lol at Metal fans thinking metal has some of the most talented musicians in it. I love metal too, but thats just not true. There is a lot of talent, but theres also a lot crap, just like anything else. And YES is can be just as formulaic as any other form of music. It really just depends as far as my favorite genre. Sometimes, I wanna listen to metal, sometimes some electronica, sometimes power pop, sometimes country. It really just depends. Lately I've been listening to a lot of Jazz and Fusion like Miles Davis and Pat Metheny.

[QUOTE="z4twenny"][QUOTE="Solid_Link22"]

So reggaeton is the only kind of latin music now?

Solid_Link22

putting words into my mouth much? i wasn't even referring to reggaeton, which i can take in small doses, i was actually referring to tejano music.... basically mexican polka. but aside from some of the real musicians mexico has to offer (lets go with Paco de luca for beginners) majority of it is just that, same bass and chordal progressions through each song. my coworker hates it because i point it out to her whenever she turns her radio over to that, she always asks "so does this song have that too?" at which point i hum it out and she gets pissed. not my fault if the majority of the music churned out isn't that innovative and is generally repetitive. btw, if you're wondering i've been studying music theory, composition and application for the last 10 years or so, so i do have a little foreground to base this on.

I dont care if you're Beethoven himself. All I know is that I like what I like and hate what I hate and that means I like the "simplicity" of regional mexican music.

if you like the musical equivalent of a 2 year old drawing on a napkin with a crayon then fine, enjoy your "art" but don't try to insult something you obviously have no knowledge of.

I'd say Hip-Hop, although lately I've been listening to a lot of shoegaze, bluegrass, and reggae.

The fact that there is crap in it dosn't effect the quaility of the rest of the genre:?

I'm not saying it doesn't, but you can apply that to any other genre, not just metal.

Yes, and watching someone who waves their hand up and down, thinking theyre cool, and saying "Yo G" repeatedly is sooo much better. /sarcasm

I will insult anything I want. You just assume that I have no knowledge of that kind of music. People around me love that kind of music and it's not like being around those people wouldn't make me find a reason to dislike it aint it?

I could find something I liked in each choice pretty easily, but Rock is definitely my favorite.

There's stuff I like in just about every genre (yes, even rap and country), but most of the stuff I really love is Metal, specifically Power Metal.

That's considered a spam post if you were reported. If you do not want to lose points, I would suggest not posting crap like that.

[QUOTE="ChicaQueenWarGa"]ReggaetonSolid_Link22

You shouldn't have said that. I stated my taste for music and theyy are eating me alive.

I didn't say Reggaeton > All music though. :P Reggaeton is my favorite genera, but I also like Pop, Alternative, R&B, Rap. (And sometimes Metal, depending on my mood of music).

i didnt write that, someone else did, go back and look

as for solid link or whatever, obviously you have either no or very very very limited knowledge of music based on what you have said. especially the whole latin music > better than everything else. knock yourself out and insult whatever you want, just expect to get flamed by everybody who knows more than you which appears to be a pretty large chunk of people.

[QUOTE="nikolai37"]Rock but mostly older stuff from the 90's and older. I really think most music today sucks, just my opinion.Darth-Caedus
You should really look past whats on the radio and MTV then:P

Im not really going to go out of my way to hear new music though. I went through my music phase when I was younger, was probably the most important thing to me at the time, now I dont really care that much.

Most electronic music.

Just as long as it's not fruity and is minimal with lyrics.

i like rock and all of its sub-genres. I mostly listen to classic/hard rock though. The only metal I listen to is old metal such as iron maiden, metalica, megadeth, ozzy, etc.

Heavy Metal *The kind where you can actually understand the singer and they aren't screaming their brains out crap*, thrash metal, hard rock, progressive rock/metal. Can't listen to rap/hip-hop/r&b it just sounds all the same to me. Very few difference between songs. There is some classical/opera kind of stuff I can listen to, but I don't have it on my mp3 player.

I listen to basically all genres. My pops told me that music is an easy ice breaker for starting a conversation. Theres always at least one artist in any genre that you can like, so it allows you to talk to anyone regardless of that they like. Thats stayed with me my whole life. My favorite genre is hip-hop.

I voted other since I would say electronic music, Hip Hop is close though.

1 - Electronic Music - Because there's just a wide range of different sounds out there.
2 - Hip Hop
3 - Rock - Favorite forms would be Progressive Rock, Grunge, Indie, Psychedelic.
4 -World - Mostly traditional Indian and Middle Eastern Music as well as Reggae
5 - R&B/Soul
6 - Jazz - Don't listen to much but like it
7 - ****cal
8 - Pop - Limited pop music that I'm into.
9 - Blues
10 - Country - Really limited Country I like. Johnny Cash and old country is about it.

Alternative, I guess. I couldn't really decide on just one genre as my favorite. I love a little bit from everything.
