Classic, metal, punk, new wave, you get the idea. Name and define your most and least favorite.

My favs are Screamo,Post-hardcore,emo,pop punk.

Least favs:metal, especially death metal!!1

I know there are others like experimental, folk-rock, power-pop,hordcore, metalcore, surf rock, southern rock, (some jamaican ska or something), progressive, psychedelic (not sure what that's like), plain alternative, emocore, i guess country too.

hey that's how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop!

coincidence?

So where does stuff like The 5th Demension and Sly and the Family Stone fit in?

Motown man, Motown!

"Hope I die, before I get old" but I didn’t, so I'm going to say....Mods and Rockers, pick one.

But I'm not so old that I don’t like the Mod Ska Rockers.

Really...."It's all Rock and roll to me!"

There's only two types of music. Good music and bad music.:D

The rock press (earnest 22 year olds just out of college) and music industry aren't happy unless they can put a label on something.

There's only two types of music. Good music and bad music.:D





I thought the saying went "There is only two types of music...Country and Western"

(yes, the is is intentional)


Don’t get me wrong I don't advocate that, I just pass it on.

Really for me Jazz is where it's at.

Fav. 80s thrash
least fav. Dont know what its called but bands like Lincoln Park (sp?) and death, black metal (cookie monster voices) CRAP!!

Sub-genres are basically limitless, given that the music industry itself can't agree on some identifiers. Too subjective, anyway. I recognize 3: "rock," "metal," and "pop"-ugh! within rock & roll. Sometimes they're interchangable.... Like I said, too subjective. Call it what you want, as long as the person you're talking to understands you.
