Ask your roommate to turn it down. Politely explain that you like some kinds of music, but that you don't like the Beatles, and that you sometimes prefer silence. If you need to study or do other quiet things in the room sometimes (like sleep?!?), say that as well. Try to be cool about it, but firmly tell him/her that you both have to share the room and that you both need to make compromises.
You shouldn't be driven out of your own dorm room. You also shouldn't have to buy him/her headphones, etc in order to keep from going crazy. However, your roomie is entitled to play loud music once in a while. (I especially recommend Friday afternoons after class!) If it gets really bad, perhaps you can compare schedules, and he/she can blast it when you're in class.
If all else fails, and if it's really causing a problem for you, get your RA / hall leader / campus police involved. If they won't intervene, perhaps you can switch rooms.

You need to play some stuff of your own. Maybe Motor Head, Over Kill, Anthrax, L.A. Guns.
Rotten to the core...... ahahaha Rotten to the core! After blasting that song with shred metal riffs all over the place, that will be a real pick up it is so fast you feel like you have to do things and you get more done it is an exciter type of music. Don't listen to it if you have ADHD this will boost the hyper activity! lol
I don't mean start a loudness fight I mean, you play your music, heavy metal stuff like you like whatever and he has his, you two can work something together. It is no good to have it only one sided if he can listen to his you should be able to listen to yours too.

Present him or her with a really good headset, and say that you can appreciate that s/he loves music and has a right to listen to it, but that you are not able to study or concentrate on anything else. Invite him/her to enjoy the music - with the headset.
