What's your favourite music genre(s)?

Mine's rap, hip hop, RnB and a little bit of rock.

About all I listen to by choice is classical music, although I hear a lot of contemporary stuff when I go out or watch television.

Some of what I listen to Here
add this as well as this

To Mr. No one: Just about...Johnny Cash, and I certainly like the bagpipes, but wouldn't listen to the other noises you refer to as music.

I am rather partial to most Italian aria (esp. Caruso, scratchy please), Bizet, Purcell and can take a little Verdi. I also enjoy folk music from all corners of the British Isles, early American Country before influences and some Continental [European Mainland] folk music.

Well I listen to bout everything but Techno / Heavy Metal and HipHop really. I listen particularly a lot to classical music, as I ve grown up with it at home, but do like some occasional indie pop atm. Thanks to some friends, I ve been to a few real nice "low budget" concerts of indie bands. I hate anything with major labels (as in wouldnt pay for a concert) as they get on my nerves with the DRM and legal stuff thats been going on in the past / present / future.

Is there a thread here where everyone lists their music ? I have/had to rip all my CDs again though, as I recently lost 2 Hdds worth of data .

You don't like Hip Hop? Any particular reason for that?

Nope, not really. Just 2 out of 3 HipHop songs (of the fewI get in contact with) do not really suite my taste. Dunno.

I listen to pretty much anything but rap or black metal (exception being Old Man's Child, melodic black metal, I like how they do the melodies, the vocals aren't my stuff), mainstream catchy pop stuff isn't usually for me either since they get boring fast.

Right now I've been listening to a lot of melodic death metal, and technical death metal.

In Flames (old albums, when they really did melodic stuff), Dark Tranquillity (Character is way too awesome for a album), Atheist is also nice, the Unquestionable Presence album is great.

Also Darkest Hour. I suppose it's more metalcore than MDM, but it still sounds great, the album Deliver Us to be exact.

But then again, as my music taste is pretty extensive, I like The Album Leaf. Now this is pop done right. Awesome ambient/instrumental stuff, so relaxing.

My all in all taste you can find @ www.last.fm/user/Rawe-

I like a good blues.

Rock n Roll rules. I also like bluegrass, and some Rockabilly.Guess I'm old fashioned.
I think Hip-Hop is crap.

I like my metal black like my coffee I also enjoy heavy metal, glam metal, death metal, post hardcore, emocore (you know, it was a genre in the 80's), pop punk, horror punk, post hardcore, hardcore, rock, alternative and basically anything with loud noise, fast drums etc. I'm very different lol

I hate rap, rnb and hip hip with a passion.

Pretty much parallel your tastes, but have a special liking for soft swing and piano/base/drums trios - also soloists like John Coliani at Maybeck (his 'Stardust" is so-o-o relaxing), plus Kate Ceberano and Wendy Matthews version of 'You've always got the Blues' is a great vocal with a dream backing. If anyone can guide me to a slow, relaxing base/drums/piano trio I'll be most appreciative!

I also like Country music.

Rap - they left the "C" of that word.

Forgot to mention Rap.That is utter rubbish.IMO.
I like some Country Music,but hate the singers that cry and whine.
Check out Toby Kieth,on Utube, Vicki. To me, thats how Country music should sound.

mostly nu-metal but Classic Country (Hank, Johnny Cash, ect) and whatever else sounds good
