Films and Music I Enjoy

I tried to conjure up a favorites list for both my favorite films and favorite bands and artist, but I couldn’t make up a list for each that I thought best represented my taste. So I’ve decided to do away with favorites list and just go with bands and artist I listen to regularly and films I’ve seen and I enjoyed. My range of taste in both mediums spreads far and wide, high and low from prog-rock to punk and from horror to anime.
