Poll: How Hard/Heavy do you like your music?

[DJDarque]

I'm all over the board. But one of my favorite bands is

Spoiler: We Butter The Bread With Butter

so I guess I like my music pretty damn heavy. What is this example, 10? 11?

The mixture of yells, screams and growls reminds me of this.

Spoiler: Sicmonic

They're a local band from here in Phoenix. Your choice is obviously a little bit harder, and sadly this is probably one of their hardest songs, but just thought I'd share.

as 11 as I can find...
12 if you can find it.

 

[G1eet]

1 to 10, but mostly wherever you'd throw Between the Buried & Me.

 

[Lerxst]

Up to and including 7 on this list. Although if 1 includes Led Zeppelin, I wonder where the Beatles fall on this list...

 

[The Man With the Soap]

Give me everything from one to six-hundred sixty-six.

 

[theironbat46]

"I like my coffee black, just like my metal." Whoever gets that wins some of my respect.
I can go 1-7.

 

[drzoidbergmd]

10. I've broken so many pairs of headphones with the volume/sheer bass of some of my music. Doom and Death all the way \m/

 

[astrav1]

I'm probably in the 7 range.

 

[Grayjack]

I can go up to 9-10 before it gets a little too heavy for me.

Spoiler: Folk Core sounds pretty cool.

You're the only person I've ever come across who even knows who Eluveitie is. All of their music is fantastic, even their folk album.

EDIT: Fixed typo.

Yay! Do I win?

 

[Wilko316]

Mainly I'm at around 9-10, but sometimes stuff like Anal **** is good just for the funny lyrics with songs like 'I Lit Your Baby On Fire' and 'You Gave Up Heroin, Pussy'.

 

[EightGaugeHippo]

I will listen to anything rocking 1-10.
I tend to listen in the 7-10 area the most.

Also nice Spinal Tap refrence in the scale.

 

[MoeTheMonk]

I prefer music around 2-4 but I still like to listen to music up to about 7ish.

I LOATHE with the burning passion of a thousand suns, music around the 10-11 range. I thought gangsta rap was the worst music until I started hearing that kinda stuff.

 

[FightThePower]

The scale only really works for rock and metal though, so keep that in mind.

Well that sort of excludes me from this entirely. I would have thought this could apply to electro/techno/punk as well.

Spoiler: Examples

I think those fall between 8 and 10.

Mind you, I like stuff down much lower than that as well.

 

[brumley53]

up to eleven, which should be Strapping young lad not anal **** since anal **** arent even trying to make music.

 

[pendragon177]

I'm usually around 3-8. BTW Awesome choice for number 3. Gotta Love They Might Be Giants.
This is my favourite song of theirs.

Spoiler: Spoiler! Click for my favourite song.

 

[NoNameMcgee]

Up to about 6 or 7, but this isn't my type of music.

 

[Death God]

Between 1 and 2. I'm not into the really heavy stuff but more classic rock. Aerosmith, Billy Joel, ect.

 

[smithy_2045]

Up to an 8. There might be one or two exceptions higher than that, but once the singing goes out the window I generally don't find it appealing any more.

 

[TheSanityAssassin]

i think that a better example of 11 would be something that's actually good like fleshgod apocalypse or something.
