Non-metal geners that actually appeal to metalheads

[vgmaster9]

What are many non metal genres and subgenres do you feel that are ones that would appeal greatly to metalheads?

There are lots I can really think of, like psychedelic rock, garage rock, prog rock, southern rock, stoner rock, post-rock, grindcore, neofolk, dark ambient, classical, jazz fusion, free jazz, grunge, drone, punk rock, anarcho punk, horror punk, crust punk, hardcore punk, D-beat, IDM, psytrance, metallic hardcore, martial industrial, power electronics, harsh noise, death industrial, EBM, power noise, industrial rock, gothic rock, deathrock, darkwave, neoclassical darkwave, underground/old school rap, psychobilly, outlaw/alternative country, noise rock, gabber, speedcore, breakcore, powerviolence, electro industrial, aggrotech, shoegaze, digital hardcore, thrashcore, terrorcore, dark/punk cabaret, japanoise, street punk, synthpop, trip hop, and goregrind.

My favourites out of that list are neofolk and martial industrial although I do like a bit of punk from time to time oh and some prog rock (Rush are awesome!).

 

[JakeHornGuitar]

I'd say Jazz (Fusion, Bebop, Smooth, Traditional, etc.), Prog rock, Punk and it's subgenres, Ambient, Classical, and Shoegaze would probably be the easiest for a metalhead to get into but that's just going from my tastes. There is some awesome Pop and Bluegrass/Country music though.

 

[Satanstoenail]

Anything and everything.

 

[Heavymetalzombie666]

Blues, Jazz, Classical, Various forms of Rock music.

Neo-folk, gothic rock, dark ambient, and neoclassical darkwave, because most internet metalheads have shit taste in non-metal.

 

[Serjeant Grumbles]

I don't listen to much neo-folk or dark ambient, but that's fucking stupid. Listening to kpop constitutes shit taste in non-metal, not any of those aforementioned genres, which are dark, after all.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Dark = good? That's what people with bad taste in both metal and non-metal would have you believe.

 

[Serjeant Grumbles]

What an odd thing to say. No one would "have me believe" anything, since I already know what sounds good to me. It's not like the cool kids told me it was good and I just took their word for it.

 

[GloryoftheEmpire]

Anything but Country and Pop music... maybe some of either isnt so bad though.

 

[Belac]

I'm a fan of Classical, Country, old Rock and the more ambient side of synth and electronic music (not dance type stuff or bass worship though)
