I like quite an interesting range of music: metal, indie, singer-songwriter, alt rock, Celtic metal, christian metal (yes there is such a thing), classical, some blues, some country, and pretty much any other kinds of rock I didn't mention. I just can't stand most pop and rap though.

Guess my favorite band would have to be Tragically hip.

Wow, well, Queensryche when I want melancholy, philosophical inspiration. When I'm not writing, 80's music fits the bill. If I killing background noise and digging into a story though, Hans Zimmer, Danny Elfman, pretty much any movie score will thrust me into another world. Peter Gabriel's soundtrack for "The Last Temptation of Christ" is definitely one to check out!

Oh that would take a long time...I'm a bit diverse in my listening ;). BUT since this is a group about writing, I'll post what I often listen to when I write :). Abney Park (best steampunk band EVER!), Trailerhead, Corner Stone Cues (both of those are trailer music "groups" aka stuff you'd hear in movies, but not familiar themes. If you have a fight scene to write though both ROCK!) Nightwish and Beyond Temptation are also great writing groups (some songs anyway).

Non-writing some favs are Muse, Pinback, Concrete Blonde, Mozart, Beatles, Black Keys, Pogues, Flogging Molly....ok, I'll be here all night!

My musical tastes are like my choice in genre for reading; varied. I like everything from celtic bagpipes to alternative, hard rock, classical, country or some house music... even a bit of rap. Generally though when I am writing, it is something like Evanescence, Kittie, Archenemy or Metallica... perhaps old chool Pantera or Sepultura. :p

It changes, but right now I'm listening to Les Friction, Theocracy, Majestic Vanguard, Hans Zimmer, the Assassin's Creed themes, and random freelance soundtracks I find on Youtube when looking a short films from friends and colleagues.

Click to expand...

Aren't the AC themes works of musical genius? I'm into the chase theme from the 1st game at the moment.

This is also a good one by Theatre of Tragedy (and the middle of the song has a clip of Vincent Price from Masque of the Red Death):
