Rapcore.
People that just say rap are morons.
Keep an open fucking mind.

Well... I'll admit that there was a time when I disliked certian genres. Like Country and hip-hop rap... but I listened to a few rap artists that were actually talented and there are some really sweet DJ groups out there like Infected Mushroom and Birdy Nam Nam. I'm still not really into country but I do like folk music.

I love metal, but I can't stand some bands with vocalists who outwardly refuse to sing. I hate that screamo/death growl crap. Great music, superb guitar playing and drumming... but get a better vocalist please.

Other than that pretty much all music is fine.

This only applies to more mainstream punk acts.

And punk doesn't promote nonconformity for noncomformitys sake. You're just too pre-occupied with your bullshit strawman to get that.

lolololol

i have yet to hear some good japanese rap, but some korean rap is amazingly fast and flows great

anyways the worst genre is power metal and anyone who disagrees is a such a huge faggot and they're probably playing world of warcraft or something anyway

Metal is stupid. Fact, not opinion.

Just harder emo music.

Dont listen to metal. If you do then you are a republican, and being a republican is worse then being a child rapist/killer

Music sucks and the best sound is either the sound of somebody reading scripture or silence.

Its not a fact. Its a fucked up opinion. I suggest you watch the implications of what you say more carefully.

I really dislike those SLOW ASS SONGS. Slow paced songs kill me (most of em).

Though I've grown to love pop and rock and jazz more, I dont mind R&B, Rap and occational Alternative and metal.

Just hope its fast paced and all.

I think every genre has good points and bad points. If I had to choose, emo. Emo is lame because it's just sad song after sad song. I can understand that one sad song that is well thought out and well played as a good song but, after a whole album of that shit it's more of whining.

i hate whatever music the guy in the flat below me plays, it's some for of dance music but the whole genre seems to have one bass line, just goes thud thud thud thud thud. no variation, it's like a metronome. was there a meeting when the genre was created and they said "ok, we're on a budget, so it's just gonna be the one bass line, you can't be in our genre without it"

that's one of the annoying things about genre, that people think it should define the music they make/listen to. it's the other way around, the music you make defines the genre, that way the music can actually grow. that's why ska has progressed from skinhead music to listen to after beating up minorities, to the happy bouncy sound it is today

I dislike Country, Western, Bebop (-Jazz) and softrock (HARDROCK RULEZ)

I tend to believe that all rap music sucks.

Ok, someone got the history of ska a bit wrong.

It started as Jamaican musicians interpreting American Jazz in their own way. It landed in Britain with caribian immigrants, who hung around with working class white kids, who got interested in Soul and Ska. At that time, Skinheads were just a working class youth subculture centred around a certain fashion, but it was mostly apolitical. During the 70's, however, the National Front (a facist organisation) started recruiting skinheads, and there was a division between the Spirit of '69 skins (later forming the core of SHARP, SkinHeads Against Racial Prejudice) and the NF Skins. NF Skins wouldn't really listen to Ska anymore, they had their own music, mostly agressive white-supremacist punk, like Skrewdriver (that started as an apolitical band, but was abandoned by the more leftist members around when the singer got into the NF scene).

In the early 80's 2 Tone ska came from the punk subculture. 2 Tone was more political and sided with the leftists and anarchist, and the newly formed Rock Against Racism movement. 3rd Wave came a lot later, and is highly apolitical, and more party orientated, and mostly centered around the US.

Hope that enlightened you a bit.

......

interesting, all i knows is that ska used to be listened to by skinheads to rev themselves up before beating on pakistanis in the past. and this i learned from people who were actually alive back then and saw it first hand. this was in britain, i dunno about anywhere else.

indie literally means INDEPENDENT RECORD/LABEL

It is not a style of music.

fucking ignorance

Everything goes for me, but the ones I like the least are rap and some shitty pop.

once that may have been true, now it has another meaning. from what i can tell it means bland music and tight trousers. i used to like the music that people called indie that came out a few years back, now it's gotten kinda boring mostly

you see that is what I would call radio indie

i.e. what the NON-independent labels feed you

way to fall for it.

cool i'll add it to my list of terms that i want to put into popular use, like calling indians/pakistanis sub-continentals instead of how brits call them asians, it's not specific enough and gets confusing since americans say asian to describe orientals

I really dont see the point to all that mainstream pop crap. Cant stand it. Death and Black Metal for me thanks =)

In The UK, the music press started to use the term to refer to Alternative Rock bands who were part of the Post-Punk Revival who basically copy the angular guitar sounds of groups like Wire, Gang Of Four and The Fall, only they tend to do it terribly.

Old Rock N' Roll: Pink Floyd was dreary, Led Zeppelin was generic, and The Beatles are dead.

I don't know if it's considered a genre, but I heavily dislike the music from musicals. Makes me want to punch their bratty singing faces into a bratty pulp.

My least favorite genre is any that requires the vocalist to scream, such as metal or screamo.

Tons of kids seem to like it at my school, but I prefer to understand what the singer is singing.

No, your attitude, that is juvenile metal-loving, and bullshit anti-rap etc. strawman arguments are a majority of the thread.
