Music... We hear it everyday and it surrounds us in its sublime melody. The question I'm asking you is what's your FAVORITE genre, band and song. You could even give us a link to your song for people to rate it. Whatever.
Me personally... I love Rock. Rap on the other hand... I HATE. My favorite bands range from Red Hot Chili Peppers to The Killers. But my favorite band is Queens of the Stone Age. My favorite song is Burn The Witch, by Queens of the Stone Age.
At least this one had a range of choices, lol.
Type: Indie
Genre: Rock (It's very broad, but covers what I like)
Current Artist: The Postal Service
Current Song: Nothing Better (by said artist)
Country + Rap = Crap
(Tis a joke, but tis still true)
I don't like HipHop or Pop, either. Most of that stuff is "I'm horny, freak me now. lets do drugs yay we're rich" etc.
In general, some good bands I listen to are:
Death Cab for Cutie
The Postal Service
Relient K
Switchfoot
Dave Matthews Band
Ben Folds
Aqualung
Blues Traveler
Carbon Leaf
Beck
Interpol
Modest Mouse
Mike Doughty
Nickel Creek
R.E.M.
Snow Patrol
Matt Nathanson
The Faint (particularly Glass Dance)
Of course, I like most every techno. I do not, however, like vocal techno.
Its gotta be the techno, all the way
Hard thumpin beats all night while ravin out, just enjoying the music
to me thats amazing
Eh... Some techno is ok but I find it gets way too repetitive... I don't even know half the bands you listed Kow other than Aqualung( ), Modest Mouse, Relient K and DMB. I like Switchfoot though. way more then just one genre. i like anything from rap metal to ska.
my faviorite bands are combos of all the genres i like
Rock
More speically Metal Rap, also known as Rage Against the Machine.
My favorites are sort of a mix of many types of rock...
Hence NIN.
If you say they're industrial, I smack you. So many of their songs are different styles, I can't even say they -have- a style.
Depending on the mood I'm in...
"Self Destruction" series - (I don't even know what to call this...metal + techno + rhythm?)
"Metal" - Relaxing groove involving many instruments (at least after the 3 and 1/2 minute mark)
The entire "Pretty Hate Machine" album - Electro or something, sounds like bad 80's music combined with lyrics that I chose to not write down because it's too emo nowadays, and blah blah....but I like it. Especially "Down in it" "Head Like a Hole" is overplayed to me, and I've lost some of it's taste. "Sin", "Kinda I Want To", all great songs, good drums on this whole album, and the melodies on various ones are so...I can't explain it. Catchy? Wrong word, but oh well. I guess you gotta be me to understand what the hell I just said...
Where is Everybody - Both versions are nice.
Closer - I wish this song didn't exist.
Closer (Precursor) - Nice...slow...beautiful version
Closer to God - Faster version that I prefer to the 'classic' *cough*
So many more but it takes too damn long to list so I won't bother.
Oh yeah
Burn. <== Yummerful to the maxxxxxxx.......
Rap. Yeah.. It's 50. 1 shot 1 kill whats the deal? Yeah whats the deal.. Listen little homie, when it rains it pours... O.o oops got alittle carried away there
. But ya I love rap.
Since you generalized Electronic Music, I picked Techno (Which is a Genre of Electronic Music)
Take some Acid, then go listen to Electronic Music at a Rave. That = PWN
(Also, Acid does not do what everyone says it does. Just a note)
I have wide musical tastes, but I'd say rock, simply because there's more songs I like that fit that genre.
I listen to speed metal, hard rock and classical music.
I listen to everything but Rap, rap is so boring the only thing people do is go on stage and throw out words at the top of their lungs that people cant even understand! I mostly listen to country though. Country is mostly about a story, that goes along into a soft flow. I am not gay or anything I just enjoy the story the song tells!

Death Metal, electronica, hard rock. All fits your description of rap
And Balads have the same story that country has
I like many kinds of rock. Sometimes even metal (but not death) like Avenged sevenfold, Sonata Arctica, and a few others not as heavy as them.
What I absolutely cannot stand is Rap. Most of them sound like trash. There are a few exceptions though, but still I get sick of it.

I've heard of Megadeath and Motorhead... That's it. I can't stand Avenged Sevenfold... Hate them... Their new stuff is crap... It's just yelling... I hate 50¢. Arghh I hate him. Its like listening to a blur of words as he mumbles them out into a microphone... And his new game and movie? Get Rich or Die Tryin? Don't even get me started...
CLASSICAL AND CLASSICAL ORCHESTRA!!!!!!
LYRICS SUCK!!!!!! XD
Maybe some instrumental blues, too. Mostly all by the same composer though :\
Eeeeeww... The only song I really like with orchestras in it are Guns N' Roses - November Rain and The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony.
Ewww so many rap haters -.-
But if I were you and the only rap I heard was what was on BET and MTV then I would say it sucked also. But, im not stupid enough to think that thats the only artists there are. Many songs more than not have a story line and are not just retarded blabbing like lil jon or whatever stereotypical artist you can name.
(Cough)
Noobs. -.-
I myself love Soft Rock. I like other different genre of music, but soft rock is best to me. It doesn't give me head aches at the end of a song and I can actually understand what the hell they are saying.
Metal gets me in the mood. Gets me in the mood of running around and happy lol.
