personally i like rap how bout you?





:eek: :mp5:

classical, opera(without the singing)

possibly big band and mariachi. 'cept i don't like the singing

I like some rap (Eminem, DMX, Tupac...) and some Hard Rock/Metal (Metalica, System of a Down..).

metal and rap....maybe a little faithless and daft punk

Classical and opera (especially La Boheme and Rienzi)

A fast steady rhythm, plenty of texture, and maybe some vocals.
This means that I like techno, gothic, symphonic metal, and quite a bunch of other songs that fit my needs.
I don't listen to genre's because of the genre.

I love all music except Twangy country. Otherwise, I like it all. I'm very ecclectic when it comes to music.

Almost anything metal.

I like rock and metal (as my nation's name makes obvious), and a few country songs aren't too bad. I'm not really into electronic music, but I like Kraftwerk. I've never had much of a taste for rap.

If I had to pick a favourite kind of music, it'd be German music. :D

hong kong hard core all the way babyyy!!!
the local hardcore bands are really good here. :fluffle:
http://www.shepherdstheweak.com if you're interested?

I love eurobeat, J-pop, opera yes the singing even in japanese, classic rock, and everything cept rap or country!

Hard rock/psyc rock/prog rock.

Pink Floyd, Led Zep, Doors, Who, Jimi, ACDC, Greenday, Nirvana, ozzy (what lil ive heard, i like)

Metal, punk, insustrial, goth, rock'n'roll...most anything with a good, aggressive beat...

Rammstein is considered partly electronic.
Anyway, speaking of German music: :eek: Evil (http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/B00008WD2R.03.LZZZZZZZ.jpg), evil (http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/B00000B4KQ.03.LZZZZZZZ.jpg), evil (http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/B0001BPR2O.03.LZZZZZZZ.jpg), evil (http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/B0006BLIZE.03.LZZZZZZZ.jpg)!

Rammstein is considered indie rock.

My favorite categories are rock, some pop, a whole lot of trance and techno...

Rammstein is considered indie rock.


Rammstein is also considered industrial metal, though they like to call themselves "tanzmetal". I prefer calling them industrial metal. It's more specific than saying indie rock.

I used to have a really narrow taste in music (rock, and metal), but now days if something has a funky beat and isnt too slow, or too country I probably like it, from Middle Eastern beladi, to slightly pop 'club remixes'.

It's quite good liking lots of music types, since it means at any one time there is more music I am likely to like. ;)

Underground Euro Alternative TranceTechElektro
(Echo Image, Apoptygma Berserk, VNV Nation, Beborn Beton, Deine Lakaien, T.O.Y. [AKA Evil's Toy], Wolfsheim, Cut.Rate.Box., :::Wumpscut:::, Funker Vogt, Rollergirl, Icon of Coil, etc.)

It really suks that I like this kind of music since it's practically impossible to get it here in the states without paying a fortune in shipping :( I personally can't stand the top 40 poop that's on the radio everywhere.

Various kinds of metal (my favourite being progressive), various kinds of rock, blues, latin-american, industrial, gothic, soul, jazz, classical, punk, funk, some pop (old and new), virtuoso stuff, disco music, acoustic guitar vocalists, experimental... I'll listen to most things.

Trance.

That is all for now.

Classic Southern Rock and Punk

Classic Southern Rock and Punk

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

Pretty much anything classed as rock, any rock genre really, with the exception of a few band, and the really heavy stuuf, although I do like a bit of really heavy stuff. Favourite bands are Led Zep, Black Sabbath, the Beatles, the Hives (so so so very good!), Metallica, SOAD, Althlete, Zutons.

I like to think I'm pretty open minded, I'll listen to anything, apart from rap, hip hop, dance, trance, manufactured pop, the fake r'n'b (Real rhthmn(sp?) and Blues is far better)

On a side note...How are Rammstein classed as Indie rock? Indie is more Oasis, Stone Roses, Kaiser Chiefs, Killers etc...Rammstein are Industrial if anything, not that I care too much about labels and genres, just that seemed rather unusual.

:) I like most forms of music. I'm not crazy on rap,or real country as in Dolly Parton. I don't like heavy metal or techno. I really like RnB tho

:) I like ...rap,or real country as in Dolly Parton...I...like heavy metal or techno. I really (don't) like RnB tho

YEAH! Me too! (except for the rap or country part) Crazy... :)

Rock, metal, punk & decent orchestral (Beethoven's 5th/ Ride of the Valkyries etc)

Metallica/Nirvana/Rammstein rule!

Metallica/Nirvana/Rammstein rule!

"Flight of the Valkyries". lol. rofl. lol noob. rofl.

Everything from the Doors to the Dead Kennedys to Nirvana to the Cure to Refused and much more.

Anything but Rap, Hip-Hop and R&B. Those just put me in a bad mood.

"Flight of the Valkyries". lol. rofl. lol noob. rofl.
Up thine! I saw it called ride of the valkyries so there!

most metal and rock (both old and new), psychaedelia (my frends dad has the most massive collection!), a bit of drum & bass, and a little classical

but not pop... or (most) "indie"

Rammstein is considered indie rock.

:confused: :confused:
and who exactly says that? nobody i've ever heard for sure :p

but not pop... or (most) "indie"

Ever notice how real indie (read=independent label music) never calls itself "indie"...and how a lot of "indie" bands are usually major-label acts?

its the latter crap i don't like - the stuff that is apparently, by grace of the media, "indie"
i don't mind in the least real indie (though i couldn't actually name any "real indie" bands, though a friend of mine at uni is really quite into his indipendent/unsigned indie bands so i hear a fair bit...)

Well, if you take the broad definition of "independent label" (ie. not under Epic, Sony, etc...), you probably listen to a lot of "indie" stuff without realising it. Indie doesn't make sense as a genre.

Gotta support the greatest band ever to go from real indie, to major label, back to real indie : Less Than Jake!!!!

Anyone else remember when Geffin records was considered 'indie?'

I'm guessing that would be before Sonic Youth were signed to them.

too true :p

Ive gotta say that my favorite type of music would have to be metal/rock. Bands like Dream Theater and GNR.

Personal Favorite at the moment is Alkaline Trio. All you English should go see them they're touring the UK now, I believe.

Uncle Tupelo
Wilco
Gram Parsons
Neil Young
Drive by Truckers :headbang: and other country/rock/punk

Old school punk, rockabilly, psychobilly, old school rock and roll, swing/big band jazz, a little bebop jazz, blues (particularly Texas blues), Johnny Cash, and Oingo Boingo.

DJ Tiesto has got to be one of the best DJs I've heard in a long time. My only exposure to Ferry Corsten was a very, very nice much more trancey vesion of Apoptygma Berserk's "Kathy's Song". I happen to love that song. I'm not sure what you can get in your area, but if pure trance really moves you try Lasgo and/or Ian Van Dahl.

Heavy Metal all the way. Metallica is sexual.

Rock as a whole, really, though my favorite subgenre is Punk Rock. I'm actually listening to the Dead Kennedys right now.

...And for the last time: "Indie" is NOT a genre, people. It's a label used to denote bands that are on independent record labels.

Best genre? Of course I only listen to Pure Aryan Black Metal

Heavy Metal
Nu-Metal
Opera-Metal
Punk Rock
Hardhouse
Trance and Dance

Yes i have varied tastes :p

70's and 60's rock, some metal, jazz (contemporary, not all that acid jazz stuff), Blues, Hard Blues, Latin Rock, a bit of Classical (from driving in my grandma's car :rolleyes: ), and some electronica stuff as well (pretty interesting)!

I love Led Zeppelin, AC DC, Pink Floyd, Miles Davis, Van Morrison, Charles Mingus, The Clash, Black Sabbath, Santana, Audioslave, The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Niel Young, and, ofcourse, Ja Rule (just kidding :p )

...And for the last time: "Indie" is NOT a genre, people. It's a label used to denote bands that are on independent record labels.

It was...but it's become a genre. If you say "indie" to people they'll know what kinda music you're talking about.

Metal

I like some system of a down, nine inch nails and rock

It was...but it's become a genre. If you say "indie" to people they'll know what kinda music you're talking about.

Heh. Doesn't "Alternative rock" cut it anymore?

Heh. Doesn't "Alternative rock" cut it anymore?

I like that, but I like so many kinds of music I don't know what to say, no Rap please. Country....not so much either.

Rammstein, Enya, Adiemus, FF, 'The Black Mages' and about everything that an AMV has been done to. Don't forget Queen and the other rock music, I love those to.

The Type of music I like is Hip Hop and Rap

Metal, some Industrial, some Country, Punk, Bluegrass, some Folk, some Adult Contemporary (Suzane Vega, Paul Simon, James Taylor), Classic Rock, and very little Rap.

^ i never thought u as a rap liker even a little bit.

I like a few Eminem songs, some Busta Rhymes, a little Tribe called Quest, some Biggie, and a little Fifty Cent when I'm in the right mood.

That's what I was thinking.

Yay. Now I know what genre to class them as (I love all three of them and others along that line).

Thats cool you like any 9 inch nails or disturbed?

I think most modern music is crap. I like Johnny Cash, but not Tim McGraw. I like the Ramones, but not Green Day. I like Sugar Hill Gang, but not Sean Combs. I like The Kinks, but not The Killers. Most of the modern music I like is local, like DeVotchka and Dressy Bessy. Oh, and I like Ben Folds Five, but not Ben Folds.

I like the Ramones, but not Green Day.

Same. Green Day's got a few good songs, but most are pretty bland.

Heh. Doesn't "Alternative rock" cut it anymore?
"Alternative rock" I'd say would be bands such as Muse....indie is more whiney and crap (sorry... :p ) eg Travis, Coldplay...

Heh, either way, when you go to a shop and buy the cd it all comes under "rock" anyway.

Thats cool you like any 9 inch nails or disturbed?
I'm a huge NIN fan. I like "Down with the Sickness" by Disturbed, but haven't heard much else from them. I would think they have a pretty wild mosh pit at their shows though.

Dude you should see their video for "liberate" they show one of their mosh pits

I don't watch EmptyV. They hardly ever show videos anymore and when they do it's mostly pop crap. The last video I watched was Goldie Looking Chain's "Your mother's got a Penis" at the Virgin UK record website.

Not that channel like try Yahoo music or www.disturbed1.com i think it has some vids on there

Goldie Looking Chain's "Your mother's got a Penis"

Now THAT's a song title!

I like "If you leave I'm gonna fuck your sister and your best friend" :cool:

I think most modern music is crap.

Personally, I don't think the overall quality of music has changed much. There was plenty of crap released during the 60's, 70's, and 80's too, and a lot of the good stuff went relatively unnoticed until well after their time. The only difference is that we don't have any super-bands and artists since Nirvana died.

"Alternative rock" I'd say would be bands such as Muse....indie is more whiney and crap (sorry... :p ) eg Travis, Coldplay...

Heh, either way, when you go to a shop and buy the cd it all comes under "rock" anyway.

Hmm. I didn't think Travis and Coldplay came under "indie". I thought it applied more to stuff like Franz Ferdinand...and..um, I saw a band live once that sucked...they were supposedly indie. I forget the name, but they were British. But anyway, see? "Indie" is like emo, nobody can really explain what it is. :p

And yeah, you're right...

Now THAT's a song title!
Great tune too. Lovely lyrics.
She's saving up her pennies hoping they'll turn into pounds
to get an operation switch her gender round
Well it's a shock to me and it's a shock to you
Your mother's got a beard sandals and a penis too.

Oh god, I know... All the hippie transe crap in the 60's, Disco (shudder, cringe, puke) in the 70's, and synth pop/muzac in the 80's (though there was plenty of good, listenable synth pop, most of it was trash). Please kill me...

Good stuff.

personally I like ska (mighty mighty boss tones, Big D) but I listen to metal, punk and big band

metal cradle of filth,marilyn manson,rammstein,dimmu borgir,system of a down,metallica,slayer,and some judas priest and other old school bands

I listen mainly to rock/metal/prog (Ayreon, Bon Jovi, Alice Cooper, Sonata Arctica, Black Sabbath, NIN, Iced Earth, Foo Fighers, Metallica etc etc)

I hate rap and hip hop (unless incorporated into some form of rock song, eg RATM ;) )

I hate all rap

I hate rap and hip hop (unless incorporated into some form of rock song, eg RATM ;) )

Hehehe. Word.


Actually, I like some rap. Cypress Hill, Public Enemy, NWA...just not the real "pop" stuff. Like Nelly, Snoop Dogg...etc...

It's rare that I ever listen to a band who gets a lot of radio play... Franz Ferdinand and the Killers are the exception. Otherwise, I listen to almost everything. Bjork, Tricky, Gorillaz, Daft Punk, Ted Leo and the Pharmicists, Joy Division, Fugazi, Interpol, Richard Hell and the Voidoids, The Hives, The Raveonettes, Razorlight, Rammstein...etc.

Know what i like? Quality music like this (http://www.knuthaugen.no/danseband/29ingelindqvists.jpg) .

Metal, and not the pseudo-crap you hear on the radio.

I saw a band live once that sucked...they were supposedly indie. I forget the name, but they were British..

AHA! The Futureheads. That was their name. Thanks for unintentionally reminding me. :p
