Are you a bizarre mix of everything?

Are you a bizarre mix of everything? I am! And I am not ashamed to admit it. I like almost everything.

From childhood through now, I have enjoyed some (or a lot) of:

Rock and Metal (all styles)
Electronic and Industrial (all styles from dance to experimental to ethereal to noise and every single one in between)
Pop
Soundtracks and Musicals
Hip Hop and Rap
Gospel
Country (a little)
Bluegrass (and related styles)
Classical (including Opera and Oratorios)
Folk
Foreign and World music

There is only one musical style that I can not listen to ever, and that is island/Caribbean music!

Tell me your story!

I listen to a lot, from Revolutionary Army Of The Infant Jesus (experimental folk/noise) and Iona (Progressive Celtic Rock) to Nomad Son (Doom) to Focused (Hardcore).
Only thing i never listened to is Hip Hop/Rap (Except of course TQT's Spineless and XL & DBD!!)
Lately i've seen myself shift from metal to Prog Rock a bit, although Morti's S/T on vinyl made me growling in my car again.....

The only genres i dont really care for are Opera, Bluegrass, New Age/Trance, and Folk. Other than that i can find stuff i like in almost every genre.

No. I'm vary predictable.

They somewhat recently re-released their whole catalog as one CD set I believe.  I've been meaning to pick that up, as I liked what I've heard.

I see what you did there... LOL...

I listen to a lot of stuff other than metal, hard rock, and such.  Lately it's mostly punk (The Clash, Dead Kennedys, Ramones, Sex Pistols) and jazz (Miles Davis, Glenn Miller, Frank Sinatra).  I also love Blues, cinematic music (trailer music, soundtracks), electronica, and classical.  Sometimes I'll go for country and pop (or some combination of) when I'm in the mood.  Sometimes folk (mostly Bob Dylan).


If there's one genre I don't really go for, I'd have to say that it's rap / hip-hop.  But occasionally I find something even there that I enjoy.

I'm stabilized since some years in:

- Death Metal
- Grind
- Doom
- Progressive
- Experimental
- Rock
- Hardcore (from Punk), Metalcore, Deathcore
- Hardcore (Electronics), Hardteck
- Noise
- Rap
- Reggae
- Coldwave/Darkwave
- Old Disco and Varieties
- Gospel/Religious Choir
- A piece of World music and Pop

Ranked Faves and preference:
1. Prog Rock (all of it but '70s is best)
2. Heavy Metal (gotta be melodic to some capacity)
3. Pop Rock (preferably from the '60s)
4. Classical (Romantic Period rules)
5. Jazz (preferably mixed with one of the above)
6. Experimental Electronic (no "sick beats")
7. Folk (non-hipster, maybe some symphonic elements)

I've tried and can't listen to most dance pop, rap, country, reggae, and punk (I do like post-punk though). There are so many more genres and off-shoots, but I'm not set on liking them all. It is still fun going to websites like Allmusic or Rateyourmusic and just sampling genres you've never heard before.

I am for sure.

I like:
"alternative" music
punk
ska
hardcore
goth
Hard rock/metal
bluegrass
country (older - Johnny Cash, George Jones, etc.)
Jazz
Blues
classical
Rap
Mariachi
Zydeco (when in the right mood)

Doom
and
any hard rock/metal that I can understand the lyrics

I like almost anything from the '70s and '80s. Prog rock, metal, rock, pop, jazz, new wave, reggae, doesn't matter.

I like:

Classic rock & metal
Blues
Alternative
Some CCM pop
Occasionally I can take some big band swing music


Seeing that I have recently joined hundreds of builders around the globe making my own cigar box guitars, I am now checking out other artists (very few Christian bands in this arena) who are also fellow builders or players of cigar box guitars.  That's taking me deeper into some tradional blues but also some folk style music.  I like the bluesier side, but not so much the folk side.

I also think that I could tolerate, with different lyrics, some of the newer country music since they incorporate so many of the 80s rock style into that these days.

Any genre of metal I'll listen to
thats a huge realm if you ask me

I do like Rock and ONE Country artist (The Man In Black)

but thats about it

oh out of CCM i like Crowder thats it

Absolutely..

I like glam/hair metal
power metal
some doom
some progressive
New wave
dance trance
80s pop
blues
outlaw country
Rockabilly
Goth
70s classic rock
psychedelic rock

My faves are:

Progressive rock and metal
Sludge/doom-this tends to be the majority of heavy stuff I listen to anymore
Folk
Bluegrass
Some power metal 
Rap/hip hop-this is one genre I do christian only

Musically? Yep I'm quite eclectic, but the words to fit would be varied/picky/FUSSY

lol

Yeah. My music tastes are all over the place.

Well, I'm a bizarre mix of MANY things.......but you were talking about musical tastes.


I like to call my musical tastes "Classic Melodic Progressive Blackened Deaththrash", which is to say that in a given night at work, you will find me listening to anything from Allen/Lande to Zyklon. If it falls under the umbrella of "metal", there's a good chance I listen to it, as long as it's not Djent or porngrind.

You could say I'm a little bit country, I'm a little bit rock and roll.

So your both Donnie and Marie
