Masochist
06.27.13 | I dunno...except for that extraordinarily large Alternative slice, I like my new pie. |
foxblood
06.27.13 | shoegaze isn't on my pie and i fail to see how that is even possible |
ViperAces
06.27.13 | the reason for 'rock' is that now all 3 tags affect the chart, and not only the first. |
Masochist
06.27.13 | foxblood - Because damn-near every shoegaze band is also tagged with "Alternative," which itself only takes up 15% of your pie chart. |
Dodecahedron
06.27.13 | BM dropped by 13% |
Adabelle
06.27.13 | I lost 10% emo and some alt/indie but gained a grind chunk, weird |
Cipieron
06.27.13 | it added Blues to my chart. huh. |
Cygnatti
06.27.13 | Alternative is way too big. It's not even funny. |
AliW1993
06.27.13 | 33% alternative. The fuck is that supposed to mean?! |
StallionMang
06.27.13 | Mine didn't change that much, although I got a 5% slice of experimental added to it, pretty cool. |
ILJ
06.27.13 | Went from no progressive slice to prog rock being the biggest.
alt/indie from 33% and biggest to alt being a close second to prog rock at 21%
i now have indie rock as a slice in third
post hardcore retained the same percentage at 12
metal dropped from 19 to 11
folk is now on there which doesn't seem right for me
prog metal rounds out the last slice |
PunchforPunch
06.27.13 | lol 34% post-rock |
Dodecahedron
06.27.13 | I like how it added an Ambient slice though |
demigod!
06.27.13 | rip hip hop |
Adabelle
06.27.13 | Hilarious coz like, ShadowRemains used to have a gnarly chart made up of death metal, black metal and metal and now it's really colourful and has wayyyyyy less metal |
DrMaximus
06.27.13 | I lost 10% black metal and gained 14% progressive rock; 'cause, apparently Kate Bush and Gospel are progressive rock now. |
Masochist
06.27.13 | "Went from no progressive slice to prog rock being the biggest."
Someone on FB (probably John Hanson) pointed out that stuff like August Burns Red, among other bands, is now labeled "Prog Rock." Might've had something to do with it. |
Kman418
06.27.13 | mine is so fucking sexy now holy shit i love it |
Hoppoman
06.27.13 | Managed to gain another 15% progressive in total. |
YakNips
06.27.13 | I was unaware that Touche Amore was a prog rock band |
Masochist
06.27.13 | "I was unaware that Touche Amore was a prog rock band"
Love that they pop up on your pie chart as Prog, yet they aren't even labeled as such on their page. |
Cygnatti
06.27.13 | Touchรฉ amore prog? Fucking lol. |
grizz
06.27.13 | prog rock went from non-existent to second biggest for me, I also got psychedelic, electronic and hardcore slices but I lost metalcore |
Dodecahedron
06.27.13 | I gained a chunk of like 14% of Folk because apparently Opeth and Bathory are Folk, and gained some
Prog Rock because Moonsorrow, Sigh, and Enslaved are prog rock now lol |
ZilbelPing
06.27.13 | Damn I like my pie chart now.
Progressive Rock 23%
Alternative 18%
Post Hardcore 15%
Metal 12%
Progressive Metal 11%
Indie Rock 11%
Metalcore 9% |
Masochist
06.27.13 | grizz - Same for me. I never had it before, but now it's second biggest, which I don't mind.
Also...is there a progressive metal band that ISN'T also labeled progressive rock? |
grizz
06.27.13 | yeah i think that until the prog stuff sorts itself out, anyone visiting this site is gonna think every single user ever has a massive boner for prog |
ZilbelPing
06.27.13 | La Dispute is prog now wtf |
ZilbelPing
06.27.13 | Rush is progressive metal oh damn |
YakNips
06.27.13 | Lol Zibel I'm having that same problem. CTTS and Touche Amore are prog on mine |
bach
06.27.13 | Doesn't really matter what it looks like tbh. |
Masochist
06.27.13 | "Also...is there a progressive metal band that ISN'T also labeled progressive rock?"
I'll answer my own question--Cynic. |
ViperAces
06.27.13 | cynic is jazz tho so lol |
DANcore
06.27.13 | Folk is all the rage these days |
Keyblade
06.27.13 | I lost my black metal slice because people are still tagging Isis and neurosis as prog metal what the fuck
also no gaze yet, not cool. the alternative slice needs to die asap |
balazs
06.27.13 | I lost half of my electronic, gained jazz, ambient, post-rock instead which is great! |
MO
06.27.13 | mine has folk now...which is funny |
Hyperion1001
06.27.13 | mines kvlt i like it |
foxblood
06.27.13 | 'electronic' is my biggest slice, which needs to die |
balazs
06.27.13 | I got progressive rock as the biggest slice now, which is quite accurate |
ffs
06.27.13 | 12% prog rock out of fucken nowhere |
Acanthus
06.27.13 | A lot more Alternative, less Industrial and about the same Electronica. |
JokineAugustus
06.27.13 | Death Metal is still my biggest. I have way more progressive stuff now for some reason. |
Ignimbrite
06.27.13 | fucking everything is getting tagged as progressive rock and it needs to stop |
bakkermaarten007
06.27.13 | Am I the only one with a slice of slowcore? =) |
NordicMindset
06.27.13 | agreed with 4 |
Cygnatti
06.27.13 | bakker, there are only 11 bands tagged as slowcore. |
Drummerboy123
06.27.13 | I lost all of my hip hop stuff :(
Other than that it's actually better. |
Chortles
06.27.13 | ^ it's because hip hop is never tagged as a secondary or tertiary genre, and those count now
kinda unfair rly |
Havey
06.27.13 | slowcore doesnt even exist wtf |
Cygnatti
06.27.13 | yeah, not right now, but click on bakker's profile, then click on slowcore and you'll see the page. it's kinda funny. |
demigod!
06.27.13 | the "rock" slice kinda irks me |
pissbore
06.27.13 | all core genres should just show up as "YES I AM A GAY USER" in the pie chart agreed |
demigod!
06.27.13 | damn |
foxblood
06.27.13 | grindcore? |
bach
06.27.13 | Marginally more fastcore |
demigod!
06.27.13 | dont try and reason with piss and his blind hatred for core |
balazs
06.27.13 | slothcore |
bach
06.27.13 | Demi is right. |
Cygnatti
06.27.13 | "Marginally more fastcore"
I think this is an electronic genre. |
demigod!
06.27.13 | well slowcore is derivitave of emo (emotional hardcore) so yah its hardcore derived
spastic spaz |
Dreamflight
06.27.13 | wow less power metal and more prog and alternative tags now...I feel elite. |
Cygnatti
06.27.13 | bam |
bach
06.27.13 | Who cares? |
wacknizzle
06.27.13 | Way too much inaccurate alternative in my chart. Prog is currently reigning with like 23% which I don't mind. Metalcore used to be like 33% or something crazy, now it's only 14%. |
demigod!
06.27.13 | the genre wars wage on |
Chortles
06.27.13 | wonder what i'd have if i rerated stuff |
demigod!
06.27.13 | probably the same ya have now tbh
maybe some screamo and post hardcore too |
foxblood
06.27.13 | i wonder if i'll ever see someone with new age in their pie |
pissbore
06.27.13 | congrats wack proud of u bro |
wacknizzle
06.27.13 | takk derty tu meh |
SrightryEpic
06.27.13 | My pie chart is totally ruined :c |
ApplicationToHeaven
06.28.13 | "well slowcore is derivitave of emo"
except no, no it isn't |
ShadowRemains
06.28.13 | stupid alternative tag |
NeoSpaz
06.28.13 | it fucked mine up and put progressive rock in, taking away from my metal and punk one, but my hardcore got boosted so (y) |
foxblood
06.28.13 | fuck alternative seriously |
Gwyn.
06.28.13 | this morning apparently all i listened to was progressive metal |
menawati
06.28.13 | my psych still seems intact so im happy |
sonictheplumber
06.28.13 | psych got added to mine for some reason |
climactic
06.28.13 | i lost hip hop and gained punk and post rock which are both really random |
menawati
06.28.13 | sounds like a win there then climactic |
climactic
06.28.13 | i guess my hardcore got transferred over to punk but i literally have like 20 post rock albums rated so its weird |
Gwyn.
06.28.13 | I lost post hardcore and gained progressive rock and alternative, all the other ones remained including hardcore and jazz so yay |
ViralOblivion
06.28.13 | Mind is weird and I lost hip hop completely when it was my 3rd biggest before |
Masochist
06.28.13 | So...is there anyone who managed to keep both Prog Rock and Alternative off their chart? |
climactic
06.28.13 | progressive rock must be kept under control |
ViralOblivion
06.28.13 | I got both progressive rock and metal |
Masochist
06.28.13 | "progressive rock must be kept under control"
Definitely. A lot of unnecessary and untrue tags out there.
|
Cygnatti
06.28.13 | Yeah, I can't wait till alternative and prog rock die down.
I was happy as fuck with alt/indie bein my 2nd highest, but this is ridiculous. |
PortraitsOfDecay
06.28.13 | I lost black metal, thrash, and metalcore but gained emo, alternative, folk, and progressive rock. |
Gwyn.
06.28.13 | has anyone noticed how the pie chart changes when you click on the "ratings" thing? |
Gwyn.
06.28.13 | it changes back to my old pie chart but if i click on see my profile again it changes back to the new one |
Rail
06.28.13 | My ambient seems to be growing, though I do miss the mysterious Other. One thing I don't really get is tagging something as 'house' or 'techno' or whatever, and then tagging it with 'electronic' as well. |
kelas
06.28.13 | this is a good idea but it needs some work because there are some artists being grouped together in genres now that are not even similar like at all |
Mike08
06.28.13 | I used to have 58% metal, now its down to 44%. In its place is a fuck load of prog. I'm so embarrassed, I think I'm going to delete my account now :(
My black is now replaced by more colors than skittles. |
Masochist
06.28.13 | "has anyone noticed how the pie chart changes when you click on the "ratings" thing"
Read the list description ;-) |
Mister Twister
06.28.13 | Thrash dropped 12%. Metal dropped 16%. Power metal climbed 5%. Prog went from 3% to 15% prog-metal as well as 9% prog-rock, for a total increase of 21%. Alternative climbed 2%. Death metal is constant.
Know what? Someone labelled Iron Maiden as prog-metal. |
Funeralopolis
06.28.13 | 15% hip hop disappeared off the face of the earth, metal went down a lot |
kelas
06.28.13 | also the chart feature is seriously broken now |
Keyblade
06.28.13 | another annoying thing is people tagging post rock and anything remotely mellow as ambient, cmon son |
Kman418
06.28.13 | itunes has convinced everyone at my school that anything that isn't rap pop or metal is alternative |
DrMaximus
06.28.13 | The fact that folk is in my pie chart is marginally disturbing. |
kelas
06.28.13 | yeah everything is alternative apparently |
facupm
06.28.13 | my new chart sucks, basically |
Sleaper
06.28.13 | where has my punk gone!!! argh.
i now have indie pop.
sighhhh |
DrMaximus
06.28.13 | You guys need to stop complaining and start voting. Most bands have under 10 votes for a certain genre, so start voting. |
Kman418
06.28.13 | i got piss to pos a powerviolence song on plug i think it was one of the most successful moments of my life |
Ecnalzen
06.28.13 | Post hardcore was my biggest chunk, but it seems to have switched places with alternative now. Also, my soundtracks slice completely disappeared, so that's weird and kinda sucks. |
oltnabrick
06.28.13 | every time i refresh my page my pie chart changes lol swee |
Cygnatti
06.28.13 | ugh, I wanna murder that alternative tag |
Cygnatti
06.28.13 | -I lost other
-gained experimental
-gained prog rock
-I used to have prog metal earlier today, but now it's hip-hop
-I used to have classical earlier today, but now it's funk
not bad, actually. |
Ecnalzen
06.28.13 | I would be down for some classical funk. Lets arrange some Chopin and make it groove a little bit. |
DrMaximus
06.28.13 | I like my chart. It's even. Everything is 12%-16% |
TooLateToGoBack
06.28.13 | Didn't expect Progressive Rock to overtake Metalcore and Post-Hardcore. Also, lol at Misery Signals falling under "Prog Rock" |
Masochist
06.28.13 | Holy crap, things changed quick. Hip-Hop is my #2 now, since I'm guess the Prog Rock tag has been deleted on quite a few albums. But now my Alternative is even fucking bigger (37% instead of 33%), and Post Hardcore has been replaced with Indie Rock.
It'll be interesting to see how the pies change over the upcoming week(s) so as we all try and settle on genres. |
Masochist
06.28.13 | Yeah, what is IDM stand for? I just saw that Flying Lotus is tagged as such. |
auberginedreams
06.28.13 | i have prog in my pie chart and i think i've only rated like one prog album wtf. |
Deviant.
06.28.13 | Lol, who tagged Flylo as idm? |
Uranium
06.28.13 | sup bassline |
Deviant.
06.28.13 | Base, if you're going to be interesting you first have to be right |
Masochist
06.28.13 | Don't you know? La Dispute, Circle Takes The Square, and Gospel are all Prog Rock bands. How do you not see that? |
auberginedreams
06.28.13 | seriously like every metal album on the site is now tagged as prog rock. |
ViperAces
06.28.13 | but i thought idm really was a legit genre |
Deviant.
06.28.13 | It is |
Uranium
06.28.13 | Yo maso, where you at in the profile pic G? |
Deviant.
06.28.13 | Also, just looking through a few electronic artist pages. I think I might cry. The Chemical Brothers as breaks? Fat Boy Slim too? Aw man |
Uranium
06.28.13 | yo andcas, wow owls! is da best emo band evarrrr |
Masochist
06.28.13 | Uranium - That's a desert highway near Armagosa Valley on the CA/NV border. We were heading towards
Death Valley. |
Uranium
06.28.13 | Ahhhh! I thought that it looked familiar. That NV desert is where I reside. |
MuhNamesTyler
06.28.13 | I like my new pie chart, might actually rate more music now |
Deviant.
06.28.13 | Enter Shikari - drum & bass
Really guys? |
UnnamedOcean
06.28.13 | Progressive rock is my highest now.
Great. I don't even like a majority of "prog rock" bands. The older system was more accurate. |
Deviant.
06.28.13 | Yeah, they're not techno either |
NightProwler
06.28.13 | Alternative and Blues have increased greatly Rosk has fallen with 1 percent (29 now, lol) - metal has taken a slight fall as well. Prog is pretty much the same, Prog metal has arrived. |
Deviant.
06.28.13 | "they have techno parts"
Yeah, no |
Deviant.
06.28.13 | Do you know what techno is? |
Typhoner
06.28.13 | technical stuff |
anarchistfish
06.28.13 | Andcas tell dev how the new Falling in Reverse is dubstep |
Deviant.
06.28.13 | Wow man, you're like the TMZ AND EDM expert here |
anarchistfish
06.28.13 | But when I told him bmth gone with them smooth 2 step beats on their latest he's like nope |
JS19
06.28.13 | Meshuggah is under the prog ROCK bit of my chart. This is a mess |
PunchforPunch
06.28.13 | andcas lets tag MCR with skramz! |
bakkermaarten007
06.28.13 | "bakker, there are only 11 bands tagged as slowcore."
Yeah, I will work on that lol =)
And they removed the tag (for now???) !!!! My slowcore slice is gone and now I have a britpop slice, boring!
|
benkim
06.28.13 | Alternative takes up almost half of my pie now. Indie was 25% now it's just 7%! |
benkim
06.28.13 | Alternative 42%
Metal 14%
Progressive 13%
Progressive Metal 13%
Rock 7% (whatever this is)
Indie Rock 7%
Death Metal 6%
I am sure I listen to much more Indie than that but I like the other slices. I am sure most of the bands that I consider Indie fall into that huge alternative slice. |
Dodecahedron
06.28.13 | Apparently only 29% of what I listen to now is Black Metal, down from 44%. |
facupm
06.28.13 | i never jam blues and it just popped up there lol |
MuhNamesTyler
06.28.13 | What about Crabcore |
SucDePortocale
06.29.13 | I dont want to be an alternative guy :( |
thumbcrusher
06.29.13 | thrash is way down for me but it's probably more accurate |
YakNips
06.29.13 | Apparently I love prog rock |
Dodecahedron
06.30.13 | Somehow my BM slice keeps getting smaller |
VisionsFromTheDarkSide
06.30.13 | Folk on my chart has risen to 8% because of Opeth, Agalloch and Primordial wtf |
Lowder91bird
06.30.13 | I like the new one better. |
climactic
06.30.13 | i'd say my new one is a little more accurate, but those colors .__. |
Asdfp277
06.30.13 | New chart should be more accurate, yes. But apparently, I listen to prog now. |
Dodecahedron
06.30.13 | So do I, I've got 7% prog rock now and 14% folk. |
Inveigh
06.30.13 | it's pretty weird really... never thought I'd see psychedelic or post-rock on my pie chart. but considering that Rwake, Black Sabbath and Sleep are listed as psychedelic and Neurosis and Isis are listed as post-rock, I guess it kind of makes sense. |
Asdfp277
06.30.13 | Eh, Jom said it was intentional, to make users tag bands properly. |
Masochist
06.30.13 | One of the slices of my chart keeps changing--it was Post-Hardcore, then it was Indie Rock, and now it's Psychedelic. Also, Prog Metal has popped up. |
owen
06.30.13 | my post-hardcore, emo and ska are gone
alternative and rock are new to my chart |
thumbcrusher
06.30.13 | mine's changing all over the place at the moment |
Shuyin
06.30.13 | it sucks anus, now i got girly colors all over the place, like pink and yellow and shit |
owen
06.30.13 | I have 5% progressive rock, because of prog titans like touchรฉ amorรฉ |
Winsomniac
06.30.13 | I'm 24% emo, but that's probably cancelled out by 31% of "progressive rock," which is apparently what junz is. Also, some fucknut got my ratings wiped years ago so I stopped caring. |
JS19
06.30.13 | Right this moment it's perfect, but no doubt it'll change |
Keyblade
06.30.13 | i've got jazz now sweet. but most importantly black metal is back. my pie chart looked weird without the greatest subgenre |
Cygnatti
06.30.13 | I love my new new pie chart, it rulz. |
Masochist
06.30.13 | Well...now there's 8 slices (was only 7 at first). And Rock has reappeared for me.
I don't mind the colors so much, to tell the truth. Kind of bothers me that Alternative is such a huge chunk of my chart, even though I know that it's my own fault. I'm kinda jealous of yours Cygnatti. |
Artuma
06.30.13 | Alternative (20%)
Progressive Rock (19%)
Progressive Metal (14%)
Indie Rock (14%)
Death Metal (10%)
Psychedelic (8%)
Black Metal (7%)
Metal (7%)
the colors are kinda weird but i like how my pie chart looks like now. glad that they made it eight genres so black metal is there again |
thumbcrusher
06.30.13 | alternative is taking over the world |
Cygnatti
06.30.13 | post punk - 20%
pop - 16 %
hip-hop - 14 %
alternative - 11 %
classical - 11 %
prog rock - 11 %
funk - 11 %
punk - 8 %
yeah this is awesome, so glad alt and prog rock stepped down a notch. post punx is back to being my highest, which is awesome! hip-hop is still my 3rd highest for some reason and punk is kinda really low. but I still love it! |
EyesWideShut
06.30.13 | my pie chart changes like every 4 hours |
ZilbelPing
07.01.13 | Now I love my pie chart even more
Alternative 18%
Post Hardcore 16%
Metalcore 14%
Indie Rock 12%
Progressive Rock 11%
Progressive Metal 10%
Emo 9%
Hardcore 8%
That being said, my ratings are severely out of date and if I re-rated and included everything in my library, metalcore and post hardcore would be really low and Emo and Hardcore would be 2nd and 3rd, respectively. |
Mister Twister
07.01.13 | I have a slice of Rock, for a band called Rock. And I've never rated anything by any band named Rock. |
XfingTheSullen
07.11.13 | I love the new pie charts! I remember posting on the boards about a year or so asking whether one could get more than 6 slices, and now I've got 8.
Prev chart:
Death Metal: 45%
Metal: 36%
Black Metal: 6%
All Genres: 4%
Thrash: 4%
Electronica: 4%
New chart:
Death Metal: 34%
Progressive Metal: 20%
Metal: 16%
Progressive Rock: 7%
Metalcore: 7%
Melodic Death Metal: 6%
Industrial: 5%
Black Metal: 4%
I agree about some of the tags being way off, like calling Sybreed metalcore. Staff should really handle these tags better. Or just total haters/dumbasses should refrain from voting. RateYourMusic is a good place to take cues from, their tag system is amazing.
|
Masochist
07.11.13 | The fact that Melodic Death Metal is finally a genre makes me happy. |
XfingTheSullen
07.11.13 | Yeah, that one's a good thing. Funny how I've only got 6% of it, while there are at least like 10 melodeath bands in my first 20 most listened bands on last.fm.
BTW, is there a limit of slices now? It used to be 6, is it 8 now? |
Masochist
07.11.13 | It's 8. When I first made this list, there were seven, but it changed to 8 within a few hours, and that's where it stayed. |
ChuckyTruant
07.11.13 | Metalcore - 24%
Progressive Metal - 15%
Hardcore - 14%
Progressive Rock - 13%
Post-Hardcore - 11%
Death Metal - 11%
Alternative - 8%
Metal - 5%
Metalcore is down ~10%
Metal dropped ~15%
Everything is pretty much the same. We still need a Deathcore tag though |
ChuckyTruant
07.11.13 | Oh and yeah these pie chart are very quick to change it seems. My top 3 slices have been fluctuating quite a bit. |
treeqt.
07.11.13 | Electronic - 26% dropped by ~24%
Emo - 20% stayed same
Post-Hardcore - 13% about the same iirc
Post-Rock - 11% ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Psychedelic - 9% new
Ambient - 7% new
Hardcore - 7% idk
Dubstep - 6% new |
ChuckyTruant
07.11.13 | tree you so ghey |
Winsomniac
07.11.13 | Deathcore:
Literally just All Shall Perish, thanks. |
Mister Twister
07.11.13 | I have an Emo slice, which I thought was from Sunny Day Real Estate, but it's from the aptly named "Emo", which isn't actually a real band. |
treeqt.
07.11.13 | "tree you so ghey"
except I'm not wow boom LOL ^^ |
ChuckyTruant
07.11.13 | ๐๐9โฃ๐ป๐ฎ๐
dam :D |
XfingTheSullen
07.11.13 | I think the piechart should have 10 or 12 slices. That would be bad for intelligibility, though, I suppose O_O |
DrMaximus
07.11.13 | My pie used to have Electronic in it. Now I have no Electronic slice. Not happy about that. |
Chortles
07.11.13 | "I have an Emo slice, which I thought was from Sunny Day Real Estate, but it's from the aptly named "Emo", which isn't actually a real band."
you don't say |
Cygnatti
07.11.13 | ๐๐๐โ๐ฝ๐๐ฏ |
XfingTheSullen
07.11.13 | I also had 5% of Electronica before, now it's gone. The pie chart seriously shouldn't consider only the first eight slices and screw everything that follows. Oh yeah, and staff needs to approve more genres. Once again, I'm pointing at rateyourmusic |
facupm
07.12.13 | its gettin better, my chart |
Spec
07.12.13 | all that fucking alt rock damn |
