Now, this doesn't have to be limited just to the music itself, but the fanbase that it has built up, and perhaps even stereotypical views of it.

Now, I realise most people are going to come here and say pop and rap. I don't hate rap. I hate misogynistic lyrics in any music, and I don't want to judge an entire genre on the mainstream section that espouses the use of guns and rascism. That I hate, but rap itself has produced some pretty great music.

Metal. I can't stand it. The posturing. The OTT nonsense some of the bands spout about being 'Satanic' or evil in some other way. I hate Slayer fans, who never seem to know that another band exists. I hate the snobby elitism of metal fans who refuse to see that sometimes pop music is just about having fun. I hate it so much, waaaaa scream

I don't think you see the places
inside me that I find you

My dislikes are usually limited to certain bands or songs.

It doesn't matter the genre. But if I here nothing but droning that puts me to sleep when I listen to it, I won't like it. My biggest problem is with Angels and Airways. The band just isn't my thing.

Most bands in the Fueled by Ramen Label aren't really my cup of tea either. Though I love Cobra Starship. I'd say they are my exception.

My Chemical Romance irks me in all of these awful ways. The voice, the tones, the music, the fans, and pretty much anything that isn't the band and their personalities make me bleed. Ironically, they are also the only band I've ever met in real life. Dx


And I don't know how we
separate the lies from the truth

I don't really care for country (though I must admit that the fiddle work can be cool). Rap I don't like, Baroque and Classical era music just isn't that great (I think the Romantic era is best for classic music). Most modern pop I despise.

I love modern pop. I like it just the way it are.

I don't like country. I just can't stand it. I like some rap, and some hip-hop, but most of it is just trash. I dislike classical in the literal sense. I find baroque and romantic to be much more inspiring.

What is everyone's problem with country music? D:

I really can't stand rap, if you consider it music at all.

I have t say that I am also one of those people that doesn't like country or rap. I like some jrock, but it takes forever to find a decent song. They're out there, but I can't seem to find them. When that happens I just listen to rock >.<

O.o? Are we listenign to the same country music?

Like Tim McGraw, Brad Paisley, Rascal Flatts?

Not the older stuff, the newer stuff.

Though Sugarland's accent gets on my nerves to no end.

Really...I find that hard to understand, the classical period was really just a bridging period between the baroque and romantic periods. Well, actually, it goes thusly: Baroque, Classical, Beethoven, Romantic. I consider Beethoven an entirely different period, he's too different.

That's sort of it. Baroque was much more elegant, and romantic much more passionate. Classical is just somewhere in the middle, not really going to extremes for either. Mozart is actually my least favorite composer.

Blasphemy! Mozart's is the most "correct" music ever written, and I'm saying that from an objective, music-theory point of view. Please at least tell me you have respect for his compositional skill...

I'll admit that the newer stuff is more bearable, but it's still not the kind of thing that I leap for joy when I hear. I think I have a natural predilection for avoiding banjos in music.

@fallen: The music being 'correct' does not mean that the music is good. A high degree of virtusosity doesn't make listenable music, and to me sounds pretentious. You can respect Mozart's technical skill, but you'd prefer to listen to something a bit less extrvagant and more moving. 'Amadeus' was a great film, while we're on the topic.

Well, maybe being a musician makes it different. But to me, that perfection IS moving, more so then the sweeping, pointless passages that plagued Romanticism. I feel the Romantic period was a low point in Classical music; Impressionism that followed was more amorphous, but it also began to explore a part of music that had never been explored. The current contemporary period is plagued with self-indulgence and oddity for its own sake. so, I consider Classicism and Impressionism the two high points in "serious" music.

I'll agree with you about Romanticism. It's not something that I like in any art form, but the music, God, it's just too self-absorbed. However, one might make that criticism of any music, it's all subjective.
