I'm happy to see that the Greatest Band of All Time is the only rock band I can recall ever mentioned in a top-level LessWrong post. I thought rationalists just sort of listened only to Great Works like Bach or Mozart, but I guess I was wrong. Clearly lukeprog used his skills as a rationalist to rationally deduce the band with the greatest talent, creativity, and artistic impact of the last thirty years and then decided to put a reference to them in this post :)
If you check out Media posts, you'll see that LWers like a range of music. It wouldn't surprise me too much if they tend to like contemporary classical better than classical classical.
I like a specific subset of classical classical, but I suspect not at all typical.
