I think I'm stuck in a three-way between speed rock, power/epic rock, and punk. - the three of those genres combined make up about 90% of my "official" MP3 folder, the rest being a few outliers and stuff I've downloaded from Newgrounds and such.
This has been another blunder by you friendly local idiot.
In true Stark style, I don't have a 'favourite' genre, just a genre or two that I hate. My most common used MP3s include jazz, classical, industrial, punk, rock, techno, house, rap, metal and most other things. I just fucking hate country 'she crashed my car shot my dog and left me alone with a beer' rubbish. And Ben Harper-esque folksy bland jesus nonsense.
PS, every song in Guitar Hero is great.

What about your mama? I only ask, because I heard that she's at the top of my things to do list.Neko_Oni wrote:Currently obessed with hip-hop. In particular Australian hip-hop due to some superb releases recently, Butterfingers and Hilltop Hoods being the albums in question. The Herd's also another Aussie hip-hop group that's done some excellent stuff recently.
That said my other tastes are pretty broad. Anything except pop and R&B.
Here's a Youtube link for Butterfingers - FIGJAM. Funny stuff. Bonus points for fitting the word bukkake into a hip-hop song.

God I love Butterfingers, if only I could find his albums anywhere here.
I am tempted to put hip-hop near the top, its such an expansive genre, everything from Living Colour and RAtM (to some extent) to RZA and Roots Manuva, through to Butterfingers, some Regurgitator, Gerling and classics like Run DMC, the Beastie Boys, De La Soul and Public Enemy.
The new Butterfingers album is really good, there's a pretty wide variety of sounds on there. Some of it sounds more like Mister Bungle than hip-hop, Ska beats, reggae beats, it's awesome.weemadando wrote:What about your mama?

Just a few questions.
Where do the following bands/artists fit in - they seem to all straddle/defy genres.
The Darkness
David Bowie (pick an era, probably Ziggy Stardust and Thin White Duke)
Sly And The Family Stone
Daft Punk
Bloodhound Gang
Moby
Tenacious D (probably rock, but is too much of their stuff borderline comedic?)

I'd say Tenacious D is pretty much just rock. David Bowie seems pretty rock to me too (at least, Ziggy Stardust does, if a bit Bowie-d). What you call the Darkness probably depends on where you drop the line between rock and metal: they're clearly a spoof on late-Queenesque hair bands etc.

Video game music. Which would probably be classified as "all of the above" then. Currently I'm listening to Mischief Makers, Paper Mario and Super Castlevania IV, which is a wee bit different from one another. Also I like classical music (but obviously not all of it) and generally anything that doesn't have lyrics.
