you probably don't like these guys, but System of a Down's new album is coming out May 17! .

I can't wait that long though . These guys are one of the few new bands that I think are great, and I buy every album as soon as it comes out.

It's hard to describe their style, but they are heavy. But they also have eastern european influences, and weird tempo changes which I think are great. They have a different sound than every other band out there.

Arabic Pop: Amr Diab, Yuri Mrdake, Sabah, Warda.

Bongo Flava: Cool James (though ignore the stuff he did with Black Teacher, which isn't Bongo Flava at all), Xplastaz, Daz Nundaz Family.

Filmi: Asha Bholse, Kishore Kumar, Lata Mangeshkar are the classic trio of playback singers.
