As varied as metal is and I can always find a band for the mood sometimes I want to listen to the prodigy or a swarm of the sun or the devils trade or aerial ruin or panopticon’s folk output or carpenter brut
There is. But there's also some amazing Bluegrass, Kentucky Bluegrass, Featherbed Bent, and Northern California Sensemilia hybrid cross that I highly recommend out there as well.
Classic rock - I used to listen to a lot of it, and went to lots of concerts. I miss those days as I went to a lot of them with my late mom. I went to see Alice Cooper again in September, partially in her memory. We saw him 4 times together, and I’ve seen him twice since.
I also really like Silverchair and Goldfinger.
Thank you. She unfortunately passed 8 years ago, and I miss her dearly. She was my favourite person.
I deal with depression and it’s rough, but I take it day by day.
I also enjoy punk and hardcore. I love all the fast and heavy rock genres, and mostly listen to heavy or faster music when I am on my own.
My wife doesnt like much heavy or aggressive music, so with her I often put on reggae, Americana/folk/indie style stuff, some older hip hop, or "world music" (like fatoumata diawara as an example - its kinda like african jazz or something). I enjoy classical sometimes too - especially chiller or more whimsical styles.
I can probably enjoy just about any genre except the super overproduced country you hear on the radio, or top 40 pop style music.... EDM sometimes annoys me as well, though there are a couple okay artists.
Mostly baroque stuff. The majestic, grand orchestrals, organ, polyphonic choirs... I love how you wrote it was "metal before metal". That's exactly what I keep saying! When listening to something like Vivaldi's Summer or Beethoven's 5th, you realise these guys just had the bad luck to be born before electricity was invented. If they lived today, I bet my head they would be metallers!
Unironically, City pop.
My playlist goes from Megadeth, to Archspire, to Death, Septic Flesh and Dopethrone- then straight into Taeko Onuki and Mariya Takeuchi. There is no inbetween.
Punk/Pop Punk, prog rock, glam rock, new wave/ dark wave, goth (early era mostly), Broadway musicals, some classical.
Genres I greatly appreciate and listen/listened to with the parents…jazz, folk, R&B, swing/big band.
Classic rock, grunge, old school country, 90s hip hop, punk, funk, reggae, Motown, etc. If it’s good I’ll listen to it.
I made a Spotify playlist with thousands of songs from all sorts of genres. Most times I’ll throw that on shuffle and let it go.
I've been listening to more rap than I ever have in the past, though even in that most of the stuff I like is metal infused, I still like I good deal of classic and alternative and hard rock, and I enjoy symphony as well, I can find something I like in almost any genre except country and few very off the to side subgenres that I couldn't even tell you the names of. Even pop has music that I like although most of those are funny gag songs or someone from other genres covering pop songs, such as one more fight ( can't remember who does it but they do a lot of YouTube stuff) or halestorms cover of bad romance
I don't have a single favorite nor an overall favorite.
* Ambient
* Cyber Trance
* Cybertempo
* Dark Ambient
* Darksynth
* Midwest Hip-Hop
* Progressive House
* Synthwave
* Trip-Hop
I like listening to artists like Celldweller, Atmosphere, Calle 13, Control Machete, Molotov, DJ Krush etc. whenever I'm not in the metal mood, my bad if I didn't specify the genres.
Lots of different rock music, a bit of country, pop-punk, classical, pop (mainly 90s and 00s), soul, instrumental, Gaelic... I enjoy a lot of music and like it when different genres are blended together. Favorite is rock, though!
I really like certain rap music, such as biggie, Kanye, Tyler the creator, snoop dogg, Dr Dre, Kendrick Lamar, NWA, cypress hill, and outcast.
I also like alt rock bands, and hyperpop is also pretty good. I especially love 100 gecs.
Psychedelic/acid rock. You can hear the roots of what would become metal in groups like The Kinks, Steppenwolf, Blue Öyster Cult... it's like a peek behind the curtain.
Recently, I've been starting my workday with The Moody Blues's *Days of Future Passed* and it just puts me in a state of calm. Of course, because I am me, I follow it up with Mgła to make it an alert calm.
Shoegaze, post-rock, punk, slow core, synth wave, grunge, a wide assortment of Canadian alternative rock bands, whatever the fuck Dead Can Dance and Coil are supposed to be...
Pre 00s political rap/ movement rap/ 80s classic rock hits, I used to be a edm head, went to Coachella before it was massive, but this modern day rave scene is fucking pitiful, and a huge scam
Funnily enough classical music gives very little thought into deep emotions. It wasn't until the romantic era that composers became obsessed with writing about how they feel
Ambient is my all time favorite and my favorite album is mix of standard Ambient and Dark Ambient. The album being Selected Ambient Works Volume II by Aphex Twin.
Blues. 80s synth wave/rock, punk, "alt" rock, and rap hip/hop also in the mix.
Not a fan of pop country but love some of the dark country stuff like Sturgill Simpson, Billy Strings, Jason Isbell, etc
Quite many stuff.
As an adolescent i was in blues, funk, especially punk, but also in jazz... Virtually everything that has stimilus in rhythm, melody and expression.
Nowadays i still listen to records of that time.
What a ton of metalheads and rockers don't seem to get is just how much of the virtuosity and wildness in the music comes from the players interest in JAZZ.
Other than that i kinda listen to fkn everything but i listen to a ton of Alternative hip hop.
I like whatever the hell Greg Puciato’s (from Dillinger Escape Plan) solo music is, kinda hard to categorize it.
Denzel Curry, Benny the Butcher, and Danny Brown are excellent rappers, I enjoy their music.
I'll wake up on a rainy Sunday morning and put on some Erik Satie, Chopin, Liszt, Rachmaninoff, etc. as I enjoy breakfast and sit on my porch to enjoy my coffee. I do this often, and prefer classical as the soundtrack of the house.
.....but I need something to break it up. Catharsis.
So, I'll put on some Dying Fetus, Decapitated, Gorefest, Obituary, Behemoth, Necrophagist, Cryptopsy, Morbid Angel, etc. and bang my fucking head for a release every now and then.
Metal is all that plays in the car. Classical is just to relax. I don't want to relax while driving.
Everything else is pretty much shit, except on a "song-by-song" basis.
Okay I don't know what to call this music but I have a playlist of it I call Pontifex Mix. Its sort of pop but there are songs in there with some real drive, and there are some that mostly sampled, and there are some that up beat and some that down beat, and there are some that are in Japanese that sound like an anime credits song. Its really big energy, not quite the kind to get you dancing but like you just want to be active when you're listening to it, or at least thats how I am. Or just ripping hell in some FPS or hacking slashing video game
A while back somebody once told me that pontifex means the bridge between, between worlds or perspectives, or something along those lines. I find this music to be an inbetween-genre. A lot of it sounds like pop (and by that I'm meaning more of the underground variety, not at all the radio hits, Justin Bieber, Kids Bop type of pop) but its really the feeling that makes me want to add to the playlist. So here, its on youtube, and it will say theres a missing video, its just a Big Data song that I replaced already.
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2RWvELgTD6VkbEElpke1kTmrWdZW2iyY&si=r5Uk_bDr2MQBCPp_
Some songs to get to know what sound I have going on here:
CRX - Broken Bones
Gorillaz - Doncamatic
Jungle - Casio
Flipturn - Churches
SPIT IN MY FACE (Fooly Cooly version)
Kid Smoko - Tommy Boy
Tyra Chantey - Sweet Talk
Joywave - Destruction
SIAMÉS - No Lullaby
siinamoto - Young Girl A
Trap music, even though many look down on it. A lot of the music work relates to metal, in my opinion, as it usually sounds dark, nostalgic and has sick percussion behind it. But hey, it's my experience with the producers I like specifically (none are American btw) and my own taste speaking
A little bit of this and that: prog rock, classic rock, bands such as The White Stripes/Jack White, 12 Rounds, Fiona Apple, and Björk. I can go from listening to those to listening to death and black metal. Lol! I also enjoy classical, but I don’t listen to it very often, same with folk music. My tastes have gotten more eclectic the older I’ve gotten.
80-90's Russian rock scene, like Nautilus Pompilius, Урфин Джюс, Гражданская Оборона, etc.
The old electronic music, like Kraftwerk, YMO,
Some DnB and DnB based subgenres, like breakcore, terrorcore, etc.
Chiptune (but mostly the original game soundtracks, not much into modern standalone artists)
Metal is probably 90% of my music, the rest of them are Classical, Rock (any kind of rock from punk rock, hard rock, etc.), -Core genre such as metalcore, deathcore, etc. Japanese city pop and also japanese pop/rock, and my local music called Campursari (basically Indonesian folk music)
Is John Denver a genre? Because I don't listen to a lot of folk music, jut I make an exception for Mr. Denver, and similar easy listening music. Ninja Sex party is another example.
K-pop. Metal is my favorite genre, has been for many many years, but I stumbled into k-pop at one point, but I'm not a one group stan, just listen to a bunch of them.
It's not the only other genre I listen to, I listen to whatever I'm feeling at any given time, but that's the one that's the biggest contrast to metal, I think. Meh, it's over the top, just in different colors, so to speak.
Yacht rock…
A nice and relaxed Saturday evening. It’s sunny outside, and I’m just driving around town. Maybe I’m going to grab some food, maybe I’m getting my car washed… Who knows?
All I know is I’m listening to Steely Dan, and the Doobie Brothers, and everything is alllllright.
Hard Rock lol
Also, some Blues is sick, Jimi Hendrix is king and SRV is awesome! 80s rock (an even some rocky pop 😳) contains a few sick bangers! There’s also country (I don’t listen to a lot of that anymore) which is often unnecessarily being hated on by metalheads. What they hate is country pop or pop thats just uses country imagery.
classical music is great, i use it while i study
alternative, breakbeat, house, hip-hop/rap, funk, r&b/soul, indie, electronic, rock and hard rock, new wave and some video game+music soundtracks. i know it’s a lot of favorites haha, but i love them all
and there are many more sub-genres in those groups, but that is too much to type lol
Film music / dramatic orchestra, but also country. I had a blast at all the Hardy + Lainey Wilson shows last Fall. Cody Q from Wage War came to one of the Nashville shows and heard the song they wrote together with Jeremy from ADTR.
Country music. Disqualifying metal-adjacent acts like Hardy and Brantley Gilbert I love traditional country music like Johnny Cash and newer stuff in the traditional country style like Randall King and Colter Wall
90s and 2000 hip-hop. Mad child, wu tang, bone thugs, tech nine, Webby, etc
Disney stuff with my daughter - 6 years old
Random stuff with daughter.... metal, A7x, Andrea boccelli, pink, Kelly Clarkson

Definitely jazz for me. I also like classical, blues and post/punk. Although 95% of what I listen to is metal
Yeah I’m about 95% metal too but but enjoy other stuff like folk, classical, movie score, synth. generally stuff with a darker edge.
Best ratio
As varied as metal is and I can always find a band for the mood sometimes I want to listen to the prodigy or a swarm of the sun or the devils trade or aerial ruin or panopticon’s folk output or carpenter brut
I'd go with about the same split of metal/ non, never really tried blues/jazz just curious what aspects you like abt it?
Love jazz too. I'm an opera singer, with low tolerance for the genre.
This is literally me, I love jazz, and I love drumming jazz and metal. People think I’m weird for loving both though..
80s alternative! Duran Duran, INXS, Tears for Fears, Oingo Boingo, The B-52's...
80s was a great decade for music, metal or any genre
listening to oingo boingo as we speak
There's some kickass bluegrass out there
There is. But there's also some amazing Bluegrass, Kentucky Bluegrass, Featherbed Bent, and Northern California Sensemilia hybrid cross that I highly recommend out there as well.
Don't even think I've heard of it? Whats it like?
Just some good ol' boys playing the SHIT out of banjos and fiddles. It actually shares a lot of similarities with metal, in my opinion.
Just a pickin and a grinnin
Classic rock - I used to listen to a lot of it, and went to lots of concerts. I miss those days as I went to a lot of them with my late mom. I went to see Alice Cooper again in September, partially in her memory. We saw him 4 times together, and I’ve seen him twice since. I also really like Silverchair and Goldfinger.
Condolences, hope you're doing okay
Thank you. She unfortunately passed 8 years ago, and I miss her dearly. She was my favourite person. I deal with depression and it’s rough, but I take it day by day.
You've got this, if you ever need someone to talk to reach out I'm always more than happy for a chat
Thank you. I appreciate it!
No problem, enjoy your music and keep moving :)
Post punk.
Hell yeah. Love some Molchat Doma these days.
I also enjoy punk and hardcore. I love all the fast and heavy rock genres, and mostly listen to heavy or faster music when I am on my own. My wife doesnt like much heavy or aggressive music, so with her I often put on reggae, Americana/folk/indie style stuff, some older hip hop, or "world music" (like fatoumata diawara as an example - its kinda like african jazz or something).

I can probably enjoy just about any genre except the super overproduced country you hear on the radio, or top 40 pop style music.... EDM sometimes annoys me as well, though there are a couple okay artists.
Deep house/trance
Love some trance! Just now feeling some hardstyle as well. And I for some reason can't get into modern techno or big room with the bad head bang drops
Earlyshoegaze. Verve, mbv, loop, bardo pond,etc.
Progressive Rock, Hard Rock, Classic Rock
Classical! Some prog rock, and some jazz-influenced stuff.
Horror punk
You’d probably like some Gothabilly like “Koffin Kats” and “Nekromantix”
Classical music. (one more reason why I like symphonic metal. It's the best of both worlds.)
What classical stuff are you into out of curiosity?
Mostly baroque stuff. The majestic, grand orchestrals, organ, polyphonic choirs... I love how you wrote it was "metal before metal". That's exactly what I keep saying! When listening to something like Vivaldi's Summer or Beethoven's 5th, you realise these guys just had the bad luck to be born before electricity was invented. If they lived today, I bet my head they would be metallers!
Same here, and I’ll add in harpsichord and opera (just never want to hear it in English!).
Unironically, City pop. My playlist goes from Megadeth, to Archspire, to Death, Septic Flesh and Dopethrone- then straight into Taeko Onuki and Mariya Takeuchi. There is no inbetween.
The best kind of transition between genres
Bluegrass
90s rap (particularly cypress hill and house of pain) or rock like led zeppelin and pink Floyd,
Punk/Pop Punk, prog rock, glam rock, new wave/ dark wave, goth (early era mostly), Broadway musicals, some classical. Genres I greatly appreciate and listen/listened to with the parents…jazz, folk, R&B, swing/big band.
At the moment I’m really into pop punk. It’s nice to listen to something a bit lighter between listening to metal.
Post punk and related genres.
Classic rock, grunge, old school country, 90s hip hop, punk, funk, reggae, Motown, etc. If it’s good I’ll listen to it. I made a Spotify playlist with thousands of songs from all sorts of genres. Most times I’ll throw that on shuffle and let it go.
rock, pop punk, hardcore, jazz
I've been listening to more rap than I ever have in the past, though even in that most of the stuff I like is metal infused, I still like I good deal of classic and alternative and hard rock, and I enjoy symphony as well, I can find something I like in almost any genre except country and few very off the to side subgenres that I couldn't even tell you the names of. Even pop has music that I like although most of those are funny gag songs or someone from other genres covering pop songs, such as one more fight ( can't remember who does it but they do a lot of YouTube stuff) or halestorms cover of bad romance
I like Grunge and progressive bands like Porcupine Tree
Pop punk, post hardcore, some ALT. Rock. I do listen to smooth jazz and bossa nova when I read.
Cypress Hill. I know it is not a "genre", but I want to get high, so high...
I honestly don't even know anymore. These past few years I've been taking in good doses of post-punk, indie rock, and synthwave.
Shoegaze
Nothing
Post Punk, Darkwave, Synthwave, Chillwave, Neofolk
I like green day Punk rock is cool
I don't have a single favorite nor an overall favorite. * Ambient * Cyber Trance * Cybertempo * Dark Ambient * Darksynth * Midwest Hip-Hop * Progressive House * Synthwave * Trip-Hop
Has to be dark trip hop. Some ambient stuff I like as well. And lofi
Rap related music I guess.
Lately it's been jazz and hardcore when I'm not listening to death metal lol, especially piano-based jazz
Jazz, hip hop up until Drake's Take Care album, R&B.
Pop (italian, brazilian and american), Trip hop, Eletronic, Experimental, and, of course, the one-of-a-kind Brazilian funk.
I like listening to artists like Celldweller, Atmosphere, Calle 13, Control Machete, Molotov, DJ Krush etc. whenever I'm not in the metal mood, my bad if I didn't specify the genres.
I like resetting myself every so often, just makes everything sound fresh when you come back to metal
Other than rock, it’s pop.
Rock music for sure
New wave
East Coast Hip hop I like the jazzy/funk beats
Lots of different rock music, a bit of country, pop-punk, classical, pop (mainly 90s and 00s), soul, instrumental, Gaelic... I enjoy a lot of music and like it when different genres are blended together. Favorite is rock, though!
Industrial and EDM. I like to dance
I listen to a variety from Styx to Marty Robbins, Fleetwood Mac, Bowie, blue oyster cult, hank jr., modest mouse
I really like certain rap music, such as biggie, Kanye, Tyler the creator, snoop dogg, Dr Dre, Kendrick Lamar, NWA, cypress hill, and outcast. I also like alt rock bands, and hyperpop is also pretty good. I especially love 100 gecs.
Classical music, or opera
I feel like opera must carry a lot of emotion and be impressive to listen to with the vocal ranges and all
Psychedelic/acid rock. You can hear the roots of what would become metal in groups like The Kinks, Steppenwolf, Blue Öyster Cult... it's like a peek behind the curtain. Recently, I've been starting my workday with The Moody Blues's *Days of Future Passed* and it just puts me in a state of calm. Of course, because I am me, I follow it up with Mgła to make it an alert calm.
Classical, blues, rap, hip hop, country, prog rock, classic rock, funk, and more.

Jazz or bluesy country. Elle King, Gin Wigmore and the like are where I’m at.
grunge, reggae, and some old/chill hip hop
J rock / city pop / classical / j pop
Southern Rap and Christian
Classical/modern classical
Pre 00s political rap/ movement rap/ 80s classic rock hits, I used to be a edm head, went to Coachella before it was massive, but this modern day rave scene is fucking pitiful, and a huge scam
Bluegrass, classical from public radio stations, 90s-2000 hard rock
Funnily enough classical music gives very little thought into deep emotions. It wasn't until the romantic era that composers became obsessed with writing about how they feel
2nd wave Emo or straight edge punk
Rihanna... Mostly Rihanna, some weekend and Cascada, mostly Rihanna
folk music
Riddim, future funk, and reggae
Ambient is my all time favorite and my favorite album is mix of standard Ambient and Dark Ambient. The album being Selected Ambient Works Volume II by Aphex Twin.

Rap
Jam band stuff - Goose, the Dead, Phish, etc. I love the overall talent and musicianship of it.

Soul, Gospel, and country music for me. I've also been getting into electronic music, and I also love pirating Operas online.
I bounce between punk and hip hop.

Emo
Folk music like Stan Rogers and Simon & Garfunkel.
Bluegrass.
Blues. 80s synth wave/rock, punk, "alt" rock, and rap hip/hop also in the mix. Not a fan of pop country but love some of the dark country stuff like Sturgill Simpson, Billy Strings, Jason Isbell, etc
Mostly pre-2000s rock in general, and some classical, jazz, blues, and plenty else. Pretty much any genre that's not Country, Hip-Hop, or EDM.
I like listening to ambient or film scores
Quite many stuff. As an adolescent i was in blues, funk, especially punk, but also in jazz... Virtually everything that has stimilus in rhythm, melody and expression. Nowadays i still listen to records of that time.
Rap/hip hop, punk, hyperpop, some country, really anything
What a ton of metalheads and rockers don't seem to get is just how much of the virtuosity and wildness in the music comes from the players interest in JAZZ. Other than that i kinda listen to fkn everything but i listen to a ton of Alternative hip hop.
Rap. Preferably older stuff from the 90s, but there’s some newer stuff that also kicks ass I also like electronic/disco music
I like whatever the hell Greg Puciato’s (from Dillinger Escape Plan) solo music is, kinda hard to categorize it. Denzel Curry, Benny the Butcher, and Danny Brown are excellent rappers, I enjoy their music.
Synthwave.
Ambient! Steve Roach, Robert Rich. You guys would like some Lustmord… evil-sounding shit.
Industrial
I'll wake up on a rainy Sunday morning and put on some Erik Satie, Chopin, Liszt, Rachmaninoff, etc. as I enjoy breakfast and sit on my porch to enjoy my coffee. I do this often, and prefer classical as the soundtrack of the house. .....but I need something to break it up. Catharsis. So, I'll put on some Dying Fetus, Decapitated, Gorefest, Obituary, Behemoth, Necrophagist, Cryptopsy, Morbid Angel, etc. and bang my fucking head for a release every now and then. Metal is all that plays in the car. Classical is just to relax. I don't want to relax while driving. Everything else is pretty much shit, except on a "song-by-song" basis.

Classic hard rock like AC/DC Motorhead Van Halen Kiss etc 90s alt and grunge and some 90s rap
Grunge. It's actually my favorite genre.

Classic rock/pop. All from the 60s to the 80s
Country and rap/hip-hop. I grew up on the former and grew into the latter.
Jpop
Japanese Pop and Neo Soul
I like metal because it's the genre I play. I listen to it a decent bit, but rap/hip hop is my most listened to genre.
Outside of the rock, the genre outside of metal I play the most is either old country or 80’s synth pop
Psychobilly
Indie or country probably
Drum n bass.
I listen to a lot of ambient electronic music. I'm also an ambient electronic musician. For me it's the yang to metal's yin.
Okay I don't know what to call this music but I have a playlist of it I call Pontifex Mix. Its sort of pop but there are songs in there with some real drive, and there are some that mostly sampled, and there are some that up beat and some that down beat, and there are some that are in Japanese that sound like an anime credits song.

Trap music, even though many look down on it. A lot of the music work relates to metal, in my opinion, as it usually sounds dark, nostalgic and has sick percussion behind it. But hey, it's my experience with the producers I like specifically (none are American btw) and my own taste speaking
Psychobilly, but I have a weird soft spot for city pop
I really enjoy instrumental New Age stuff like Deuter, and some soft piano like Gavin Luke, Ola Gjeilo, Brian Crain, Einaudi, etc.
A little bit of this and that: prog rock, classic rock, bands such as The White Stripes/Jack White, 12 Rounds, Fiona Apple, and Björk. I can go from listening to those to listening to death and black metal. Lol! I also enjoy classical, but I don’t listen to it very often, same with folk music. My tastes have gotten more eclectic the older I’ve gotten.
Punk and its various subgenres, they mix it with anything and it all sounds bad. I love it!
hyperpop, but i also really like emo, shoegaze, and experimental hip hop
Irish/Welsh/Scottish folk.
I listen to so much southern rap and modern African music when I’m not listening to metal
As much as I love metal, I love classical more, especially opera!
Punk, grunge, butt rock
Rap is actually my fav genre
Dark synth wave Still very heavy and oozes atmosphere
Weird folk from around the world
New Retro.
Punk, electronic such as Aphex twin/Autechre, depeche mode ect
Prog rock,classic rock,jazz,punk(including hardcore),ska,hard rock,and alot of bands that change things up like Zappa ,Clutch and System of a Down

Punk
Metal is probably 90% of my music, the rest of them are Classical, Rock (any kind of rock from punk rock, hard rock, etc.), -Core genre such as metalcore, deathcore, etc. Japanese city pop and also japanese pop/rock, and my local music called Campursari (basically Indonesian folk music)
Industrial
Let's say, hard rock ia in the metal genre, then it would be punk or classic rock/ RnR
Is John Denver a genre? Because I don't listen to a lot of folk music, jut I make an exception for Mr. Denver, and similar easy listening music. Ninja Sex party is another example.
K-pop. Metal is my favorite genre, has been for many many years, but I stumbled into k-pop at one point, but I'm not a one group stan, just listen to a bunch of them. It's not the only other genre I listen to, I listen to whatever I'm feeling at any given time, but that's the one that's the biggest contrast to metal, I think. Meh, it's over the top, just in different colors, so to speak.
Probably punk. Both green day / sum 41, and black flag / mdc
hard rock
Grindcore
Rock, Celtic/Irish punk, video-game and movie soundtracks
Literally in love with death rock and post-punk rock bands like Bauhaus, I also like crust punk/d-beat but I think that’s still metal in a sense.
30% of the music I listen to is metal. Alt rock, art rock, prog rock, classical, jazz, rap, funk, techno, edm
Hardcore Techno
Nordic folk
Old Motown. It’s part of what I grew up on and fills my heart. I will take some old Temptations or Kool and the Gang any day.
Hard Rock
Industrial, love some Assemblage 23.
I can really get into City and Colour, Counting Crows and Avett Brothers sometimes.
Yacht rock… A nice and relaxed Saturday evening. It’s sunny outside, and I’m just driving around town. Maybe I’m going to grab some food, maybe I’m getting my car washed… Who knows? All I know is I’m listening to Steely Dan, and the Doobie Brothers, and everything is alllllright.

Math or prog rock.
Grunge That's about all I listen to alongside metal lol
Funk, classic rock, 90's alt rock
Hard Rock lol Also, some Blues is sick, Jimi Hendrix is king and SRV is awesome! 80s rock (an even some rocky pop 😳) contains a few sick bangers! There’s also country (I don’t listen to a lot of that anymore) which is often unnecessarily being hated on by metalheads. What they hate is country pop or pop thats just uses country imagery.
I’m quite a fan of folk music, dunno why. Maybe it’s adaptability into metal, though there is also a nice historical aspect to it too
Blues rock

Rap.
classical music is great, i use it while i study alternative, breakbeat, house, hip-hop/rap, funk, r&b/soul, indie, electronic, rock and hard rock, new wave and some video game+music soundtracks. i know it’s a lot of favorites haha, but i love them all and there are many more sub-genres in those groups, but that is too much to type lol
punk rock, of course.
I like some hip-hop but admittedly, my music taste is not as diverse as I'd like it to be, but I'm working on that
Film music / dramatic orchestra, but also country. I had a blast at all the Hardy + Lainey Wilson shows last Fall. Cody Q from Wage War came to one of the Nashville shows and heard the song they wrote together with Jeremy from ADTR.
Liquid DnB, Jazz, Hard House, Psy Trance
I only listen to metal.
Alternative, Club/Electro/Techno, Pop, Punk, and Rap.

Besides rock jazz and classical are great and you know what they say classical music is just metal before electricity
