Any style of music can be horrible or good depending on many things.
For example I am a big fan of metal, but I've heard some awful metal bands and songs.
I also don't really like most pop as well as newer country and rap, but some of the songs can be really catchy and good so it depends on more than just the genre whether or not I like the song.
Usually when I don't like a song it's because it irritates me. There's also a lot of music I find boring for reasons such as being repetitive, but I just find that stuff boring and uninteresting rather than irritating.
My favorite songs are ones that keep me entertained and stimulated which is something I like about a lot of metal. I usually prefer fast music with lots of different parts and instruments.
I don't like defining music into genres.
Newer pop country type of shit and free form jazz or some garbage like that. I'm not even sure what its called. And dumpstep.
You've seduced me with your awkwardness by beating me to the proverbial punch. Dumpstep sounds like an ogre taking a shit!
:-)
yup^ it a tie between Dumpstep and this terrible Pop/country they try top pass off as country.
I like real country damnnit, gimme my Pasty Cline, and Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson
Not this she think my tractors sexy Bullshit GACCCCKKKKK
I love experemental music but even I hate freeform jazz that and merzbow is my limit
I absolutely hate Dumbstep. Annoying and talentless. Will never understand why it's popular.
I've never been able to accept rap as a music form. Perhaps urban poetry or some other classification of art, but music, nope.
I'd have to say reggae. i've found the stuff i've heard repetitive apart from the odd Marley song I like but mostly because it's it's own thing, it's not easily encorporated into other genre's I listen to, I don't like country but early modest mouse has country elements among the experementation and raw indie rock, the eagles have some good stuff and they have country influence.
Jazz is something else I don't really listen to but i enjoy music with jazz influence like the alt rock bad the mars volta or the experimental hip hop group shabazz palaces.
So I don't like reggae and I haven't heard any other genre incorperate it which I respect but it means I don't enjoy it or it's influences
damn I didn't even think of johnny cash. that changes things a bit. there are so many grey areas with music
your description of an alt rock band with jazz influence piqued my interest, so I looked em up and love their song The Widow on first listen. so in a way, thanks for introducing me to them!
Wait thinking about it I love johnny cash but his later stuff like hung my head, not sure if it counts as country though i think of it more as just acoustic
Don't care for dubstep or any kind of tencho music,
although with every other genre of music, there will be at least a few songs I don't mind, or like.
Pop and that shit those "scene" kids (or whatever they're calling them) listen to.
I really get turned off by a lot of poppy modern metal music (e.g. bands like Asking Alexandria and Five Finger Death Punch), mainly due to the typical content of lyrics and the really same-y instrumentals. When I was in high school some of my favourite bands were in that genre, but I've become increasingly less interested with time. I do still enjoy the energy in a lot of that music, but I think you can get better energy in harsher genres of metal and without offensive lyrics or melodrama. I don't know if I'd say it's my "least favourite genre", but it's the first that came to mind for genres I can't find much I like in. I'm sure I could think of a lot I dislike more.
My least favourite out of your list is Metal.
I also hate Gabba and Happy Hardcore music, as well as the majority of the Pop music in the charts.
Also, I know people give Dubstep a hard time, but I think the majority of the userbase here would have been exposed to it via American 'Brostep' producers.
When Dubstep started in the UK, it was a really interesting, minimal sound; a fusion of Dub elements, 2-step and Garage, with loads of atmosphere that suited the dirty urban landscape of inner-city London.
What it is now is a strange hybrid version of what it was then - for one, Britney Spears, Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift have incorporated elements of it into a couple of their songs! It's a shame really.
I didnt know what was electronic so youtubed, sounded like daft punk who are definitely likable (albeit overplayed)
it's gotta be country. I can probably count on my fingers the amount of songs I've ever liked from that genre. Rap could've been least liked too but I realized it is modern rap that's made me not care for the genre anymore. for instance, Shit by Future is so asphyxiating-ly ridiculous it literally makes me laugh and cheers me up (which technically must mean I like the song. hmm). eminem, dr. dre and nas's old stuff was decent.
I like every other genre on that list.
Electronic music as a genre is hugely diverse - it's a bit too broad a term really.
It incorporates House, Dubstep, Trance, Drum 'n' Bass, Industrial, Downtempo, Garage, Ambient, Electro etc. etc. all of which have their own sub genres and sub-sub genres.
There's pretty much something for everyone, but there's as much bad as there is good. It's worth checking out more than just Daft Punk (who produce House music) if you've the time :)
