I don't know if you guys just don't listen to a lot of different kinds of music or if you didn't understand what I was asking, but whatev xD

and roto, I'm doing this so don't have to make a special playlist with a bunch of artists. Like I could just display 'goth rock' and have icon and the black roses, charon, and HIM (a playlist I make a lot actually), or 'classic rock' and then I'd have scorpions, beatles, pink floyd, blue oyster cult, etc.

basically I'm tired of sorting by artist or albums! and trying to order music in a logical way based on sound (I also use Moody to store a mood in the comments tag )

[Rengori]

I listen to lots of metal mostly, I'm not picky with metal, as long as it doesn't suck. Death metal, black metal, thrash, power metal, folk, doom, metalcore, again, as long as it doesn't suck.

Then when I need a break from metal I'll listen to grunge, classical, hard rock, and J-rock. Then again with music, as long as it doesn't suck I'll listen to it. I just focus most of my resources on metal mostly.

Seriously. xD I ignored it because I'm a douche like that.

As far as I'm concerned, they've been dead since Midian.

[Boney King]

I don't bother to sort by genre at all. I sort by artist name. So much easier that way.

Basically this.

I find especially with metal, people like to nitpick around with genres, and it gets annoying to see people cry, "OMG THAT BAND ISN'T FUNERAL DEATH BLACK METALCORE, THEY'RE HEAVY THRASH-METALCORE WITH JAZZ INFLUENCES". I'd rather not fall into that trap.

I'd really love to see some Funeral/Death/Black/Metalcore, or Thrash/Metalcore with Jazz influences because those'd be some hella awesome bands.

I think Post-Progressive Avantgarde Experimental Blackened Doomcore with heavy Bluegrass influences to be right up your alley.

[scrumpleberry]

I honestly can't be bothered to define all my songs as post-punk revival smashing or dollhouse hardcore jazz or whatever. I just put "ish" on the end if I'm talking to a friend.

(For iTunes i leave it as what the song came with or use wikipedia)

Still awful.

On a related note, nothing beats blackened post-melonoise/neo-mushroomcore pigsmurfgrind crossover anyway.

[I Don't Need A Name]

anything without lyrics about 'chillin wit ma bitches' or 'slappin hoes'

[daggertrepe]
