K guys, here's how to participate:
1. Own an MP3 player/iTunes/etc.
2. Shuffle your songs.
3. Name the first 10 different artists that appear on your shuffle.
Why? It's fun to see what comes up. You can have your favorite band in the world not show up at all, and in the same instance have an artist come up that only has one or two songs on your iPod. It can give people a general idea of your music taste, or it cannot.
After you post the 10 artists, post how accurately the shuffle conveyed your taste in music.
Here goes:
1. Thrice - good band, not what they used to be.
2. Avenged Sevenfold - one of my top 5ish favorite bands right now.
3. Lucky Boys Confusion - Lol, used to listen to these guys in like 10th grade.
4. Story of The Year - see #3
5. Fort Minor - ahh, yes, Mike Shinoda's 'solo' efforts. One CD, lots of good things. Now he's back to doing Linkin Park things...
6. Chevelle - another top 5ish favorite band. Their sound and lyrics are killer.
7. The Beatles - do I need to comment?
8. Nine Days - HAHAHAHAAH, you guys remember this song? "This is the story of a girl/who cried a river and drowned the whole world." Interesting sidenote, that song was written about my 10th grade Italian teacher. Yep. Another sidenote, the band broke up and the lead singer is now an English teacher in my high school. Not joking.
9. Bullet For My Valentine - Dear God, it's about time they showed up. Probably my favorite band right now.
10. Linkin Park - whew, I was wondering where they were. Probably my favorite band of all-time, I've invested lots of hours into listening to LP.
Artists missing that I listen to a lot: Lupe Fiasco, Kanye West, Blindside, Bayside, Paramore,
There you have it. Although there's almost zero hip-hop/rap, my shuffle was pretty damn accurate for the first 10-15 songs...Now it's your turn!
