Interesting. Reggae gets nowhere near as much credit as it deserves, mostly because the majority of casual listeners start and stop at Marley. But once you get over that stigma you will find LOADS worth listening to... especially if you love Wobble's basslines from Metal Box (take Lydon's vocals off "The Suit", for example, and you've got a pretty solid dub track).


Yeah, I don't doubt it. I just haven't gotten around to exploring it much. I'd certainly like to at some point.

Hard to say this. Each genre has some beautiful gems and a crapload of shit at the same time. Genres are a nice (but difficult and limited) way to classify music, but they are not a correct indication of the music that's about to follow, what I'll feel at the music or what my final oppinion of the music is gonna be. It's not like I pick something up and see: oh this is punk, I'm gonna hate it.

That being said, I like quite a lot of prog, jazz and psych albums, while I'm also starting to appreciate a few post-rock albums. Conversly, there are only a few punk albums I like and most (simple) hard rock is quite boring.

some examples:

prog: + in the court of the crimson king, mirage by camel ...
prog: - most by gentle giant, much by ELP and some by any other progband ...

jazz: + Coltrane, Parker, Davis & Mingus ...
jazz: - basicaly what our music teacher learnt us (count basie and such) ...

punk: + london calling, pure mania by the vibrators, marquee moon by television ...
punk: - a lot of other stuff: sex pistols, ramones (in both cases, except for a few songs) ...

hard rock:+ led zeppelin, black sabbath ...
hard rock: - ACDC ...

Conclusion: don't judge the album or band by the genre

Couldn't agree more with this.

Least favourites:

There's a certain brand of music that's got kind of monotone, deadpan vocals, barely any production or melody, and sort of sardonic lyrics. I think it's a type of post-punk. I can't think of any examples though so I may have imagined it. It's my least favourite, if it exists.

Also music-with-bondage-on-the-album-cover is usually headache-inducing. It's a genre, apparently. No offense to those who are into bondage, it's not about the album covers having bondage on them, it's about what that indicates for the music inside. Laughing

That sort of hyper-masculine classic rock stuff makes me gag.

mmmm, hyphens

Favourites:

Folk, been a favourite for a long time.

Dream jangle electro twee pop. Oh, damn, brb, changing my name to Dreamjangle Electrotwee.

Ambient and black metal to a lesser degree, I'm picky with those genres but what I love I really love.

I believe that's typically called hair metal.

Take Alice Cooper out of that and yea, that's hair metal.

And hair metal is beautiful.
