Muiltiple selection would be nice...
guess so, but i guess it limits it to your complete fav music instead of about half the selection...Quote:

try it, seriously
Also, you left out psych-rock/blues/folk (all VERY different genres), Hard rock, progressive rock, space rock, soul, funk, jam-band, JAZZ, even BLUES...
Maybe you should just leave the poll off and ask the general question, "what's your favorite musical genre(s)?"
meh i just did the main ones, although i did mean to put the blues in...Quote:

Pink Floyd. Worthy of their own genre.
Symphonic, black and heavy metal; all three are good stuff. ~:thumb:
Bit of an Indie fan actually. Sorry to buck the trend.
Can't vote (would vote "Gah!" if I could). I have an equal love for alternative, jazz, indie, and classical. :sweatdrop:
ROCK ON!!! Some guy I used to work with used to go around the office on Fridays and yell "Whooo! It's Rock 'n' Roll Friday; get r done!"
lol, i voted drum and bass purely for the band pendulum lolQuote:

I'll say "alternative", but that's not a really good indicator, I like most music that isn't rap, really really heavy, or really really folksy country music.

:yes: :yes: :yes:
Why is there no "Gah!" option for those of use that don't like music? :furious3:
I DEMAND PUNK! :soapbox:Quote:

Went for dance in the end, feeling quite lonely in my 3,7%, could have easily been hardcore (which means hardstyle or hardhouse right ? just harder dance music ?) or rap i suppose is an option but i think my favourite music is quite poppy dance, though with the right situation i would prefer something a bit heavier (night out, some recreational drugs) and when im just chilling out having a smoke with my friends a bit of rap is enjoyable...
Hardcore music could in fact be very fast, racy metal. It goes great with Punk. There are two main genres, they are Melodic Hardcore and Hardcore PunkQuote:

Anyone ever listened to mathcore? Now that is some seriously weird stuff.
Be honest, you made half of those up.Quote:

I mainly listen to black, and progressive metal. Its the most creative, original and expressive music I can find.
Nope. All real music styles. :yes:Quote:

The distinctions are artificial though. I mean, each band could be it's own genre if you subdivide enough.Quote:

They did the Conan show in April, for the second time. He's being touted as "the prince of Americana," his style being popish folksy countryish rock (heh). Not normally a favorite genre of mine, but I like his stuff. He's travelling a tough road, off the beaten path of today's popular music.
I'm away from "home" now, and perhaps that's why the lyrics from one of the songs in particular appealed to me. It's titled "Shaken," and you can listen to it here if you want (load the site and it will start playing, followed by other tunes from his current album, Giving Up the Ghost). The part about friends also hits home. I miss Cali, and my so-called friends.
I was blue and walking down K Street Mall alone late at night back in 2003, just before I was forced to leave the old digs. I heard this music coming from a bar, and it was good. I stopped and listened outside, peering in through the window. The singer/guitarist was practically a kid, but he obviously has an "old soul." I was moved by what I heard; not much could move this heavy old stone at that time. Then, he was just another dream kitten scratching by; now, he's on the verge.
He's also fronting Phil Lesh's tribute to the Grateful Dead now. Curious to know what people here think about him. Probably not much, but he might appeal to a few. I find his stuff to be pretty real.
Sometimes. Not very often though.Quote:

That list isn't very accurate though. Led Zep is totally different from the rolling stones. Here's a more accurate version:Quote:

etc...
The only purpose of genre is so you can describe a band or a song to someone else, and that's only useful on a large scale (country, classical, rock, hip-hop).
I've spent too much time trapped in cars with people arguing about what kind of "metal" metallica is as opposed to slayer or some such nonsense...if you've heard a song by the band the genre is immaterial. Pet peeve of mine :wall:
I need to change my vote to drum and base after discovering pendulum :beam:
Queens of the Stone Age - Misfit Love is my favorite song......I don´t know what you´d call QOTSA....Alternative Rock? Stoner Rock?
you've only just discovered them? i can send u there album on msn if u like, or did i already?Quote:
