^Sweeping generalisation = you believe there is no such thing as too many guitar solos and feel that not enough people wear leather pants these days.

The first bit is so very true. The second bit is very wrong. :)

You like quite a few good bands and would generally have a good taste in everything, Steely Dan also tells me that you probably don't give too much importance (if at all) to what you are "supposed" to listen to
. In other words, you and I would probably get along rather well.

I can't make any sweeping generalizations really cause I only know 3 of those bands but if this means anything in Germany we're legally married.

Camo shorts, plugs, tattoos and a ticket to Hellfest (or if you're British Ninjafest). In a few years you'll probably ditch the 'core stuff and find that you mainly listen to nice bands like Death Cab For Cutie and drive an SUV or something.

youbelongtothecity on the other hand, I'd say you're stuck with it. You've probably been listening to hardcore and DIY stuff for quite a few years but you aren't that old, probably early twenties. I'd imagine you play in a band, do a label, put on gigs or do something or other in the scene. You most likely own a sweater, plenty of badges and a lot of the same records I do.

You play far too much video games for own good.  As a result, your skin is pasty, you hair is long, but you aren't fat due to strenuous air guitaring you do as you rock the fuck out to power metal.  You think traditional fantasy things are preety cool, like fantasy art, and read a lot of fantasy.  You probably like science fiction as well.  If you don't read inverloch you probably should.

How did I do?

haha, extremely accurate actually; though I'm just now checking out this "inverloch," and I dont have long hair... not right now at least... I guess I dont pose much of a challenge; a random shuffle of my music brings up amon amarth, wintersun, loads of power metal, some nerdcore hip hop, chiptunes/game soundtracks, and then a couple Summoning tracks in there, sprinkle in some black metal on some shuffles.

Scytale- tough to pin by those. I have most of these songs, but I don't believe you are anything like me.

haha I'm only 18 and I've only been listen to hardcore for like a year. I don't have a band currently though I'm starting a couple, and I would like to put on shows.

but the music sucks because the keyboards don't have the cold/mechanical sound they had but a wannabe techno sound that it's pathetic for Rammstein standars.

Sigh...I have actually heard of almost all of these bands...you wear really, really tight jeans, have short spiky hair, wear eyeshadow, tie a kercheif around your left legto go to shows, hang a massive keychain from your belt...and like Christian metalcore way too much for your own good...and when your not listening to metalcore you listen to pseudo-industrial.
