Disclaimer: my top 50 don't really reflect my current taste in music all that well. I'm working on changing that.
1. How did you get into 31?
In Flames. I was looking for a good metal instrumental, and someone recommended
Man Made God.
2. What was the first song you ever heard by 22?
Ah,
Cynic's
Veil of Maya. This may be my favorite album opener of all time.
3. What's your favorite lyric by 29?
"Bow to the savior of the fearful and desperate / Shepherd of deception / Prophet of infection / Behold the
Xenochrist!". Awesome outro.
The Faceless were the ones who convinced me that Deathcore wasn't all shit.
4. What is your favourite album by 49?
No contest,
Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). The first hip-hop album I ever liked.
5. How many albums by 13 do you own?
Mastodon. All five of their full-lengths. I also bough the ATHF movie soundtrack just for
Cut You Up With A Linoleum Knife.
6. What is your favorite song by 50?
Demons and Wizards. Probably
Fiddler On The Green.
7. Is there a song by 4 that makes you sad?
I'm pretty sure that there's a
Beatles song for every emotion. I'll go with
Julia.
8. What is your favorite song by 15?
Tough one, because
The Doors have a lot of amazing tracks, but I'll say
The Unknown Soldier.
9. What is your favorite song by 5?
Kalmah is another tough one.
Doubtful About It All, maybe?
10. Is there a song by 6 that makes you happy?
The Jimi Hendrix Experience, of course. Off the top of my head,
Angel.
11. What is your favorite album by 40?
Definitely
Caught Somewhere in Time. Where
Iron Maiden peaked in my opinion.
12. What is your favorite song by 10?
Ensiferum. Has to be
Into Battle. The guitar solo... rock.
13. What is a good memory you have involving 33?
Explosions in the Sky. Too many to count, mostly involving psychedelics.
14. What is your favorite song by 37?
Radiohead. Surprisingly, I guess it's
Meeting In The Aisle, a random instrumental B-side off of some EP.
15. Is there a song by 19 that makes you happy?
Fuck yeah
Necrophagist.
To Breathe in a Casket always makes me glad that I'm not currently buried alive, I guess.
16. How many times have you seen 24 live?
Lamb of God - just once, in LA. Not that great a show.
17. What is the first song you ever heard by 23?
Nirvana. Almost certainly
Smells Like Teen Spirit.
18. What is your favorite album by 11?
Pink Floyd's
Wish You Were Here.
19. Who is a favorite member of 1?
Death? The obvious answer, Chuck Schuldiner (R.I.P.).
20. Have you ever seen 14 live?
Nope, never seen
Joe Satriani.
21. What is a good memory involving 45?
Sir Mix-A-Lot? Well, this is embarrassing. The time the Pitt band played
Jump on It at halftime at some football game, maybe? (This is one of the artists covered in the above disclaimer, by the way.)
22. What is your favorite song by 16?
Metallica. Easily
The Call of Ktulu.
23. What is the first song you ever heard by 47?
Black Sabbath. Dunno, likely
Iron Man.
24. What is your favorite album by 21?
Not much of a selection as far as
Dethklok albums go. I liked
Dethalbum II better than the first one.
25. What is your favorite song by 18?
Pixies. Hmm...
I Bleed.
26. What is the first song you ever heard by 38?
Guns N' Roses. First I can remember is
Welcome To The Jungle.
27. What is your favorite lyric by 3?
Sigh...
Children of Bodom. Who knows, it's not like the lyrics to any of their songs are distinguishable anyways. Maybe "Warheart! With no compassion or love / Warheart! Hate your fellow as yourself" from
Warheart.
28. What is your favorite song by 2?
Sublime. A lot of great songs, but I'll go with
Boss D.J..
29. What was the first song you ever heard by 32?
Slayer. I think it was
Angel of Death, which I still regard as their best song.
30. What is your favorite song by 8?
Wow, this is a tough choice for
Led Zeppelin. I have to say
Nobody's Fault But Mine, but this is very very close.
31. How many times have you seen 17 live?
I have no idea what
OutKast is doing in this position. Never.
32. Is there a song by 44 that makes you happy?
Yep, nearly all of
Tenacious D's songs will do the trick.
Double Team always cracks me up.
33. What is your favorite album by 12?
God Dethroned. Easily
Bloody Blasphemy.
34. What is the worst song by 46?
Where to start with
Styx? I used to like
Mr. Roboto, but all it does now is raise my urge to kill.
35. What was the first song you ever heard by 34?
Elvis.
Hound Dog, I guess?
36. What is your favorite album by 42?
Immortal Technique.
Revolutionary Vol. 2 is amazing.
37. How many times have you seen 39 live?
Jay-Z, never.
38. What is your favorite album by 36?
Also a pretty sparse selection for
Gorillaz. Between the two, I'll say
Demon Days.

The Who. This is unusual, but the first one I can remember is
Christmas.
40. What is your favorite album by 7?
Queen,
A Night At The Opera.
