Music.

[Niki]

What kind of music does everyone like? The kind of music a person listens to tells a lot about them, plus I've been curious lately.

[Fish]

Punk or whatever its called..

[Rob]

This is a survey so I moved it.

I listen to women.

[Niki]

Haha, okay.

[Oinohtna]

I listen to a lot of stuff. My top favorite genres of music have to be rock, rap/hip hop, and techno. I'll listen to pretty much anything once, except for country. Thats the only type of music I can't stand, besides punk/emo.

[Savvy]

Classic rock and some metal bands. I have started listening to classical too for some reason.

[SmileEmptySoul]

I'm going to guess and say you are 12-14 years old, Am I right?
I went through the same music phase.

Right now I'm listening to two types of music. Half and half.
90's rap when I'm high, because its slow and easy to understand. Very trance-like.

And heavy metal, Shit like Carcass( i know its old, they still rock)
Amon amarth , soilwork, COB, bathory, God forbid (I'll never get tired of them)
Dream theater, and a lil of trivium.

I don't think I'll ever go as hardcore as goatwhore or cannibal corpse because I really cant get into it as much as I listen.

[Kenneh]

Goregrind, Grindcore, Melodeath.

[xJesusx]

Lots of punk, no British stuff though, I can't stand that, ska and metal, especially Scandinavian. Although I have to admit that I also do enjoy my 80's glam rock.

[Mirrorman]

Punk, metal(Different kinds), metalcore etc.

[gtrst7711]

I listen to just about anything except for rap and country. Lately I've been listening to a lot of Blue October, Finger Eleven, Haste the Day, and as always, Everclear.

[Jiggz]

I like punk, but more specifically, ska and ska punk. Bands like Mad Caddies for instance.

I also listen to underground hip hop. Aesop Rock, Cannibal Ox, Necro, El-P and so on.

[Nurfen]

Metal from Slipknot to Epica and a few more.
I loathe hip-hop, pop and pretty much the shit they play on radio, like that worthless umbrella song.

[deadchild90]

I'll lisen to anything except country and rap/hip-hop

[Met]

I listen to just about anything. No country though. Obviously by my sig I love Breaking Benjamin. Before my hard drive took a nose dive I had about 1500-1600 songs of all kinds of music

Which obviously makes me a violent, evil, rapemongering freak :indiff:

I like all sorts of shit, from Bloc Party to Sham 69, from Sonic Youth to Grandmaster Flash.
Oi! and British Punk rock the shit best though.

I pretty much have a favorite band in every genre except for punk, but I like ambient (Such as Sigur Rós) and progressive death metal (Such as Opeth, Meshuggah, Novembre, etc) the most.

[PshSam]

Alt/indie/electronic/some rap.

[John Travolta]

Everything from Frank Sinatra to The Who.

[Raxo]

Mostly rap and whatever else sounds good to me from The Doors to Cafe Tacuba (spanish rock).

[PshSam]

RaxoZellet, what rap would you recommend me? Right now i only listen to like 3-6 Mafia.

[Raxo]

I'd recommend artists like Nas, Immortal Technique, Atmosphere, Blackalicious, MF Doom, Ice Cube and Jedi Mind Tricks. Those are all pretty good but it really depends on what you like your rap to be about.

There's plenty more that I listen to but those are jus some of my favorites.
By the way I think 3-6 Mafia is shit. So if you want to take my opinion be wary that these artists are very different from 3-6 Mafia.

[green rubber bands]

I go usually go Ska, Indie, Punk ( not the new "pop-punk", more like the Misfits and Bad Religion), and Bob Dylan.

[junglebunny]

I'd recommend artists like Nas, Immortal Technique, Atmosphere, Blackalicious, MF Doom, Ice Cube and Jedi Mind Tricks. Those are all pretty good but it really depends on what you like your rap to be about.
You should try on some Aesop Rock, Outerspace, Tech N9ne, 7L & Esoteric, and Army of The Pharaohs.

[this-username-sucks]

i like metal like Slayer, Metallica, Iron Maiden and Death.

[PshSam]

I just got a couple cd's of UGK i think I'm liking it pretty well

[Raxo]

Some Classified , Sage Francis, Swollen Members, Eyedea & Abilities, Royce Da 5'9, Jurassic 5, Cage, Apathy, and Louis Logic are also good.

[Mr. Pink]

I listen to shitty indie bands that no one likes such as Metric, Neutral Milk Hotel, Modest Mouse, Wolf Parade, The Essex Green, and many others. I also enjoy the musical styling of They Might Be Giants, The White Stripes, and The Arcade Fire.

The greatest song ever written is Notorious by Duran Duran. It shows much commitment to Sparkle Motion.

Arcade fire is pretty good. I have their album Alexander. If you like Neutral Milk Hotel check out the band Built To Spill. They have similar styles.

I thought The Arcade Fire only had two albums, Funeral and Neon Bible. What's this Alexander? And I've placed a hold on my local libraries website for three Built to Spill albums. Thanks for the suggestion.

[StrikeTwelve]

I listen to about everything, just have a look at what artists I have in my WMP at the moment. I lost a good deal of Iron Maiden songs and techno in my last reformat though. ;'(

I guess I have a thing for indie. :D

[Oberlin]

Power metal, and basically any rock that isn't cookie-cutter shit (Nickelback, Fall Out Boy)

[nut-cruncher1039]

Well, I do enjoy rock of most types. From First to Last, Green Day, My Chemical Romance, Bullet for my Valentine, Stone Sour, the Clash, Fall Out Boy, Slipknot, Drowning Pool, The Used, etc.
But my favourite band of all time is Nirvana. I know a lot of people who think that Nirvana had no talent, and their songs are just full of ****. But I don't agree... they influenced music a lot, for better or for worse.

[Snake Face]

Sorry about that the name of the band is The Alexander. I don't know why I thought that was the name of one of their albums. I wasn't even listening to the Alexander either.

The Kaiser Chiefs are fantastic.

[StrikeTwelve]

The Kaiser Chiefs are fantastic.

Why yes, they are and I applaud your understanding of this matter. Shall we proceed to a quiet area where we may manhandle eachother whilst discussing said subject? :clint:

Edit: In a totally non homosexual manner.

[sparta47]

Metal/Alt/Ska/Regge/Rap. Stuff like The Human Abstract, All That Remains, Sparta, At the Drive in, Streetlight Manifesto, Big D & the Kids Table, of course Bob Marley and, WU-TANG!!

[Fodniethan]

Pretty much anything really. Mainly rock, punk, indie, some ska and some rap. I like music which makes me happy, which is why my favourite band at the moment is Elliot Minor. I doubt they'll be my favourite for long, though.

The White Stripes are from here.
I love The Arcade Fire and Modest Mouse.

[Commodity]

I like hardcore/post-hardcore punk, like Rise Against, Black Flag, and Minor Threat.
Also, I like power metal, thrash metal, whatever Tool is, metalcore (Atreyu, As I Lay Dying), and some classic rock.

[Displeased Owl]

It varies so much. Depends on my state of mind I guess, but I'll switch around from Black metal, Grunge, old-school Death metal, solo guitarists (Vai, Eric Johnson, Timmons, Petrucci etc), old-school Rock, to random shit like Hindi/Urdu/Pashtun music. It's all over the place.

[Niki]

At the moment, my favourite band is Scary Kids Scaring Kids.

[Killer Carebear]

Alternative, ska, rock, prog, prog metal, metal, jazz, funk.

[[MCD]MaDDY]

Metal (ALL TYPES) rock (ALL bar Punk and Emo) some techno, some trance, classical and pink floyd.
I say pink floyd by itself because they are, in my eyes, a music genre of their own

[Jimothy]

I listen to lots of different shit... I get into rap, RnB, rock, classical, pop-rock, some hardcore, some alternative metal... But I usually listen to metal, black metal or metalcore.

[Rakala]

I like almost all types of music, except for most country. My faves are classic rock, alternative, classical, heavy metal...

[WTF]

I like ALL kinds of metal and goth(favourite genders =D), some punk, two emo groups (MCR & The Used), salsa, merengue, some classical, trova.
:ahe: I won't put up a list because it would be the size of the universe and no one would read it.

[afroman8675]

im open to pretty much anything but country or religion, except johnny cash cuz he's just a bad ass. But mostly underground rap, and stuff like that

MCR and The Used aren't emo.

[-ƒƒ-]

Very very wide range.

Classical: Olivier Messiaen, Aaron Copland, Erik Satie, Claude Debussy, Jean Langlais, Naji Hakim, György Ligeti, César Franck, Edvard Grieg, Arvo Pärt...
Dance/trance: Gigi D'Agostino (my favourite), Robert Miles, ATB, Scooter, Trance Opera, sometimes Tiësto, Faithless...
Metal/hardrock: Nightwish, Rammstein.
Hip hop: Brainpower, certainly no English.
Jazz: not my style, except Candy Dulfer.
Trip hop: Jay-Jay Johanson.
Jump: don't like it, except Jeckyll & Hyde.
Flemish and Italian country songs.
R&B: only Black Eyed Peas in their early days, the rest, I'm sorry...
I like Sarah Brightman too, but cannot put her in any category.
Tango/electro: Gotan Project.
Belgian group Sweet Coffee, somewhat between smooth jazz and dance.

[BornSlippy]

Im going through abit of a trip-hop phase atm
So bands/artists imma listening too atm are: DJ Shadow, TRICKY <3 , Portishead, Massive attack, Sneaker pimps, Zero 7 and Thievery Corporation

But i listen to other artists likeeee: Chemical brothers, Muse, Groove armada, Keane, Gym class heroes, Junkie XL, Daft punk, Immortal technique, Talib kweli, The avalanches, Basement Jaxx, PENDULUM <3, Aphex twin, Mark ronson and Faithless

[Lilmoose17]

hooray jazz, blues, latin-jazz, and ska! im a jazz musician so...yea
also classic rock

[Candystripe]

I really listen to mostly everything....lots of classical, classic rock, jazz, indie, ska, acoustic, rock, techno-y, alternative, hiphop and rap, oldies stuff, gospel, country, R&B, metal..
the only kind of music i really don't like is that shit called "screamo". Who decided that would be a good idea? Other than that, I'm down for most things put to my ear.

[Tempest]

Rap, Techno/Trance/Club, Acoustic, Classical, Ska are the main vices, just about every other music type exists in my playlist somewhere though.

[hzac]

Metal/trance. I go to metal concerts and I rave.

Best lifestyle in my opinion.

[CnGy]

Sometimes I look at people and laugh at how they don't like to be open when it comes to their mind.

As if learning something would harm it.

[Metal Angel]

Do I even need to say it anymore?

[Derelict]

I opened this thread thinking, "Metal" then realized that I'm not actually all the in love with the genre. I'm exactly like Fiend Guy with my taste. I don't like to be trapped in the shackles of just one type of music, I try to hear everything and take in every kind of sound. Jazz, Punk, "Emo", Metal, Classical, Rock, "Pop", I pretty much listen to a myriad bands, artists, and musicians from all of it.

[HipHipHooray]

I'm open to a lot of different genres.
From In Flames to Creedence Clearwater Revival. Muse to Mindless Self Indulgence. Although, currently, I am listening to a lot of metal.

[RocketSoldier]

I'm a progressive nut.

I like Tool, Dream Theater, Symphony X, Rush, Yes, that kinda shit.

[Metal Angel]

A Prog Snob, huh?

Well, nothing wrong with that. In theory.

[HipHipHooray]

I quite like a lot of progressive, such as Tool and Dream Theater...
But I hope to god you're not one of those prog snobs who think that cause their music is "smarter" and has odd time signatures, it's better.

Edit: Damn you for using the term before me Andro. :fmita:

[CnGy]

Being particular to a genre simply means that you're personality is shallower than other more cultured individuals, imo.

[HipHipHooray]

I don't have a problem with people sticking to one genre, only when they try to tell you their genre is better than yours.

[CnGy]

But it's like only eating a certain type of food.

Like, having breakfast for not only breakfast, but lunch, dinner, brunch, snack, etc.

Iunno that'd get old to me.

[GSOM]

Punk,Psychobilly,RockABilly,Bluegrass,Post-Punk,Post-Hardcore,Ska,Reggae,Hardcore Punk/Hardcore

[SlowCheetah]

I mainly like rock. Stuff like the chili peppers, queens of the stone age, foo fighters etc.


The new foo fighters cd is awesome btw.

[Raxo]

The new foo fighters cd is awesome btw.

I disagree about that new CD. It wasn't spectacular or anything new and downright disappointing to me. It sounds watered down but ,eh, that's just my opinion.

[GSOM]

It seemed that with every release The Foo Fighters just got progressively worse. I'm not saying I don't like them, but its not really my type of music. I guess I'd prefer Queens of the Stone Age, Scream, and Nirvana if I wanted to hear a band with Dave Grohl in it.

[Cocktapus]

I like industrial metal, especially German, like Rammstein and Eisbrecher.
Breakbeats as well.

[MissFuckYouToo]

Industrial, techno, death metal, black metal, punk, electronica, etc.

[Hats of!]

Progressive Rock, Art Rock, Avant-Garde, Experimental.

[Ziggy St. Valentine]

I like most types of rock & metal...there are a few genres which I try & stay as far away from as possible though, like hardcore & emo...too unoriginal for my taste, no offence to anyone who likes them.
My favourite 2 genres are glam & sleaze rock...bands such as:

Buckcherry
Motley Crue
Vains Of Jenna
Guns 'n' Roses
Babylon Bombs
Velvet Revolver
Skid Row
KISS...etc etc

I'm also a big fan of old school metal:
Iron Maiden
Judas Priest
Metallica
Slayer
Black Sabbath
Motorhead

Also, who doesn't like straight up rock n roll like the Rolling Stones & Aerosmith?

Rock on.

[themegafather]

I've been listening to Indie alot these days...
Mostly the band called Cursive.

[Syzrael]

I'm into all kinds of metal, although my favorite is Black metal. I guess Power is next, and then Goregrind.

[ConanKudo]

I like most kinds of Rock and some metal, but I'm more into the first. Well, actually I just hear anything I like. It's kinda hard to define my music taste - maybe you could say, if there are some good guitar parts in a song, i like it. When I'm supposed to tell what I like about a song, it's always the guitars. Anyway, check my last.fm-profile if you want to: http://www.lastfm.de/user/Wurst_Freddi
And yes, there are even some hip hop acts. Even that's not really my music taste, but there are always exceptions.

[StrikeTwelve]

A stonerfriend recently sent me an album of Mogwai, and I must say it is the shit.

[meTalmessiah]

Anything but emo. Guns N' Roses, Lamb of God, Tupac Shakur, Daughtry, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Amon Amarth, Soulja Boi, Joe Satriani, Three Days Grace... Lot of variety. I like rock cuz it's catchy, metal cuz it's extreme and meaningful, shred cuz it's what I wanna sound like, rap/r&b cuz you can dance to it, techno cuz it's got the best bass beat (lolliteration), country cuz it's, well, it's country. The only thing I can't stand listening to is people screaming and whining about how their life sucks over mediocre at best guitar and shit melodies. No offense, fans of emo, just not for me.

[Metal Angel]

Translations: Emos, get it over with and kill yourself please.

[physicalgraffiti]

Right now, I listen to a lot of Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Who, Queen, and AC/DC.

[244ryan]

Metal, Dance (MGMT kind of thing), Punk (The Ramones kind of thing).
Thats about it.
