Well, I was just curious to see what everyone's favorite genre of music is or at least what kind of genres do you like/listen to. You can post your genres and give examples like what bands you like from those certain genres and such.

Personally I have somewhat of a vast liking of genres. Here's my list of genres I like:

Some Classical, some Jazz, a little bit of Bluegrass, Big Band music from the Swing Era, some Orchestra music, Oldies from the Rat Pack through some of the 80's here in America, a little bit of Metal (not much though, sorry), Rock, Experimental, Alternative, some Ambient, Post-Hardcore, some Screamo (too much of it and it gets way annoying), Techno, House, Trance, all types of Christian music, and that's basically it from what I can think of.

Here's a few bands that I like from just a few of the genres:

60's music: Elvis, Beatles, Beach Boys, Bee Gees, Johnny Cash, and probably many more.

Alternative: Anberlin, Falling Up

Post-Hardcore: Emery (favorite Post-Hardcore band ever), Bullet For My Valentine (haven't listened to much of them, but the songs I have heard they sound great)

Screamo: Underoath (I suppose, lol)

House: Daft Punk

Trance: BassHunter

Anyways, post what genres you like and possibly bands you like from those certain genres if you want to.

I enjoy music that inspires me, that relaxes me, that makes me dance, that makes me shit my pants.

Same artists as Mark :3

Techno and Trance mainly. Some metal and rock. And very little rap, only rap is w/e songs my friend thinks I may like (once in like 3 months tbh).

Artists uhhh Basshunter, some Cascada (wierd right, but they got some crazy bass when they want it), Welcome to the Club by DJ Manian in particular, Paragonx9 from NewGrounds, whatever the hell Pandora gives me lol. I have some more but can't bother looking em up

Artists uhhh Bas

Well, I'm going to go out there and say I can't stand Heavy/Death Metal. Random screaming with repetitive movements just don't do it for me no matter how skilled the musicians may be.

I'm personally into Drum & Bass, Reggae, Generic Rock (yeah, yeah, I know) and what my iPod likes to call Alternative.

Yes, I like coldplay.
[moves to china]

I cba to correct your genres lol.



Umm i like a lot of music..most variants of "extreme metal" i.e. black etc

Listen to quite a lot of Trance/EDM...like a lot of synth based atmospheric stuff, tbh i like something from most genres, yet still manage to not listen to the same music as most people I know irl.


Current most listened to band wold have to be Opeth or Ulver i guess

Um. Wow. Well. Er.

Classical (Tchaikovsky, Chopin, Beethoven, Mozart, Dvorak, Bizet, Wagner, Vivaldi), Hip hop (J5, Nas, Wu Tang, RZA, Ghostface Killa, Christ Bearer, DMZ, Busta Rhymes, Sugarhill, Run DMC), Brit hop (The Streets, Beat Stevie), Classic Punk (Sex Pistols, Stranglers, The Clash, Buzzcocks, The Jam) Prog Rock (Genesis, Genesis, Genesis) Rock (Ohgod list) Garage (Mostly UK Garage) Grime (Roll Deep, Dizzee Rascal, Wiley, Tynchy Stryder, Bashy, Lethal Bizzle) Rap (the good kind, not half a dollar, Akala),House (Too many artists do good house, so I tend to just stick to mixes), Electro (DJ Acroama [/shameless plug]), Dance (As with house), Trance (As with house, altough Shameless plug, even if Dobson's a house DJ, Dubstep (Rusko, DJ Acroama, Skream, Benga), Drum N Bass (Andy C, Adam F, Roni Size, Pendulum, Goldie), Heavy Metal (Although not really any other types), Britpop (Blur, Oasis, Jarvis Cocker), Jungle (Dilinja, Adam F, DJ Fresh) , Jazz/Blues (Nina Simone), Ska (Goldfinger, Reel Big Fish), the more clubby-pop (Cascada etc.) and the old good vocalists from the middle of the last century, such as Frank & Nancy Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr. etc..

Yeahhh.

hardcore, hardstyle

Here's a few bandsdj's* that I like from just a few of the genres:

hardcore, evil activities / neophyte.

hardstyle, headhunterz / technoboy

Flemish and Scottish bagpipe, no real preference for any artist. It's basically all I listen to .

Because Raggae isnt exactly what you described death or heavy metal as now is it. Dont make attepmts at insulting other people's genres. This isnt a debate about musical tastes because those just lead to Red vs Blue sides flames at eachother.


woot it worked

I've been enjoying Ambient, Techno and Electronic stuff lately. Especially songs with jawesome bass lines

One of my Favorite songs lately is:

I also like this song, especially the bassline:

I am glad that you like Royksopp Spiah, it's pretty decent taste for a 14 year old. I remember when I was your age and my older sister introduced me to Royksopp.

Skaaa.

Broad? You have five sub genres of metal there, and then techno.

Good lord, you metalheads keep wanting to have HUEG RANEG OF MUSAK, but you don't. Face it. You don't. But that's not a bad thing at all. You just like metal. Nothing wrong with that.

I listen to Indie and Classic Rock, and that's it. Some various other bands which are other genres, but that's it.

I listen to what people my local radio station play when I'm out doing shit irl. If I'm choosing what I listen to or at my computer its either metal or electronic. Metalfags dont list everything that they can or do listen to on a regular basis, only the shit that they really like. Which ours happen to be spread across various sub genres of metal (makes sense that someone liking metal likes shit from other parts of metal now dont it?).

Also Trees, just wait until Alk come in here lol he can shit all over the typical metalhead/genre accusations. He is the definition of someone who listens to Phoronidaing everything. You all dont even know r[]fl.

And of course you're not generalising at all.

umad?

LMFAO.

I listen to music.

GG.






























Before you Nemerteas take the one up on me...

I also listen to sounds!
































Furthermore,

I also listen to soundwaves Nemertea.


















































And yes I do listen to molecules reverberating. Bones in my ears making music.

Phoronida oath.

You know what I listen to?

Sounds, moPhoronidaa

Check out my music taste: http://www.last.fm/user/Catchowmein


etc.

Skindred live was one of the best things I've ever seen. They bust out pressure and I got lamped in the face about three times.

Yes.


It was to prove a point that "metalheads" don't just listen to metal, and can have very eclectic tastes.

Nobody ever restricted someones clique-classification to one genre/one specific type of music. Metalheads usually regard to, well, metal though

Previous post is true

Oh.

Not quite the same thing Henry.

Saying that someone doesn't have a broad taste in music isn't the same as saying they only listen to one specific genre. More ties in with liking a lot of the same sounds. Like how I love thumping basslines in as much as possible. I still listen to a lot of other stuff, but I always wonder how it would sound with moar bass.

I'm failing to see any point in this argument.

What is this argument you are speaking of.

I pretty much listen to ska,surf,hardcore punk,reggae,some 90s rap,and some otha stuffs. I'd say my favorite bands or artists would be Sublime,Snoop Dogg,Toots and The Maytals,The Ziggens,The Bad Brains,Bob Marley,The Toyes,The Butthole Surfers,Operation Ivy,Half Pint,Johnny Cash,Z-Ro,and DJ Screw.

Oh this seems like a topic for me.
