My user name is Fall inspired - one of their most famous tracks is Mr Pharmacist!
I forgot to put LCD Soundsystem on my list - a current new favourite of mine...

This is almost like asking what age you are plus what new /old stuff do you like
As a kid I was a huge Madness fan but I think that was more a whole culture than musical preference
Pink Floyd
Radiohead
Peter Gabriel
Nirvana
Kate Bush
David Byrne/Talkin Heads
Eminem
Nick Cave
Massive Attack
ELvis Costello
Waterboys
Muse
Plus I'll listen to almost anything from the 80s new age romantics and 90s Dance, Frank Sinatra and any of the ratpack .
And every so often I pull out the Irish stuff too Van Morrison , Dubliners , Christy Moore, Aslan, Thin Lizzy , Pogues, Cranberries, Hothouse Flowers, and U2
This is great on a Monday
only things missing are the 1 hit wonder songs which really resonate
