But then I'll import them onto iTunes... :D

And, on the lighter side...

OK, so they wouldn't all be on the same CD...but you can find me listening to any of them at work on any given day.

And if you ever get a chance, try to find Recoil - Breath Control. It is very bizarre, and you can't stop listening to it...well, I can't anyways.
 
A few that come to mind:

Gary Moore ... Empty Rooms, Still Got the Blues, Military Man
Black Sabbath ... Megalomania, Fairies Wear Boots, Junior's Eyes
Megadeth ... Peace Sells, Tornado of Souls, Psychotron,
Metallica ... One, Leper Messiah, and Harvester of Sorrow
Queensrych ... Take Hold of the Flame, The Lady Wore Black, Operation: Mindcrime
Thin Lizzy ... Johnny the Fox (meets Jimmy the weed), Fool's Gold, Romeo and the Lonely Girl
The Scorpions ... I'm going mad, In Trance, Sun In My Hand
The Pink Floyd ... Remember a Day, See Emily Play, Lucifer Sam
Judas Priest .... Run of the Mill, Victim of Changes, Invader
 
Since I seem to understand psychoses (never had one that got control though), I like some of the bands that have lyrics that could be disturbing to most.

The Offspring is probably my favorite band. There albums include Conspiracy of One and Americana. Some of the titles include "I want you bad" (including lines such as "I want you, in a vinyl suit, I want you bad" and "Your one vice, is you're too nice") and "Special Delivery" (including lines such as "Down you street is where I stay, I know you better that way" and "The voices told me to blow you away") and "Damnit, I changed again". I really loved Fight Club, Falling Down, and Natural Born Killers, but I have never done anything more than speeding! Figure that out!

I also like some Black Sabbath (Paranoid, Iron Man are faves) and Guns and Roses.

Now for the eclectic variety. I like a lot of '80's stuff, being a teen of the '80's.

Garth Brooks
Fleetwood Mac
Older Madonna
The Outfield
The Bangles
Simon and Garfunkel
Classical, preferable Baroque with Trumpets and Flutes prominent
Timbukthree (Future's So Bright, I gotta wear shades)
The Beatles (Rock and Roll Music)
The Doors
The B-52's
U2
Garbage
No Doubt

I do like some rap, mostly '80's type rap (Baby got back!), but I am very picky about it.
 
Gabby Pahinui
Lynyrd Skynyrd
Ola Mauna
Bob Marley
BB King
Pretty much anything from all of them
 
Simon & Garfunkle
Paul Simon
Van Morrison
Blues Traveler
Baka Beyond
Most Classical music
Billy Joel
U2
Tom Petty
John Lee Hooker

These are the main ones, few other bands, but not all of their songs.
 
jiveturkey:
I would try Lateralus and then work your way back. That's the most recent album. Definitely a heavy band but not really like the 2 you mentioned.

Go here click on "vide" and check out the video for "Schism". Then, try here at the bottom right under "top 7 music videos" you'll find the video for Parabola which is very highly recommended. Make sure to double click the vid so you can make it full screen. While their music can seem dark they all deal with finding positive things out of life.

Take a look. I'm curious to hear what you think. I love turning people on to this band.

I ordered this album from the internet. It should be here next week. Thanks again for the tip.
