Which type of song?

[Silverbolt]

hi all!

this is a new poll about what type of music the people of CA likes listening ;)

if you like some group, singer or band put the name in the comments ;)

[+Tailspin]

I didn't vote because I really didn't find my category. Blues and Rock with a little Metal now and then. Also like acoustic guitar music of all kinds. Who do I listen to? Clapton, Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Allman Bros., SRV, Neil Young. I've been listening to them since they were new. I like a lot of the newer Rock bands but I have no idea who they are.

[+SayethWhaaaa]

Awww... C'mon! I can't be the only person who digs 70s disco, hip hop and electronica?! :biggrin:

[TX3RN0BILL]

You forgot to add an "other" tab to the list for people whose favourite style is something else than the items on the list - I'm a soundtrack fan, but still I voted on metal and electronic, although I listen to everything except folclore and the likes...

 

As for how much music I hear, it's hard to tell, when I'm at the PC at home I normally listen to MP3s or CDs, whilst I normally recharge my Ipod around twice a week...

I usually listen to everything but country/western or hiphop. Classic rock (zeppelin, the who, pink floyd) is big on my iPod, but lately I've started getting into some of the new British Pop/punk bands (Artic Monkeys, Libertines,Kaiser Chiefs) and some US alternative rock/punk (White Stripes, Dropkick Murphey's, Black Keys, Killers). I'll also listen to some acoustic stuff depending on my mood.

[+JediMaster]

I love oldies, rock, some of what some people consider "pop" (although I usually don't), some soundtracks, and a smattering of classic disco.

 

Lots of those categories, however, I never touch!

[+Typhoid]

I like both kinds. Country AND Western!

 

 

actually not, but couldn't pass up the straight line.........!

[eraser_tr]

Rock of sorts. Not a big fan of metal or punk rock though.

 

Favorite is Carlos Santana, and some trashy thug with #$%& noise came along with the same last name, and if I don't specify carlos, people think I like that cRap. Hendrix, steppenwolf, the stones, CCR, pink floyd. Most of what I like is fairly old, most newer music is utterly talentless noise, at best a repetative beat and maybe rythym. No flow, no melody, no inspiration or soul to it. A few exceptions, like 311, slightly stoopid and a few others, but they're mixed and inconsistent. they don't have the timelessness of the greats.

Your a moderator...edit the poll...hehe

this is a really good idea!

add to options "Other" and "Jazz/Blues"

Where's Industrial music? No, that's not electronic and definitely not rock... Strictly speaking that's not music but still it has to be somewhere.

Some examlpes of this slow creepy thingie

P.S. Yes, I'm a strange person.

[FalconC45]

I like classic rock (50's & 60's), Classic metal (70's thru hair metal of 80's) early Grudge (Nirvana, Alice in Chains) some of today's Metal (Godsmack, Kitte, Distrubed). However I am listening to Nightwish. They have a unique sound. Their now-ex lead was a classical opera trained singer. Her vocals is amazing in the songs. The music & songs reminds me of Dio and the Dream Theater. Alot of the songs have a medevial theme ie Dio.

(new vid of their new lead Annette - "Amaranth")

 

About their new lead, she's alright but her vocals, IMHO, isn't as strong as their original lead Tarja. Tarja's was very unique for a metal band.. Anyway that's the music I like.

PS. Nightwish is from Finland.

Nickleback

Linkin Park

[WarlordATF]

I grew up in the 80s with all the great heavy metal. I Like everything from Elvis to Motley Crue and Kiss to Megadeth and Slayer. Lately i have been listening to Nickelback and Hendrix the most. I even listen to some country like Hank Jr. and Johnny Cash.

 

Guess i am showing my age huh?

[+DoctorQuest]

Jazz and Blues, mostly, but I have an eclectic taste in pop. I care less about the artist these days than whether I just like the music or not.

 

Listen to streaming jazz and jazz mp3s most of the time I'm at work.

 

I like Hearts of Space (google it) for its very interesting musical offerings.

Awww... C'mon! I can't be the only person who digs 70s disco, hip hop and electronica?! :biggrin:

 

Yes another person that likes good music. Give me old school Hip-hop, electro, b-boy music, funk, classic r&b, and some good ole metal over this MTV/BET crap they play over the radio and on tv.

 

Today any no talent bum can get a record deal as long as they "act" like a thug or dress like a $2 stripper.

[triplethr3at]

Dream Theater= is good

Dragon Force= Insane guitar but all the songs sound very similar

 

Dream Theater= some of the best songs I have ever heard and they are not limited to one genre. Definatly listen to these guys. They have something for all rock fans. Classical hard metal industrail alternative instrumental

In Flames= good head bangong music

Children of Bodom+same as in flames but better guitar

Haggard= Mix classical with rock

[Silverbolt]

hehe

but Try listen Circus maximus and Seventh wonder, beautifull and good songs, sometimes i think is better dream theater xDD

but just some times!

is there no rival to Systematic chaos, this is a great albun

[+Brain32]

Wow, many people like Metal, I like that

Now although I like more different types of music(from classical, jazz, rock to newer electronic(I put everything played without instruments here) music.

However Metal is what I really like and spend most time listening.

Some of the bands I would like to mention are Panthera, Dream Theater(ofcourse), SymphonyX, Iced Earth, Lost Horizon and ArchEnemy(pure evil with awsome music ) there are many more but theese are either oldies that never ware off or current favourites...

Alrighty mods, we've got our first John Tesh fan. I'll keep an eye on this one, you guys secure the exits. Jedi, keep your mind open. Where there's a Tesh fan, there's a Sith Lord.We'll find him if he's around here somewhere... Where's PaulN with the chloroform??
