New one to see if your interests have changed.

I usually listen to Godsmack and Alice in Chains. On occasion I like to draw while listening to teachers lectures even though I don't particularily like thier music.

Still no. Surprisingly, I draw pretty well if I'm listening to a lecture in class. It'd be pretty nice if I didn't also have to write down everthing they put on the board.

And I still like country music. Deal with it, rockers.

Heh, well, I hardly draw at all anymore outside of class.

But if I do, I listen almost exclusively to video game music. Hitoshi Sakimoto first and foremost, but I like Nobuo Uematsu and Yasunori Mitsuda as well.

If I'm looking for something heavier, I'll listen to Kamelot, Blind Guardian, Rhapsody, Nightwish, et cetera.

Heh... I'm still a Rock/Hard Rock fan...

Rage against the machine if I'm feeling like I need angst to come through in the work.

Music is just an emotional amplifier for me... usually anger.

heh I listen all sorts of stuff, I don't have any taste. I don't whats good or bad, I just listen to whatever sounds cool.

mostly movie soundtracks.

Hmm theres this one guy i listen to alot Hans Zimmer(instrumentals) I know corny but I don't know i like it. He did alot of soundtracks Gladiator, Last samurai, pearl harbor, Metagear solid, pirates of carrabean

Edward scissor hand sound track, Radio head , Reggei, techno, ff7, naruto, Mudvayne they're all pretty cool. heh sometimes I listen to oldies hahaha.

not a big fan of rap, or country :o

Music just helps me get into rhythym when draw. I dont think it really affects the art.

i listen about any music that seem to have a theme in common with what i draw, when i draw a girl i listen to a band with a female singer, type of girl i draw vary with the musical style, i dont listen to hard rock or punk if i draw a princess for example... i usually listen to smoother stuff without getting in *gay* music, agressive girl with a sword or a scythe (deadly girl drawing) is more like punk of metal still with female singer

most of my bands are:

Kittie: Metal, all female band ====> related theme ex: almost anything since songs vary a lot good for overall drawing themes

The Distillers, female singer ====> related theme ex: again the music style vary a lot, from punk to rock to hard rock or punk hardcore, another good overall

Kidney Thieves, female singer ====> related theme ex: softer stuff or weird stuff, music style variation again (good unknown band btw)

Rammstein, No need to say more,,,

Raised fist, male singer ====> related theme ex: extreme drawing, demons... violent stuff...

System of a down, no need to say more again...

Melissa Auf Der Maur, female singer (meh!) ====> not too extreme but not smooth either... typical rock and hard rock band sometime strange...

Ladytron, female singer(s) ====> humm for smoother stuff or technologic drawings...

Others: plenty of them, would had to write for hours to name them all... however i dont listen to rap since i hate that... except for 1 song Wicked and Weird of Buck65 (its funny especially the clip)

I also enjoy clasical music a lot: Pachelbel's cannon, Mozart's Requiem (the best music ever created), Pergolesi, Stabat Mater, The funerals of the Queen Mary (Purcel), The Four Seasons... I'm also quite a fan of the Beatles. But these days my thoughts are rather too chaotic for sweet soft music, I need something more violent!
