Rock and Classical, or a combination of the two ;) . Throw in a little dubstep and a little punk from time to time. I also am a big fan of professional choir music, with or without accompaniment, especially in non-english as it makes it more akin to another instrument (words just get in the way lol).

On phone won't let me vote. You know when I was in my teens to early 20's rap was my .mainstay with a little country and classic (80's) rock thrown in there. Now, I don't really listen to music in the same way. I just listen to whatever is on the radio. I change stations depending on my mood, but I don't purchase or download music. And, I'll be damned if I know half the names of songs or bands. I enjoy music, just I don't care who's singing/rapping, i just want a nice beat and someone who doesn't sound like a fucking degenerate who I can't understand.

Especially, rap. When I like rap, 90's B.I.G., Tupac, Nore, Mobb Deep and, well, you get what I liked. They told a story and the song had meaning. You could understand what they are singing.

This rap today....I don't give a Fuck how you're posted up in fucking club!!! I don't care how you dance. I just don't. I can't understand half of them and it's the same 5 lines repeated over and over and over. Lil Wayne is the greatest rapper ever????? That fucking whining, crying little punk. I pity today's youth. I don't list to any modern rap anymore, very rarely a song will come along I like. Its usually just whatever is on the radio, for me. And, no I don't like heavy metal where they scream and can't understand a word, it's the same as that shity rap. I gotta hit the way back machine to enjoy a song usually.

Sing it, man! LOL! You feel strongly about this topic in lieu of you not "purchasing" any of it - which is totally cool, of course, just messing with ya.

I like Public Enemy back in the day - as you say, they rapped about something in those days - pretty funny ( accurate ) summation of what it's about today.

>no screamo option

I mostly listen to metal, but I also like a couple of screamo/emo bands and a bit of classical.

Black metal, death metal, heavy metal, a bit of power metal. Basically the good stuff.

Agreed! Great subgenres! Any melodic death metal/folk metal? That's what I've been listening to the most lately. Stuff like Children of Bodom, Wintersun, Ensiferum, Kalmah, etc.

I don't really have a favorite genre...

I don't find myself liking much metal, or punk, ska, mainstream country, dance or most radio-play pop though.

I like a couple of melodeath songs (for example Arch Enemy - Fields of Desolation), but overall it's not my style. Some of my favorite bands include Deathspell Omega and Svartidauði.

Three was not enough choices ;).

I listen to basically everything - except country but my reactive dismissal of that is waning as I get older.

90s indie is probably 'my music', but I like most stuff.  I've starting listening to classical music in the car - no DJ's wittering and very relaxing.  I don't really get metal, but do like Mastodon.

Good stuff. Another band worth checking out would be Funeral Mist if you haven't heard of them. They're on the same label as DO.

Noted! I've been listening to a bit of Carach Angren lately. Symphonic Black metal trio. Fun stuff. I like " The sighting is a portent of doom"

Yeah, I broke that down into different categories - think Rave might be what you could vote for, that or House.
