So in the spirit of this thread, let's make fun of each other by stereotyping them based on what music they listen to.

First! Go to your last.fm or whatever you use and post your top (at least) five songs. You can certainly add more. We will stereotype you based on your taste.

Rule! Don't post if you'll get offended that someone is teasing you, and don't cheat!

Here's an example!

1    Acid Bath – Venus Blue    152
2    Current 93 – A Song for Douglas After He's Dead 136
3    Ancient Rites – (Ode to Ancient) Europa 135
4    3 Inches of Blood – Deadly Sinners 132
5    Immortal – Grim and Frostbitten Kingdoms 128
6    Sol Invictus – Kneel to the Cross 125
7    ewigkeit – Strange Volk [Edit]    122
8    King Diamond – The Trees Have Eyes 118
8    My Dying Bride – Sear Me MCMXC III 118
10    Waylander – Sunrise 115

I don't know any of those bands, but going by the names you're a skinny kid in a black t-shirt with incomprehensible lettering who gets moist over 16 minute guitar solos and songs about your D&D character, who is a dwarf who drinks alot.

Here are mine, to start us off
1 Okkervil River – The Velocity of Saul at the Time of His Conversion 85
2 Totally Micheal – ShakeYour Booty or Die 55
3 Beulah – If We Can Land a Man on the Moon, Surely I Can Win Your Heart 45
4 Neutral Milk Hotel – Holland, 1945 42
5 Animal Collective – Who Could Win a Rabbit full track 39
6 Danielson Famile – Good News For The Pus Pickers 38
7 Bikini Kill – I Like Fucking 31
8 The Decemberists – Here I Dreamt I Was an Architect 29
8 Beat Happening – teenage caveman full track 29
8 The Earlies – Morning Wonder 29
8 Danielson Famile – Rallying The Dominoes 29
8 The Mountain Goats – Palmcorder Yajna 29

(If you aren't able to stereotype me, don't worry; post your own so that way there are more to generalize!)

[yelley]

i could go to lastfm and copy paste my list for you.

or i could just tell you that the number one song is mogwai-dial:revenge and the next 30something songs are all iron and wine.

[Tom]

Ooh, ooh, stereotype me.

Neutral Milk Hotel - King of Carrot Flowers Pt. One
Gang Gang Dance - House Jam
Animal Collective - Brother Sport
My Bloody Valentine - Soon
The Velvet Underground - Sunday Morning
Frog Eyes - Idle Sounds
Deerhunter - Agoraphobia

[Professor Snuggles]

  The Mountain Goats – Counting Song
The Mountain Goats – There Will Be No Divorce full track
The National – Lit Up
The Mountain Goats – Standard Bitter Love Song #8 full track         
The National – Start a War
The National – Karen
The National – Apartment Story
The Mountain Goats – Sail On full track
The Mountain Goats – Going to Santiago full track
The Mountain Goats – Color in Your Cheeks
The National – The Geese of Beverly Road
The National – American Mary full track
The National – Fake Empire
The National – Baby, We'll Be Fine
Heathers – margie

This tells you more about the songs I listen to when I go to sleep than anything about me as a person, though.

1. You are actually me. But a dude named Tom. OR
2. You are the music enthusiast who disdains all other music enthusiasts if they know less about classic-- seminal, if you will--albums than you do. You don't mind people who listen to top 40 or whatever, it's just those goddamn hipsters ruining everything for you.

[squawk]

This is what my top tracks were for the months of September to December. I already posted it somewhere. I like this selection best because it is so sad

1. The Magnetic Fields – All My Little Words
2. Okkervil River – Song of Our So-Called Friend
3. The Radio Dept. – I Wanted You to Feel the Same
4. The Radio Dept. – The City Limit
5. The Magnetic Fields – I Don't Want to Get Over You
6. TV on the Radio – Love Dog
7. The Wedding Present – Dare
8. Why? – Fatalist Palmistry
9. The Radio Dept. – South Side
10. Okkervil River – It Ends With A Fall

My real one looks like this though

[BrittanyMarie]

number one song is mogwai-dial:revenge and the next 30something songs are all iron and wine.

grr is chiiiilllllllll. I'd stereotype you as you probably like to knit a lot and just hang out and watch a movie at home as opposed to going out and getting drunk. If you do go to shows, you prefer assigned seating to general admission. (I already knew you like to knit though)

[Spluff]

Kyuss
Pink Floyd

Black Sabbath
Russian Circles
Agalloch
Slo Burn
Megadeth

You're a guitar wankster.

[Hat]

I didn't do songs because that list is mostly of songs from 2ManyDJs sets and TISM songs, so here's the top 10 artists, it seemed kind of easier to do Spluff this way as well

1 2 Many DJ's
2 LCD Soundsystem
3 Daft Punk
4 Digitalism
5 Soulwax
6 Richie Hawtin
7 mclusky
8 Simian Mobile Disco

You were the long haired dude in your drama class in high school but you never fitted in there because you wouldn't wear makeup and you're not into glam metal.

4. Humaita - Hey Ocean!
5. Between the Bars - Elliot Smith

[Nodaisho]

Just going on random of my library, and ignoring anything I don't listen to, since I don't use lastfm. I'll just do the artist, rather than the song, because I've found that a good amount of the songs I'm getting are not stand-outs.

Witchcraft
Dead Kennedys
Megadeth
Down
Judas Priest
Isis
Clutch
Bruce Springsteen
Trans-Siberian Orchestra
Overkill
Iron Maiden

Wow, after a while, I just kept going without writing it down, and I did not get any Agalloch. Odd.

[yelley]

This tells you more about the songs I listen to when I go to sleep than anything about me as a person, though.

this. my iron and wine playcount is so high because i used to leave it on loop while i slept.

top artists then...
iron and wine
mogwai
our lady peace
the shins
fiona apple
kings of convenience
the decemberists
the american analog set
antony and the johnsons
the new pornographers (what? how? i barely even know anything by them)
monkey majik
a perfect circle
ratatat
sigur ros

[Emaline]

I don't have a fancy computer or last.fm, so can I just post what I know are my top five songs on itunes?


1. Lonely Organist Rape Page Turner - Dresden Doll
2. Astronaut - Amanda Palmer
3. Mason Twins - David Pajo
4. Gentleman Caller - Cursive
5. Hurt -   Nine Inch Nails


Woooo! Make a generalization about me now!

[JediBendu]

Witchcraft
Dead Kennedys
Megadeth
Down
Judas Priest
Isis
Clutch
Bruce Springsteen
Trans-Siberian Orchestra
Overkill
Iron Maiden

You like beer. Your wardrobe is pretty limited, and one item within it may or may not be a denim jacket. Missing a shower every once in a while probably is not a huge deal to you.

I have to admit that's all basically from the Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Megadeth and Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Isis is rad.

I listen to things on my Zune, which doesn't keep track of listens, I don't think. And I rarely listen to musics on the computer so Last.fm and the like don't really appeal to me.

So here's stuff I've been listening to lately, I suppose, just from memory.

4. Battles - Race: In

2. Deep Purple
3. Blind Guardian

10. Misfits

MadassAlex, you need to get the metal out of your head. AND CUT YOUR DAMN HAIR AND STOP PLAYING THAT BC RICH.

I listen to things on my Zune,

I can't think of a better generalization than, YOU'RE GAY.
(I'm only joking though, you're a cool dude)

[MadassAlex]

so how's the whole mohawk thing working out

[Jace]

Pretty okay in December '07!

You have long hair, wear the same pair of ratty jeans you have everyday for the last two years and wear a lot of band t-shirts. You may or may not have a neckbeard. You laugh at emokids saying they're so sad trying to fit in and think you're above that.

You eat children with rice while you sleepwalk wearing a dress you bought in 1999 while doing math in your head but the answers are always wrong.

You get stoned almost constantly and talk about music that nobody you know likes. When you play your music, people either clutch their ears and complain or fall asleep.

[BlahBlah]

I went for my top artists because my most played tracks got messed up after I left my iPod on during a flight.

Guided by Voices
The Olivia Tremor Control
of Montreal
The Beatles
Radiohead
Sonic Youth
Pavement
The Fall
Girl Talk
Pixies

you're assuming from the music i listen to that i'm bad at math? geez guy, way to stereotype.

[BrittanyMarie]

1. Benga - Night

I'm taking the easy way out on this one and giving you the link to something you've probably seen before. On the plus side, that one is probably the one I'd be most likely to date.

[michaelicious]

you're assuming from the music i listen to that i'm bad at math? geez guy, way to stereotype.

Just callin 'em as I see 'em.

5 Silkworm

10 Polvo

Assume all you want.

You care too much about silly rock music. Your chucks are worn but clean, jeans are tight but not skinny, t-shirts obscure, and you have no upper body strength. Your hair is in your eyes. Sometimes you talk a lot about musicians that your friends haven't heard of.
