10.20.10 | albums are the ones that got me into their respective genres, in order.
note, today i prefer oceanic to panopticon. js. i also realize that the audience to which this list is
addressed is a little different than, say, most people on facebook in that you guys are probably
slightly more open minded and also tend to like metal more in general |
FearThyEvil
10.20.10 | Country music is the worst genre ever.
Agreed. |
BallsToTheWall
10.20.10 | Everybody always says they listen to everything. It's at that point where i bust out ritual dark ambient drone. |
HawksIsNotAFag
10.20.10 | Country and Rap music is the worst genres ever.
With selective exceptions.

10.20.10 | I wipe my ass with Toby Keith album cover inserts. After I eat burritos. |
East Hastings
10.20.10 | Enough with your burritos shit, man.
I think country occasionally offers good qualities as a genre but has been so oversaturated with money-making crap that it's become exactly like popular hip-hop and I don't want to get into it. |
Jakeitwasaghost
10.20.10 | Enough with the seriousness, man. Just eat a burrito and chill. It's all good. |
robertsona
10.20.10 | anything in particular you like, east hastings? glad to see someone hasn't shut out the genre completely :P |
East Hastings
10.20.10 | I love you Jake.
And robertsona, not specifically, but (cliche) Johnny Cash has some interesting stuff and I like a lot of country-influenced rock and metal, and I love a lot of country-flavored folk. |
robertsona
10.20.10 | johnny cash is good, i think a lot of people who "hate country" like some of his stuff but sort of
don't really consider him country. i think a lot of people associate country with the dumb radio-
saturated shit you mentioned, the I'M A COWBOY WITH MY SIX-STRING BOOTS or whatever. much like many
people detest hip hop because of soulja boy and his peers.
to all people who don't like country music, what do you think of this song?

give it a listen if you have a chance. |
Jakeitwasaghost
10.20.10 | I love you too big guy. |
SpottedTrout
10.20.10 | I really love me some Willie Nelson. |
East Hastings
10.20.10 | Robertsona that's some good shit. I love the music. Vocals (and within country in general) are sort of hit-and-miss, but the music is fantastic |
qwe3
10.20.10 | the only country that's really grabbed me has been johnny cash. granted, i've never really explored the genre |
robertsona
10.20.10 | i think the reason i like that song so much is that its beginning is so appealing to me and so far removed from my image of "country music" that the second, more recognizably "country" part is easier to swallow. all of it's awesome though. |
deathofasalesman
10.20.10 | Honky tonk sucks. Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson rock balls. |
Jebull
10.20.10 | I've noticed lately that I can no longer list any single genre.. I love something from basically every
genre. Go me! Although I do like significantly less Rap or Country.. But I live in the south so hey, it
happens.. ha Oh and I believe robertsana hit the nail on the head exactly. |
East Hastings
10.20.10 | robertsona: Agreed. I've been listening to some Kris Kristofferson lately too, his lyrics are pretty insightful and his voice is too old to have that annoying radio twang, it's nice |
taroo
10.20.10 | I like pretty much ever style of music, for the most part. Everything has good stuff and bad stuff in it, or... for the most part, there are few excetions.
I've been listening to metal since forever
Johnny Cash got me into country
and Wu-Tang got me into rap. |
Awesomesauce
10.20.10 | I saw the title of this list and immediately thought: Kid Rock.
Is it beer o'clock yet? |
kangaroopoo
10.20.10 | can't get into much rap 'cept a bit of public enemy, nwa
very little country, like folk/country group Nickel Creek |
trailofdead91
10.20.10 | Enough with your burritos shit, man.
I lol'd hard. But yeah I don't like most country. Johnny Cash and Ryan Adams are great though. I like a lot of metal but I hate the demonic voice. I like old school rap and Eminem. |
CrazyPlane
10.20.10 | So many people say they listen to "everything." I like Johnny Cash but have never tried to get into country beyond that. |
Shadein
10.20.10 | I try to like country and rap, but i hate whatever country shit is on the radio and i like a little rap, but not a whole lot. I want to like at least something from both genres to show me that they aren't complete shit. |
McCopper
10.20.10 | Stop hating country because you never listened to great musicians like Johnny Cash and Waylon Jennings. |
fr33convict
10.20.10 | Country - has good artists but as a whole is very lol
Rap - see above.
Mehtuhlz - fuk yeh |
Spec
10.20.10 | It's all good. Mainstream country and mainstream rap is shit though. You gotta search for the good stuff. |
BigHans
10.20.10 | all 3 rule |
Jesuslaves
10.20.10 | about 90% of rap sucks, about 99% of cuntry sucks |
Jesuslaves
10.20.10 | and the people who write that are usually the foo fighters/linkin part fags |
eternium
10.20.10 | Only country I like is the classics like Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, and David Allan Coe. I don't listen to any rap from the last decade. |
Emim
10.20.10 | Um, my mom was big into Country (though I hated it), but I like some Toby Keith, Garth Brooks, Alan Jackson, Carrie Underwood (hell yeah), and of course Johnny Cash. Southern rock >>>> Country
There wasn't really an album that got me into rap. I mostly just listened to the radio crap. P.O.S. - Never Better was my first serious venture into rap.
As for metal, I had a bit of Nu-Metal, but the main album was August Burns Red - Messengers. |
DoubtGin
10.20.10 | does alt-country count too? because I think its one great genre alongside southern rock..
I agree that country only has few selective good artists, like Cash, Prine and Townes Van Zandt
not listening to alot of rap but I really enjoy the classics and most of the alternative hip hop stuff
dont listen to any extreme metal (lolbm); I'm usually looking for more experimental stuff |
pand3m0nium
10.20.10 | I pretty much listen to anything, but there are select artists in those genres that piss me off. But I don't judge an entire genre based on a few bad artists. |
patroneyes
10.20.10 | i love hip-hop, metal is challenging - i enjoy some, i dislike some
country is terrible imo |
DeafMetal
10.21.10 | Lol at people who say they listen to everything and what they mean is rap and country.
Seriously though, Kris Kristofferson is awesome country. Check him out. |
robertsona
10.21.10 | "Lol at people who say they listen to everything and what they mean is rap and country." what? |
SCREAM!
10.21.10 | i was in a somewhat annoyed mood the other day and someone told me they liked everything so i sent them a panopticon song and they were like...youre right i dont like everything |
Shadein
10.21.10 | i think DeafMetal is referring to regular people, not Sputnik people |
SteelErectedb4you8er
10.21.10 | People who say they hate country must think that today's country is country. It is not, that is pop. Old school country from Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, George Jones, Hank Williams Sr. is some of the most real, honest music that you will ever hear in your life. Trust me, put back a bottle of whiskey and put on an old record by one of these guys, you will be changed. Hip hop is the shit, today's rap music isn't what rap used to be about. Old rap came with a message. |
merriweather
10.21.10 | alt-country ftw |
iisblackstar
10.21.10 | love hip-hop.. very limited metal and barely any country |
DeafMetal
10.21.10 | I was talking about regular people. At least the people in Pittsburgh. |
Shadein
10.21.10 | I have friends at school who are like that too and say they like everything, this one friend of mine says he likes everything but he doesn't like "screamo" and rap. He likes country and "rave music" |
qwe3
10.21.10 | "about 90% of rap sucks, about 99% of cuntry sucks"
about 90 percent of every genre sucks you retard |
Ire
10.21.10 | Country is just like any other genre. The surface is mostly shit but there quite a few classics in the genre. |
MUNGOLOID
10.21.10 | i've pretty much always liked rap but when i was younger, i was more into the pop top 40 Ja Rule bullshit and much more pop R & B. 1 really was the album that made me realize that music was more than just a form of entertainment. |
Jesuslaves
10.21.10 | "about 90 percent of every genre sucks you retard"
no. retard.
"Country is just like any other genre. The surface is mostly shit but there quite a few classics in the genre."
nah the only reason i put 99% is because i'm sure there's at least one thing in there that's not completely ungodly bad but i'm not holding my breath. |

Yes.

DiceMan
10.22.10 | Actualy, people usually just simplify metal by saying "Screamo" cause they're too fucking ignorant to know the difference. |
