To finish the ticky-box poll: I also listen in the shower. I keep a cd player in my bathroom, as a matter of fact.
I am pathetically backwards in my musical tates, listening to very little that was released after the mid-90s. Half the stuff recc'd above I've never even heard of - but I tend to like roots rock and hard guitar stuff and have almost completely eshewed Chicks-With-Pianos and anything remotely "alternative."
*If you'd like some Ramones, Ramones Mania is a fine compilation.
*Since I love Springsteen as much as I do, I absoutely think you should check out his stuff. The Rising is the best of his more recent work; The River is a fine example of his earlier work. Please avoid the Greatest Hits disc - it's all surface and no depth.
*U2 - The Joshua Tree
*Barenaked Ladies - Gordon
And that's all I've got that hasn't already been mentioned, 'cause I'm leaving out the harder stuff.
