Metal, breakcore, and whatever genre kobaryo is

Legitimately almost every genre, as long as I'm the mood. Lately tho I've mostly been listening to The Fall of Troy, Blink-182, Dance Gavin Dance, This Town Needs Guns, and good ole Pro Era artists like Capital Steez and Joey Bada$$.

Ska Punk, rock, and power metal. My favourite bands at the moment are:

Streetlight Manifesto/Catch 22/BOTAR (Absolutely phenominal in every way)

Night Gaunts

Bomb The Music Industry! (And Jeff Rosenstock's other projects)

Beast In Black

NanowaR of Steel

Reel Big Fish

Less Than Jake

Mad Caddies

The Trews

Semisonic

Flogging Molly

Alestorm

I'm really into mid 2000s pop-punk. Obviously the big ones like blink-182 and Green Day, but also a bunch of the smaller ones like The Starting Line, Rufio, New Found Glory, etc. Those were the bands I listened to when I was learning to play guitar. I learned so many of their songs because they were easy AF (except Rufio). And I guess those songs really stuck with me.

I almost exclusively listen to video game music. I've been listening to a lot of music from Pokemon Black and White lately.

I love most electronic music with my favourite subgenre being electro. Although dubstep and a trance are also up there rn

Mostly rock. Specifically love 80s hair metal and hard rock, and prog rock/metal. Lately I've had Sleep Token albums on constant rotation.

Most flavours of metal, hard rock, punk, some blues stuff like SRV and Gary Moore. Basically, if it has loud guitars in it, I'm there.

I listen to a bit of everything. Bands in my recent rotation include Low, 3rd Secret, Motörhead, Rick James, L7 and Joji, Aimee Mann, Mdou Moctar, Aphex Twin, Beastie Boys. Donny Benet

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard’s PetroDragon Apocalypse is my favorite album all year.

My favorite all time genre is industrial. So stuff like The Young Gods, Nine Inch Nails, Skinny Puppy, Front Line Assembly, KMFDM, Ministry, Filter, Mulitple Man, Meat Beat Manifesto, Pig, Emptyset, Youth Code, Atari Teenage Riot / Alec Empire, My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult, Download…

Mostly Irish folk (with a healthy infusion of Irish rebel music mixed in)

Drake, 90s rap, classic rock and Tame Impala.

Synthpop, new wave, dark wave, cold wave, minimal wave, post-punk, goth rock....

...but like synthpop more than anything else. I gotta have those hooks. <3

Happy to listen to lots of stuff though. Some others that come to mind right away: Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Kylie Minogue, Madonna, Moist, Technotronic, early Skinny Puppy, Gunship, Luis Ake...

I'm slightly biased towards progressive rock (Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin), vanera (Baitaca, Os Serranos), neofolk and folk metal (Faun, Korpiklaani... does Kayah's album with Bregović count?), some punk and grunge (The Offspring is still one of my favs). But it's a bit too messy to generalise.

Last four concerts were Erykah Badu, Blood Red Shoes, Marcy Playground and Tears for Fears. They were all amazing and you can't really go wrong with any album from any of them.

I'm all over the place. Willie Nelson, Rodrigo y Gabriella, OutKast, The Cure, Beck, Blackalicious, B-52s, Talking Heads, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, James Brown, The Clash, Ray Charles, Jonny Cash, The Who, ELO, The Beatles, The Guess Who.

Basically I start with listening to different genres of music, and add them into a big playlist and keep looking for new music to add to the playlist. I love finding collaborations that bands have done and spinoff bands.

I’m into everything tbh.

Lately I’ve been getting into the following:

Teenage Fanclub (song is The Concept)

The Lemon Twigs (song is In My Head)

Tainy (song is FANTASMA | AVC)

Duster (song is Constellations)

Alex G (song is Mary)

I guess that’s mostly alt-rock, slacker rock type stuff. Except Tainy… But damn DATA is fucking good man.
