What's your favorite genre on music?

[The Man]

Black metal (Enslaved, Drudkh, Emperor, Panopticon, Wolves in the Throne Room, etc.), progressive rock (Genesis, Yes, King Crimson, The Mars Volta, Porcupine Tree, Van der Graaf Generator, etc.), avant-garde/zeuhl/RIO (Captain Beefheart, Tom Waits, Univers Zero, Magma, Henry Cow, etc.), post-rock (Godspeed You! Black Emperor and A Silver Mt. Zion mostly), hardcore (mostly Dead Kennedys but assorted other groups like Crass and Amebix as well), grunge (Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, etc.), alternative (Sonic Youth, The Smashing Pumpkins, Jane's Addiction, Radiohead, etc.), post-punk (Joy Division, Television, Swans, etc.), folk (Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Fearthainne, Comus, etc.), doom metal (Neurosis, Tiamat, Empyrium, Reverend Bizarre, Esoteric, etc.), death metal (Death, Gorguts, Immolation, Incantation, The Chasm, Lykathea Aflame, Atheist, Cynic, etc.), folk metal (Moonsorrow, Falkenbach, Windir, Hollenthon, etc.), game soundtracks (Nobuo Uematsu, Yasunori Mitsuda, Hiroki Kikuta, etc.), avant-garde/progressive metal (Arcturus, maudlin of the Well, Kayo Dot, Mirrorthrone, Edge of Sanity, etc.), '60s/'70s pop/rock (The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Todd Rundgren, etc.), jazz (most notably Miles Davis and Sun Ra, but others as well, especially Coltrane), hip-hop (Beastie Boys, MF DOOM, Dälek, etc.), classical & minimalism (Gustav Holst, Richard Strauss, Ludwig van Beethoven, Philip Glass, Steve Reich, etc.).

Some of these styles are way more represented in my listening than others. The metal, progressive, and avant-garde genres are probably the most frequent, probably followed by alternative, grunge, and '60s/'70s rock. That said, by far the most played artist on my Last.fm charts is post-rock (GY!BE).

[Raistlin]

I mostly listen to various subgenres of metal. I'm terrible at actually identifying subgenres, though.

[Hythloday]

I listen only to riot funk.

[Cuchulainn]

1. hip hop. 2 dubstep 3. metal.

[G13]

All kinds of rock, except the banshee-deathwail-screeching demon-pig shriek . I've been getting into some emoish stuff lately, which makes me ashamed of myself. I mostly listen to alternative rock and metal.

[Shiny]

I like literally every genre there is except screamo because that is annoying. Oh I also haven't heard anything ska related that I like yet.

[Momiji]

I don't really have a preference anymore. I'll listen to anything, really, and if I like it, all the better. I'm always open to suggestions.

Only thing I can definitely say I don't like is country music. :<

I just realized you have King Crimson in that post.

[The Man]

But of course

[The Man]

that's a genre I need to explore beyond Sonic Youth and Big Black. Though I guess MBV could technically count as a noise-rock artist as well, though they're obviously also shoegaze.

[Shiny]

Why wouldn't they be?

[The Man]

I imagine there won't be any problems as long as you keep to youtube and other similar services.
