    I'd vote for Punk Rock, but I've found a better one.
    Electronical Rock.
    Try Celldweller, Blue Stahli or Voicians, they're the best around.

    Punk, metalcore and nu-metal hold places dear to my heart, although contemporary punk is increasingly prevailing. I love any music that is lyrically intelligent and well-observed, not necessarily politically-minded although I very much like that side of things as well.

    My favourite bands at the moment are:
    - The Wonder Years (punk/pop-punk, incredibly intelligent lyrics about topics including homelessness, depression and social-awkwardness)

    - Motionless In White (metalcore with horror movie references and a rich vocabulary of words)

    - Lostprophets (mainstream "post-grunge" music; I was at a Lostprophets show just a few hours ago and I was very entertained).

    Don't really have a preference I like all kinds. 90s numetal, groove metal, progressive, thrash.

    I don't really like anything that's called "core." Seems to be the term for most of the popular modern metal and it's trash.

  • AbnormallyAwesome

    Metalcore

    Out of this bunch I'd take either progressive or industrial. I voted industrial because I'd take aggressive, abrasive music over progressive generally, and I love electronic music.
