Merushi said: Valikiyro said: Unlike the fake shit the guy above me listens to. What do you mean? Isn't he just listing his favourite genres? What's wrong with those? You don't know much about music do you? Well, I guess I should fill you in a few things "Merushi". People well most people in general, don't like it when mainstream society zombify's your favorite genres and turn it into something it was against in the first place... Emotive Hardcore was suppose to be forever underground not turn into just mainstream bullshit for hipster kids who don't even give a fuck about the real roots of the genre or keeping it real and true. Nowadays its just a marketing scheme for the big industry's who target the youth with their overpriced, over edited, taste less, bullshit.... Now okay, I see how he just merely flirted with the word by just throwing it out there and I would sincerity apologize if he came back and started talking about Rites of Spring, Hot Cross, Indian Summer, Funeral Diner, Age Sixteen, Love lost but not forgotten, or anything related to that sorts then yes that would make me a foolish judgmental troll who jumps the gun when anyone mentions the word "Emo" but trust me that won't happen because more then often people know nothing about this stuff so yeah sorry if I seem a bit harsh and critical about this stuff but its just because I'm very passionate about my music and I just like things to be more justified then they already are. |

I don't like rap, R&B, pop or techno. x.x Just anime related or all sorts? If all sorts then I would be very interested to hear about some of your favorite bands because I myself listen to quite a bit of Japanese music and would like to hear about some of your favorite bands and what not. |

| In fact I've got no favourite genre. Just listen to songs where lyrics are in harmony with music. So there are pop-punk/punk-rock, rock, alternative rock, country, rap, gothic rock, rock'n'roll, OST and classical music in my playlist. Maybe some pop tracks but not metal. It's not for me although my friend's trying to make me listen to such songs. |

Do you mean screamz? or scramz cuz Idk what that means sorry If your talking about screamz, I like Underoath, Korn, the almost, 30 seconds to Mars, MCR, Paramore, Flyleaf, but i think theres more |

| "If your talking about screamz, I like Underoath, Korn, the almost, 30 seconds to Mars, MCR, Paramore, Flyleaf, but i think theres more" None of these are skramz/screamo. |

Oh my bad lol, Idk I always labeled them as rock and some as screamo, I used to be really into like 3 years ago but my taste of music has totally went 360 |

| Electronic music that is played mainstream can be extremely annoying, but you just should seek out for it! Schiller and ATB are awesome, for example. Personally, I love shoegaze, rapcore and nu metal most of all. But I acccept and enjoy all kinds of music in general, though usually I disapprove of mainstream pop and r'n'b. |
| We have to keep our dreams alive. Something to look forward to. |
| I see a few other mentions of folk, but mostly in regards to the metal subgenre, which saddens me a bit.. Mueti said: Of course I'm just saying that I've never heard any ska that I liked - sorry if you took it the wrong way. ;) I felt this too until I heard The Specials. They're still the only ska I've enjoyed so far, though. |
 |
| Post-hardcore, metal, some alternative, visual kei and oshere kei. I also find J-pop fun to listen to. :) |
| I'm addicted to J-music,rock and metal. :) |
 |
| i really like all of the above xD but i guess i listen to trance the most atm getting lost in the sounds is the best way to pass time x] |
| I go for melodic metal though i do listen to and get to listen plenty of other genres. |
  |
| I mainly listen to Classic Rock, but branching from that, I also like (in no particular order): - Progressive Rock - Post-Rock - Jazz - Glam Rock - Big Band/Swing/Standards - "Stripped" music (Acoustic/Classical Guitar) - Blues Rock - Classical - Disney (animated) and other Soundtrack music - Electronic music, but to an extent. I'm also up for anything experimental. |

| I chose other. I love listening to classicals/instrumentals, especially pieces by Claude Debussy (Arabesque, Clair de Lune) and Joe Hisaishi (Futatabi from Spirited Away, Legend of Ashitaka from Princess Mononoke). I also really enjoy listening to classic rock (The Beatles, Queen, Billy Joel) and J music (UVERworld, Abingdon Boys School, Asian Kung Fu Generation). I can still appreciate/enjoy music from other genres (just maybe not as much/often as when listening to my fav genres). If you check my profile page, you can see a list of my 25 fav songs, which are pretty diverse in genres (some classical, alternative, rap, etc) |

| I care about single bands, singers, and musicians, more than genres and labels, but I'll try to make a list of tags anyway. Love: Rock, Indie, British, Hard Rock, New Wave, Alternative, Electronic, Industrial, EBM, Grunge, Punk, Nu Metal, Blues, Synthpop, Trance, Goa, Digital Hardcore, Drum and Bass. Hate: Rap, Hip Hop, Emo, Screamo, R&B, Latin-American, Reggae, Ska, Metal, Gothic, House, Experimental, Opera. Depends: J-music, Country, Pop, Techno, Dance, Jazz, Classical. Voted for Alternative. |

| Didn't know whether to vote Pop or Other...so I just went with Other and that being Korean Pop XD |
| grunge and alternative rock |
| I like pop, but overall I consider Dance music to be my favorite. So I selected Other. |
 |
| Overall, I would have to say rock, but specifically post-rock like Explosions in the Sky since it's a bit of a different genre. Post-rock is great because it's instrumental but still melodic and powerful, so it can be great when doing work as well since it doesn't have lyrics to distract you. I also like progressive rock and metal, as well as so-called "alternative rock," so my tastes also include Pink Floyd, Between the Buried and Me, and Radiohead. Edit: And of course anime OSTs too :) |

Hell yeah, post-rock is excellent. Lately I have to say my favourites have been folk/ indie-rock, and experimental electronica, although like others have said I listen to artists from tons of different genres, don't really have an all time favourite per say. |

| Most into reggae but i listen to what i like :) |
 |
| I'm really into any experimental music, but if I had to choose genres, I'd say Post-rock, sludge metal, stoner metal and rock, math rock, progressive rock, jazz fusion, drone music, doomgaze, dark ambient, electro-acoustics, breakcore, IDM and modern classical. |
 |
| According to the last.fm tag cloud, I seem to be listening to mainly psychedelic rock and classical music. Though the biggest tag is "experimental", which I think is kinda generic, so I'll leave it out. Post-rock is nice and all, but not exactly my cup of tea. I prefer other types of hyphen-rock, such as space rock, desert rock, stoner rock, plus the almighty god Prog. I also like sludge and doom to a certain extent. I hate modern classical, grindcore and contemporary alternative-emo-gross-american-rock. I find dubstep funny and hip hop cool, but i'm not a fan of either. |

| hiphop>>>> |
 |
| Hip-hop is so underrated on this site. |
|
| Hardstyle, Drum & Bass (Neurofunk & Liquid), and occasionally Metal |
| To me its rock as I like the sound and message and while its loosing its popularity, I will still support it. |
| Shoegaze, hip hop, rock, trip hop, jazz, alternative rock, progressive rock and electronic. I can probably figure out more genres. The only genre I don't fancy as much is metal. But, of course, there is some great albums in metal. At this minute I would say jazz. |
| Metal |
 |
| I listen to just about everything, but my preferred is electronic music, specifically Hard NRG/Freeform. Artists such as Betwixt&Between, Alek Szahala, GULD, Nomic, Le Dos-on, and the like. I'm also an amateur DJ. |
| currently listening to experimental, electronic, ambient, with some listening in sludge, post-metal, dub-step, progressive metal, post-punk, psychedelic and other genres, these change with my mood |
| No one favorite but I do listen to more Post-Rock, Shoegaze, and Ambient than other genres. |
| everything but most of all pop.. ^_^ |
| Pop>>Rock |
| Death metal |
| I've been switching up favorites a lot lately but there's always those genres I can go back to no matter what mood I'm in and those are: Hip Hop Instrumental Hip Hop Deep House Bass House Liquid Drum & bass Dirty Dubstep Melbourne Bounce |
 |
| I pretty much love everything. I don't have a specific genre I listen to but If I had to pick I guess electronic or some good hip hop funk or just funk. As for more non specific genres I enjoy ambient, chillstep, future house, progressive house, normal house, future bass, hip hop synth mixes, liquid drum & bass and mostly chill & relax songs Some examples: Every now and then I put on some vaporwave: But mostly I just open up a channel like XKito,MrSuicideSheep,ENM,Monstercat and just let the playlist do the magic Also sorry for posting so many examples >.< |
