Ok, third attempt for this poll...
I have 26 options....Quote:
You can only add a poll to a thread within 5 minutes of posting the thread.
The second "Worldbeat (eg. Fela Kuti, Chieftains etc.)" should have been "Other ( specify) "
Moving around the text doesn't appear to work in the fields, since I made a mistake in order, hence the double selection.
Try changing your forum theme to Guild if different and attempt once more. The new structure still has some minor porblems, I think. You may try consulting the mods too..
Latin music *nod*
So the poll is up and running..
My vote goes to Modern Rock. Franz Ferdinand, RHCP, Offspring, Muse, U2, REM, Kent, Wallflowers and all alike..
However I have to state my love for the oldies and would like to vote for classical pop and jazz as well..
Give me a kiss to build a dream on
And my imagination will thrive upon my kiss
Oh sweetheart, I ask no more than this
A kiss to build a dream on
Louis "LEN's step-grandfather" Armstrong - A Kiss To Build A Dream On
:smitten:
Bluegrass and country :cowboy:
hard one.
Classic Rock, but Rammstein and Megaherz pwn also.
I'm a metalhead. Not that I don't listen to other music, but metal is primo. I'm curious as to why Crust or Grind didn't make the list, though.
Rock. Mainly Classic Rock, but I'm getting into some new bands like My Morning Jacket, Drive by Truckers and Widespread Panic too.
And I also like Blues, bluegrass, folk and other roots music.
Great poll though, I would group Rammstein and Korn with metal and industrial. For me ofcourse it had to be metal, mostly progressive, i.e Children of Bodom, Sonata Arctica, Rammstein, Kammelot, Iced Earth, Nightwish.
Since I gotta go with one, I'll go with Blues. Always has been my favorite, always will be. However, I also like pre-80's rock, especially 50's and 60's, i.e. Creedence Clearwater, the Beatles, early Floyd, Hendrix, Joplin.
Edit: come to think of it, Janis Joplin was more blues than rock. Jimi Hendrix did some really good blues, too.
.
GAH! There are two genres of music:
- Good
- Bad
I like/listen/make/write good music. :guitarist: :coffeenews: :singer: :vulcan:
.
I voted folk to be cool. But like Mouzafphaerre there's two kinds, good and bad.
"classical"
yknow, leaving out other sub-genres of rock while putting other sub-genres of rock sucks.
wheres the emo-screamo-hardcore options? bah. there not even an OTHER option.
Rap/Hip Hop
my fav music is dance... ecpecially trance ~:)
actually I like songs within all sorts of music.. at least almost all sorts. that's why I rarely buy music.. I only like certain songs.
:dizzy2: ?
'tis a wise comment. Down with pigeonholing!Quote:

Unlike classical which can go from a piano to a symphony orchestra, Brahm's Lullaby to Deis Irae.
old rock music like Floyd...Floyd and yet more Floyd :wink:
i am such a metalhead, heavy metal kicks ass
you forgot reggeaton:furious3:
melodic death metal.
In flames, Dark Tranquility, Soilwork and CoB as my favorites.
Scandinavians never surprise me ~DQuote:

I like rock and country. Glad to see another country fan. Strike or the south, (I'll call you Striker) have you listened to Eric Bogle? He's very good.Quote:

Reggaeton is that popular eh? We'll see if it's just a fad or it establishes itself. Trip-Hop used to be popular you know. For now, either vote for Latin or Dance.Quote:

You must have many friends if that is the only requirement ~;). And Lake Bodom is the best track on the first album.Quote:

New Age, because I always turn to Enya and Yanni for advice on my financial matters, love life, and personal fulfillment.
Trance: PvD, Tiesto, and corsten all the way.
~:cheers:
Trance would most definately be my second choice. The Cynic Project = luv
metal to the last bloody drop
Ok, my vote goes to classic rock, even though my favorite band is Metallica, with Offspring coming in second.....(Iron maiden 3rd ;))
Classic rock e.g Zepplein, Maiden etc just has no equal, i'm talking psycadelic guitar solos man!!!!
(w00t 800 posts!!)
I listen to music in the transition area between(heavy) rock and metal. Don`t know what to call it, so I go with this:

Not as many as you would think, most people over here are in to Rap, it pathetic, good metal like CoB is pertty much underground music here still.Quote:

12/05/05 Children of of Bodom in Tampa~:)
I see. Metal isn't so popular here either.Well Him is quite popular, but I don't think it is a metal.Quote:

Btw, here is some information about "real" Lake Bodom:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Bodom_murders
What the heck. Went for Indie Rock in the end, since that's the closest I could get to fitting in some of my favourite bands: Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Mogwai, Friends of Dean Martinez, Explosions in the Sky... but there's so much more that could easily fit in one of the other categories. Choosing a favourite music genre just doesn't do the music justice.
you write god music?Quote:

Rock (classic and modern) and other alternative music.
But if I really have to choose I'll go with Modern rock >80, because of the 90's really; I'm not a real 80's fan.
Well I hope your Right, where I live though it seems that way alot of the time and though don't seem to get the credit they desrve> Where ever you live that its different you are lucky.~;)Quote:

How long are we talking?Quote:

You are totally misunderstanding me and I am getting really confused> In all honesty I like metal in a way not being mainstream, but I still don't think metal get enough credit. What I was saying that most the bands I listen to and that Includes CoB Are pertty much underground in the US. I don't know about you but where I live I can never find them on Radio or TV. And I agree most mainstream meatl bands suck. But did'nt this al start with me saying that I thought CoB was Undergund in the US
Megaherz! Back when Alex still sang the vocals!Quote:
