Mostly Irish folk (with a healthy infusion of Irish rebel music mixed in)

Ambient, electronica, Post punk, emo and goth stuff, synthwave, sludge / stoner metal, industrial, and folk music.

My favorites over the years were

• Chemical Brothers
• Underworld
• The Presets
• Aphex Twin
• Brian Eno
• Boards of Canada
• Ministry
• Nine Inch Nails (but boy did he jump the shark hard)
• Skinny Puppy / oHGr / Download / Phil Western
• Einstürzende Neubauten
• The Cure
• Killing Joke
• Neil Young

I don't know why, but I also gravitate to girl guitar bands. Especially if they sing in harmony. Instant goosebumps!

it changes all the time but right now-

Most flavours of metal, hard rock, punk, some blues stuff like SRV and Gary Moore. Basically, if it has loud guitars in it, I'm there.

Everything except jazz (because I can't find the rhythm, which is the point I guess).

Lots of classic rock. Billy Joel, led zeppelin, etc.

But lately I've been on a classical music kick.

I'm pretty big on americana lately. Lots of good bands to discover. I'm also getting back into ska.

I mostly listen to varieties of British music (shoutout !britishmusic@lemmy.world)

I love R&B. I've been exploring British country music lately (surprisingly is a lot of it).

Massive fan of grime music (!grime@lemmy.world) (similarish to hip hop but with electronic beats) and its predecessor, UK garage (summery dance music vibes). UK rap in general is a big thing for me. I listen to drill music on occasion but not super often (modern gangster rap basically, although there's a lot of commercial drill nowadays). Been really into jersey club music lately - I think the beats are really cool.

I have some fondness for dancehall (!dancehall@lemmy.world) and afrobeats music as well.

Other than that, I enjoy (but don't listen to actively) baile funk, some varieties of house music, deep/original dubstep music (not the screechy dubstep most people think of), reggae, lofi-hiphop, the underground NY hip hop scene

Heavy Metal. Most things with screaming/growling that has actual lyrics are gold to me. Ice Nine Kills manages to blend that with my love of the horror genre, and discovering them felt like finding a new home.

i listen to everything, but my favorite artists are That Handsome Devil, Frank Zappa, Death Grips, blink-182, Björk, Tom Waits, Prince

my favorite album right now is Steve McQueen by Prefab Sprout

The band Sleep Token has been a majority of my played music for over a month now, and I don't see that changing anytime soon. I mostly listen to stuff like Metalcore, Deathcore, Djent, Nu Metal, Prog, Instrumental, I love metal covers of pop songs. Also like hard dance, dubstep, DnB, some pop, some rap, most anything as long as it isn't tasteless.
