What kind of Katatonia fan are you?

[Keltoi]

I listen to music from all the genres listed. I voted for extreme metal primarily because that is what got me into Katatonia in the first place. Dance of the December Souls was the first Katatonia album I heard and have been a fan ever since.

 

[xXBraveMurderDay]

All of the above.

 

[Kenneth R.]

voted for all the options, although prog and death are my favs.

 

[salient]

Doom/Death is - choice by all times

 

[MECOSARIO]

No place for Punk


...Seriously I listen to everything I find good...But I would say that I very like extreme metal ... and Punk... where's PUNK?:zombie:

 

[Procella]

doom/progressive/gothic

 

[RutgeR]

DEEEAAAAATTHH <takes in breath> MEEHHTUUUUHHHHLLL.

^ LOL
I like to listen to Doom-, Death- and a little bit of Black-metal.
I don't think I have ever heard a Power-metal song (any examples???)

 

[agonija]

voted for progressive and classic / thrash, though I like some gothic bands also as well as doom metal. And I listen to Death Metal since I guess 1989; started with Entombed, Death, Obituary, Vader, Bolt Thrower....

Actually I listen to all genres except black metal, but there is only good and bad music anyway, the most important thing is that we enjoy it; i don`t like thinking in genres anyway....

 

[Dora]

i voted for all and missed another hundred options

 

[Machine_Man]

I'm a big power metal fan myself, I also like melodeath. I quite like doom as well, especially Swallow The Sun

 

[The Poona of Peshwa]

Power metal eg. Rhapsody - Unholy Warcry
Hilarious stuff.

 

[The Bleak Aether]

i started with gothic,followed by doom and finally getting into everything...hehe

 

[Papa Josh]

Can't even answer this one, I listen to a lot of different music besides metal/extreme metal.

 

[insidethefall]

I voted for Doom/death, been on a kick lately...early/mid 90's bands, that was a time - tiamat, paradise lost, katatonia, my dying bride, amorphis, septic flesh, decoryah, anathema...ahh list can go on and on

 

[Hevimees]

I don't think I have ever heard a Power-metal song (any examples???)

Try Rhapsody. I don't listen to much power metal myself, but their albums "Dawn of Victory" and "Symphony of the Enchanted Lands" (the first one) are actually good.


As for the poll I picked all except softer and gothic.

Extreme: Nile, Bloodbath, Emperor and many many more.

Doom: Swallow the Sun and My Dying Bride. I'm new to this kind of music.

Classics: Iron Maiden, Rhapsody. Not much in this category, since I don't like thrash that much.

Progressive: Porcupine Tree, Opeth, Vanden Plas, Arcturus and so on...

 

[Deliverance6]

hmmm.......I truly cant pick one.......I like bands like Red House Painters and aborym.....dodheimsgard and gary Jules......so softer and extreme....make that a category and Ill be able to chose....

good poll though

 

[requiem]

This poll is a bit disappointing, because I fall into a couple of those catergories.

I love black metal, gothic, and doom, so voting for one wouldn't represent the all.

 

[LifeDepraved]

OHHHH there's a three way tie!

 

[requiem]

That's because we're all torn between our allegiances.

 

[elirien]

well i couldn't vote either. i listen to lots of styles wich aren't even listed (like jazz, even funk, classical [bach,vivaldi etc...])

i have a little weird background. i started with megadeth, metallica, testament, sepultura (mainly thrash) began to convert to extreme metal (i played black metal for 4 years) and after that period i began to listen to allmost anything wich is intense and has musical quality. That excludes power and some heavy metal.

Katatonia came in when i was listening to doom-black in 1996. after that they were allways there. i empathise (im sure i wrote it wrong) allmost every song they wrote. They are a little beyond music for me.
