method, Hans Zimmer to U2. Of all the types of music I listen to, Garbage is the one band I had difficulty putting a genre to, for the purposes of my MP3 player. I think that is part of their appeal to me, they're so unique (at least to my ears). In the end, I defined them as Psychedelic Rock! Since I listen to mainly Metal (HUGE Metallica fan) & Contemporary Classical, I'm curious to know what you guys are into. I know from reading posts here that Garbage appeal to a very diverse bunch of people, so I'm sure there could be LOADS of seriously diverse answers to this question! So, who are your 5 favorite artists? And how long have you been listening to Garbage? I'll answer 1st! 1. Metallica 2. Garbage 3. Joe Satriani 4. U2 5. Hans Zimmer Been listening since late '95

I also had a prob after 3 favs, it rotates a bit!

I stuck them in the "Goth" genre of my iPod with: Evanescence Marilyn Manson Rammstein Mankind Is Obsolete The Offspring
I know they're not like goth but it fits the type of musicc I like in that catagory...being that Rammstein is industrial and all, LOL
Basically I listen to my metal genre the most right now which includes: Slipknot Disturbed Static-X Dope Stone Sour (although softer than metal...)

I cant put them into order because I go through phazes and my mood for music is always changing but Garbage is on top.
Incubus The Datsuns Nine Inch Nails Yeah Yeah Yeahs Tool Nirvana Queens of The Stone Age Morningwood Marilyn Manson Smashing Pumpkins
Thats probably not all cos I forget, but I just realised if you mixed all the genres and styles of the bands you and I all listed, I think you would come somewhat close to Garbage.

yeah, I could put up a list like Endless did...but I think you asked for a "top 5". I just want music that's REAL....something that excites me, something I can relate too, something "artistic", without too much emphasis on 'showmanship'. Too many tattoos, piercings, eyeliner, etc gets in my way....I want to hear screaming, loud guitars, and sweat.

I made a list that is way incomplete but I tried to cover 'my likes' as in from one extreme to the other. Edit: I love the topic.

According to Last.fm, this is who my top 5 artists are: 1. Garbage 2. Goldfrapp 3. Yeah Yeah Yeahs 4. Shakira 5. Madonna (Although recently I've been listening to more and more of NIN, Depeche Mode & Red Hot Chili Peppers) I'd say I like to listen to whatever sounds good to me, doesn't matter the genre....although I tend to go for the more alternative, rock-ish stuff.

from what i noticed, garbage fans have the most interesting taste in music as a whole. we're a very hard fanbase to pin down to a single type... much like garbage is a hard band to pin down musically - & i freaking LOVE that!
as for me & my taste in music, my list is as follows:
1: garbage
2: kill hannah
3: 8mm
& from here on it's not so cut & dry with me so i can't list them.
