What is your favorite primary genre of music


  • Total voters
    105
Classic hard/prog rock, heavy metal (before shit like nu/black/death metal ruined it), Folk influenced classical music from the Romantic period to the Modern period (in the vein of composers like Oliver Messiaen, Steve Reich, Bartok and Stravinsky and Spanish classical music in general) and jazz fusion are what I listen to for the most part.
 
Metalpunk gang represent! I also like Folk music (especially Celtic Folk), Country, Progressive Rock, Industrial Rock, New Wave, Coldwave, Darkwave and other odd favorites.

Genres I like for Punk: '77-style Punk, Horror Punk, Deathrock, Goth Rock, '80s Post-Punk, Oi!/RAC, '80s Hardcore, Post-Hardcore, Japanese Hardcore, UK82, Thrashcore, Crossover Thrash, Sludge, some Anarcho-Punk, Metal-oriented Grindcore, Metal-oriented Crust / Stenchcore, some Powerviolence

Indifferent towards: Cowpunk, Beatdown Hardcore, Melodic Hardcore, everything else not listed

Dislike: Ska Punk, Psychobilly, Riot Grrrl, Folk Punk, Queercore, Pop Punk, Post-Punk Revival, Indiefuck shit

Depending on how you feel about New Wave, I'm into the more Post-Punk oriented bands along with Coldwave and Minimal Wave. There are some New Romantic / Synthpop bands I like, but they're the exception, not the rule.

For Metal: '70s and '80s Metal, NWOBHM, Doom, Sludge, Thrash, Black, Gothic, Glam, OSDM, Power, Speed, Death/Doom, '90s Metalcore

Indifferent towards: Groove, Nu-Metal, Alt-Metal, Funk Metal

Dislike: 2000s Metalcore, Djent, Blackgaze

Other is punk and muh old-timey goth music. I'm sad OP somehow excluded both.

Edit: I suppose we could file both under 'rock,' if we're really generalizing. Disregard my spergery.

This is a much better poll, btw.
