So...If you're a musician you probably have influences. No, you SHOULD have influences because if you didn't then how could you even have a passion for music much less, be a musician or even be on this site??!! So, getting that rambling part of the way, this is a thread where you can discuss artists that have inspired you to play music. You can even put excerpts or quotes of lyrics from your favorite songs if you wish and interpret what it means to you. Hell, you could also discuss some of your own songs that you've composed. So......... with all those options on your mind, go ahead and knock yourself out!

My band's main influences are Opeth, Deftones, A Perfect Circle, etc.
My Chemical Romance's early work (the stuff with a bit more screaming) was a bit inspiring too.
I'm also extremely into the Misfits' and the Doors' style. (:

I like Brahms and Debussy, and of more modern composers I look up to Nobuo Uematsu, Go Ichinose, and Shoji Meguro.
