Anything classic rock for me. We have a great classic rock radio station here but when I feel like digging out the aux cord it's always Neil Young or Steely Dan.
I'm familiar with bassnectar from when i built the stereo in my last car. Fun stuff, but my stock stereo ain't gonna make it happen.I doubt many people have ever heard of the stuff I listen to in my TJ
Odesza
Velvetine
Bassnectar
Phutureprimitive
Tritonal
Seabound
VNV Nation
The xx
Assemblage 23 (very cool)
Then there’s
80’s
Old country
70’s
But I usually listen to the stuff up ^^^ in the TJ
Ok. I just looked up assemblage 23 and that is crazy. There's a lot of influence from early 80s depeche mode, some inxs, joy division, all that stuff i didn't learn to appreciate until the later 80s because at my high school rock was king, country second. We didn't hate the kids with the funny hair and makeup but i didn't appreciate their music until i went to college.I doubt many people have ever heard of the stuff I listen to in my TJ

Exactly!I just love most kinds of music. Especially when it's done hard
No problem. You're right that a lot of the influence came from Depeche Mode in my own listening experience. You're much better and detecting other influences. I didn't get into Depeche Mode until I was in college in the late 90's and I always loved the earlier stuff, but later began to like it all, including Gahan's darker stuff that followed. At any rate, you've given me some new paths to tread. Thanks for that.Ok. I just looked up assemblage 23 and that is crazy.

I get really excited when i can really see all the oldschool influences in newer music. Like the red hot chili peppers and the george clinton/funkadelic influence.
When i was a kid i made a crystal radio from a rado shack kit (dad was a science teacher.) I would listen to the reggae show on the local university radio station. Of course bob marley, but others like black uhuru, gregory Isaacs (night nurse is outstanding), burning spear, steel pulse, really good stuff. Then i learned my dad had roommates in college that were in a steel drum band. When i went to college ub40 became a more modern version of that. One thing i had forgotten until dubstep became a thing was that reggae radio show played some percentage of dub. No computers in the 60s and 70s, just sliders, knobs and reverb, but i feel like that's where dubstep came from.
Sorry for the long story, I just love most kinds of music. Especially when it's done hard like moussorgsky, Wagner, a7x, or it makes me feel the pain of the composer like nirvana, old depeche mode, or the outlaw country guys. I need more music back in my life.
Yes! Very loud if possible.Social Distortion, The Misfits, Rancid, Jonny Cash, Willie Nelson, The Rankins, Gordon Lightfoot, Stan Rogers, The Distillers, Tragically Hip, Motorhead, The Reverend Horton Heat, The Clash, Iggy Pop, Stevie Wonder, The Ramones, Monster Magnet, Billy Idol, The Dead Kennedys, Wylon Jennings, Cypress Hill, LL Cool J, , Slip Knot, Disturbed, Pink Floyd, and on and on and on............
I can and do listen to just about everything except my dog died, my wife left me, crying in my beer country music, but I do like some country.
Damn...I can't imagine it getting any better than that!a Patsy Cline meets Pin Up Girl style.
