My mom loves Mana man....and she likes other stuff like that (la ley, fobia etc.) i can't stand that :(

Oh yeah I got my dad a couple PT albums for his bday this year.

My mom likes poppier stuff but like Gothic Metal, Dream Theater, etc but there's a smattering of bands she'll get into. Mago de Oz she really likes too.

[badtaste]

My parents didn't and still don't do music.

[big80smullet]

my old man likes supertramp and pink floyd.

[ghettoeddo]

I was raised by ostriches

i was raised purely on classical music.

oh asians.

[Permanent Solution]

I wish I could get my parents into Infected Mushroom but I think it would be too electronic for them. I tried Juno Reactor and they were like omg rave music :(

[Txus]

My girlfriends dad listens to lots and lots of trance, it's quite funny to see a dude in his late 40's listening to that stuff.

[Permanent Solution]

Hah, I guess. Just means he's a party animal ;)

[McP3000]

the tronn posts in here grade AAA


Anyway, my dad likes Led Zeppelin, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Allman Bros, and a bunch of old school 50's r&b/Luther Vandross (I wanna lay you down woman) stuff.

My mom likes Linkin Park :(

[christsimpson]

I was raised on KISS, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, The Doors and later European 70s and 80s punk and later Guns N' Roses, Nirvana, Alice and Chains, Soundgarden and even later Korn, Slipknot, Mudvayne and Mushroomhead and even later tnbm and uh Cradle of Filth and Bal-Sagoth.

also my father showed me Hüsker Dü sometime in between this so I checked out a lot of 80s hardcore bands to find out I definitely dig. and then I got an Embrace cassette from somewhere and found out about Rites of Spring and uh got emo basically.

[Pebster49]

I got my dad into Opeth(only the non-growling songs, as he says haha), Agalloch, and Porcupine Tree

[Wish]

My father likes Jethro Tull, Spyro Gyra and Eric Clapton to name a few. My mother likes Radiohead, Pink Floyd (they both do actually), Led Zeppelin and REM amongst others.

[killingyou]

i heard a lot of pink floyd, a lot of queen, i was born to be a anti metallica child only hearing megadeth. black sabbath was always around. and random elton john songs. then some others like boston, lynard skynard, foghat, alice in chains, budgie, ufo, axe, and motley crue.

[Dimmu Burger]

My dad always had on B104 back in the late 80's so we always heard Whitesnake, Tears For Fears, Van Halen etc.

Once I got tapes of my own (yes cassette tapes) I got Classic Queen and Michael Jackson's Thriller + Dangerous. I later got GnR Use Your Illusion 1, Weezer's blue album and DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince cds. My sister got Boyz II Men's II, which I rocked quite a bit.

[Meatplow]

they never really listened to music but there was this one patsy cline tape they used to play all the time that gets me all nostalgic and teary :-]

sorry wish deleted my posts even though i thought we were good friends

im an idiot for thinking that someone as good as wish could ever like a stupid american like me

[HighandDriving]

Micheal Jackson and a bunch of 80s pop.

[ATM]

My dad listens to Frank Zappa, Allman Brothers, and Neil Young.
My mom listens to classical, opera, and oldies.

I got my dad into some stuff, like John Fahey. Actually I remember when I was listening to a lot of folk/viking metal we listened to a compilation on a long car trip. That was hilarious.

[Rogue Six]

Wasn't raised on any music really. My parents are now into gospel and christian music. While I'm into Black metal.. we're quite the contrasting family..

[Nostalgia]

my dad likes classical, folk music, old country, and a lot of zydeco

[pate]

My parents basically repressed music. Still do.

The only music my dad likes is Shania Twain and Inna-Godda-Da-Vida. wtf

My mom likes The Eagles, The Bee Gees, random country, and other 'soft rock' bullshit

[ATM]

Repressed music, why?

[Arachnid]

my mom listened to country and christian contemporary.

my dad listened to kid rock, godsmack and linkin park. he got me started on rock and i just gatewayed into metal. when he complains about my music he knows he really only has himself to blame.

[SlightlyEpic]

My dad is into old punk stuff like The Sex Pistols etc. as well as the likes of Pink Floyd.

My mother, on the other hand, is into all sorts. She went to a Metallica concert in 1986 which is pretty cool.

Does anyone elses parents have an absurd amount of Greatest Hits Cd's and compilations? Because mine seem to have loads.

[pate]

Repressed music, why?

They (she) think that music has to be happy. Super happy.

Even ****ing pop **** gets "That doesn't sound like very nice music" *turns off*

[lak89]

my parents mainly listened to classical music and some opera, i was brought up with mainly those, but they didn't really force anything onto me. Apparently my mum likes Pink Floyd but she never played any of those on the CD player when i was young. Until around I was 12 i started to pick up more pop and rock from my friends, and i slowly geared towards metal a few years later. So what my parents listened to had little to no effect to what i listen to now

[Dimmu Burger]

They (she) think that music has to be happy. Super happy.

Even ****ing pop **** gets "That doesn't sound like very nice music" *turns off*

Have you played them any Doom?

[pate]

No.

If they had ANY clue about real metal they would put me in therapy. They've tried before.

[jrowa001]

my dad mostly listened (and still does) to oldies and some 80's rock. even when i was young i couldnt stand the beatles. my mom always had a pretty open mind about music. Epic by Faith No More was the first music video i ever saw cuz my mom would have mtv on sometimes. my dad doesnt care much for the metal i listen to but he'll tolerate the folk i listen to. my mom will listen and appreciate most of the metal i have, she just isnt so much into the screaming. she also know who King Crimson are which is pretty cool. she alos has a bunch of ELP, Jethro Tull, and Pink Floyd records

[Ceminon]

My mom listens to Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Rammstein (I must say this one surprised me), Nightwish, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Queen, Era, Blackmore's Night and classical music.

[EightMilesHigh]

dad: R. Kelly

mom: Usher

me: T-Pain

[Arachnid]

dad: R. Kelly

mom: Usher

me: T-Pain


well that's only common sense

[Dimmu Burger]

My mom listens to Rammstein (I must say this one surprised me), Queen.

My kinda woman!

[Wayne Benjamin]

my parents into vocal music, dionne warwick, diana ross, stuff like that

[iarescientists]

when i have a kid hes gonna be the hippest nigga on the block

[The Feeding]

My dad listened to Metallica, Motley Crue, Sammy Hagar, Lynard Skynard, Charlie Daniels he was a big southern rock fan! I think it kinda put in my head certain types of music but not much. The only thing i took from him was Metallica and Motley Crue, they are the only 80's glam band i can stomach!!

I only really remember my mom liking Elton John a TON, but the funny thing is when i started getting into metal when i was a teenager she diddn't hate it, she wanted to know who the bands were!! One of the only 50 year old women i know that knows As I Lay Dying among others by name!!

[christsimpson]

my mom was always like "turn down that banging and screaming" when I listened to KISS. as I'm sure you can imagine she wasn't particularly keen on me when I started picking up necro metal and later grindcore and power/emo violence and whatever. she doesn't like noise a lot. she thinks like uh Robbie Williams is too noisy.

[DeathThrashProg]

Mum: African and English Folk stuff.

Dad: Rockabilly, Blues, old fart stuff.

My mum and Dad often ask what music i'm listening to if i put on some Prog Rock or soft Opeth, so idk maybe theyre into it.

My origins were a lot different to theirs,
Pop to compilations (classic rock, rap, hip hop, metal, everything) to GnR to SOAD to Metallica and then an explosion of metal (after a very very brief emo phase!)

[The Feeding]

haha she won't get down on stuff like Cattle Decapitation but you can't win 'em all

[OllieS]

My Mum listens to some funk stuff occasionally. My Dad listens to all kinds of stuff, mostly Rock though. The first song I remember properly liking was Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, by 'Sabbath of course.

[Against Miik!]

Basically classic rock, mainly Zeppelin and Deep Purple, as well as 90's radio rock, since thats the kind of stuff my dads bands always played. I listened to those pretty much exclusively until about 5 years ago when I began finding my own stuff.

[violet empathy1]

but then the week after i went to the LOG concert,and she said she wanted to come again cause i was supposed to go alone. but i thought it sould be too brutal for her.so i went by myself.i donno what she would think of the wall of death.
