I'll start off by listing some of the music I've been listening to a lot lately:
- Pantera: Probably my favourite metal band. Their music and really catchy and groovy and yet has a lot of depth. Being a guitarist myself, I'm hugely inspired and influenced by the awesome riffs and leads from Dimebag Darrell. RIP brother.
- Paco de Lucia: Killer flamenco guitarist. I'm not too familiar with this kind of music, I really love it, and I hope to discover more music such as this.
- Gipsy Kings: A tip from Nacho. Very cool rumba flamenco kind of music.
- Lamb of God: Awesome band, nothing more to say.
- Spawn of Possession: Technical brutal death metal. Bands in this genre that play this kind of death metal usually tend to bore me. But these guys manage to write technical brutal stuff and yet keep it very catchy.
- Down: Very cool sludge stoner band. It kind of sounds like a mixture of old school heavy metal with hard rock and dirty bluesy guitar solos.
- Hans Zimmer: The guy that composed lots of cool soundtracks for movies. My favourites being The Rock, Gladiator and the Pirates of the Carribean movies.
So what do you guys like? Or dislike? =P
