I usually don't have music on while I work, but if I do have something on, it's often a podcast, or something like Buddha Bar.

Thats the one! LOL! Yes, when I 1st became a customer of theirs they were always closed as well. they keep weird times. I had to get used to that. Go between 7-10 pm and you're sure to find them open. I think their official timings are 10 am to 1 pm, then 6 pm to 12 midnight. seriously.

HIM hold a bitter sweet place in my heart. I do enjoy their music, not one of my favorite bands, but every now and then you wake up and know its gonna be a HIM day. Pretending by HIM reminds me of a person I would so love to forget.

BUt come now, lyrics... if thats what you want than surely AFI is much better than HIM, yeah?

True, very nice collection.
I really like Alice In Chains & Megadeth (A Tout Le Monde is amazing).

HIM has NICE music, but I don't like to listening to them for theological reasons, if you get my drift.
Gundam is kewl.
Ironically, I used to work for a company that sold lots of Gundam merchandise, yet I own none of it.
I guess they didn't get any of the good stuff.

Does that shop have merchandise?

I've never heard any Swedish Metal.
I've tried Rammstein, but I wasn't to keen on the not understanding bit.

Seems like we have more in common than just Macs (not like that isn't enough)

I'll try In Flames and Kalmah.

Gundam is a nice Anime, when of the more common ones that did well in the west.
"Mobile Suit Gundam Wing" (2000)
