Speaking of Dave Matthews Band, I came back to Crash, fun stuff actually.

Yeah, Crash is the only DMB studio album I listen to at all, and that's very rare. I spin some live stuff rarely, too.

Mike Shinoda is a good rapper

By the standards of nu-metal, yes.

Overall, he pales in comparison to the likes of Dr. Dre and Jay-Z, let alone Nas, Talib Kweli, or Mos Def.

Probably still better than Kanye as a rapper, but Kanye's production skills are on another level entirely. Possibly another planet.

I don't agree with the kanye bit, while his producing is by far the best around he is very good on his own as a rapper (however, if he's on a song he didn't produce I'm not really into it)

For outside summer listening, give me Kid Creole & The Coconuts or give me death.

King Diamond is ideal outside summer music....graveyards are outside right?

King Diamond is ideal music regardless of season.

+1, though I do think he's pretty horrible.

UO: Regardless of my utter love of King Diamond, I just can't get behind Mercyful Fate as much as I think I should...

Hey,he's better than Durst(although Fred's rhymes have improved and became a mixture of intentionally funny and cringe-worthy).
