genres you listen to regularly besides metal

[Alter]

anything......

 

[Killbot]

I listen to a lot of Ambient, Indie-Pop and Electronica.

Occasionally I listen to Folk, Hip-Hop & Punk as well.

EDIT: Damn, I didn't see 80's New Wave.

 

[The Heartbreak Kid]

Classical, Country, 80's New Wave, Disco, and Video game soundtracks.

 

[Astrum]

Hip Hop and Hardcore/metalcore (clearly not on the list).

I have a lot of classical, but I don't listen to it all that much anymore.

 

[Life Sucks]

I only listen to metal. \m/ I am a narrow minded metalhead, and never claimed to be anything else. I used to like some hardcore and punk (though very little punk), but I hardly listen to it at all anymore. There are lots of genres I don't mind at all, like classical and electronica without vocals.

 

[IWP]

Mainly 80s new wave, and occasionlly jazz.

 

[Astrum]

Hip Hop and Hardcore/metalcore (clearly not on the list).

I have a lot of classical, but I don't listen to it all that much anymore.

and I forgot to add punk as well, durr.

 

[Ender Rises]

Grunge should be it's own category.

 

[Astrum]

No

I just listen to whatever I feel like whether it be metal or not.
At the current moment, I've actually been listening to more non-metal than metal. So aside from metal, I listen to electronic, industrial, death rock, hard rock, ambient, and a lot of gothic music and basically any combination of those. I wouldn't say I actively follow any particular genres, but just whichever bands appeal to me.

 

[unknown]

aside from the options I chose, I also listen to a bit of ska

 

[Mr. Nekrophetamine]

Wheres the fucking alternative?

Eh... classical, industrial, trance, and video game OSTs. I'll throw in movie OST's too, enjoying Pan's Labyrinth and 28 Day's Later lately.

Also prog and -core stuff.

 

[zabu of nΩd]

Wheres the fucking alternative?

I kinda wrote that off as "punk/grunge", since I figured that's the primary influence for most of what's known as "alternative rock".

To be honest, I could have used about 10-15 extra options, so that I could have broken up genres like punk/grunge, folk, and industrial, and then added extra stuff like funk, R&B, '60s pop rock, salsa, etc. Oh, and also a "metal is all I listen to" option for people like Life Sucks.

 

[Mr. Nekrophetamine]

Well yeah, and hence the emoticon on my behalf.. ha

I'm surprised you split up electronica and industrial. Most fools put the two together and refer to all of it as "techno"

1 vote for disco... who voted?

What is death rock? I used to listen to mainstream Metal and Nu Metal and Rap before I got into extreme metal. I'm not into the kind of rap people on this forum like Dave and Mort seem to be into I like Southern Rap with a dance club vibe to it like 36 Mafia and a few others, you know, the kind people bounce aorund to and act knda stupid to. But I also liked Eminem and NWA. I haven't listened to a rap CD in forever though, all I listen to now is death and black metal since I was about 17. And about Nu Metal, it doesn't have the same affect on me as it used to, I like the riffs and drums in Slipnot and Korn but the vocals arent what the ytused to be to me. Korn's only good vocals are the aggressive ones, te rest can fuck off as theyre those whiny nu metal vocals, same with Slipknot to an extent though Slipknot>Korn, so basically the only Nu Metal I can listen to is early Mudvayne and Slipknot, the rest is ok stuff. I used to really be into Limp Bizkit, Kid Rock,POD, Godsmack, Disturbed, and Papa Roach when I was lke 13, but by the time I was 15-16 all Nu Metal had got weeded out except Mudvayne and Slipknot. And now I've turned into an only Death/Black Metal person, it's funny how musical tastes evolve.

 

[~Derek~]

I also liked Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails, and Rammstein, but I still think Rammstein is good, just haven't listened to it in a while, not into MM and NIN as much though, that's decrease tastes there too.

 

[Alasdhair]

I listen to folk music when I am not listening to Metal... My favourite Folk band being Albannach at the minute.
