I used to be one or some or all of these.
But some time in the 2010s, or rather over the course of the last 10-15 years, i stopped listening to music by genre and started listening to music by what made me feel good. Like, my phone is filled with music from so many different genres now i can't really call myself anything in terms of music subculture. I'm a music "generalist"? I listen to anything that sounds good to me and don't cut myself off from any genre just because it is said genre.
Except pop.
fuck pop.

Why though!?
Because 4/4 = 1

Nothing is more metal than respecting the right to self-determination and the fun of others.
Don't be close-minded. Enjoy what you enjoy, don't be a snob, let other people have fun and stop thinking about categories. -
I'm the gatekeeper, but I only listen to death, grind and doom. Everything else is more or less bullshit. Especially melodeath.
That doesn't seem fun at all. I listen to what I like, independent of genre and just respect people that have different tastes than me. Except gatekeepers, get outta here with that snobby attitude.

Isn't that just the "default" rhythm for most music?
But what's appealing about it? What's to like!?
-
Uhh no idea where I fit here; Amon Amarth, Devildriver, Machine Head, Fear Factory..Metallica (Black and prior), Megadeth, NIN, and Tool / APC - and so much more.
I think I'm mostly "It's all good if it's angry and loud" but I do run across bands and genres on occasion that I just can't get into.
You are a 1999 Metal Hammer magazine.

predictability

It's just easy and intuitive. It's a steady beat, and then you halve the intervals and halve those again.
Triplets are also quite common.

So being boring?

wrote last edited by [email protected]I kinda feel this. Some years ago I was a diehard Hardcore (Techno) and Uptempo enjoyer and would not listen to anything else. Then about one year ago I kinda stopped caring and now I listen to a whole bunch of stuff (but still mainly Techno) except pop. Pop is absolutely lame in my opinion. It has nothing that makes a single song stand out from any other. No kicks, no drops, no provocation. It only cares about being liked by the masses.

Well, 4/4 is definitely the easiest to dance to. It's also the easiest to ignore in lieu of whatever else is going on musically. It appeals to the lowest common denominator. Not that 4/4 has to be boring or predictable.

So its there because its barely music, and in the western nusical tradition it's very popular. Cool. Love that. Why would i listen to anuthibg else.

wrote last edited by [email protected]I think its fair to say i have a favourite genre, or multiple favourites, but that is no longer exclusive or exclusionary. All music is welcome, i will no longer judge a song by its genre.
I attribute the change to having different social groups in my life. When i was in school i was into rock and thwn metal and that was pretty much the only thing i liked. Later i got in with a crowd that was more into techno, dnb, dubstep, house, minimal etc and grew to appreciate it, and love it, around the same time i was playing in bands and learning the blues, and got into jazz more recently. Always liked classical because of my piano lessons when i was young. It opened my mind up to so much more.
