Tegan and Sara. I have loved them for about 8 years. Last concert with my wife, I was one of about 15% of the crowd that was male. Heterosexual males? I may have been one of about ten people in the room of about 500.
Saw them live last night, since they opened for fun. (No, literally for fun.) The merch tent cracked me up--there were a couple of shirts with both of them on it, but for most only one was on there so it seemed like you needed to declare a favorite. I would have a hard time saying one or the other.
I like Sara a little better than Tegan, but think they sound best together. They both have solo work as well.

I partied a lot with these two before they became famous.
But on my last walk I put on a mix of Depeche Mode's greatest hits. And on my way into work this morning my alternative metal channel on Rhapsody. (Korn, Killswitch Engage, Disturbed, etc.)
Constant diet of Black Stone Cherry lately. I just discovered them and am head-over-heels.
Thank you @KillaHertz for helping me discover a new band! I'm digging it. Any particular album you recommend? I just started playing the first one I found on Spotify.
@SugarandSpice Happy to help! I've been listening to Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea, but the songs Please Come In and Blind Man are two of my favorites, off of Folklore and Superstition.

I'm really all over the map with my music, but my new Song to Get Me Fired Up to Do Manly Things is Pacific Rim soundtrack - particularly the main theme.
Echo and the Bunnymen, Porcupine LP last night, today it's a first listen to Au Revoir Simone's new LP, Let the Night Win (electro pop from NYC) and this afternoon it'll be some First Aid Kit (Swedish Country/Folk)
Every once in a while I run into the Arctic Rocks show on Sirius and there's usually a gem of a tune or group in there. Always surprises me.

Ran into one old song in particular that I'm obsessed with : Summertime by My Chemical Romance. Funny how these things can slip by us in the first place, and then be such a revelation later.
Kudos to Spotify for providing a free means to listen through back catalogs!

Seems like I'm a bit of a throwback for music (and preference in cars). Most of the music I'm into comes from the late 60's early 70's. Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, CCR.
Actually, this got me thinking about a Bob Seger song I was listening to on my way up to school Sunday night. "Like a Rock". I don't know how many times I've heard it, but this was the first time I really took notice to the lyrics. Seems like it could be one of us Nice Guys (before the Red Pill), looking back on their youth that was filled with an Alpha-strong frame.
Today working out: one of my favorites, Helmet's Meantime, first 4 tracks. Also some tracks from Boris' Pink, because who doesn't like Black Sabbath-esque Japanese punk-metal?
