    Furrows of the Gods - Drudkh
    Bleak - Opeth
    Anesthetize - Porcupine Tree
    How Could I - Cynic
    The Rite of Spring - Stravinsky

    This was hard, I tend to think more in terms of albums then songs.

    So do I, there are only a few bands whose songs I can name.

    In no particular order, and this changes quite regularly...

    When All The Lights Go Out - Anti-Flag - I get chills almost every time I yell this song out.
    The Press Corpse - Anti-Flag - Pretty much typical Anti-Flag = awesome
    Dismantle.Repair - Anberlin - Softer than most things I listen to, but still a great band and a great song
    State of the Union - Rise Against - Fast, hard and unashamedly political. Rise Against at their best.
    West End Riot - The Living End - This song is simply amazing and everyone should listen to it.

    I've seen all of the last 3 live and will never forget them. Truly special moments for me musically... and I will be seeing Rise Against again next January.

    Of all time is too difficult... sooo many great albums.
    As of late though, in the past three or four weeks, I've rediscovered the following in my collection (in no order by the way):

    Sigur Ros - Glosoli (from Takk...)
    My Bloody Valentine - Blown a Wish (from Loveless)
    The Jesus and Mary Chain - About You (from Darklands)
    Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Dudley (from Show Your Bones)
    Sonic Youth - Sweet Shine (from Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star)

    NB: I'd only discovered Sigur Ros about two weeks back. Individual tracks don't stand out incredibly well, rather entire albums simply blow me away. <3 their sound.

    Way too many choices and variety to name 5 top songs, music depends on styles, moods, and periods of life. So here are 5 random songs that rock, at least in my mind:

    Stranglehold - old school Nugent live
    Stigmata - Ministry. The live version from In Case You Didn't Feel Like Showing Up was even better, they used 2 actual drummers instead of machines. Used to be on YouTube, but I guess it got taken down.
    Ticks and Leeches - Tool. Wonder how many calories Carey burns when he bashes the skins on this one.
    Christbait Rising - Godflesh. When grunge killed metal in 1990, luckily I had this to switch to.
    Hey Man Nice Shot - Filter
    The .Org's MTW Reference Guide Wiki - now taking comments, corrections, suggestions, and submissions

    If I werent playing games Id be killing small animals at a higher rate than I am now - SFTS
    Si je n'étais pas jouer à des jeux que je serais mort de petits animaux à un taux plus élevé que je suis maintenant - Louis VI The Fat

    "Why do you hate the extremely limited Spartan version of freedom?" - Lemur
