I love most electronic music with my favourite subgenre being electro. Although dubstep and a trance are also up there rn

I oscillate between 3 moods. For the longest time I exclusively listened to metal and rock, System of a Down being my all time favorite. Also Primus, Korn, Rammstein, Suicidal Tendencies, ICP, and La Dispute (not exactly metal/rock but fits in with all my angry music that keeps me happy lol).

My other mood, when I’m struggling with my mental health, is Pink Floyd. All the Pink Floyd, all day long, listen to the same album on repeat for 3 weeks straight Pink Floyd. My current favorite album is The Final Cut. It haunts me in an amazing way.

Recently I’ve been on an alt/electro pop kick. Ashnikko is my favorite and I can't wait to see her on tour later this year. Also Kim Petras, Medusa, Poppy (kinda scratches that metal itch too), Royal & the Serpent, YONAKA, SUUNS, and IC3PEAK (ALSO kinda scratches the metal itch).

Lots of classic rock. Billy Joel, led zeppelin, etc.

But lately I've been on a classical music kick.

[–] CFinley97@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was recently revisiting some Billy Joel. He really was a great folk storyteller.

Like, Allentown tells a history so succinctly but authentically. It really is a skill he honed.

[–] Landrin201@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

He's incredibly good at turning experiences into words. Allentown is still relevant today, the way he wrote it it just describes so many peoples American experience.

But he did that a lot. Where I think he's best with it is more emotional songs, he really captures whatever emotion he's getting into words well. Like, Captain Jack does a good job of telling the story of someone in small town America, but I always heard it as a song about depression. All this stuff is happening around you and you're just kinda there for it, not really feeling much of anything.

Or how he captures that nervous feeling about meeting a girl for the first time in Get it Right the First Time. He is so good at getting emotion into music.

I recently started listening to classical and boy does it require a completely different listening approach! I'm listening almost exclusively to Mahler's No.5 since my attention fades away after the first movement and I need lots of listening to know what's actually going on

[–] eclipse@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

I’ve kinda got all my eggs in different baskets but mostly I listen to pop punk, alternative, and some classic rock

[–] DrCatface@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Gridlink just dropped a new track and I was reminded of what a banger Longhena was

The band Sleep Token has been a majority of my played music for over a month now, and I don't see that changing anytime soon. I mostly listen to stuff like Metalcore, Deathcore, Djent, Nu Metal, Prog, Instrumental, I love metal covers of pop songs. Also like hard dance, dubstep, DnB, some pop, some rap, most anything as long as it isn't tasteless.

[–] JoeClu@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Sleep Token. Discovered it recently too. Man that guy can SING! Love it. Chokehold is great.

I mostly listen to varieties of British music (shoutout !britishmusic@lemmy.world)

I love R&B. I've been exploring British country music lately (surprisingly is a lot of it).

Massive fan of grime music (!grime@lemmy.world) (similarish to hip hop but with electronic beats) and its predecessor, UK garage (summery dance music vibes). UK rap in general is a big thing for me. I listen to drill music on occasion but not super often (modern gangster rap basically, although there's a lot of commercial drill nowadays). Been really into jersey club music lately - I think the beats are really cool.

I have some fondness for dancehall (!dancehall@lemmy.world) and afrobeats music as well.

Other than that, I enjoy (but don't listen to actively) baile funk, some varieties of house music, deep/original dubstep music (not the screechy dubstep most people think of), reggae, lofi-hiphop, the underground NY hip hop scene

I'm really into mid 2000s pop-punk. Obviously the big ones like blink-182 and Green Day, but also a bunch of the smaller ones like The Starting Line, Rufio, New Found Glory, etc. Those were the bands I listened to when I was learning to play guitar. I learned so many of their songs because they were easy AF (except Rufio). And I guess those songs really stuck with me.

[–] JimmyDean@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Legitimately almost every genre, as long as I'm the mood. Lately tho I've mostly been listening to The Fall of Troy, Blink-182, Dance Gavin Dance, This Town Needs Guns, and good ole Pro Era artists like Capital Steez and Joey Bada$$.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 2 points 1 year ago

I'm a real big fan of grunge. All my discovery feeds are based off nothing but 90's grunge.

[–] pinwurm@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

I listen to a bit of everything. Bands in my recent rotation include Low, 3rd Secret, MotΓΆrhead, Rick James, L7 and Joji, Aimee Mann, Mdou Moctar, Aphex Twin, Beastie Boys. Donny Benet

My favorite all time genre is industrial. So stuff like The Young Gods, Nine Inch Nails, Skinny Puppy, Front Line Assembly, KMFDM, Ministry, Filter, Mulitple Man, Meat Beat Manifesto, Pig, Emptyset, Youth Code, Atari Teenage Riot / Alec Empire, My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult, Download…

Well, Fuckmyfuckingass, if you must know. Punk, folk, and folk punk with some rock and classical mixed in there too

[–] Cyder@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Mostly rock. Specifically love 80s hair metal and hard rock, and prog rock/metal. Lately I've had Sleep Token albums on constant rotation.
