What kind of music do you listen to?

I generally stick to R&B, classic rock, alternative rock, grunge, any genre related to electronic (trance, techno, etc..) but also sometimes hip-hop although I must admit new hip-hop is absolutely terrible with very very few exceptions to a few songs/artists.

 

I'm a very mainstream kind of person, which isn't bad! I like pop, pop/rock, pop/r&b, basically... anything pop. I also like r&b, rock, foreign music (Korean, French, Japanese, Chinese, Italian, Spanish), Asian folksy music, classical music, the absolutely spectacular works from Joe Hisaishi (he has made the soundtracks to Miyazaki movies), and umm... some other genres too.

One thing that I can't stand is autotune. I understand if it is used ONLY as a simple effect or a small correction on a few notes, but when artists use it ALL the time... it is extremely annoying. I can't stand listening to robots. Artists like Ke$ha, T-Pain, Lil' Wayne, and others like them... awful. Something that I really like about country is that autotune hasn't really penetrated as much as pop, especially pop, and artists still have to know how to sing to succeed in that genre. I still don't really like listening to country music though, only a few select artists that have a country + pop feel.

 

I'm really into prettymuch every sub-genre of rock and metal. I actually got my first Android product just for music. It's an Archos 5 Internet Tablet 500GB. I got it so I could have all my music with me all the time and run simple last.fm scrobbler in the background. It runs Android 1.6, I think they called that one Donut. It's the perfect mp3 player and great for movies too.

 

I'll listen to almost anything. Mostly rock and pop, though. I spent tonight at work alternating between SLOT, Dommin, Ke$ha, and Rammstein.

Red Hot Chili Peppers, System of a Down, The White Stripes, Mindless Self Indulgence, Placebo, Tenacious D, Queens of the Stone Age, Barenaked Ladies, The Cure, Lewis Black, Underoath, Alec Holowka, Bill Hicks, Gorillaz, Static-X, ABBA, George Carlin, blink-182, Misfits, The String Quartet, KoЯn, AFI, Aphex Twin, Bloodhound Gang, Johnny Cash, Dane Cook, The Offspring, Jim Gaffigan, The Left Rights, David Cross, Daft Punk, Goldfinger, Mitch Hedberg, Swollen Members, HIM, Avenged Sevenfold, Ozzy Osbourne, Radiohead, Nekromantix, Metallica, The Who, Rancid, Chris Rock, Sublime, White Zombie, Green Day, The Beatles, Weezer, Pearl Jam, The Smashing Pumpkins.

We have pretty much the same taste in rock music with some exceptions to the bands listed above.

 

Add me to the list

but i think i would add nickelback and t-pain and motorhead and linkin' park and limp bizkit and hilary duff to my own rock collection

 

Im with soFlo i have alot of different types of music in my library. The most i listen to is Hip Hop (New School and old school), and Reggaeton (huge fan). I listen to both English ans spanish music House, techno, dubstep, r&b, rock, pop, just not country though (no offense)
Music is a hobby of mine i have my own blog site www.realtalkhiphop.net that i started with a friend but we post diff kinds not just hip hop

 

You gotta keep in mind that some of those bands I haven't listened to in forever, Last.fm has been tracking everything I listen to since '05 and those are just my most played bands, Latley I've been into Deadmau5, QotsA, Jay-Z, White Panda (and other mashups), Some old Eminem, and Gorillaz

 

Oh I didn't even know about your little comment on mainstream artists until this. lol I was like "What is he talking about?" hehe.

+1 for not being able to listen to hardcore music. I'm assuming you mean like heavy metal, death metal, and such, right? I can't stand people screaming at me in person, so I definitely will not pay to listen to people scream at me with a little tune. lol

popular music!

 

I like most music, as long as it's not the X Factor/Justin Bieber style pop.

My Last.fm

 

Mostly metal/hard rock. Killswitch Engage and Tool are quite possibly the best bands around right now. But I listen to all different kinds except for hip hop/rap, some of the older stuff was good but the new crap is just horrible. I could care less how many houses, cars and gold chains these douches have and that seems to be all they sing about.

Anyways, some examples: NIN, old Manson, Metallica(Black albumn and back), Tori Amos, Amon Amarth, As I Lay Dying, old country(when it was still country), System, Lady Gaga, Trance/House techno, Five Finger Death Punch, Trivium, Foo Fighters, Black Tide, H.I.M. and many many more.
