A mixture of death, black, and power metal for the most part.
Dissection, Nevermore, and Necrophagist are usually my go-to.

Metal for the most part, but I will listen to anything except Jazz, Classical, Rap, and Hip-Hop.
Hard to classify, genre blending stuff like Jesu. There's a few bands or people in every genre that truly define it and the rest are either imitators or just missed the message. Some industrial stuff, like Throbbing Gristle, Coil, NON. Some classic metal like Iron Maiden, Judas Priest. Some old school rap like NWA, Public Enemy, Biz Markie, Heavy D. Some instrumental stuff like Pelican. Virtually everything Justin Broadrick touches. Leonard Cohen, Lou Reed. Any Pink Floyd except Dark Side of the Moon. Burzum is the only black metal I like and some old school punk too such as Crass, the Germs, and GG Allin.
I dont like any one genre of music. I hate a lot of songs from all genres. If i had to choose one, it would be Techno/Trance. Its got the most songs I like
voted "other" because the music i listen to is really almost any music.
But at the moment it is a mix of dubstep, grime, drum and bass, idm and everything from the UK electronic scene.
For the metal i am into all most anything but most screamo, post-hardcore, deathcore, metalcore and some things from other genres in metal as well for the most of it

I listen to a wide range of music, from Spice Girls/N*Sync/Britney Spears to Kayne West/Kid Cudi/Jay-Z to The Temptations/Earth Wind & Fire/Bobby Caldwell to Underoath/Pierce the Veil/The Devil Wears Prada/etc. I have a bunch of classical composers when I played violin as well.
I just love music.

I guess mine are more sub-genres, because rock has a lot of crap I don't like that other people do like AC/DC for instance:
Jazz, but I don't listen to much old stuff. I like Quantic quite a lot though, I get lost in which sub-genre is which with jazz so I'll just leave it broad.
Alternative
Ambient
Easy Listening
Electro/Electronic
Funk/Soul
Stoner Rock, but this mosty centres around QotSA and side projects.
Indie
Instrumental, and lots of it.
Lounge
Post Rock, also lots of it.
Progressive and Psychedelic Rock
Trip Hop, which is probably my most extensive collection, it's just so good.
And that is me.

Alright, let's go through all the subgenres you complained about. Each one has its own distinctive musical structure and rules, and in such a large master genre (Metal), they are needed to differentiate exactly what kind of sound a listener is looking for.Mr.Tea said:
Also, don't ***** about something you know nothing about. If you wanted to know more about them, you could have asked me.
Go out and buy each one of these records (as I have), and tell me they don't sound unique:

I went with "Other" because there's so much out there that its kind of hard to just limit my liking to one genre. As of right now, I've been kinda stuck on Bad Religion, Me First and the Gimmie Gimmies, Rammstein, NOFX, and everything that both Mike Patton and Mike Ness have been part of. Win 12 Internets if you can name three of the many bands that Mike Patton's been in, bonus of 5 Internets if you don't use Wikipedia.
