Heavy Metal. Most things with screaming/growling that has actual lyrics are gold to me. Ice Nine Kills manages to blend that with my love of the horror genre, and discovering them felt like finding a new home.
I'll listen to almost anything at least once. The only genre I actively avoid is current country. If I had to pick in genre, it would be early 2000's emo.
The most recent album I listened to all the way through was Wellerman - The Album by Nathan Evans. Put on Wellerman, the song, for my son. Ended up liking the whole album.
My most listened albums are probably a toss-up between Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge (My Chemical Romance), College Dropout (Kanye), Deloused in the Comatorium (The Mars Volta), or Toxicity (System of a Down).
Amd according to my "Your Spotify" instance, my most listened artist of the last year was Alt-J.
I tend to hyperfixate though, so I'll listen to the same album/genre for weeks/months, then not listen to it at all for months while I listen to something else.
Also, for anyone that selfhosts and uses Spotify, Your Spotify is nice to have for threads like this.
Last four concerts were Erykah Badu, Blood Red Shoes, Marcy Playground and Tears for Fears. They were all amazing and you can't really go wrong with any album from any of them.
Drake, 90s rap, classic rock and Tame Impala.
I’m into everything tbh.
Lately I’ve been getting into the following:
Teenage Fanclub (song is The Concept)
The Lemon Twigs (song is In My Head)
Tainy (song is FANTASMA | AVC)
Duster (song is Constellations)
I guess that’s mostly alt-rock, slacker rock type stuff. Except Tainy… But damn DATA is fucking good man.
Highly recommend the Piano Guys. They mix classical music with modern hits.
Right now: Steely Dan’s album „Aja“
I personally like chiptunes and 80s rock
Folk drum and bass (e.g. monster ceilidh band)
Midwest emo... Camping in Alaska, caving, cap'n jazz, American football etc. Highly recommend caving if you're into that sort of stuff, hands down the most underrated artist I've ever seen.
I like Funk and Soul and Techno and Rock and Classic Hip Hop and the best from the 60s to the 80s. I guess i just love good Music
Death metal, experimental metal, vaporwave/mallsoft, witch house, and experimental punk.
I've been listening to a lot of Cavalera Conspiracy and Voivod lately. Polysics are pretty fun, too. Luxury Elite is a reliable vaporwave choice.
two of my very favorite genres are future garage and atmospheric black metal, but i'm a melomaniac and listen to a ton of genres
Vulcan has diverse range of favourite music...
But for now, mostly Dub Techno, Visual Kei, Symphonic Metal, Black Metal, and Classical.
Ambient, electronica, Post punk, emo and goth stuff, synthwave, sludge / stoner metal, industrial, and folk music.
My favorites over the years were
I don't know why, but I also gravitate to girl guitar bands. Especially if they sing in harmony. Instant goosebumps!
...Is Taylor Swift a genre?
But seriously, my music taste is pretty much her. Otherwise I like alt rock, rock (not too heavy though), ballads, pop that has good lyrics and a decent hook, and any song I hear that has guitars I like 25% more than those that don't.
Right now I'm really into indie/alternative with some funk and rock in there. My favorite band of all time is Her's.
Inner Wave, Jack Stauber, Pink Floyd, Binki, Bakar.
All amazing artists and all of Her's songs are amazing
I'm slightly biased towards progressive rock (Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin), vanera (Baitaca, Os Serranos), neofolk and folk metal (Faun, Korpiklaani... does Kayah's album with Bregović count?), some punk and grunge (The Offspring is still one of my favs). But it's a bit too messy to generalise.
it changes all the time but right now-

I'm all over the place. Willie Nelson, Rodrigo y Gabriella, OutKast, The Cure, Beck, Blackalicious, B-52s, Talking Heads, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, James Brown, The Clash, Ray Charles, Jonny Cash, The Who, ELO, The Beatles, The Guess Who.
Basically I start with listening to different genres of music, and add them into a big playlist and keep looking for new music to add to the playlist. I love finding collaborations that bands have done and spinoff bands.
Everything except jazz (because I can't find the rhythm, which is the point I guess).
I Hear you. I hate jazz. All jazz. It's just revolting to me. I'm such a wierdo.
