For the poll, Rock, simply because most of my music could be considered that. I would say pretty much all of it applies to me. As long as the music moves me/ inspires me in some way, I'll listen to it. I really can't understand hating a genre. I get hating certain artists or songs, but I've found at least one song in each genre that I like (even, sadly, country....). That said, I listen to a whole lot of 80s hair metal, 90s alt. rock, and a decent amount of metal. Current music doesn't really do anything for me, sadly. There are a few exceptions, but I'm mostly sticking with bands that survived from the 80s/90s. For an idea of how varied this is, I've got a bunch of Duran Duran (go 80s) CDs next to all my Dream Theater (go 80s/90s/00s prog. metal) CDs. Lots of Tool and lots of Train.
OMG like TM revolution what an awesome japanese band. As for the rest J-pop metal and indie a little of the techno. Mainly metal though
Metal. Power and progressive predominantly, then thrash and melodic death, then core. Electro. Aussie Hip Hop. Jazz and Latin and funk and **** like that for my drummings sake. etc etc
Aussie hip hop... Hilltop Hoods (Adelaiders, too ) Nosebleed Section When you get there, see also The Hard Road. If you want any other examples, check out Pegz and/or Funkoars.
That's actually pretty cool! Hehe, I love how I sound so surprised...sorry bout that. Thanks for the link! =P
It's ok - we're not usually known for our Hip Hop I would have linked to the dudes that sang about "a two dollar bag of hip hop fresh from the local fish n' chip shop", but I can't for the life of me remember who actually sang it!
Yeah ill listen to anything except like stupid dance and r&b, i can appreciate proper dance music like the chemical brothers but terrible dj's is my pet hate. Metal mostly though
Oh man I absolutely love screamo music, but not rap and such because it's so repetitive (and im not racist cuz i luvs me some Killswitch Engage!) like "Yo yo i sell drugs and like that booty all in my face" (No offense ) i don't really like songs like that but beyond some amusement i dont listen to rap and or hip-hop, although i dress baggy (lulz the irony!) I like bands like: Underoath Saosin Killswitch <-- not screamo, i think metalcore Blessthefall As Cities Burn and a bit of Mozart Season
Hilltop Hoods (www.myspace.com/hilltophoods) Bliss N Eso (one of my personal faves) (/blissneso) Funk Oars (not sure about theirs might be different) Drapht (/drapht) Downsyde (/downsyde) etc etc Its all good stuff for the most part. Everyone knows that lyric. No one knows who sung it.
