What is your favorite genre of music? Simple Question.
Mine is metal. Favorites include Megadeth and Metallica. I might also say Slayer, but they are fairly unchanging and the topic of the lyrics got old by Seasons in the Abyss. I also like other bands, such as Rammstein. I also like Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin.

What's your favorite?

#2 Wed, 28 Jul 2004 - 21:08 MacNN

No folk, jazz, or blues?!?

What genre would The Cure be in? 80's pop? Goth? I like their new album, btw.

#3 Wed, 28 Jul 2004 - 21:16 MacNN

That's alot more of a niche genre at the current time.

And who the **** are you talking about? The Cure?

#4 Wed, 28 Jul 2004 - 21:19 MacNN

Electronica/Dance
Pop

#5 Wed, 28 Jul 2004 - 21:20 MacNN

Soul/R&B

What the f*ck are you asking me? I said I liked The Cure. What's wrong with that?!?

[edit] Rammstein is a good one too, but it's genre is Industrial.

You can check out their new video here. Check them out in iTunes. I think Disintegration is one of their best albums to date. I never listened to Him however.

Ummm... it's Devo, not Divo.

And who doesn't know who the Cure are? Jeebus! Robert Smith? Mecha Robert Smith?

And contrary to what they say on that episode of South Park, Disintegration is not the best album ever.

I said that only because I thought he'd be more familiar with it. Personally, I like Boys Don't Cry, Pornography, and Faith the most. (In general, they're all good)

16. Are you saying that you're over 20, and still post on a forum?
Sorry If I'm not up on old Pop music. Pop music sucks ass. Just like rap.
I don't get techno music. The only artists I've ever heard of are BT and Andy Hunter, and didn't care much for the former.

#28 Thu, 29 Jul 2004 - 08:53 MacNN

Electronica! (Hybrid, BT, Way Out West...)

#32 Thu, 29 Jul 2004 - 09:31 MacNN

Other. 80s.

#33 Thu, 29 Jul 2004 - 09:34 MacNN

Classic rock.

It was between that and metal, but if I listen to metal too long, I start having fits and have evil thoughts of killing Brits named "Phil"

I knew the Cure even when I was like 10 years old. Damn, I've never heard someone saying that they don't know The Cure. Next there will be people saying that they never heard of the Beatles or Bob Dylan or whatever.

I would say that with the high percentage of "Other" votes that your poll choices are much too limited. Maybe you should get out more

I love classica music. Also enjoy movie soundtracks.

#44 Thu, 29 Jul 2004 - 19:39 MacNN

Does anyone else think that because 1.) the poll was missing too many choices and 2.) the original poster has been banned that this thread should be about something else now?
