    I have a pretty eclectic taste, at the moment im mostly listening to folk, indie and classical but am partial to a bit of jazz and irish trad from time to time. Also from 14 to 17 i had my punk phase but grew out of it.

    Nothin like listening to a bit of Grindcore when you have the folks round for tea, wha?!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,739 ✭✭✭✭starbelgrade


    I hate when people say they have an "eclectic taste". It's like saying, "Oh look at me.. I'm so cool. I'm not defined by genres & am really open minded, loike, ya."

    So you listen to different types of music. So fucking what? Nearly everbody does that.

    I’ve got a broad taste. From the Britpop bands like UB40 and Def Leppard, right back to classic rock, like Wings.

    Buddy Rich was in hospital for an operation and the nurse who was prepping him asked if he was allergic to anything. "Only country music" was the reply.

    Free jazz, there's another genre I can't stand. Although I do have respect for jazz drummers.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 483 ✭✭baltimore sun


    I like new music, simple as that. I'm always trying to find something new and exciting.....except jazz, I cannot stand jazz with it's blatant disregard for common music rules while still actually adhering to rules of music.

    Polyphonic gloomcore.

    You probably wouldn't know any of the bands as it's quite now.

    I'm into Culstep at the moment, it's the smellier version of Dubstep.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,647 ✭✭✭✭El Weirdo


    Pretty much anything that isn't The Red Hot Chili Peppers or U2.

    How those two groups of **** have been getting away with it for so long is fucking beyond me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,789 ✭✭✭✭ScumLord


    All music that isn't Bob Marley is completely unnecessary.

    I'm having a chuckle remembering Begbie in Trainspotting (book) overhearing Sick Boy saying he was "basically a jazz purist" to some mot and being called "that fucking jazz purist" or similar therein. :pac:

    Maybe if you listen to the best of Bob Marley double CD that everyone has but that's not really the best of Bob Marley.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 149 ✭✭Artur Foden


    I'm ashamed to admit power metal is quite addictive, also death metal subgenres. apart from that all I listen to is Denny Schneidmesser, not sure exactly what genre he is. Sort of movie music I guess.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,538 ✭✭✭flutterflye


    Anything really, except r&b.
    Depends on what mood I'm in.
    Mainly rock though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,048 ✭✭✭Da Shins Kelly


    I listen to a bit of everything, however my favourites would be hip hop, soul and jazz. There are a few so-called 'indie' bands that I like too.

    Mostly punk and Irish trad. I play at sessions about twice a week. great music, what punk always wanted to be.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,713 ✭✭✭✭Novella


    My friends call it 'sadcore'. I just have a preference for more melancholy music. I do like other genres though, lil bit of everything I guess.

    He's reggae for people who couldn't be bothered getting into reggae.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,320 ✭✭✭roast


    Blues, Jazz, Metal, Funk, Rock.... list goes on. Real music, basically.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,432 ✭✭✭df1985


    everything electronic, particularly house in its many genres. Dubstep sounds like stephen hawking having a stroke.

    Rock/Indie rock too.

    Much misplaced music snobbery in this thread, methinks.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 845 ✭✭✭yupyup7up


    Metal, Rock, Techno, Drum n Bass, Dance, Hip Hop, Pop.

    everything except jazz and classical


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,738 ✭✭✭Jay D


    Techno, it's always modern.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,295 ✭✭✭✭Duggy747


    Pretty much anything but rap.

    Ones I listen to most would be old-school metal, classic rock (Queen, Lizzy), and dreadfully cheesy 80's music :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,732 ✭✭✭rain on


    Hardcore, metal, doom, black metal, metalcore, stoner, sludge, pop, r'n'b, hip-hop, electronica, ambient, noise/drone, and so on. As long as it's heavy or not at all heavy, none of that middle of the road stuff!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,642 ✭✭✭✭wolfmoon87


    Am I the only one who has no idea what dubstep is?:o
