A Taste:

Alice In Chains, KoRn, Pantera

Static-X frontman Wayne Static has got quite the house cleaning soundtrack. “My wife and I put music on while we clean the house, and we’ve been playing KoRn, Alice In Chains and Nine Inch Nails the most,” he laughs with a big smile. “Those are all of the standbys, and they’ve been getting me ready for the Sno-Core tour.”

It’s no surprise that Wayne displays an equal affinity for Pantera’s groove-driven metallic sludge and Ministry’s speed-freak electro death stomp. Wayne has patented his own style of percussive evil disco, and it’s been perfected on Static-X’s latest offering, Cult of Static.

Right before Wayne finished cleaning and packing for the band’s co-headlining run on Sno-Core, he gave ARTISTdirect.com an exclusive peek at his iTunes. Check out what Wayne Static is spinning below.

Wayne Static’s Playlist:

1. KoRn

“It seems like I listen to a lot of the same stuff.”

2. Alice In Chains

3. Nine Inch Nails

4. Deftones

5. Ministry

6. Audioslave

7. Pantera

“I always throw Pantera on once in awhile. I don’t really listen to too much new stuff. Everything I listen to is either from ten years ago or older [Laughs].”
