Hey oppo, what genre of music do you guys and gals tend to gravitate towards? For that sake of argument, there are no wrong answers, as its a matter of opinion, but they surely might be some weird and interesting ones.

Personally, I tend to enjoy punk rock, folk punk, metal, death metal, and melodic metal.

How about you guys?

Metal, classic rock, classical, piano pop.

Nightwish is fave, gonna see them live for the first time in March. O.O

My wife asks me the same question when she looks through my collection of music. “Now which of these do you like?”

The blursing of having grown up in the house of a music teacher.

Listening to the Beatles today, but it can be anywhere from Megadeath to modern Pop, country and some, very limited rap and rhythm.

Given my druthers, it’s mostly 90s alternative, but even then it’s the indie labels from that era.

Basically I enjoy a good beat and quasi-originality. (I realize most pop songs have some form of pachelbel in it)

But really, punk (Celtic punk for the win!), alternative, metal (I accidentally fell asleep to Lamb of God once), I dunno.

I tend to listen to different stuff during different times of the year. Summer I listen to outlaw/old school country and winter is 90's hip hop. Over the whole year I will listen to classic rock. When I am driving to work or wherever by myself I will listen to Podcasts.

I’m a metal guy too and tend to gravitate towards the stuff on the heavier, fuzzier end (stoner metal like High on Fire or Electric Wizard or Samsara Blues Experiment) but honestly I dig any music that you can tell the artists are pouring their heart and soul into, be it Stevie Ray Vaughan or Immortal or The Devil’s Blood or Townes Van Zandt.

Anything with interesting guitar, some days it’s blues, some days it’s technical death metal. Was raised on punk and thrash metal though.

I have a CD signed by FiF, I knew a guy who helped them with studio work.

I think by definition Ska has to be taken at a Band-by-Band basis. The labels didn’t know what to do with it, so they just published every band that came in and could shit out an album.

RBF is a go to for me there. I have the W’s too. Wow, i haven’t heard them in forever.

Exactly. For me, I love a good melody, especially if it's so catchy it's like a punch to the face. I love it when musicians take time to make the song unique. Unless it's punk, where the aggression counts as a melody, :).

I play classical trumpet as a profession, but listening to classical music bores me for the most part. I listen to a whole range of things, though. I like modern folk stuff like Kate Rusby, John Doyle and Sarah Jarosz. I like Imogen Heap very much, but I grew up listening to 60s and 70s rock, so Led Zeppelin, Robert Plant (his first two solo efforts are fantastic), CSN(Y), Pink Floyd, Steely Dan, Uriah Heep, Buffalo Springfield. And I’m a sucker for just about anything from the 80s. It all depends on the mood I’m in.

My parents listen to contemporary Christian and hymns growing up. Hymns are good, but contemporary bores me to death. I listen to Christian music still, but just in the aforementioned categories; punk, folk punk, metal, :).

I have both of the W’s albums. I actually like them more that FIF, because it’s so different and unique. I’m a big Christian music fan, but the contemporary stuff is boring to me, it’s not interesting musically, at least to me. Another favorite, although metalcore, is The Ongoing Concept, because it’s so different.

Generally, metal, industrial, and electropop on occasion. More specifically: prog (Tool), death metal (Amon Amarth), Deathcore (Heaven Shall Burn), trash, both new and old (big 4, Trivium, etc.), metalcore (Killswitch, etc.), Industrial (Ministry, KMFDM, NIN, etc.).

I'll honestly listen to most anything other than pop music and pop country.

You’ll have to excuse me, I normally live under a rock and only come out to breath. I don’t know much about pop culture or anything, I usually don't care long enough to learn. :)

It’s so varied. Classic rock is the one I listen to the most, but I love jazz, classical, some rap/hip-hop, some pop, progressive rock, and all sorts of other rocks.

I was never into really angry metal music (you know, the kind where they just scream into the mic and I can’t understand anything) or really bland, monotonous rap/hip-hop. I’ll find myself enjoying most music that has something interesting melodically or rhythmically - this is why a lot of rap is so boring to me, since it’s an elementary bass beat with monotonous rap on top.

The one genre which I have most trouble with is country. I can't name a single country artist which I enjoy.

Primarily sub genres of electronica. Trance, ambient stuff like that.

I also like alternative and 80s pop.

I didn’t really either until I found ones that I liked. I would recommend comedy ones like, WTF with marc maron, adam corolla show, foreally show (the older episodes), Bill burr, and the Joe Rogan podcast is pretty good. WTF has a kickass interview with Keith Richards that is definitely worth a listen.

I’m pretty open, but I can’t stand modern pop music, or anything with Autotune because I believe it makes people dumber. I generally select jazz or funk (in many forms), or prog bluegrass if it’s up to me, but I could just as easily pop in Pink Floyd, Johnny Cash, Primus, The Roots, or a hundred other artists.

WiscoProud > zeontestpilot 02/10/2016 at 15:02

Ha my mom wasn’t happy when she heard the Marilyn Manson “sweet dreams” cover I had, even though I’m pretty sure it was clean.

I like Indie and trip-hop type music, although I have a huge mix of stuff on my phone.

I have a varied taste too, I just gravitate toward certain genres. I don’t mind sitting down to some amazing bluegrass.

I actually got into metal because of the catchy riffs. And I do prefer the screaming, only because those styles seem to have more unique guitar work.

Contemporary christian nowadays is basically just crappy pop. I heard from someone with ties to the industry that most big christian radio stations won’t play songs they think aren’t “uplifting” enough, so there’s a huge lack of diversity going on.

Conversely, the Christmas Eve service at my grandparents’ tiny church in rural North Carolina consisted of some guy ripping off folky acoustic guitar renditions of hymns, and I thought it was pretty sweet.

Honestly, I enjoy a bit of everything. It`s not so much the genre for me, but the specific tune, be that tune pop, metal , or classical. My playlist is just random songs from random artists.

Mostly electronic music. Not any specific kind, I like breaks, tech house, complextro, D&B, trance, elecro-pop... as long as it’s good music really.

And I also listen to indie rock - shamelessly love Bright Eyes.

Hip hops like Atmosphere, Del, RJD2, etc.

Really just no (pop) Country or mainstreamy Rap.

So true, ugh. Even in Christian music, there are a lot of ‘happy go lucky, hallelujah God’ songs’ which has its place, but life is full of daily struggles and I love to hear songs about surpassing them. For example, Son of Shame by Flatfoot 56 is amazing, purely because the guys mindset holds him back. I can fully relate to that.

I’ve been playing in my church’s worship band lately, playing bass with a punk feeling. I'm slowing making the changes.....

One one hand, I like a lot of the modern alt-rock stuff that I listened to growing up, like the Strokes, White Stripes, Coldplay, Switchfoot, Franz Ferdinand, etc.

I’m also into early classic rocky and folky stuff from the 60s and 70s. So like Clapton, the Beatles, Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, CSN, Simon and Garfunkel, early Fleetwood Mac, etc. I’m also really into old blues, mostly electric stuff like the Paul Butterfield Blues band, John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers and a lot of the stuff that was coming out of Chicago in the 50s/60s. And I also like a lot of other random stuff I haven’t mentioned, for example my strange affinity for Pitbull.

That’s what bothers me about many kinds of metal - I love the melodic guitar work. You’re right in that a lot of the bands I’ve heard with that kind of screaming vocals tend to have really sweet guitar riffs, but the screaming alone is enough to put me off of it entirely. Kind of like how I’d probably enjoy a lot more modern music if the really obvious auto-tuning wasn’t so popular. I know it’s frequently used, but now it doesn’t seem to be a problem if your vocals end up sounding very heavily and obviously auto-tuned - I really don’t like it in the majority of songs.

It always brings me back to that Grandpa Simpson quote about what "it" is and that "it" changes, and one day you just find "it" scary and weird.

Most forms of metal, punk (old school punk got me into music originally) heavier rock, classic rock, occasionally pop punk if I’m in the mood. Even heavier drum n bass/ metal crossovers from time to time. I also listen to lighter stuff if I like it, really depends on my mood, I just likes what I likes.

I’m not a fan of rap for many reasons - subject matter being at the top of the list.

I’ve often said that mainstream country and mainstream rap are the same thing, just packaged differently. They both center around where someone talking about what they have, what they like, and what they are going to do.

That’s the thing with festivals you’re always choosing between stuff. I missed Trivium at download 2014 for that reason. Seeing killswitch at this years download and seeing trivium in a small town hall down the road from here. Trivium in a small venue should be fun.

That’s one reason I’m not crazy for solo artists, I want what I hear on the album to be what I see at a show.

Personally, it irks me when they have 3 guitar parts when there are only 2 guitarists. Same for vocals, I want an honest voice, what I'd hear at a show.

Techno is what everyone called any kind of electronic music before everyone started calling it EDM.

The truth is that Techno is hardly even a sub-genre of electronic music anymore. When I think of Techno I think of music like Underworld (Born Slippy).

Nowadays the genre is so broken up into little sub-genres, Techno doesn’t really describe any particular kind of music, except that it is music primarily made with drum machines, samplers, and synthesizers.

I love metal bands at small (>1000 seat) venues. I used to see a ton of bands at the Barrymore theater in Madison, WI from 99-01. Machine head, disturbed, Danzig, etc. KSE is great live. Unfortunately, I've only been able to see them once though.

Lofi hip hop beats, some ambient beats and stuff, typically rap without lyrics, progressive metal/rock, which I guess covers a wide variety of metal and rock, like instrumental, heavy stuff, jazzier more melodic stuff, etc.

I believe those rap lyrics need a psycho -analysis.

I like b*tches, yo - well, he obviously isn’t referring to woman, because anyone who’s refers to women as b*tches should be crotched-punched repeatedly. So he likes female dogs. Not sure why, but ok.

I got my nine, bro - not sure what my nine is, but let’s go ahead and assume he really meant I got nine. So he has 9 female dogs. Obviously not a dog breeder, as he has no male. Unless he’s talking to a male dog. He is talking to a male of some species, hence the bro part.

Gonna cap your a** - not sure what he’s trying to say here. It’s either trying to lodge a bullet in my rear, or taking a shot at a donkey. I think it’s that donkey one though, since this song already has some animal Themes going on, which is pretty neat.

And stuff that hoe - again, no decent man would call a women a hoe. Obviously that guy is talking about farming equipment here. Though I am a bit worried about him stuffing the hoe, because it sounds like he’s using it wrong.

There you go, those lyrics are talking about a man who clearly doesn’t understand dog breeding, as he only has 9 female dogs and no male. He is also shooting at donkeys for no apparent reason, but I guess that's probe my explained elsewhere in the song. He also doesn't understand simple farm equipment, so he's most likely a city boy.

The Japanese really know how to do epic video game music; these tunes really stick to my memory and the right tunes can make boss battles seem even more perilous than they may actually be. Even in the days of 8- and 16-bit gaming, soundtracks were on point (think of Mario, Zelda, Final Fantasy).

Even now where there's a lot more space to make real soundtracks, they still do well. Super Mario 3D World has some of the most pleasant music I've ever heard in a Mario game - the first level of the first world is such a fantastic intro to a great game.

I used to think the same way; regardless of your feelings about the man, Kanye West’s My Dark Twisted Fantasy is a great album to try out. There’s a couple of tracks on there that aren’t really my thing, but this is full of great rhythms and melodies (relative to the rest of the genre, anyway) and is the first rap album I got really into after getting out of my classic rock safe-zone. My problem was that so much rap is monotonous but this gave me new perspective, despite the fact that a few songs do have that monotonous formula.

Not saying that you will definitely enjoy it, but I think this is a very special album in this genre, and I believe it will be looked back upon in decades as a prime example of what the genre can be.

I was always super meticulous about covering my tracks, but my younger brother for some reason just doesn’t give a crap. Also, I was good at keeping my mouth shut, but he always talked back to my parents (still does, even though he’s 18).

I did so many things that went unnoticed because I either took the time to cover my tracks, let my brother incriminate himself, or because my parents just assumed I was a good kid and he was a troublemaker.

I worked for a decade in a music venue so it’s more about bands than just genres for me. But I’m also a punk/alternakid from the 90s so I’m a fan of a lot of different things.

Thrash metal,

ska (traditional and neo-traditional bands are my favorites) I’m going to see the slackers for about the 15th time in March.

By extension, rocksteady and reggae.

Punk rock - especially with intelligent lyrics. The Clash and Bad Religion are probably my favorite punk rock bands. Followed closely by Rancid and NoFX

Folk punk - Frank Turner, Billy Bragg, Brian Fallon, and Dustin Kensrue are favorites.

The sub genre I kind of like to call “Post-Emo for Grownups.” Like Alkaline Trio, Hot Water Music, Face to Face, etc

Assorted other bands. Like I enjoy Flogging Molly, the Zydepunks, Gogol Bordello, and others but mainly because I love the high energy shows.

I debated asking for bands, about the responses would of been so varied, with answers of bands I've never heard of. I figured a genre would be more informative, and generic.

I’ll be seeing disturbed soon too, they’re guna be at download. But yeah I think smaller venues tend to be more fun (provided the acoustics aren’t awful.)

I’m pretty big on the post rock. It’s not music for every occasion, but some of it is impossible to not like and I don’t understand how so many people don’t even know what it is. It has a pretty large following amongst those who do know it.

Other than that, usually anything that’s complicated enough that I feel I get something new out of it if I keep listening. And Taylor Swift lol.

Haha, there's that one artist who doesn't quite mesh with everything else you listen to, but you enjoy it anyways, right? :).

Damn right :P Mainly her early stuff, it was really honest and written by here. These days all kinds of producers over produce everything she does...

I saw Disturbed about 5 times during those years when they were touring for their first and second album. Since they're from Chicago, they came through frequently. I loved those shows. System of a Down was very good too.
