I'm curious as to what all the science lovers on physics forums like to listen to. Feel free to throw in whatever styles or genres you like as well.

I've liked metal for a long time (decades), so I'm excited about Megadeth (an old school act that's survived till now) coming to my neck of the woods (Singapore) in less than a month's time. Needless, to say, I have a ticket!
I also love many other genres of music, especially classical music. Except for opera. Really hate that, for some reason.
claytonh4 said:No way! Metal is my favorite as well but I thought on these forums I'd be a loner on that haha. Thrash metal specifically is some of my favorite especially Slayer, Exodus, Testament, and Metallica (even though they're not strictly metal anymore) as well as some industrial stuff like Rammstein. Good to know someone here shares those tastes in music haha.

I love progressive rock/metal. The Scandinavian metal scene is the best in the world.
I also love Porcupine Tree, Anathema, Alice In Chains, God Is an Astronaut, Machine Head, Godsmack, Tool etc. :D
ViolentCorpse said:Oh my, you're so lucky. I hope I get to see all these great bands someday too.
I'm not a big fan of Heritage either. I really like a few songs but, it doesn't sound like Opeth. I really hope they go back to being what they truly are. I was expecting something more like Watershed when Heritage was coming out, but it was entirely something else.
I just ADORE Watershed. :D
Yeah I'm from Pakistan. No foreign acts here unfortunately and no it's not governmental prohibition. It's just the security issues and stuff.Curious3141 said:Are you from Pakistan? Do you get foreign acts coming there? If you don't, is it because of governmental prohibition? Is there a local metal scene?
Yeah, India has the talent and the audience.I know lots of guys who are into metal in India - heck they find their way here to Singapore to follow the bands when they come here. Lots of big name acts play gigs in India as well, so you could always go check them out there. I know India has a thriving metal scene too - just listen to bands like Kryptos.
Same here. :DTrue. My favourite song (in fact the only one I really like) off Heritage is "Folklore".
Still Life is awesome, but My Arms, Your Hearse is my least favorite Opeth album. It just doesn't hit me like their other albums do.But, honestly, Watershed simply can't hold a candle to their earlier releases. My favourite will always be Still Life, followed closely by My Arms, Your Hearse. Ghost Reveries, Deliverance and Blackwater Park are all also brilliant. Damnation is a breathtaking acoustic album that's best heard as an extended prelude to the brutal release of Deliverance. Morningrise is also very good, but Orchid is a little too raw for me to really get into it.

I love all kinds of music, and I like a lot of weird electronic stuff. A few of all time favourites are:
Jimi Hendrix!...
