[my conscience: "don't waste your one shot at glory on the 'introduce yourselves' thread talking about ice cream! there will be other opportunities to talk about ice cream! say something about music!"]
I'm 20 yrs old, quite fond but not in love with [band I: a 5-piece from Glasgow] and [band II: a 2-piece from Paris], in love with [band III: a defunct 5 (not 6!)-piece from Stockton] and brackets, not naming the bands because they're pretty much interchangeable with a bunch of other bands, into old movies, a lapsed anarcho-socialist, a (slowly) recovering cool junkie, shy, too eager for value commitment, thirsty, I'll stop now.

I'm Curt, 48, but I'm still prettier than any of you. I'm a graphic designer living in Michigan. I remember when Elvis was new. Not that I thought at age 3, "This means a big change for pop music," or anything, but I remember the commotion around the house. My older brothers were entering their teens. One was a huge Jerry Lee Lewis fan with a big rebel DA. I grew up on my brothers' singles and their box record players like every kid in America had at the time. Elvis, Jerry Lee, Everlys, Chuck Berry - I get a rush seeing the sleeves now. My first records, and my first fave, was Ricky Nelson. Lonesome Town. Because he was on TV, I guess.
I remember the 60s, of course, but I don't have anything new to say about it.
I stopped listening to pop records for about two years in the mid-70s. I got into classical. Nothing weird, just Bach, Mozart, Beethoven and those boys. In '77, punk called me back. Actually, it was Cheap Trick that first made me want to listen again. The next few years were a third golden era.
I sat out another stretch later, roughly 1989 to 1997, when I bought next to nothing that was current. The ony contemporary pop CDs I recall getting were:
Charlatans Some Friendly (my 1st CD purchase)
Monie Love Down to Earth
Talk Talk Laughing Stock
Concrete Blonde Bloodletting WHY??
Breeders Last Splash
Morphine Cure for Pain
Until the End of the World Soundtrack
Crime and the City Solution Paradise Discotheque
It started when I quit buying new vinyl before i even had a CD player. Then, with the price of CDs, I spent my money on sure things, old rootsy catalog releases that had never been available before. Lots of old jazz, blues, 60s ska boxes, pre-rock adult pop, as well as pre-'89 rock. So I missed out on grunge. More like, grunge came knocking and I said go fuck yourself, dude, I'll take Count Basie. I felt like the culture of youth rebellion was hopelessly beyond played out, and I wanted no part of its attitude in music, art, fashion, anything.
Eventually, I felt like I'd go insane if I heard another saxaphone solo. Some other factors came together, too. Different friends with different interests, one with a record store. More interesting new music - electronic, ambient, all variety of stuff with more pop input. Record guides, especially All Music, the Internet, used CD stores, CD burners., oh, my head!
I dropped in on ama from time to time but always found it hard to follow. Now, I've read all of the ilm archives, and I wish you'd all wrap up your ile hippie chitchat and get your sorry asses back over here.

Favorite artists include Billie Holiday, Syd Barrett, The Beatles, Le Tigre, The Clash, Bikini Kill, Manic Street Preachers (up till 95), McCarthy, X-Ray Spex, Public Enemy, Sex Pistols, Marvin Gaye, Stone Roses, Pulp, Suede, the Pixies, Sleater-Kinney, Kenickie, the Ronettes, and Subway Sect. My favorite single of all time is "One Chord Wonders" by the Adverts.
Favorite writers - Salinger, Philip Larkin, Ballard, Burroughs, Greil Marcus, Allen Ginsberg, Albert Camus, and Gore Vidal. My favorite film is "Taxi Driver." The two books that changed my life, when I was 15, were Catcher In The Rye and Nik Cohn's Rock From The Beginning. I've spent much of the following four years obsessively reading the rock press - Christgau and Bangs and the rest are like old friends to me, but I've recently gotten into the U.K. crowd like Reynolds and Roberts and Penman, who are pretty hard to find here outside of the pages of UNCUT. My favorite magazine, although I recognize its mediocrity compared to the greatness of NME and Melody Maker in the Eighties. I've been reading this forum for months and it only recently occured to me to post anything. Hope to get to know you all soon enough...

I used to tell people that I listened to every kind of music, except the kind that "they" play on the radio. Then, and perhaps eternal favorites would probably be Joy Division, PIL, Gang of Four, and Pere Ubu (which probably makes me sounds like some boring, self-absorbed asshole, who wears black, goes on at length about "transgressive culture" and Marxist politics, and does whatever it is that Pere Ubu fans do... which isn't [entirely] the truth) Then I joined the Peace Corps and moved to Kazakhstan (which will be my home for another year, unless events occurring a couple hundred miles south of here get hot enough to require Peace Corps's withdrawal from Central Asia). Whoever has previously claimed to be living in the middle of nowhere has obviously never been to Kazakhstan. This move basically cut off any connection I once had to all of the realities I once enjoyed, including the resources that allowed me to listen to music other than what "they" play on the radio. By resources, I mean not only access to stores that sell non-commercial music, but the money with which to buy it (those of you who already find it hard to scrape together enough money to "feed your addiction" should try living on 100 dollars a month).
I mention this because I think I have a slightly different history than most of you when it comes to a personal relationship with mainstream, "pop music." Which is to say, I started listening to it not out of a) dissatisfaction/frustration with the underground/non- Top 40/indie music scene or b) my own self-willed recognition/revelation that mainstream music is not necessarily absolute crap. No. I started listening to mainstream music because I had no choice. I could either resign myself to the retro-hell of listening incessently to the same CDs from the (admittedly large) cache I lugged here from America (a fate which I know that those of you who share my sickness, ie probably all of you, would never willfully endure) and hope for the kindness of mix-tape making friends (In the year I've been here, I've recieved exactly one package from America containing mix-tapes. There were, admittedly, seven tapes, but that was over 9 months ago...) - OR - I could suck it up and start listening to what is available here. I should mention, just in case anyone thinks I'm actually complaining here, that I am glad that circumstances forced to me broaden my horizons a bit - in hindsight, I was starting to slip into a rather predictable funk. But I think this gives me a slightly warped perspective on things - I am an avid listener of pop music who has yet to be entirely sold on the pop aesthetic. At least, it feels warped.
So my current batch of favorites include, in addition to the Russian pop music that is played incessently over here (and was I hallucinating, or did someone on ILM mention Tattoo and Detsl?!), Aaliyah, Missy E, Nelly, Outkast, Radiohead, Eve, DMX, Jay-Z, Destiny's Child, Daft Punk, Basement Jaxx... And after consuming a large ammount alcohol, I've been known to admit to liking some Britney. All of these are available (in bootleg format, of course) at the local kiosk for the cost of a bottle of vodka. I should mention that the only two from this list that I would have bought had I been living in America this last year are Outkast and Radiohead.
The seven mix-tapes I mentioned above were all death metal/harcore/out-of-controlcore like At the Gates, Refused, Cave-In, Dillinger Escape Plan, Today is the Day, Converge, Coalesce, Deadguy, Cavity. This has been another recent revelation - metal does not always suck.
Guess I should include... Name: Matthew Cohen. Age: 24. Graduated from a small liberal arts college with a BA in Political Science. Planning on going back to school for a PhD in same. Speak Russian, but not fluently (what does "fluent" mean, really?)...
I should also mention my propensity to go on and on at length (interspersing my writing with parenthetical remarks that are often longer than the senteces they are intended to supplement).

Side interests: Making music... indie/droney stuff and electronic stuff. Also DJing all sorts of dance music.. hip hop/experimental/weirder techy house/80s/whatevah
No personal home page... but here's a recent mix CD I made, as well as a couple of electronic tracks I did for some tributes. And here's what I look like...

Oh, me? Jeff. 36. Currently living and working in Brussels, Belgium, but originally from England (London/Home Counties). Found IL* through Ned and Brian's advertising it on a Stereolab e-mail list to which I belong. So it's all their fault.
What I like:
"Classical" - JS Bach motets, Beethoven late string quartets and Symphony No.9, Schubert songs and late works, Tchaikovsky orchestral works, Debussy piano préludes, Bartok "Music For Strings Percussion and Celeste", Shostakovich symphonies, Herbert Howells church music, most any Berio, Feldman, George Crumb or Steve Reich
"Popular" - among my faves are records by Throwing Muses, Bernie Green and his orchestra, Public Enemy, A Certain Ratio, Orbital, Yes, Saint Etienne, Aphex Twin, Sister Sledge, The Waitresses, Beach Boys, Talking Heads, Marvin Gaye, Huggy Bear, Marumari, Kate Bush, Low, France Gall, Pink Floyd and Scritti Politti.

my tastes evolve through the diurnal and seasonal cycles .. in the morning, on the way to work, I'll want something hushed like Songs: Ohia or Aixx Em Klemm .. in the afternoon, when the sun is bright, I want liveliness .. some John Coltrane or the Clash, some Miles Davis Quintet or Pavement, Led Zep or Jethro Tull .. in the evening, I need dark, lush sounds, preferably with deep bass or intricate electronic textures. Likewise, in the spring I find myself more in the mood for upbeat pop, in the summer -- aggressive rawk .. now that it's the fall I'm digging out my old Cure and Depeche Mode tapes for driving, the Smiths, Joy Division, etc ... and in the winter I expect to be listening to polarities, both minimalist ambient and experimental noize, romantic-period 'classical' and industrial/synthpop ..
like the forum, I love music. Unfortunately, I don't play any instruments, though I entertain this mild fantasy of buying a dual-cd mixer and DJ'ing indie/electronica dance tunes sometime in the future. But I do enjoy writing music reviews for a site you may have heard of, Pitchforkmedia.com. Otherwise, I'm 24 as of autumn 2001, and live in a little basement apartment in Takoma Park, Maryland, just outside of D.C. I work in the city just two blocks from the White House, and have been making great efforts to restrain my paranoia and avoid holding my breath as I walk the streets and commute from the metro cars. Moving here from Florida seemed like such a great idea, two years ago..
Other interests include film, literature, politics, foreign policy, liberalism, comic books, nightclubbing, video games, and attempts to reconcile the communitarian/lefty/activist/ascetic side of my nature with the decadent, narcissistic pleasure-seeking devil on my other shoulder. The devil wins, more often than not. Can't quite blame it on me being a Gemini.
If you live in the area, or just want to reply to some obnoxious thing I've said in the forums, don't hesitate to comment. I love meeting new people, conversations, writing, etc.
cheers. chris.

I'm from the U.S. Grew up listening to what was on the radio and whatever records we had at home: mostly rock, R&B, soul, disco. Sesame Street songs. Church music. In 6th or 7th grade I dabbled with listening to jazz on the radio. Also around this (77/78) time I used to go to the rehearsals for a "punk" (using the word pretty loosely--some of what they covered was not punk at all, but they did play some Ramones and Clash songs, as well as early Elvis Costello "I'm Not Angry", but even that is stretching it) cover band whose leader was one of my brother's friends.
Around this time, my family moved and I discovered a college radio station I had never listened to before, and suddenly I was exposed to all sorts of music that was totally new to me: punk/new wave/industrial, reggae, free jazz, avant-garde/modern classical/experimental, electronic music, unfamiliar progressive bands (mostly European), traditional music from around the world, Medieval music, and perhaps a few things that don't fit into any of those categories. It was an education. (Around this time I was also very rapidly discovering modern poetry, something very exciting to me for several years after, but not, for the most part, something I enjoy currently.) The station became much less eclectic around 1990 (and I was listening to it less by then anyway), but by that point I already had been made aware of these sometimes invisible forms of music, so I knew what names to try to keep track of.
I was initially intrigued by acid house/techno (etc.) after becoming aware of it via Psychic TV around 1988. (I remember looking at a PTV disc with the words "Turn on/Tune in/The Acid House" with a friend, and both of us debating about whether it meant anything, and if so what.) Saw them eight times and don't regret it, although 99% of the recordings they released are crap. Psychic TV was kind of a 20's thing for me, and I am very ambivalent about how wrapped up I was in their work at the time. (Maybe I was really the victim of subliminal messages in their recordings?) I ended up becoming very turned off by most techno, and the various, related, mutating forms of electronic dance music (but I admit that there must be a lot of it I have not heard). Maybe if I had tried E, but I'm not interested in that now. (I have only one psychedelic experience to my credit, and it was not at a rave.) I also listened to a lot of hip-hop between 1988 and about 1992/93, but I got a bit tired of the homophobia, misogyny, anti-semitism, anti-white, pro-random-violence themes in much of the music. I still check in with it now and then, however.
Around 1993 I "discovered" Arabic music, which is not something I remember hearing on the radio (at least not the classically based popular music I have in mind). This has become some of my very music. I am thinking of individuals such as Oum Kalthoum, Riad el-Sonbatti (mostly known as a composer), Asmahan, Farid el Atrash, Fairouz, Said Mekawy, Mohammed Abdo, plus lesser lights such as Samira Tewfic, Milhem Barakat, Saleh Abdel Gafor, etc. I love this music for its expressiveness; its modal/microtonal approach; its complex rhythms; its often brilliant vocal technique; the color and texture of traditional instruments such as the oud, the ney, and the kanun; the emphasis on improvisation in much of it; and the fact that I can listen to the same piece repeatedly, but still hear something new.
And for the last four years I've been salsa dancing, with increasing seriousness (though I have been out for a while with a knee injury and am currently recovering from minor knee surgery), which has turned me on to salsa, and led me to discover some other Latin musical forms.
Listening to Arabic and Latin music intensively has altered my taste a lot, to the point where it's very hard for me to find new things closer to home, culturally speaking, that I really enjoy. I have more trouble making allowances for singers who can't sing, for one thing. I _have_ been listening to increasing amounts of Sun Ra over the past couple years, too, and he has gone from being just one eccentric artist I was aware of, to being one of my favorites.
I will never have enough money to buy all the CDs I want. Oum Kalthoum alone recorded hundreds of songs, many of them stretching out for a half hour to seventy-five minutes in live performances.
np: Kirsty MacColl "Tropical Brainstorm" (Nice bonus tracks only available on the U.S. release--ha!)

Last CD acquired: The Dismemberment Plan, "Change" (but I'm underwhelmed with what I've heard so far). Favorite artists (active division): Firewater, Girls Against Boys, Mike Doughty. Favorites (RIP division): Afghan Whigs, Soul Coughing, Scarce, Jawbox, Long Fin Killie (rather disappointed with Bows). Rather curious about: Q and Not U, older D-Plan, the Standard. Loathe: nu-metal, female singers who are more about T&A and studio effects than vocal technique, bling-bling hip-hop. Suspect that bluegrass and alt-country and its offshoots are better than I'm willing to credit, but haven't taken the time to explore either.
I live in Washington, DC; I'm not attached and can't seem to attract any man's eye right now.

Whoah. Even scarier that I relate immediately to what your saying...
Myself, I'm mainly a lurker, coming here to find recommendations for music that I can (in theory) download off of the net. I have gone through periods of my life when I spent waayy too much on music, and, can't realistically keep that up. I would love CD prices to drop. Listening to music either seems to consume my life or be in it very little at all. I'm in the latter stage at the moment, no music at work, no time at home, it's beginning to piss me off. To console myself I need I think of the thousands upon thousands of years we humans didn't have any recorded music at all. What would they have had to speak to people about on message boards?
I love these 'intro' things. So many people willing to offer up snippets of there lives, so trustingly...(that came off sounding slightly psychopathic for some reason) Myself, I'm a cartoonist, making a living working at an ISP in rural Ontario. Actually in the town that is "the most perfect example of suburban/rural community in Canada" (I still remember this from school.) Have a fantasy that I one day lose my sight and have to discover my hidden musical talent that I've been to lazy to cultivate for the last 29 years. Constantly aspire to the level of confidence and happiness I felt when I was 10. Have also had a disturbing ongoing 'fantasy' (or nightmare I guess) that our entire civilization is on the verge of being destroyed by some terrible disaster. I suspect this has something to do with sept 11th, but also suspect that it's a very real possiblity.
Currently listening to a mixed bag of stuff that I've downloaded, including Wire, Nina Simone, Jackie Wilson, Tim Buckley, Air, Rufus Wainwright and I actually quite enjoy the new Depeche Mode, which I downloaded for my sister. Favourite album? Maybe "Here My Dear" mainly for the first 5 minutes, which always, without fail, makes me cry. I think it's a deeply profound album. When I do I get a chance to put on music I often listen to Cosmic Slop online, which has just the right mix of funkiness, obscurity and wierdness on which I thrive.
Okay, enuf sharing.
