I like rock. Not the pop-punk or nu-metal sludge that gets unceremoniously and unfortunately lumped in with 'rock' these days.

The Rolling Stones, The Black Keys, Powderfinger, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Audioslave, Razorlight, Franz Ferdinand, The Stone Roses, Tom Waits (not really rock, I know), Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Zwan, The Who, The Datsuns, Jeff Buckley, The John Butler Trio, The Lemonheads, The Living End, The Mars Volta, Mother Love Bone, Pixies, Primal Scream, Smashing Pumpkins...
