    Gah, I hate lists like this because I can hardly narrow it down... top ten of the year? Of all time? What do I love right now? And don't ask me to order them... that's even worse!

    Okay, any list of mine would probably have to include:

    Kiss, because that was my first favorite band ever and the old stuff is still good.
    Stevie Nicks/Fleetwood Mac
    Aerosmith, the old stuff -- local boys
    Heart, and all solo/side projects
    Led Zeppelin
    Marc Bolan/T Rex
    The Beatles, because I could listen to their entire catalog
    Jack White and all of his projects
    Dave Matthews, especially live
    Nine Inch Nails

    and recently P!nk because she's got a bunch of pretty kick-*kitten* tunes... honorable mention.

    Personally, I only got 4 that I follow exclusively.

    That's Weeknd, Theophilus London, Childish Gambino, and Macklemore. Can't believe I almost forgot him. He needs to put out new stuff.

    Yes there are artists that I listened to when I was younger, but I don't hear em now, and most of the music I listen to are just songs I collect from sound cloud and don't know much about the artists/bands.
