Your music and not your music
 

Another forum I'm on had this thread not too long ago, and I thought it would be an interesting addition to this one. It's very simple. Just tell us the music (genre, artist, whatever you want to do) that you like, and then the stuff you don't like. I'll start.

My music
EBM
industrial
doom metal
futurepop
black metal
trance
classic/prog/art rock

Not my music
drum and bass
rap
opera
radio pop

Like
Almost Everything

Dislike
Gospel
Top40

metal
progressive
alternative
industrial
world
blues
classical
classic rock


hate...........
rap

I like anything with Honesty, Integrity, Originality and Passion.

There's some great rap out there, its not my favorite genre but there's a handfull of amazing shit I wouldn't completely bag it guys.

i like everything as long as it has (as said above) integrity, and/or origionality ... or it's just plain solid .. or it hooks me for whatever reason ..


music i dont like :

the only generalization i can make is :
safe light contemporary adult pop.

Celine
Kenny G
Whitney
phil collins
chris de berg
sting


etc .... you get the drift.

also .. anything that relies on an electric keyboard until the chorus kicks in.

I'll listen to just about any genre. Metal, rap, rock, all those fucking subgenres, bagpipes, spanish opera, J-Pop, electronica, techno, books on tape, the audio from sex scenes, polka, I think I used to have some gregorian chanting at one point.

My:
Rock'n'Roll
Heavy Rock
Ambient
Pop

Hate:
Reagge
Sing Songwriters
Country
new metal

I like all genres of music.

Like:

Metal
Industrial
Classical (mainly strings and opera)

Dislike:

Rap
Pop

Absolutely Detest:

RnB
Divas (such as celine dion or mariah carey)

I should have put diva's on my list but then again,they are mostly on the top 40 list's....

@noct-if you don't mind saying here,what is this other forum-is it a recommended place for music lovers?

there's some wicked good old school gospel out there ...
i'm not a religious guy but i appreciate a powerful voice and harmonies if the music is jumpin'

I heard Mahaila(sp?)Jackson and she's good.
... maybe when I think of gospel,I think of the boring off-key music played in my church growing up:)

yeah, there is nothing more bland and (ironically) uninspired than most church music .. especially the pathetic attempts to modernize it.
You'd think that believers who were trying to express the love they feel for god would put a little more skill and effort into their songs of praise...

the lyrics are for the most part juvinile and childishly simplistic ... and i dont think that was the goal despite the 'we're all gods children thing'

you'd also think that these people would be blessed with a little talent .. but thats just me being a prick.


what i dig is the wailing crash and thunder old time gospel (think Blues Brothers)

a lot of powerful voices started in gospel .. then withered and died on the pop music vine ..


thats progress for you ...

Very True,if it was true spiritual fervor-then it would be nice to HEAR it.

Well,I am curious to know...what are some good gospel music for me to check out?
...I'm all for listening to anything with talent and if there is talented gospel,hell,I'll try any music once or twice-you know?

It's a Wheel of Time forum, actually. So, not really anything specifically music related. As for your gospel question, I would recommend 16 Horsepower. Not really specifically gospel, but many of their songs are very much religious-themed. Not sure if it would be your style though... It's very, very dark bluegrass/country/goth.

I don't really have a particular style of music,I like anything that moves me.
I just tried of hearing the same things on the radio.
In my opinion-there are so many incredible sounds out there to sample-why waste your ears on one type day in day out.
My favorite is still and will always be NIN,although I can't listen to it everyday.

I will check out this suggestion,and thank you.

You're quite welcome. I'd recommend starting off with Secret South as that's probably the most accessible of their records.

I'll do a net search and see if I can hear a sample.
All our music stores are closing around here,so I won't bother:D

everything else is crap... not even worth talking about.

Does...Not...Compute...


*head explodes*

It's a peculiar mixture, to be sure. Let's see... the best way to describe them... you've heard Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, right? Imagine if Nick Cave were actually from the South, instead of just wishing he was, and had become obsessed with country/bluegrass rather than Delta blues and gospel. Make sense?
