Folk, in particular Bellowhead (who I recommend people to listen to.)

Rock, Hard Rock, Classical rock, Hip hop, Dance, Trance, Techno, Industrial, Metal, Death Metal, Pop, some Rap, Reggae and Classical. Dislike Country, Jazz, and most Punk.

Rock and Metal mostly, sometimes there is an odd song that i like from other types

Im naturally very picky on the music I listen too. I can't house my opinion on a genre or even tell you my favorite band, because I usually only like one or two of their songs.
what can be told with certainty is that I always despise rap, hip-hop and the like. my word of thumb is "If you can't experiance what the song is saying without noticing the lyrics, its not worth replaying."

I love Classical music.

That and a band called Nightwish,but only their old stuff.

And Daft Punk,they are really good.

Hip-Hop = Rap, they're the same thing.

I listen to the classics. N.W.A, Ice Cube, Eazy, Ren, Tupac, B.I.G, Big L, Rakim, Nas, Redman, Method Man, DMX.

I like some of the older stuff, KRS-ONE,Tupac and B.I.G, but most "recent " rap/hip hop bores the feth out of me..at it's best it's a watered down imitation of much better preformers and at it's worst it's a shopping list set to beats.

Mhm, the only Hip-Hop worth listening to is the old stuff. These new bs artists like Lil Wayne, Gucci Mane, Drake, etc, are all pop artists. They aren't rappers or Hip-Hop artists, they're pop.

I like alot of types of music, I can listen to alot of music, my most favorite got to be Glen Hansard, Andy Mckee, glitch mob, Disturbed, coldplay, Sam tsui, Muse, Mass Effect soundtrack, Tristram Theme Song, and Josh groban mix. Yeah, I am weird in that aspect.

Pink Floyd, its in a genre of its own.

Not really, I would say they are Hard Rock/Metal Core.

My bro reckons they're just plain rock. Thanks.

As far as older music goes, I like classic rock, prog rock, and some metal. I'll also listen to some Hip Hop from time to time, but there aren't a great deal of Rappers I care much for.

As far as newer music goes, some of it is pretty good, but there isn't much of it that I really like. Although, I do hear people bash modern music and wonder why. I don't really like most of these Pop singers, but really some of the bands out there aren't bad.

Metal and rock, check out the album art for Realm of Chaos by Bolt Thrower

I like a variety of bands/artists, but they all tend to make, to a lesser or greater extent, ballads of some kind. Elton John, Tom Waits, Dire Straits, Neil Young, and a variety of different folk genres.

"other" = folk music for me

You listed some of the classics, included Method Man...but no Wu Tang?


And yeah the new bs is commercialized crap. My friend who got me into hiphop loves the though, "so fresh! I haven't heard gak like it, thats why i like it!", which to me is a load of rubbish. My boot up his (censored) would be a new, "fresh" experience, but I'm pretty sure he wouldn't be liking it!

Punkrock (like Sum 41 and Gob), Raprock (like Zebrahead or Linking Park), Indierock (like We Are Scientists or Bloc Party), Alternative rock (like Muse), Pschygedelisch (or something like that. ) rock (like DeWolff) and Punk. (like AFI)

So, mainly rock.

I listen to a heap of different stuff...but I'm also a DJ so I tend to find myself listening to things with 4 to the floor.

Huge range. Lots of math rock at the moment, but here's a list of stuff I like, shamelessly lifted from my facebook- Jeniferever, Kyte, Pelle Carlberg, The Prize Fighter Inferno, God Is An Astronaut, Minus the Bear, Mike Skinner and The Streets, Andrew Bird, The Verve, Lisa Germano, Tool, ISIS, Frightened Rabbit, This Town Needs Guns, American Football, Washed Out, Neon Indian, Deftones, The Cure, A Perfect Circle, Morrissey, The Dismemberment Plan, Davenport Cabinet, Emancipator, Oceansize, The Sisters of Mercy, Del Amitri, Passion Pit, WHY?, Bloc Party, David Bowie, As Tall As Lions, and Trever Keith.

Celtic/Folk

Punk

Metal!!! and some metalcore too. Stuff like disturbed.

Also not sure why Hip-hop & Rap each have an entry.

My tastes are all over the place. In rap, I only like pre-1997 rap, everything up to when Biggie Smalls died. It's not specific to Biggie Smalls, so much as just a good marker for when rap went from what it was to a new... thing I didn't like. Right when Master P and those guys started getting big is when they lost me. So, I like Wu-Tang & co, NWA and their descendants up to but not including Snoop, Public Enemy, Eric B & Rakim, Nice & Smooth, Tupac, Biggie, Gangstarr, Nas, etc. The only modern rapper I like is Eminem, and I don't really follow his albums. I don't really listen to rap much, but when I do that's who it is.

What I generally actually listen to 90& of the time would be Garbage, Hole, Green Day, Oasis, Guns & Roses, Metallica, MCR, Nirvana, The Eels, Smashing Pumpkins, Lady Gaga, NIN, No Doubt, Pearl Jam, Katy Perry, Weezer, The Beatles - rock & pop, really.

I liked music before it went mainstream.

Dj tiesto , Armin Van Buuren, foo fighters, Rage against the machine- etc...

No Folk? I am writing it in.

FOLK.

Post-Hardcore and Ska.
Odd man.

Classical, Death Metal, and good ol' Ska
