According to this article, your music taste reflects your personality.

Indie fans sound like they should just give up all hope, lol. My favorite line in the article:


For the record, my favorite style is Blues.

Alternative Rock - Three Days Grace, Korn, Linkin Park, et al

I also like Pop...Pink, Kelly Clarkson, Christina Aguleria

and some country - LeAnn Rimes, Martina McBride, Sugarland

it really depends on my mood but what I listen to most is Alt Rock...

I thought that was the indie one.

"Alternative" is subjective.

Some think The Police, Red Hot Chili Peppers, U2 and REM, etc. are "alternative" (to me they are mainstream)

I say bands like X, Sugar, The Replacements, The Meat Puppets, Black Flag and such are "alternative." ( and I love them all)

But that's just MY take on it.

Alternative would fall under rock, no?

I don't know, I guess alternative would fall under either Rock or Indie, just depends on the band.

Trying to decide which music gere I like more is like asking a parent which child they love more, isn't it?

Depends on the situation.

Favorite rock - The Who, Bob Dylan, and all the other REALLY great artists that came from the 60's and 70's. Fleetwood Mac is an AWESOME band.

Alternative - The Clash, Big Audio (I and II), Aztec Camera (Good Morning Britain is one of my favorites), Sex Pistols, Refreshments (gotta listen to Banditos sometime, it reminds me of some people on this board "everybody knows, that the world is full of stupid people, so meet me in the mission at midnight, we'll divvy up there. Everybody knows, that the world is full of stupid people, well I've got the pistol, so I'll keep the pesos, yeah and that seems fair).

Classical - Gotta be in the mood, but all the greats like Tchakowski, Bach, Beethoven.

Country? Not really. However, there are some really good songs out there like If You're Going Through Hell.

I also like Chumbawumba quite well too. Matter of fact, when I was overseas, I got a copy of "Tubthumper" that you just simply cannot get here in the States. Some of the stuff that they wrote in the book included was WAY wild.

Electronica? Not so much.

Those bands are in no way whatsoever alternative. Alternative is bands such as Radiohead, Modest Mouse, Sonic Youth. Bands that don't sound so mainstream. All three of those bands are about as mainstream as you get.

Favorite Genre- Classic Rock, but I prefer blue's based classic rock- Zeppelin, Cream, Hendrix, 10 years after, and so on.

Overall, I enjoy all kinds of music, but I sorta dislike mainstream music such as rap, pop, country and crappy modern rock. There is some good modern mainstream music- The Killers, Brad Paisley, can't think of anymore off the top of my head.

Some good music you've probably never heard of - Death From Above 1979, The Mars Volta, My Morning Jacket, Tapes 'n Tapes, and Wolfmother check em out if you got time.
