Hello @Overcast. I didn't mention many artists because the list is long, but since you asked I might as well give a decent sample:

Rock (including all sub-genres and Heavy Metal) - AC/DC, Aerosmith, Alice Cooper, Alice In Chains (I love this band), Alter Bridge, The Beatles, Bee Gees, Black Sabbath, Bob Dylan, Dead Kennedys, Deep Purple, David Bowie, The Doors (love this one as well), Dire Straits (and this one), Eagles, Eric Clapton, Foo Fighters (my favourite modern band), Guns N' Roses, Iggy Pop, Iron Maiden (my favourite metal band), Jimi Hendrix, John Lennon, Judas Priest, Kings Of Leon, KISS, Kyuss, Led Zeppelin, Lynard Skinard, Megadeth, Metallica, The Misfits, Motley Crue, Motorhead, Muse, Nirvana, Oasis, Ozzy Osbourne, Pearl Jam, Pink Floyd, Queen, Queens Of The Stone Age (another gold modern band), Radiohead, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Ramones, The Rolling Stones, Scorpions, Sex Pistols, Slayer, Slipknot, Soundgarden, System Of A Down, U2, Van Halen, Velvet Underground, The Who, Yes, 30 Seconds To Mars

Guitarists in particular - Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix, Zakk wylde and John Frusciante

Drummers - David Grohl and John Bonham

Bass players - Whoever plays for Muse

Singers - I don't have a favourite, but I love the voice of Layne Staley from Alice In Chains. I care more about instrumentals than lyrics and singing.

Pop music - Abba, Michael Jackson, Bryan Adams (pop-rock), Tina Turner, Adele

Hip Hop - Tupac, NWA, Gang Starr, Easy-E, Eminem (not all albums), Nas, Lupe Fiasco, Immortal Technique, Dr Dre, some Snoop Dogg

Reggae - I've only listened to Bob Marley but I enjoyed it a lot. It's one of the genres I want to explore

Electronic - I like listening to it when I'm at nightclubs but other than that it's not my thing. It's not bad though and I have nothing against it. DJ Tiesto is pretty cool

Classical - Not adding anything because I'm still exploring the genre.

- This was done using my itunes list so it's in alphabetical order and it's certainly far from complete.
