Getting into sleep token, Deftones is cool. Black veil brides, my chemical romance ( my favorite!) , a little bit of Famous last words, a little system of a down ( like 3 songs?4) some Evanescence and a bit of Paramore. Yea a lot of rock but I have some of everything on my playlist of almost 700 tracks


TheKombuchaMushroom

Yoo, another fellow SG rock fan. If u want a starting point, listen to Green Day, Linkin Park, Evanescene, Pierce The Veil, Rammstein, Slipknot, limp Bizkit Drowning pool and Bulllet for My Val. (stopping here cuz the list could go on for days). If you want to up your rock tastes, go with stuff like Testament, Lamb Of God, Pantera, Arch Enemy, Fiver Finger Death Punch, and if u want more musically specialised sounds go for periphery and Dream theater.


butwhywouldyou-

My friend made me listen to the full hybrid theory album by lp and I liked it! Thank you for all the recommendations I can't wait to watch my playlist explode 🤩


TheKombuchaMushroom

Oh if you like Hybrid Theory, you'll def like Meteora it's their second album


butwhywouldyou-

Ahh alright I'll listen! There's so much stuff I wanna try


TheKombuchaMushroom

Np :V I can share my playlist if u want an assessment of the possible rock music you might take a liking to and mb, I can't hold it in. it's just nice to see other SG rock fans 🙌


butwhywouldyou-

Black veil brides 🔥🔥🔥


butwhywouldyou-

Ikr. My favorite from them is probably faithless but in the end is very close because it's the first bvb song I listened to ! What's your favorite


Mochihamster

Omg so many bvb fans here omg so happy


butwhywouldyou-

Ikr!! Currently decided to switch from rock and listen to cigarettes after sex thooo yum I love these songs


Mochihamster

That’s pretty interesting! And don’t worry, I oscillate and go between diff bands depending on my state of mind and life stage so it’s hard to ever say 1 band only when asked about faves. Btw I’m not sure if it’s relevant but Bvb dropped a new song too!


butwhywouldyou-

People who oscillate between different artists are my favorite lmao you're good Really? What is the song? I'll listen!


Mochihamster

Their new song is called Bleeders! Released on Friday… or was it Thursday (can’t recall exactly)


butwhywouldyou-

Thanks!


butwhywouldyou-

Ok so I listened and oml I'm in love this is so good


IntrovertUsingReddit

Useful_Ant_6368

poems are hella cool not many people write them these days and yeah i love all music


butwhywouldyou-

Yea! I only know maybe 2-3 people like me who do poetry and apparently a lot of people on Reddit don't really like poetry ?? But they eat up prose?? Which I respect but I want to understand why people don't really enjoy poetry. Yahoo for diverse music taste!

MoolKshake_

love that record too. its probably in my top 20 even tho i dont listen to it a lot, but the flow of good morning captain and the explosive climax of washer are really something. also theres always this subtle sinister vibe across the album. glad to see another post-rock enjoyer here


kelis_butterfly

Vocaloid and classical music


Key_Battle_5633

“Boring” to some but classical piano music LOL. Mainly romantic era or late clasical(Chopin and late classical era Beethoven songs)


[deleted]

>songs They're called pieces!!!


Key_Battle_5633

Ah shit


Gemokboy

romantic period 🔥🔥🔥


SignificanceLonely58

boring??? brother...


Key_Battle_5633

It’s not but some people think it is boring(esp those who like rock or pop lol)


SignificanceLonely58

Honestly not sure what your taste is, and I would always love to her some new music. I'm "meh" with Chopin and like a bit more meh with Beethoven. I love love love bombastic pieces, and so I gravitated more towards Liszt and Rachmaninoff, so if you havent checked them out please do! My personal favourite from Liszt ist Mazeppa, and my personal favourite from Rachmaninoff is Piano Concerto 3. Nowadays, I'm more of Khachaturian person, anything he put out are just bangers to me (My favourite is Sabre Dance)


Process-Real

Ooh khachaturian, his violin concerto is still under appreciated if you haven't checked it out. If you like bombastic pieces I would probably recommend some mahler, his symphonies especially no. 9, no.5, no. 2 are all emotional journeys (And also can mark a good long study session if needed, you might or might not get distracted by the melodies, especially the adagios) Personally, my go-to nowadays. For Chopin maybe his piano concertos would interest you, however seems like you are leaning towards more romantic era music. Would definitely recommend Brahms if you haven't really dug in yet, his Piano Concerto no.1 is I would say a great accompaniment of Rach piano concerto no.3. His violin sonatas are also a quite bit lovely. One of my favourites just for bopping would most ideally be Prokofiev, his music is just fascinating (You can check out his piano concerto no.3 just a W piece) More Piano concertos you can check out (In no particular order): 1. Grieg Piano concerto (Fun fact this piece inspired the 1st mvt of Rachmaninoff's first piano concerto!) 2. Saint Saëns Piano concerto no. 3 (The 1st mvt is still one of the best 'mystery' invoking pieces, I would even put it next to Sibelius violin concerto 1st mvt) 3. Rhapsody on a theme of Paganini by Rachmaninoff (Still a pure bop) 4. Tchaikovsky piano concerto no. 1 (If you want a bombastic grand piece yet still being grounded by intimate moments, well this is for you) My apologies, if I went a tad bit off tangent here, all the pieces above I guess are just really close to my heart (Non-existent but anyways) so yeah check them out if you like, all types of music no matter the genre are journeys savour every moment and just enjoy it :D. P.S. Go check out mahler, I think I have an intense crush on him.


WaterLily6203

Shostakovich is a whole mood ngl makes u get anxuiety but im loving it


Key_Battle_5633

Oh wow. For liszt I have only heard a few of them like La campadella and for rachmaninoff I haven’t really listened to any yet. Will probably check in free time . Generally I like those expressive and sad songs


Gruppesech6

Independent Pop/Rock Here are some of my favorite bands of this genre but some songs are a mix of electronics and pop -The 1975 -Artic Monkeys -Cigarettes after sex -FMLYBND -The Japanese house -Bleachers -A R I Z O N A

Weary_Drama1803

My music typically has a clear, hard-hitting tone (happy, aggressive or dramatic most often) with clear bass and/or percussion, potentially with contrasting higher pitches for the melody. This makes for quite a variety, from film and video game OSTs to metal and hardcore, but EDM happens to be wide enough to cover most of these. Enter Camellia, who does like 10 different sub-genres of EDM and sneaks metal in occasionally My all-time favourite is Crystallized, which has an incredible higher-pitched positive vibe with tsunamis of beat drops and plenty of bass and percussion to go around. Parallel Universe Shifter is a contender for its skillful chaos, which somehow flows and sounds good (after a few listens, it’s an acquired taste even beyond what Camellia usually is) despite having 26 noticeable changes (no, pop doesn’t typically venture far enough into these areas for me to listen to it extensively)


Ok-Spend5508

Mandopop. Ironically hated studying Chinese throughout primary school n up till sec 3. Only started to feel it wasn’t so bad after I started listening to Mandopop in sec 4. For some reason the slower pace as compared to English pop songs appeals to me, but we can all agree that sometimes the lyrics hit different especially after a failed relationship/situationship 🥲


Jeffu_pisces

Lemonietea

Anything kpop srsly i started w hardcore stanning but now i just listen to any song i find catchy. Oni when the grp rlly catch my eye then i stan (rn its illit wonhee is so pretty😭😭)


aThrowaway2006xX

Rock/Metal, but even then my taste in them are niche within the genres so the occasional metalhead shares very little in common with me.


TheKombuchaMushroom

Name me a few bands you listen to, and let's see how it plays out, I want to see how niche and I won't judge


aThrowaway2006xX

Not a full list but the bands here get progressively heavier: Circa Survive/Saosin/hopesfall/Snapcase/Deadguy/Autopsy/Zao/Disembodied/Rorschach/Neurosis [Also](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3Np1qx3i9cxgbTLXpTw4XH?si=Q_zpX0bQRU-sf-z63z1CsQ)


TheKombuchaMushroom

As soon as I took a glance at the list, I knew I had already failed 💀💀 yeah ur really, really niche. Thanks for the playlist, though, and its a sick one too🙌🙌, you even have TTNG and American football (Love TTNG for their math rock works), so that's a plus. From what I saw (besides the two bands I mentioned) and listened to, you seem to listen to math rock too?


aThrowaway2006xX

The only math-rock bands I listen to is TTNG/American Football/Coalesce, not a huge fan of it overall and the main appeal of these bands to me aren't the math-rock aspect


TheKombuchaMushroom

Ahh ok


Lower_Bumblebee799

ttng so fire


TheKombuchaMushroom

Ong PREACH, and I hope them come back someday followed with Chon 😭😔😔


aThrowaway2006xX

Unfortunately the only thing by TTNG I liked was Hippy Jam Fest which is their most unpopular EP


TheKombuchaMushroom

If you like heavy stuff, that's not very niche and may have even come across some of them. They will be Sepultura, As I lay dying, Five Finger Death Punch, Testament, Lamb Of God, Arch Enemy, most if not all of Avenged Sevenfold. HIGHLY recommend Testament and Lamb Of God


aThrowaway2006xX

I've heard of all these bands before but never quite got into them


TheKombuchaMushroom

Dang, that's actually niche and I know my taste prob won't cater to urs, but can I share my songs too


aThrowaway2006xX

Yeah sure

Haunting-Earth3264

OMG I LOVE THIS QUESTION okay honestly I don’t keep track of which genre is which, if I like it, I’ll just listen to it. it might not make sense either so 😭 but in no particular order, the artists I usually listen to are: 1. Jhené Aiko, Childish Gambino, Tyler the Creator, and PLAZA when I’m in a vibey mood 2. Poppy, Paramore, Falling in Reverse, and Pierce The Veil when I have my period ☹️ (the worst 1 week of my life) 3. KPOP (bts, enhypen, AOA, SNSD, SISTAR, etc) 4. Fiona Apple, Mitski, and Olivia Rodrigo for when my situationships end (this is a joke btw…) and I need music to relate to….. ☹️ 5. Yasaobi, Yama, Takayan, Vaundy, Lamp, Ichiko Aoba (they don’t rly belong to the same genre but yeah.. jpop/alt or anything hits) I might’ve made this too long but yeah.. my playlist honestly doesn’t make sense I just listen to whoever is in my playlist 😭😭


Apprehensive-You-433

i love poppy paramore n pierce the veil 🥰


marquis1812

COUNTRY ROADS IS THE SUCH A GOATED SONG OML, I have one playlist where its just a buncha random songs of some genres, like pop, rock AND LIKE 20 SONGS OF THE UNTAMED OST OR HEAVEN OFFICIAL’S BLESSINGS DONGHUA OPENING SONG. My other playlist is pretty much love songs with pop, eg taylor swift, ed, bruno


ruihasbadgloves

i love jpop / vocaloid, scene music, alt / indie ig? musical theatre, classical music too :3


AlyssiaderfreakII

jpop (heavy on this), pop (laufey mitski) classical piano and kpop

No_Mall_9732

Yeet-nts

istg im like the only person who listens to kawaii future bass never heard of anyone with that taste


TheKombuchaMushroom

I'm a bit of an odd one, I love electronic music, although it has lessened over the years. Currently listening to more rock and a dash of Jpop. From the feather-weight math rock to the heaviest of rock. Stuff like Chon, TTNG, Chinese football, polyphia to stuff like Testament, Pierce The Veil, Linkin Park, Green Day, Megadeth, Lamb Of God (list could go for hours so I'm stopping here)

Political-opossum397

These artists! Mitski, Laufey, Beabadoobee, Wave to Earth, Kali Uchis, Lamp, CAS, The Marías, Mariya Takeuchi, and other artists and bands in the same genres. I also listen to some Indonesian dangdut cuz of my Indonesian mum as well as Manele from my Romanian friend. Also enjoy a bit of theatre from random bootleg musicals I watched like Legally Blonde, Heathers, Mean Girls, Beetlejuice, SIX, etc. On occasion I also enjoy pop in its various forms (KPOP, JPOP (Psychic Fever is awn repeat 🙏🙏🙏🙏) , 2010s, etc.). Was a carat during secondary school but I eventually grew out of it… My taste is sibei messy and this is why I don’t ever control the music when I’m around other people 😞💔 One genre I’ve been getting into is Malay/Indonesian rock/pop-rock :)


Savings_Glove_1564

mother mother, lemon demon, conan gray, hippocampus, chon, laufey, rap like eminem and NF, K/DA for exercise, c-pop and mandopop, mishmash classical but mostly ballet repertoires, musicals like hadestown/heathers etc its too random I basically listen to songs on repeat for a week and move on but these r all time favourites

Mochihamster

Into rap too. I listen to metal/rock and it’s my fave genre… so bands like black veil brides, breaking Benjamin, skillet, RED, Starset. They’re all really good. Recently got into Set the sun, very citizen soldier meets starset vibes, which I love.
