Poll: What music do you associate yourself with?

[Red Bomb]

Death and some sorts of black and folk metal.

Only the real shit, please. Dont mean to be a stuck up elitist 6 year old but I cant stand some of this shit that gets called death metal these days. Bands like Kalmah, Odious Mortem, (old) Cryptopsy, etc. As for black metal, keep this hail satan bullshit away from me. Bands like Burzum are awesome, and Dimmus very very first album was flawless.

Of course, metal is only what I listen to 70% of the time. I listen to a lot of different music that really couldnt vary further.

This for me ^^^^^
Also I do love Immortal, Bathory, (old) Mayhem, Venom, Vital Remains.

But also have been know to listen (extensively) to New Age/Celtic like Loreena McKennitt and The Doors, Pink Floyd, Electric Wizard, Cathedral etc.

For the last while, I've been thinking about what the average hardcore gamer listens to/associates themselves with, (I'm a Hard Rock/Screamo kinda guy) What about you?

System of a Down

OT: Techno/rock/ some hip hop and rap but yeah out of all those, mainly techno. From psychedelic to rave and everything in between
...except maybe minimalistic...

 

[subject_87]

I myself am quite the fan of Daft Punk (but the term 'techno' makes me cringe) as well as the kind of songs that make you feel like a sheer badass, like Jonny Cash's 'God's gonna cut you down', especially when going on a crit-rocket streak in TF2.

 

[The Great Purtabo]

System of a Down, Billy tallent, Devil Wears prada.. etc

<3 love 'em all

 

[Commander Jack Rankin]

Hard Rock and Metal mostly.

 

[Bon_Clay]

When asked I just say metal. Thrash, power, doom, alternative, symphonic, folk, little bit of black and death, and of course classic stuff like Sabbath or Iron Maiden. Not a fan of imitation metal stuff like screamo or metalcore.

There's tons of other stuff I like from rock, electronic, blues, pop, etc. If the song actually has some real talent and emotion put into it I can enjoy it. Which is why I just say metal when asked what I listen to. For the most part it is the only genre I can find any legitimate passion in these days.

Someone talking or pretending to sing while a machine corrects their voice every 3 seconds over either a generic crappy beat made by someone else, or a beat "sampled" from a previously popular song =/= music imo.

Video Game Music; i'm a gamer, do the math

(i do like Metal, Rock, and some other genres too though)

 

[icame]

Rock n' roll

I also am enjoying a lot of game soundtracks recently

 

[Mr Pantomime]

This song gives a good idea of what I like

Spoiler

My Windows Media Player tells me me top genres are Metal, Rock and Alternative
But my Last FM profile tells me my top listened songs are Show Me Yours by Breathe Carolina, Hana Mura Sensation by Little Non, and Giants Amoung Common Men by Jamies Elsewhere. So I dont know what to think.

Also, GIRUGAMESH!

Yay, Girugamesh. Too bad so many people only heard about it through that viral sakuracon video

Still, even for something I heard from a stupid looking kid in a meme video, they're pretty good.

 

[The Shade]

Classic jazz and classic rock, all the way.

From Benny Goodman to Pink Floyd, I got it covered.

 

[Betancore]

Most of the people who know me well tend to associate me with just the one band, Pink Floyd. So I guess...Pink Floyd. Yeah. I also listen to a fair bit of metal, although I don't stick exclusively to one genre.
