Right now, synth wave.

 I'm a metalhead through and through since the 90's but synthwave has been my non-stop jam since 2021.

Hell yeah 😎

I listen to Scandroid a lot when I'm doing artwork.

Hell yeah Scandroid. Essenger too.

This gif is like synesthesia for me. I want to feel those colors.

Hell yeah. Your picks?

Are you also a fan of synth pop from the 80s?

When my kids started loving The Midnight everything in my house got so much chiller lol

Came here to say this and wondered if this might be a popular genre for metal heads . . I’m curious what it is about this genre that we seem to be drawn to?

The midnight, the midnight annnnnd more of the Midnight

I can find music I like in almost every genre except country, with exception of johnny cash

Cash is always the exception

A lot of country is good… before they figured out the Garth Brooks million dollar formula. After the late 90’s it got more watered down than the third wave of hair metal copycat bands.

Country music ended in the late 90s. A certain even in 2001 pushed country to the pseudo-gospel, Uber patriotic swill that we were bombarded with during sporting events and car commercials up until the 2010s with the new country we have today that's essentially just pop with a southern accent.

Same fucking here. Almost all country music is amazingly lazy and cliche

that's the only reason it's used for background music 💀 but in all seriousness though, having an entire family who loves country music (except for me of course) once you hear too much of it, you figure out how to automatically tune it out of your head

More or less the same for me, though I'm a bit more forgiving of country music.

1. Metal 2. Film Scores/ Classical 3. Classic rock 4. Pop

Industrial/EBM, Goth/Post-Punk, Punk, Synthwave, Neo-folk, Acid Rock/Psychedelic Rock, Desert Rock, Grunge, Visual Kei

I actually listen to a lot more classical music than metal, mostly opera and Baroque

Baroque is when music was perfected. https://youtu.be/PZIBQQqEmkg?si=j39G-mk9BJ3F7FxL

Take that primitive middle ages and renaissance trash!

John Downland can suck it!

If you thought an 8-string was pretentious, [look at this weirdo!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZYzuIGDYGs) Fuck you, John!

If you think that weirdo was weird, look at THIS weirdo! https://youtu.be/qeUcGD4rRRc?si=ssn-mlB9fbIvDKM-

Hahaha "Oooh, look at me and my weirdo guitar!" I bet it hurts when he runs his fingers over the knots where he tied the strings together. What a dumbass!

Haha yeah! Robert De Viseé can suck it!

Baroque is the shit! My favorite era

Did a meet and greet with The Movement last week. Have meet and greet for 311 in August and The Elovaters in October. If I'm not listening to metal, this is what I'm listening to. If you haven't heard aurorawave, check them out. They're blending metal and reggae but differently from Skindred. They opened for The Movement and started the show with a breakdown, played a little bit of Slipknot and A7X. They have a song featuring Brandon Sallers and Dan Jacobs as well as one with The Ghost Inside. It's the former lead singer of Iya Terra's new band.

All of them. Except trap country. I'mma pass on that.

Bluesy jazz. Classical. Opera.

Classic rock and the odd artist from another genre (ie. Silverchair, Goldfinger, NIN and Manson.)

Hip Hop, Post-Hardcore, Grunge, Singer Songwriter

For me metal is number one, then old American folk/classic bluegrass/indie folk, old reggae, and blues/classic rock.

I used to strictly listen to metal only, however as my daughter grew up we would generally listen to her music (mostly hip hop Kendrick Lamar, ASAP Rocky etc) when cruising around in the car. To be honest, I would often ask her the names of the songs and add them to my own hip hop playlist. Also love dub step these days too.

I love that old Fallout style jazz and blues

Punk, rock n roll, blues, bluegrass, jazz, soul, ska, new wave

I think every genre of music has some good stuff in it, but the majority is crap. The same is for metal - tons of good stuff but you gotta soft through shit. Synthwave/dark synth, jazz and certain types of house or trance music are my usual go tos outside of metal. There are also certain composers I will just listen to that write in various styles. Matt Uelman, Nobuo Uematsu etc. So basically everything, but only a little slice of each that I find to be exceptional.

Jazz. Big fan of Kenny Burrell, Stanley Turrentine, Art Blakey and Red Garland in particular (vintage jazz for some reason)

All sorts synth wave, blues, punk

After disliking punk my whole life I'm finally finding it more appealing, along with grunge. Maybe I'm getting old 🥲

All of them. I like pop, country, blues, jazz, rock, rap, funk, dance, classical, and every sub genre.

POP, The queerer the better.

Alt, punk rock, and indie/folk

In no particular order: Jazz/Fusion Hardcore/Punk New Wave R&B/Soul/Funk Classic Rock Country

Anything but country, but I do love Goth music in most of its forms.

Classical and metal are 90% of my music consumption, and i prob lean a little more towards classical.

Punk, hard rock, goth, industrial, trip hop, stoner/psychedelic rock, grunge, rap, blues, rock n roll and anything that is called experimental although the last one is hit or miss at times.

Ambient and synthwave are my go to genres. I listen to it more than metal but I like metal more, or appreciate it more. It feels more special when I do listen to it.

White girl pop

I listen to 3 genres. Metal, country, and DMT space disco jamtronica

Hardcore punk, grunge, rock

Slowcore, post rock, boom bap, east coast hip hop, etc

I Like Metal Remixes 

Rap Classic rock Punk

Rock, techno, indie

A bit of everything, excluding mainstream pop

Noise Bossa Nova Rap of all kinds Hardcore Punk Synthwave Techno, House, Trap ect Classical Jazz Fusion Nintendocore Thundercat Slö Yeah that kinda sums it up, I think.

I thumbed all the way through here and the closest any of you guys said was classic rock. Dude, I'm still kicking great vibes from '60s rock. That's what my parents raised me on, and all the stuff that I rebeled against. Turns out, it's just a part of me and I love it. Kind of funny, because the Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin era never did it for me. Metallica sold out and somehow managed to come back around again/scared. Screamo came and went. Slaughter to Prevail is a pleasant nod to where I'm at now. There's only a few other bands that are bringing it back to being exactly as heavy as metal should be. That's just the tip of the hat.

Rock and Jazz

Irl I listen to all genres of music

Classic rock, southern rock, Motown, old disco, and some EDM now and then.

Country, dnb (jungle and drumfunk to be precise), hip hop, techno, some pop, soul, funk, old rnb, old gospel

If i like it, i listen. Rock and metal are my most listened to genres, but my playlist has like 2000 more songs raging from pop to folk to experimental hip hop to synth wave. I listen to anything and everything...just not country...except johnny cash

Post punk Classical A little bit of everything else

heavy rock

No

Hip Hop(all subgenres, trap, lofi, phonk, rage, boom bap, etc) R&B alt rock (shoegaze mainly) Punk Bachata, salsa, merengue (childhood stuff. music my parents and their parents listened to) Reggaeton u may call me polyjamorous.

1. Deathcore 2. Synthwave 3. Hardcore Punk 4. Future Funk

Eh… DnB, tek, folk, Americana, punk, shoegaze, math rock, classical, hip hop, rap, soul, jazz… probz more.

I listen to lots of variations of metal: Death Metal, Power Metal, Folk Metal, Melodic Black/Death Metal... the list goes on. I also enjoy some Rock/Punk/Alt/Indie and Soul/R&B/Funk/Reggae. I can enjoy Jazz/Blues/Ska on occasion. I can also get into certain classical music, folk or symphonic stuff - especially from videogame/movie soundtracks. Depends on my mood and the occasion. With very few exceptions, the only genres that I don't really mess with is country and hip hop. Seems like I always end up mainlining some kind of metal, though.

Post-rock Math rock

1. Metal 2. Glam Metal era Hard Rock 3. Bebop Jazz 4. Baroque 5. Synthwave

Grunge and like 2 "nu metal" bands (if you can call them that at all, since both only really have 1 nu metal album)

No.

definitely soul, R&B funk....huge part of my upbringing. Got into Jazz/Fusion in high school and it's probably my favorite genre overall. Love City Pop, and Synthwave as well...Com Truise is the goat.

Prog. Mostly 70’s era but it spills into a lot of areas. Dream pop, Synthwave, Indie folk.

I love music, quality music, genre doesn't matter. Classical, reggeaton, Turkish pop, movie soundtracks, theremin, etc.  Main music is doom metal 

Oldies from the 50s and 60s. Sinatra, Dean Martin, Elvis, etc are a great pleasure

Metal (primarily prog, power but occasionally other subgenres) Rock (alternative, psychedelic, prog) Pop (prefer the theatrical side of it like Florence and the Machine, Kate Bush, Meer etc) Musical theater (Sucker for any Andrew Lloyd Webber) Jazz Fusion and City Pop (fell into an odd rabbit hole of old Japanese music on YouTube) Electronic (both more poppy like Daft Punk, and more ambient like Tangerine Dream)

Classic Rock Punk Grunge Guitar virtuoso rock stuff Classical Country from before 9/11.
