Majority of what I listened to while studying (and still listen to while working):

Death Cab
Postal Service
Pink Floyd
Jimmy Eat World
Weezer
Pinback (probably the best I've found for marathon sessions of focusing on my work)
A Perfect Circle
At The Drive-In/Mars Volta/Sparta
Tom Petty

Wow, this was pretty close to my list. Sub Blink for Jimmy Eat World, Guster for Weezer, David Gray for At the Drive-In and Incubus for A Perfect Circle. Boom!

This was a bait thread for slipknot lovers. You ppl are the worst. With that said, I forgot blink 182. Whatever their album was back in 03/04ish

Blink 182 never got better than letting Robert Smith sing with them.

Faves 2000-2004ish - 311, 2 Skinnee J's, The Urge, RATM, RHCP, Incubus, Sublime, Bob M., lots of rap.

Slipknot is light years better than any mainstream rock band you'll hear on KRock these days. You're all a bunch of vaginas

this a gem of a post. i mean, my goodness.

I listen to all of those bands, when i was in 5th grade. In no way am i exaggerating.

A shitload of rap and some red dirt country and some old country.

And I remember hearing My Morning Jacket on 91.9 and being blown away and trying to figure out who it was and not figuring it out until like two years later.

And you shouldn't listen to music when you study.

Anyone ever listen to Front 242? Late at night while at a sparkstation in the computer lab?

I was really into seeing Wilco and The Jayhawks at The Granada and Bottleneck.

Yes! None of those red dirt-ish guys EVER make it out to the West Coast, and it makes me sad.

Ragweed used to do a couple of shows a year in California if I'm not mistaken. I don't think Cody Canada's new band does, though.

I know Pat was in Seattle a few years back, but he may have scaled back. And Reckless Kelly was formed in Portland, but moved to Austin, so I don't know if they ever get back out there. Divide just got back together about a year and a half ago and have a limited schedule now around OK, KS, TX.

The Departed's "This Is Indian Land" is an interesting album. Kinda all over the place, IMO.

I forgot to throw in the non-red-dirt bands I listened to most often:

BNL
Counting Crows
Foo Fighters
Old 97's
Ryan Adams
Matchbox 20
U2
Sister Hazel

This is a good one. The Guest was playing in my house on a lot of spring 2003 afternoons.
