Donnie Darko has one of, if not the, most beautiful scores i've ever heard. i seriously could just listen to it all day. what about you? do you have a favorite?
It's not cool, really? Because I love Nirvana. I like a few Soundgarden songs a lot, and the only thing I know about Mudhoney is that they were in the Chris Farley/David Spade movie Black Sheep.

Oh, I was once told I didn't really "understand" the grunge scene if I truly believed Nirvana's overhyped influence on music. WHATEVER, PRENTETIOUS SCENESTERS! I still like them a lot, even if I don't listen to them nearly as much as I did in my fourteen-year-old self's "no one understands my wounded soul like Kurt Cobain!! tears tears vomit!!!!" stage.
I kind of shifted from the 90's stuff (Nirvana, Hole, Garbage, Oasis) to the old school punk (Sex Pistols, The Clash, New York Dolls, etc), then to 60's rock (Joplin, Hendrix, the Stones, Pink Floyd), then to political hip hop (Talib Kweli, KRS-One, etc) and currently I have a mental boner for Ted Leo, Wolf Parade, Arctic Monkeys, Metric, Elvis Costello, Sam Cooke, and a ton of other random stuff. My taste is fickle and varied.
In a strange bit of amusing coincidence, on my way to the dentist, the radio was doing a "Survivor" thing where they pitted different genres together, and I was treated to half an hour of...yes, grunge. Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains.
I love Metric. Currently, I'm addicted to, let's see...M.I.A., OK Go, Sunny Day Real Estate, and Silversun Pickups. Fickle and varied taste is the best taste.
