What kind of music do you like?

[wally]

What kind of music do u guys listen to? Gosh my poll didnt show up! Can u put a poll on for Rap, Country, Jazz, Rock, Alternative, and Religious Music BFK!?!

[erik13]

polls not here, but:
I usually listen to alternative, but I also listen to songs from musicals, europop(the stuff's like candy; it's so good, but it rots your brain), and some GOOD american pop (80's and 90's).

[MCR Fan]

Alternative. My Chemical Romance(hints the name lol) that kinda shtuff. I've had Attack by 30 Seconds to Mars on replay for a while now. lol

[Big_fat_kiddo]

Edited as you pleased:)

I made it a poll where you can vote on more then one answer.

[FatMike]

Alternative. My Chemical Romance(hints the name lol) that kinda shtuff. I've had Attack by 30 Seconds to Mars on replay for a while now. lol

Haha - Don't deny you like emo, I won't ;)

[Omniscient]

Hm, techno for me, too bad it wasn't on the poll.
Artists like DJ Aligator, Dj Pulse, DHT and DJ Mangoo...
Special D ain't that bad either.
But on the poll I voted alternative, I have some songs from My Chemical Romance on my pc, quite good actually.:D

[wally]

Thanx BFK! Sorry for not haveing techno Sephyre, I will never satisfy you :) MCR is on my good list but i usally listen to rap.

[Big_fat_kiddo]

Changed poll.

I added techno to it, and changed it to 1 votes.

Thanks for pointing that out;)

[tiny belly]

anyone that chose rock, rock on! :)

[supersarge250]

I went for rock, but I like a little bit of everything you put on the poll, except for rap. It's too preachy for me. I used to not like country when the artists were really whiny. It's still not my favorite. Never could stand heavy metal, because I could never understand what they were screaming about. I did notice the absence of disco, unless it falls into the techno category. But my main favorite is pop. I'm a die hard fan of Amy Grant, both Christian and pop. I guess I just prefer stuff I can understand.

[Guts]

Rock got my vote :)

ZZTop, Slade, The Sweet, Suzy Quattro - yeah, I know, really showing my age here :D

[MCR Fan]

Haha - Don't deny you like emo, I won't ;)
Eh it isn;t really emo. Most of the emo stuff sounds basically the same. MCR has a different kinda sound to it. It isn't as fast and high as the others I guess. I dunno it just sounds different to me or somethin.

[BishopboyCA]

for other, i like J-Pop (japanese pop) and J-rock (japanese rock). i also like a number of others

[BigBellyDude]

Classical and New Age isn't in poll either. Enya rules! I appreciate several different genres of music. Right now I'm killing SOAD, Korn, Madonna, Mariah, Enya, Nickelback, and Mozart.

[MCR Fan]

That's quite a variety ya got goin there. lol

[bigfat_mickey]

i like mexican or samba it make me feel good
but i do like bands like green day and simple plan

[texasgut]

Country Music. I love Country Music all of it. Recent artists all the way back to the beginning inthe 1920's. And just to show I mean it, here's a Jukebox I put together.
http://www.geocities.com/texjones2004/index.htm
This how much I love my Country Music. Conway Twitty, Jim Reeves, Ronnie Milsap and George Strait are my favorites.
But I love music in general. Elton John is my idol (for 30 years straight) I saw him here in Dallas back in 1979 and agin in 2002 with Billy Joel in Los Angeles. I love Glenn Miller, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Scott Joplin, Billie Holiday, Diana Ross, Aretha Franklin, Olivia Newton-John, Heart, Boston,Pink Floyd, The Moody Blues, Earth,Wind & Fire, the Osmonds, The Jacksons. I like Toby Keith's "Big Blue Note" and Leann Rhimes "I Probably Wouldn't Be This way". I like Mary J. Blige's recent song. I don't like hip-hop, but I do like the old rap, The Sugarhill Gang, Run-DMC. In my computer, I've collected music from the 18th Century all the way to now, over 3,500 pieces of music in every style except hip-hop

[mbv2948]

Mostly alternative music. There's so many categories underneath it that 'alternative' becomes a vague term.

The list: The Cure, Nine Inch Nails, My Bloody Valentine, Sonic Youth, Tears for Fears, Prick, Slowdive, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Cocteau Twins, Depeche Mode, KMFDM, Skinny Puppy.

Plus any classical composer. Give me any old symphonies and whatnot, I love it. =)

[BigZero]

i chose other and techno
other being dance, trance and artists no ones ever heard of

[koalaman]

I like all kinds of music, from country to screamo

[MCR Fan]

The Cure wins.

I'd hafta say my favorite bands right now is deffinatly Alkaline Trio, Queen, and the Cure. All complete opposites. lol

[jkl]

and i can like almost everything from britney spears to marelyn manson

[fatshawn92]

I like almost anything, but country and rap aren't my favorites

[CeeJ]

It's gotta be the rock, really!

[WTFOMGwolfgang]

I like all kinds of stuff, though I'm not at all a fan of rap, country, or jazz [with the exception of anything by Glen Miller, which is more swing than anything].

My favourite genre would probably be black metal, ja. Favourite bands would be Dimmu Borgir, Windir, Nokturnal Mortem, and Carpathian Forest.

2nd to bm is general 90s music be it early or late 90's; rock, metal, or pop; or whether it was popular or not.

[FatMike]

Pretty much as long as its Emo, Soft Punk, Classic Rock or Indie, I will be happy with it.

[Kizzume]

I enjoy Jazz, Rock, New Wave, New Age, Fusion, Non-Emo Alternative, Electronic (if it isn't techno/dance), World Music (from all countries, my favorite being middle-eastern), Classic Country, Old Standards, Movie Soundtracks, Classical (and the periods beyond--my favorites being Stravinsky, Mussorgsky, and Debussy) and music that hasn't been made into a category yet. My favorite artists/composers/groups are the ones that either start a new genre or the ones that define or redefine a genre.

I rarely like rap (I espeically hate gangster rap--the reasons are almost endless), I very rarely like New Country (drum machines and voice pitch correction belongs in electronic music, not country, it's too difficult to tell one artist from another in new country, and the lyrics are usually really sappy), I don't like Opera, it's rare for me to like Blues (I just get bored by it), I find speed metal to be really boring (it just starts sounding like white noise after a while), and I don't listen to religious music at all.

My musical tastes definitely influence my own music--I've got a myspace page with a few examples--/kizzume. I'm also in a rock band that should start playing out over the next month and a half, called Mirra.

[Nowhereboi]

Definitely a rock person, though rock can encompass so many styles and variations. I'd say a little of everything is good, though.

[random_snow03]

I can listen to anything really.

[fatboigainer]

Me I'm a techno boi. Always have been. If its not techno, then anything dancy will do:)

[biggiebecks]

I like pretty much any kind of music.. a variety

[cubbish]

I really liked rock very much at high school... But discovered the possibilities of electronic music later, and fell in love with techno music... I love the outside festivals!

[fawakka]

I like all types of music, but my favourite is rock.

[projectsne99]

I listen to country and light rock

[FatFox_Whistles]

Other: "classical" , Techno/industriel , Scandinavian folk, Celtic, Melodic Blackmetal, Turkish pop, and BollyWood film songs.

[yeahsoanyways]

indiee fan here.
hush sound
and the sounds
shiny toy guns.
best bands ever. theyre not really big in canada though.

[iwtbrf20]

I love industrial music, mainly Nine Inch Nails. Last October I got to meet the band at a show and it was amazing!

[JoshmoJoe]

I like lots of classic music but I also like rap, rock, and alternative.

[Sephiroth]

Rock is my favorite.

[jb17kx]

Another Mussorgsky fan, Kizzume?

My tastes are wide and varied. Really, I'll take anything from any genre (except for rap, oh no...) based on the song. I like classical (especially Prokofiev, Dvorák, Mussorgsky, etc), New Age/Alternative, rock, pop, anything really.
I like Elton John, Peter Gabriel, Billy Joel, Meatloaf, Matchbox Twenty, John Mellencamp, all sorts.

I do also actually quite like film music too.

[Largeness]

i listen to SKA. Ska music is awesome. i go to a lot of concerts. moshing and skankin' all night long. if u dont know ska is. good bands are streetlight manifesto, reel big fish, sofapunch and goldfinger.

[autostrada10]

I like techno the most. If anyone has iTunes, they should look up "Du Und Dein Automobil" (it's in German).

[jb17kx]

i listen to SKA.
My father has quite a collection of Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra albums...

[baska]

i like a lot of adult contemporary

[BigBellyDude]

Classical and New Age isn't in the poll either. Enya rules! I appreciate several different genres of music. Right now I'm killing SOAD, Korn, Madonna, Mariah, Enya, Nickelback, and Mozart.

I thought I would update this to let you guys know what the latest craze is. I'm still killing Madonna's "Confessions on a Dance Floor" I saw her concert recently on TV. It was great. Enya also. Now I'm into The Postal Service, MCR "The Black Parade" rocks, Enigma, Evanescence, Tool and The Lamb of God.

[super73]

I like a lot of differnt kinds of music, but right now I'm listening to rap.

[jeremy_8291]

I like all kinds of music, Christian, rock, country, pop, all the good stuff... except rap

[cow_boo]

I like almost everything, but I'm not a big fan of rap. Also I listen mostly to pop and rock.

[gtrmanoh]

I'm into country.....classic rock and blues... I play guitar and I have been in 3 blues band and one country. Anybody else into guitars and stuff related?

[gainboy]

Rock, some pop, electronic music, indie.

All that, what is my favourite. ;)

[dragonboy]

....J-metal, J-pop, Videogame music, Metal

[nmcloud]

I listen to a little of everything

[autostrada10]

If you have iTunes (and if you like techno/electronic), you should check out songs by Das Bierbeben* and Rinôçérôse.

*My favorites are "Mach Deinen Ferseher Kaputt" and "Staub." The preveiws iTunes gives you for both these songs are just part of the intros and not the best parts of the songs.

[Happenstance]

I listen mainly to progressive rock, indie, and metal, but my collection is impressively diverse. I enjoy most anything that reaches a certain level of complexity. Favourite bands I'm listening to right now are Mae, Coheed and Cambria, Minus the Bear, and Breaking Benjamin.

[Supermatt4818]

I listen to a lot of older rock and pop music. Really just about anything from the 60's to the 80's.

[goonboy]

i live for music...i listen to anythin from indie-rock, experimental, folk, country, emo, punk, pop...my faves are people like rx bandits, devendra banhart, joanna newsom, pg six, espers, brand new, fall out boy, jackson browne, grateful dead, minor threat, wooden wand, luna, lots of osbure old folk records etc..

[free74chino]

It all depends, but for the most part i enjoy listening to jazz and alternative rock. I like to listen to wayne newton, louis armstrong etc, and enjoy listening to bands such as my chemcal romance, the killers, fall out boys.
If I'm going to dance i like salsa and rave music. Anything that makes the culo (ass) move.

[dripp]

I like most any rock. Electronic music is pretty good, but I mainly just stick with Beck in that genre.

I'm trying to get into ska, but I think I'm about ten years late on that front. :)

[DanComps]

Mostly pop, which isn't listed???

But I like happy hardcore and techno too :) Rock isn't too bad either.

[Youfat]

I always say I like Alternative Rock. Fall Out Boy, PanicATD, Red Jumpsuit, . . .

[Wish Fulfillment]

I'm really into alternative and indie rock (Nirvana, Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins, Sonic Youth, Blur, My Bloody Valentine, The Stone Roses, etc) but I've got a special place in my heart for the Beatles, Bjork and avant-garde stuff (Laurie Anderson and Glenn Branca come to mind).

[cookiee]

I like a bit of everything, with the exception of rap/hip-hop. :) Depends on the mood i'm in really

[blahsticks]

alot of indie and post hardcore music. Stuff like fugazi.

[feverfew]

My favourites are soundtracks, especially Thomas Newman, also some ethnomusic and stuff

[Pandachan]

Techno...but then thats such a general response...

Chillout, drum n' bass, lounge, eurobeat and some happy hardcore, house music...the list goes on. As long as an artist is good at what they do, I tend to appreciate them. Depends on my mood as well.

[Raain]

I like pretty much anything that deals with rock and stuff. Emo stuff is my favorite tho :D

[rmh66]

Everything except "new country", "smooth jazz", and most of the singing you hear on American Idol. I like rock and punk mostly tho.

[Barnabas Collins]

I'm one of those rare people that like listening to almost anything.
But my absolute favorite genres are musicals and soundtracks. Yep...

[Gabonar]

I like the (((TRANCE))) music (BT,ATB,Armin Van Buuren,Tiësto,Paul Van Dyk) and a litle of Rock Music (black sabbath, the strokes , the mars volta and others...)

[ColdFire26]

I'm into lot of music.....But my favorite is Showtune/Musicals. I LOVE MUSICALS WITH A PASSION. <3 One day I will work for broadway and/or film!
MUHAHAHAHA!!!

[Omegamode]

I'll listen to pretty much anything except country and rap.

[Kaejer]

I'm a really big music person(not someone that is big that likes music >.>). I like pretty much anything that's good. However a lot of my more popular genres are Rock, Metal, J-Rock, J-Pop, Pop, Hip-hop(select few), Techno(trance), and Game Remixes.

I listen to quite a few different artists, but my favorite band is System of a Down(SOAD).

[ilya_kuriakin]

Indie music rules!

[AFatChance]

Chance likes Alt. Rock.

My favorite bands include:

Straylight Run
Gorillaz
Taking Back Sunday
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Blue October
Garbage
CAKE
Modest Mouse
The White Stripes

[bluewind]

I like most music, but tend to lean towards metal.

[Happenstance]

Indie music does rule. I've been listening to a lot of As Tall As Lions, Mae, and Starlight Mints lately. In fact, I just saw Mae live last night, though whoever was working the sound levels needs a good smack. More than that he needs a Mae CD so he knows what they're supposed to sound like. Still a good show from them, though, I may try to catch them on their tour with OK Go and The Fray this summer.

[smlbichb]

Alternative Rock and Industrial

[ivegottabiggut]

i like everything except rap and screamo

[Happenstance]

Screamo gets no love. Seems everyone's reaction is that if they're screaming, it's not really music, it's crap. But some groups, might I reccommend The Fall of Troy and Thursday, and even The Blood Brothers although they're a group I find difficult to listen to, have a lot of cool things going on behind the screaming. The screams stick out at first because they're different, it's a recent development, we're not used to hearing them in music. But if you focus more on the musical end of it, the screams are just another sound that completes a musical picture, like putting very attention-grabbing hand claps in a song.

[FatMike]

Screamo gets no love. Seems everyone's reaction is that if they're screaming, it's not really music
Sure its music, its just people would rather hear something that isn't going to give them a headache if repeatedly listening too it.

[Khato]

What type of music I like? Why, anything, of course. From Vagner to Linkin Park. =P I love it all. Concerning the posts above, screaming while playing music kinda hurts the experience, as you can't listen to the words if you just hear screaming! =o

Oh, and I believe Rap isn't music, it's poetry to a beat. Since, you know, they're not actually singing! XD

[littlelily]

Other: underground punk and hardcore

[Happenstance]

Oh, and I believe Rap isn't music, it's poetry to a beat. Since, you know, they're not actually singing! XD

Understandable, as I for one could care less about the words in a song. I disagree with your statement on rap, however, as there exists music without singing. The rapping is just another sound, and while it is not necessarily musical of its own right, it is put to a rhythm just as disco groups put recorded hand claps to their music, and it does not make it any less of music. It doesn't mean I like it, or that it takes any great skill to create, but still.

So... underground punk and hardcore, eh, Lily? Familiar with The Fall of Troy or Glassjaw?

[littlelily]

Why yes, Glassjaw are good...I like their sound but...they're a little too famous to be considered underground nowadays...!
My faves at the moment are F'ed up(can't write the real band name on here, but I'm sure you can figure it out) Career Suicide, 9 Shocks Terror, Acid Reflux, Mind Eraser and Cut the Shit....

[Happenstance]

That's important to you, that an artist be lesser known in order for you to listen to them? A peculiar criterion, and had I followed it I would have given up listening to The Cure and Incubus long ago. I'm glad I didn't.

[littlelily]

Happenstance, I think you've misunderstood what I meant.

What I was saying is: I generally listen to 'underground' hardcore (i.e. I go to most hardcore shows in the city where I live, so most of the music I like would be considered 'underground' in the sense that the bands aren't that well known.)

In response to your question about glassjaw I simply stated that I thought they where too famous to be considered 'underground' NOT that I disliked them because of that. I in fact said "I like their sound."

So no, underground is not a criteria, but it does describe the vast majority of music that I listen to, because that's what's available to me in the community. There's lots of well known bands that I like too (Infest, Lamb of God, H100s, H20, Wall of Jericho etc.) I just wouln't consider them underground, that's all :D

Didn't mean to offend.

For some reason I've never heard incubus before, what do they sound like?

[Happenstance]

Oh, I'm not offended. Takes quite a bit more to offend ol' Hap. And I quite understand what you meant, you were simply ambiguous as to your musical intents before.

Incubus sounds quite a bit like Red Hot Chili Peppers, but it's interesting how that divides societies - there are Incubus people, and there are RHCP people. Incubus has a darker, more subtle sound, RHCP is brighter and more aggressive. I'm an Incubus person, though was tremendously disappointed with their last release which looks an awful lot like they've sold out. If you're curious, check out Morning View and Make Yourself, their mid-life material when they were rising to fame and still had the ingenuity of Dirk Lance's songwriting to their benefit. Specific songs I'd recommend include Consequence, Warning, The Warmth, and Nice to Know You.

And while you said 'I like their sound', you also followed it with a 'but'. Buts speak volumes.

[jerome]

I really like music of an artist, called Klaus Schulze. He is amazing

[that_guy]

I actually like video game music. No not mario, knowing thats the most common question after i say that. The music i like is well orchestrated. There's this one game, Baten Kaitos, amazing music, the second game as well.

[Happenstance]

Familiar with the soundtrack to Skies of Arcadia?

[that_guy]

no, but it sounds insanely fromiliar

[chubarama]

I could write 20 pages on what kinda music I like but you could just go to

http://www.last.fm/user/ravenguy2000/

and find out for yourself. :)

[WTFOMGwolfgang]

Right now, I'm hooked on EBM. For any who are not familiar, EBM is to techno as death metal is to rock. It has all the electronic elements but the beats are heavier, there's usually more saw, and sometimes has distorted vocals.

Bands: Combichrist, God Module, Zeromancer, Das Ich

[dream853]

my fav genre of music is Symphonic Metal...i guess that could be classified under rock..i dunno if anyone's heard any symphonic metal before though
Within Temptation's awesome!! :D
and they're coming to Canada + the US late in May :D
www.within-temptation.com
hahaha i've been kind of obsessed lately so that's why im going on and on :p

ohh btw Happenstance I've heard of Skies of Arcadia, my friend has the game and he's absolutely in love with it
is the soundtrack good? i was thinking of getting it for his birthday lol




[EDIT] - Use the edit function, it's your friend ;)

[Dewdr0p117]

This is kind of embarassing, but I absolutely love showtunes. I adore musicals and I'm almost listening to them.

[gumarabic32]

mostly indie... current favorite: new lcd soundsystem

[Happenstance]

Dream - the Skies of Arcadia soundtrack is absolutely incredible, I have it. I only wish I could write music like that. Symphonic metal... like Rhapsody? I have a few songs by Rhapsody that are rather cool.
I'm still stuck on Mew, but my other band of the week seems to be So Many Dynamos.

[dream853]

Ohh wow then that'g great :D...thank's Happenstance...my friend will definitely be getting that for his b-day!
yes i think so...i mean i haven't heard anything by Rhapsody, i've just heard of Rhapsody...my fav by far though is Within Temptation...for anyone is the US--their EP The Howling came out today lol...it's only at Hot Topic, however...
hahaa i should stop, im starting to sound like an advertiser lol

[buy more product]

Gad, sir. No "classical" alternative? Kids these days! ;)

I like early and baroque music, and 21st century lyric minimalism. Michael Nyman is my favorite composer. I'm sort of stuck, though--I don't know what music to buy next, because every time I try someone new I'm sharply disappointed. I spent like $25 to import an album by a dutch recorder consort playing contemporary quartets and thought that five of the six pieces were nervewracking. I listen to Nyman and Joby Talbot with greatest appreciation, and enjoyed Tavener's "Praises and Lamentations" more than anything I'd heard by Gorecki, who is next on the list. I think that Philip Glass writes wretched, plastic, useless music. Oh, I like John Adams, but only in certain moods, and as for John Cage, he's hit or miss with me--he either makes me uncomfortable or puts me in a really appealing cognitive place. I just don't know what to think of Gavin Bryars--he's growing on me (I hated "Last Days" at first, but every time I listen to it again I like it more.) My point, though, is that I don't know where to go from here... any suggestions?

[Lithium]

I'm into grunge. Nirvana, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, I like them all.

I'm a Red Hot Chili Peppers guy. Stadium Arcadium is amazing.

[Happenstance]

BMP - I don't know a great deal of contemporary classical music and I'll admit the only ones on your list I've heard anything by are Nyman and Cage, so perhaps suggesting Eric Whitacre to you could elicit a turning up of the nose but I'm going to do so anyhow. I do enjoy Eric Whitacre a lot and think everyone else should too.

[pavili255]

This will be somewhat random... but we just played a song by Eric Whitacre in Symphonic band... it's called October.

However, we'd like to play Godzilla Eats Las Vegas... it's really a song by him!!

[Happenstance]

I know both songs and happen to be of the mind that October is one of the finest pieces ever written.

[bmcguire88]

i liek lots of music. as u can see i am a king crimson fan. i liek heavy stuff like syl, pantera, megadeath, ect. i liek classic rock and jazz fusion too. some coutry

i dont like rap b/c it is demeaning to women but it is funny sometimes.

[Happenstance]

Yes, I noticed the King Crimson. Right on with that, classing prog rock for the win.

[RHCP943]

I'm into rock and alternative, especially the red hot chili peppers (hence the name), incubus, and audioslave (upset they broke up)

[BigBellyDude]

Linkin Park

[SirCeramic]

I never know how to explain my music tastes. I sometimes call it "Showtunes", since most of my favorites are from soundtracks of some sort, but that name is absolutely tacky. :P Aside from soundtracks, I love classical instrumental, and rock. Queen = <3

[Alpha_Wulf]

I listen most to Jazz, Alt. and Rock. But I love jazz the most. I guess that comes from being a sax, bass, and piano player! :D

[Okamoto]

Showtunes weren't an option? Wicked, Chicago, RENT, Hairspray anyone? lol

[Toddle]

Showtunes weren't an option? Wicked, Chicago, RENT, Hairspray anyone? lol

I own Chicago and RENT (but lost RENT. I feel crappy for that). RENT IS EFFIN' AWESOME MAN!
*starts singing RENT, followed by Today 4 U!, and then La Vie Boheme A, and La Vie Boheme B*

[BigBellyDude]

The Chemical Brothers....We Are the Night
The Crystal Method....Drive
Linkin Park...Minutes To Midnight
Feist...The Reminder
Carina Round...Slow Motion Addict
Bjork....Volta

[barzotti101]

i like alot of stuff from funk.. to 70's to guitar stuff and alot of blues..
what am i mostly listening to:
eric clapton, the band, robert cray, tom petty, traveling wilburys,keb'mo , robert johnson, keith richards, george harrison, taj mahal, eric bibb, thats basically what i like the most but i have way more than that
alot of the old blues stuff.. guitar stuff too..

[bellypudge]

I dunno, I don't claim to have eclectic tastes, but among my favorite artists are Björk, Tegan and Sara, M.I.A., Feist, Mirah, Psapp... Right now I'm falling in love with Camille. Her album Le fil has such a clever concept. I love it, even if I can't understand a word of French. <3

[chunkyboy]

Does anyone like Lily Allen? some of those new british singers are pretty good.

[blargh127]

Alternative, Rock, and Techno are the main staples of my music playlists.. but I can put up with anything other than rap or country..

Does anyone like Lily Allen? some of those new british singers are pretty good.

Yep. I listen to Smile at school between classes; it's good theme music for me and it entertains me in the hallway.. haha..

[bellydude17]

I listen to a wide variety of music. A little bit of everything, actually. Rock, pop, country, indie, folk, classical,....

[eric]

AFI is the best to me and the song cocaine by strata and sick and tired by default lol

[chunkyboy]

Yep. I listen to Smile at school between classes; it's good theme music for me and it entertains me in the hallway.. haha..

Have you listened to Friday Night? That's probably my favorite song of hers. Smile is good too.

[Randomizer]

I'm a rock kind of guy...I like almost any rock band...No favorite at the moment

[goodgainer]

Oh! Chunky Pam! The only singer allowed to talk about being chunky and food without being chastised! XD

[BigBellyBoi]

Techno is awesommmmmeeeee >.<

[Toddle]

I must agree.

[SandertjHe]

POP!:D:P all kinds of:P

[chubarama]

you can see for yourself right here (http://www.last.fm/user/ravenguy2000/)

[FatMike]

Same deal for me. (http://last.fm/user/mbuchan)

[sweet282]

I like a little bit of everything though mainly country and rock.

[Fat Nat]

Jazz! Jazz! Jazz! Specifically, straight-ahead jazz. Listening a lot to Cannonball Adderley and Milt Jackson at the moment, and Charlie Parker. I like 'showtunes' if you're talking about very early shows by guys like Gershwin but I'm not that interested in a lot of the modern stuff by guys like Sondheim and Andrew Lloyd Webber.

'Classical' (in the broadest sense, rather than the period) from different periods: Purcell, Handel, Bach, Haydn, Mozart, Schubert, Puccini, Stravinsky, Bartok, Prokofiev, Gershwin, Shostakovich, Britten, Bernstein, Bernard Herrmann...

Also really into Stevie Wonder's stuff from the 70s, woohoo! Bjork is cool, Jamiroquai I used to listen to a lot too back in the 'day' when they were still making good albums. Don't really listen to any rock or techno though.

[chubbylover07]

such as swing, early pop, the smiths ect
also like pink floyed and stuff.

[LittleSam]

Reggae, Ska and RnB are my favourites, but I like bits of all sorts.

[fatboy225]

I guess this might be a little but of an "other," though it could fall under rock, but I'm way into the emo stuff, XD.

[acry]

I listen to everything except country and rap. I don't know how to classify it.

[doughboy]

I like instrumental music. That means a variety of areas; piano, accordian, zither, guitar... you name it. I love marching bands as well.

[redvein]

well, lets see I like very diffrent music, MOdest MOuse, Coheed and cambria, Feist, Ugly Casanova,....
Pretty much anything, plus my boyfriend is intorduucing me to some other music...
so yea, all ot of music.

[youngandfat]

i like hardcore/screamo music

[ianto27]

The occasionaly bit of emo rock, you know, Fall Out Boy, MCR... but apart from that, very little else except for soundtrack music, especially video game music and The Doctor Who Soundtrack. I find that soundtracks like that generate a real feel of nostalgia and emotion within me - and plus, what kind of video game fan doesn't love Final Fantasy music? :p

[xxxxx]

Well, I'm listening to mostly Irish folk music at the moment, but no one put a poll option for folk music. Ah well, I'm not that suprised.
listen to pretty much any kind of rock as well.

[Emma]

I voted for rock and techno, but I also like classical, especially Vivaldi. Plus the "Moulin Rouge" and "Nightmare before Christmas" soundtracks are great.

[GreenGlasses101]

techno, dance, trance...anything with a good beat
something you can dance to!

[regut]

I like bands like radiohead and belle and sebastian, but I often look for new bands with experimental sounds. I like Brazilian and French music as well

[Proxem]

I'm big on indie, alternative, and punk rock. =D

[terrancejones]

I mostly listen to Video Game music, but is very open to classical, oldies, and some classic rock...

[FatRob]

I like all music except County and Rap

[LuvMFurry]

late 80s - mid 90s dance

[johnplayer]

Punk rock... the offspring, blink 182, flogging molly :p:p:p
Also the doors, ACDC, Nirvana, Guns'n roses, coldplay, foo fighters and U2 :rolleyes:

[universalstorm22]

So i listen to pretty much everything but country. like, honestly, go through my ipod and there'll be everything from marilyn manson to natasha bedingfield..no joke.

[Al. Truistic]

I love music in all different kinds of languages. My favorite would have to be Japanese music xD; . It's just as big a vice as my obvious fetish, except I'm extremely open about music. My favorite types would have to be J-Power/symphonic metal, and some JGoth. I like JRock in general, but those are my favorite sub-genres. I also enjoy listening to techno / electronica, some punkish/alternative stuff (Decemberunderground and MSI count as that?), but I also love classical music . Yah, I said it, I love classical, almost to the point where I wish Bach was my grandfather xD .

[Orton_fan]

im mostly into alternative, but i listen to almost anything

[skinnye]

Alternative is the way to go. And any kind of rock is good.

[Thammarastza]

I'm into many kinds of rock and metal, I also like punk rock and many kinds of hardcore punk music (screamo, post-hardcore metalcore etc.), and I'm very open to many other of music exept electronic music like dance, trance and hardcore techno, but Drum and Bass is ok.

[pingwin998]

I mainly prefer rock and metal music - not too hardcore, though. I prefer the artist to express his feelings with the quality of sound and sensible text, rather than with screaming as loud as he can. ;]

[ukfa]

Damn that list is missing a few genres, like pop for one lol, my favourite!
I also like Indie pop/rock so I have a pretty bad taste in music (according to my friends anyway!)

[Oboeplayer91]

My favorite is classical, though from time to time I listen to Shania Twain, and even rarer: the radio.

[Bullet92]

lol i listen to a weird combo, mostly punk, ska rap, and a bit of rock fave bands include.

Choking Victim
Mos Def
M.O.P
Left Over Crack
Against Me
johnstones
big d and the kids table
birdman & lil wayne
radiohead
keepin 6
wu tang clan
tribe called quest

to many to list!

[xxxxx]

Big D and the kids table are awesome - saw them live when they were touring the Uk last year!

[Obesekid1988]

Rock and metal (nothing screamy though) but if its epic and has a soaring chorus I'll probably like it. I listen to a fair bit of other stuff though from techno to old pop and rock from the 70's and 80's. I'll also occasionally get nostalgic for my childhood and pop on some spice girls :D

[Knock the Dock]

I love really intense hardcore rap. :3 I also love Country music. And classic rock.

Very versatile in the music field. X)

[symrmatthew]

Quite diversified everyone!

Here's mine:

Panic(!) At The Disco
The Hush Sound
The Dresden Dolls
The Killers
The Fray
Maroon 5

[whaddup]

Pretty much everything...except for country haha

[JeffandV]

I have at least a few songs from every genre that I like and listen to often. However, the music I most often listen to are: Country, Rock(all sub-genres and decades), Jazz, and Classical.

[zijjh]

I like anything with a spanish rythym or saxaphone in it. I know its weird, but Its cool. ;)

[kumquat]

I like reggae and R&B. I am surprised R&B isn't up there

[Mad Dog]

I'm pretty eclectic, but my favorite artist is Yoko Kanno.

[Chaser91]

Just based on the way the poll is set up I'd go for Alternative. More specifically though I'm into more indie type bands that almost no one's ever heard of. :D

The three most widely known of my favorite bands would be Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins, and Muse. Other lesser-knowns include Wolf Parade, Sunset Rubdown, Fair to Midland, Arcade Fire, Beirut, The Most Serene Republic, 65daysofstatic, Radical Face, Cloud Cult, Patrick Wolf, Shugo Tokumaru, St. Vincent, and Final Fantasy. (Oh and and I'm not talking about the video game music. Final Fantasy is the stage name for violinist Owen Pallett)

[randomguy363636]

Classical is the best for me. Especially early Romantic.

[counterbook]

Electro and drum n Bass

[FatDave]

Beatles, Stones, Who, Yardbirds, Kinks, Small Faces, The Move, Hollies, that sort of thing.

[FatDave]

Besides the British Invasion stuff, I'm also partial to '80s "College/Alternative" such as REM, XTC, Husker Du, Hoodoo Gurus, Replacements, Midnight Oil, dBs, Pixies, even Nirvana.

[bubbasboy]

I listen to soundtracks and scores. For some reason I just love instrumental music!

[Emagix]

Rock as in Heavy Metal

[Bearzor]

I like industrial. Music can never be too distorted or layered for my tastes. =D

[corinthianimp]

I'd say I'm eclectic in my musical tastes. Right now, though, I'm into Regina Spektor, ZOX, and CSS.

[big_j]

Love techno, jazz, indie, alternative. Just talking about makes me want to pick a new song in iTunes. :)

[Zorg]

Punk rock, like late 70s early 80s LA/UK/NY/DC/Chicago stuff. Love it.

[JamesReady]

Love dirty hardcore political punk, Lefover crack/Choking Victim, The Sex Pistoles, against me lots of others, I like older late 80's early 90's rap (before it became about ho's cars and cash) like wu-tang clan, etc lots of indie rock and classic rock anything that isnt fake and requires talent

[ZaWu]

Why is there never a "Classical" option?

But other than that I like techno.

[awesomefatkid]

Rock baby. Disturbed would be my favorite

[Shouldireally?]

I put other- but I like pop. I like bands like Kings of Leon, but I really like people like Michael Buble, Alexandra Burke and Mika, along with Pink and James Morrison.

A mix really.

[ShyGuy]

Old school rock, the classics. Although my musical tastes are quiet eclectic, and cover multiple genres..give me Pink Floyd, and the Greatful Dead anyday.

[Driveshaft]

Teeechhnoooo. Love it. I am a sucker for country too.

Overall, I can listen to anything. Not heavy metal though. NUU

[Falleneyeseagle]

Prog rock.

[atwa]

Mostly alternative music. There's so many categories underneath it that 'alternative' becomes a vague term.

The list: The Cure, Nine Inch Nails, My Bloody Valentine, Sonic Youth, Tears for Fears, Prick, Slowdive, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Cocteau Twins, Depeche Mode, KMFDM, Skinny Puppy.

Plus any classical composer. Give me any old symphonies and whatnot, I love it. =)

Holy shit dude! Great taste! I like all those bands and lots that follow in the same vain like Joy Division and Bauhaus and Radiohead.

[littlegut]

Classic Rock (60's) is what I listen to most. Beatles, Mamas and Pappas, Byrds, Kinks and the like...

[Bigdood]

I'll listen to anything, but I've been listening to alot of ska and alternative music lately.

[Arlee]

I listen mostly to classic rock, and indie music.

[Foodlover]

I listen to Hardrock, sometimes Metal too. But, you can also make me happy with House music or music that's slow. So it's almost everything!

[megaultra2]

H.E.A.T.
Andre Matos
Edguy
Emergency Gate
Eluveitie
Caliban
Kreator x2
See You Next Tuesday
Dead Beyond Buried
Misery Index
Hate Eternal

[confusedone94]
