How diverse is your taste in music?

I like any type of metal and the harder classic rock. And then I like soundtrack music. Movie scores and such.
by the way, is your avatar hugh laurie's face glued onto dr. freeman's body?DarkRyter said:
and to make this relevant: I have at least one song from every genre of music I know of except gangsta rap. and country. technically I do have Devil Went Down to Georgia, but that's too cool to call country.
Jazz, Electronic, Classic Rock, Metal, and Alternative. I like most music as long as it's not Hip Hop, Rap, (most) Country, or Pop. Exceptions for all cases though.
Iron Maiden/Metallica/Kiss/the Beatles/....So not very diverse. Also as long as a song has soul and meaning to it, I'll listen passionately.
Also, I hate metal elitists, not just on the internet but the ones that annoy you at school, I don't give a shit if you think "Avengened Sevenfold sucks!". Sheesh, people these days can be such ignorant assholes.

My music choice consists of... wait, why is this in Gaming Discussion? *ahem*, my music choice consists of Hard Rock, Classic Rock, Classic Metal, Classic Rap, Classic Hip hop, 90's - Modern Techno, Raprock, and (some) Rap. Also I listen to single songs of various genres, such as Wonderlust King, as Gipsy Punk song.

I like Everything but nothing at the same time. I'll listen to anything but I don't go searching for music
I have classical, rock, pop, rap and a dash of jazz on my iPod, and I love it all! Classical's good study/ relaxing music, ambient stuff.
I typically stick to rock and electronic, with a bit of metal and alternative tossed in.
NEVER rap or country though. Or anything along those lines. Just not my style.
NEVER rap or country though. Or anything along those lines. Just not my style.
My music diversity stretches to all good music. I used to say that I wouldn't listen to rap, but then I found a number of rappers that were great. I said I wouldn't listen to country and ended up finding a few that I could relate with.
There is only one genre of music that I find it even a little difficult to enjoy. That genre would be death metal. The reason I have difficulties with it is because I was raised in a very musical household(choir music) and I recognize what the lead singers are doing to their vocal chords. This makes death metal almost painful for me to hear.

I'll list some notable bands/artists on my itunes.

Pretty diverse I'd say

I literally like anything and everything with the following exceptions, Country, Screamo, and I just cannot stand Metallica, other than that, I like almost all types of music.
That is a great set o' bands there! I'm glad to finally find someone else who listens to the Trans-Siberian Orchestra.G1eet said:
As for me, I'm not too diverse in my musical tastes but I think I do alright. The vast majority of what I listen to consists of Alternative, Rock, Hard Rock and Metal. Classical, Rap, Hip-Hop and [small]a little Country[/small] make the list too. I really enjoy playing some freestyle Jazz and/or Funk with my band, which is what we do best, but not big on listening to it. "Christian Rock" sucks musically, for the most part, but I really enjoy a lot of Praise & Worship stuff.
My main genres are mellow rock, anything progressive in nature, and European Metal. But I have a ton of music all over the spectrum from classical to jazz to electronic. I mostly judge a band based off their musical talent and if I can connect in some way with the music(musically or lyrically), although I'm not a music snob and do enjoy a good catchy song on the radio. Most importantly, it comes down to if it sounds good to me, regardless of genre.
While I can listen to Country and Rap( and due to certain friends I can sing a long with most of them on the radio) I have 0 country and a few rappers in my collection. Same goes with a lot of the more poppy rock bands, I just don't connect with what they sing about and since most them are lyrics driven I ignore them.
