what is your fav genre of music and why?

mine will always be Classical. some does plod along, boring the hell out of me, particulary modern stuff. but its best works are just majestic and i wish there were classical music night clubs 4 working class scum like me

Fortuna imperatix mundi
Air on a G-string
Adiago for strings
Beethoven's 9th
Beethovens moonlight sonata
Beethovens 4th piano concerto
Hallujuh(sp)
Ave Maria
Eligar 3rd symphony

Metal.

i like alot of these genres. some nu-metal, punk, heavy, death, black etc. i,m of the impression 90% of rock.metal is crap. its quite a weak genre.

but at its best it is incrediable. and it all sounds good played loud at a nightclub. defenity the genre of choice 4 a night out.

some favs...(only a few)

Evanescence, lots of there stuff

Guns and roses

Sweet child of mine
November rain

Metallica-lots of stuff except new stuff.

Mortiis- a goth metal techno hybrid. smell the witch top draw.

Arch enemy- Death metal at its best ( its a VERY weak genre normally)

Cradle of filth- very good black metal

linkin park- a rare ting...quality nu-metal (also a VERY weak genre).

nightwish... new albulm is classical/metal fusion. and oh, dont forget wishmaster.

This is reffering to who?

Nobuo Uematsu is not a music genre. He writes video game music for frick's sake - some people make him out to be up there with the Beethovens and Bachs! At best you could call his music pop-classical. If you want decent 'music generally associated with the video entertainment industry', go for John Williams or Ennio Morricone.

Jeez.

Anyhoo... I like rock, but I'm pretty picky these days. Nu-metal bands are pretty boring. Some metal is ok, as along as I can distinguish it from the sound of a pig being slaughtered. Emo is ok as long as its not wussy emo. Keane and Snow Patrol can :eep::eep::eep::eep: off. Guns and Roses is good for a chuckle, but Velvet Revolver seem to be a much more credible outfit. Anything bluesy is good.

Rap well NaS...

I chose Indie, Emo, punk (sort of..) and Other. Other, for me, would be Alternative.

Nowadays I'm listening to Interpol, Broken Social Scene, The Sugarcubes, Death cab for Cutie and just a little bit of Björk.

I agree with you there. I truly don't believe he is some kind of god of music, I just see him as a video game music composer. The best video game music composer, in my opinon, would have to Akira Yamaoka.

I said rap, classical, and of course if Turkish or Mediterranean music was on there I'd select it also

Is classic rock general rock? I haven't even heard of all those metal categories. I just classify it all as 'loud'. :)

I also chose Classical, Rap, and of course, Uematsu.

Punk rock is my favorite. Real punk rock, not the crap on the radio. We're talkin Dead Kennedys, Narcoleptic Youth, The Skulls, Subhumans, Naked Aggression kinda stuff.

And of course, Japanese music (most of it), classic rock, classical, and so on.

Progressive rock and general rock is practically all I listen to.

You forgot New Wave, dude

chaos: J-Pop all the way!

Rubedo: Go Two-Mix!

Trowa: *Runs off to hear Just Communication*

i have to disagree. Uematsu is easily up there with the great classical artists imho. he does not plod along for years either. and he is better then most modern classical.

thats just my opinion though.
