Music

It wasn't me!

OK. What kind of music does everyone listen to? What're people's top ten CD's? Just somewhere to talk about music in general really.

My ten favourite CD's:
System of a Down-SOAD
Rage Against the Machine-RATM
Green Day-International Superhits
Slayer-Decade Of Aggression
Slayer-A Reign In Blood
Muse-Origin Of Symmetry
Incubus-Make Yourself
Red Hot Chili Peppers-Blood Sugar Sex Magik
Foo Fighters-The Colour and the Shape
Radiohead-The Bends
Korn-Follow the Leader
Smashing Pumpkins-Rotten Apples
Nirvana-Nevermind

OK. So it was a few more than ten but I like a lot of CD's. They're in no particular order either since the order would vary a lot depending on the mood I'm in. Post away then!
