I will!
Metallica for a dark, thoughtful mood
Dragonforce for fun, energetic, silly moods
Mick Gordon’s DOOM soundtrack when working out
Avenged Sevenfold for a carefree, fuck the world attitude
Blind Guardian when I’m looking for high fantasy, “take me away” mood
Sabaton when I want some motivation for work
Rhapsody of Fire for when I’m cleaning alone and want to get into some classical feeling stuff
Killswitch Engage when I’m feeling edgy
Korpiklaani when I’m wanting to go on a run
Parkway Drive when I’m angry or sad
There’s so many more than this, and much of these have overlap with specific songs instead of general artists, but this gets the point across, I think
A lot of these are anger or high energy. What about when you're hungover and it's early in the morning? I went to a metal festival once and was woken up by Skindred - Nobody at about 8am. I don't want metal in the morning! I want something safe and slow. Give me Journey or Snow Patrol.
What about some Doom like Khemmis, Neurosis, Windhand, Monolord? Low energy like Devin Townsend's "Ocean Machine" Melodic and melancholic like Leprous Or progressive like Wheel
