[darkfalcon62]

sorry i have no idea how to spell or say the word so anyway what type of music do you like?

i prefer punk rock heavy metal classic rock and stuff

[Meek]

I like a little bit of everything.

I'm mainly Alternative Rock, Funk, and Classic Rock. I like Metal, just not too metal. Techno is alright as well.

[¿CRAZYØ¿]

Good job missing a few major genres. I'm a metal fan myself.

[Skellybones]

METAL \m/ #### YEAH \m/

[ssgtGrimreaper]

I suggest removing the poll and letting people say their own favorites.
I like speed, thrash, and power metal, post-punk, punk, classic rock, ska, reggae, and stoner metal.

[Final217]

Classic rock is not a genre.

Anyway, for me it's probably Progressive Rock.

[ssgtGrimreaper]

Classic rock is not a genre.I fail to see why.
It encompasses the large amount of music from the '60s-'80s.
Do you have some other name for it?

[Spock]

You missed every type of music I listen to.
Breakbeat
Drum'n Bass
Jungle
Trance
Hard Trance
JungleBreak

[anarchy11]

[I Faw Down]

Classic rock FTW! Led Zeppelin+Rush+The Who+Pink Floyd+AC/DC> 3 Chamillianare+3 Eminem+3 any kind of dumb rapper or hip-hop "artist" stick with the good stuff (read the sig)

I do not like any of the genres up there except heavy metal... and punk rock... well kinda...

[darkfalcon62]

there are a lot of genres so i didnt add them all because i only know like 10 or so

and i left out a few i like techno thrash metal most bands from the 70`s and 80`s

[I Faw Down]

Down with the of the hordes of untalented "artists" of today!

Have you noticed that most of the women singers at the macys day parade look alike?

[.Valhalla.]

Progressive rock, metal, ambient, alternative, and other stuff that's kind of out any genres. To tell you the truth I didn't really like putting a label on music, it makes people think it has to be like one thing.

Not that I like these genres, but you left out a major one like country for example.

[RocStar]

Hip-Hop.
I think very little members on the forums like rap or hip-hop.

[Monster Hunter King]

[e p]

Ska/Punk Rock

[Fabian920]

[Woolfenstien]

Where's Black Metal on that list?

*votes heavy metal anyway*

Wut Is The Matter With U Ppl Rap Is The Music To Listen To Not Heavy Metal!!!!!!!!!!!

[ssgtGrimreaper]

Wut Is The Matter With U Ppl Rap Is The Music To Listen To Not Heavy Metal!!!!!!!!!!!First off, http://maddox.xmission.net/keyboard4.jpg
Second off, learn how to spell.
Third off, voice your opinions in less idiotic ways.
For example, instead of "WUT IS THE MATTER WITH U PPL RAP IS THE MUSIC TO LISTEN TO NOT HEAVY METAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!", try something like "I prefer listening to rap over heavy metal because of [reasonable reasons]."

EDIT: Happy Chronic?

[Chronic]

Alright, first of all, why did you delete my post?! Who did I insult?! I simply said that he/she should research more deeply into the genre matter, since not even .01% of all the genres were put into that poll! And also because not even I know all the genres, or I would be ruling the **** out of the music industry by now....

Aha, mistake! To users such as those, you need to put [reasonable reasons] or they could simply state reasons to be things such as:
a) COS T R0%0R5 Y0UR B0%0R05!!!!
b) C05 R4PZ0R5 15 |_337|\|35555555!!!11!!1shift+une!!
c) etc. etc.

Do you have some other name for it?
1. If classic rock is 60's-80's then what does rock in the 50's count as?

2. Classic Rock isn't a genre. It is a time period in the history of rock and roll. In that time period, there were multiple, dignified genres of rock. Do you realize what you are doing by calling the entire decade of rock from the 60's to 80's (When it was most popular) one genre? You are putting together:

ACDC and The Beatles
Led Zeppelin and Bill Haley and his Comets
Johnny Cash and Jimi Hendrix
Kiss and Stix

To say all of these musics are the same style is dumb. So there.

[Ryan200666]

heavy metal is good

I just call the rock of that era Classic Rock.
I don't call them all the same style.
I'll say classic rock, then throw out some band names.
Bands from that era are probably more easily recognized as classic rock than as their specific genre.

No.

Obviously when someone says "Classic Rock" you think of the greats. You think "Beatles, Zeppelin, Queen, Hendrix, Jesus". When you say "Classic Rock" you don't think, for instance, Santana. But the second anyone says latin rock, I can't help but having Oye Como Va being played in my head.

Bands from "that era" had tons of diversity in them, as do bands of "this era". You can not possibly think of every single important band, and every single widely-recognized subgenre that came out of "that era" when somebody says "Classic Rock", and you certainly can't just rattle off ten or 15 names, and think you have covered everything "that era" has to offer.

[№ç†ŭŗŋє]

I listen to heavy metal and alternative equally

[Warrior13]

I listen to Metal, Heavy Metal, Punk, Chamber, Alternative, and some rap.

[BookMasterJMV]

I listen mainly to country, but don't mind some pop, rock, and oldies. Country is my rock, however. :p

[FemaleSAPlaya]

Hip-Hop.
I think very little members on the forums like rap or hip-hop.

Well, im one of them, but i listen to mostly hip-hop than rap.

My favorite type is R&B. It seems like im the only one who listens to R&B so far on these forums.

[Jimbimanim II]

Any type of metal, except 80s stuff.

[ssgtGrimreaper]

Any type of metal, except 80s stuff.O.O
Except 80s stuff?
No Iron Maiden?
Judas Priest?
Van Halen?
:O

No, not really. I listen to R&B aswell, although it's not obvious, since a couple of threads I started concerning "XGeners" to stop harrassing Hip Hop, Rap, R&B, etc. for a number of reasons (of which I shall not list, since I have gone through the ardous job of carefully going over all of them in that one thread I will revive in a few moments).
Many people enjoy R&B in XGen, even the ones who constantly blabber about such genre being the "most mainstream ever, and the utter musical poop-hole", although they harrass it so they can "fit in with the crowd".

[Joest]

I love Punk, Post-Punk, Alternative, Art Rock, Pop-Rock, Indie Rock, Collage Rock, Classic Rock, New Wave and some Grunge.

I like listening to a wide range of music, not just one type/band (Like some people here).
