Best Bands ever of any genreMusic

[blu_man_blues]

Id like to see what can show up in here. I'm very interested in becoming a knowledgeable music man. Help me out if you can!!!!

 

[Jimmy Enslashay]

Heavy Metal - Slayer
Death Metal - Deicide currently for me, but best ever maybe Morbid Angel or Cannibal Corpse.

 

[Klostrophobic]

Heavy Metal - Tool
Death metal - Nile
Synth-Pop - Depeche Mode
Country - Junior Brown
Hard Rock - Led Zeppelin (is that a fair genre for them?)
Rock and Roll - Beatles

Joy Division is the best of their genre. Whatever you want to call it. I believe some newage douchebags call it Post-Punk. So that.

 

[Ev0]

I'd say that Led Zeppelin is more Blues-Rock than hard rock, although they are known for being able to work in many genres. But no matter what genre anyone wants to place them in, they are one of the greatest bands to ever play.

But as for Hard Rock, I'd say Van Halen is the best at that genre, although you're bound to get many different opinions for each genre.

 

[Klostrophobic]

Blues Rock? That's an actual genre? I thought Rock was just a transformation and evolution of Blues.

ARGH!!! I hate genre classification to the max.

 

[emad]

Blues Rock - Deep Purple
Rock - Joe Satriani
Metal - Symphony X
Rap - DMX
Trance - Cosmic Gate

 

[Klostrophobic]

Blues Rock again?! What is it? It sounds like some bogus, redundant genre.

 

[emad]

Arent genres in general pointless and redundant? My mp3 collection is broken into 4 categories and that's only because I've got like 500+ albums in there and it's hard to find specific stuff without decently sorting it out.

Hip-hop/R&B/Hip-hop related stuff, Rock/Rock related music, Trance/trance-like music, and Jazz/Chillout/Classical/Slow Stuff

Best Bands ever of any genre?

THE BEATLES.



ps: or maybe the original Guns´n´Roses?

 

[Event]

Rock- Linkin Park
Rap- Beastie Boys
Pop- None. Pop sucks.

Pop- None. Pop sucks.

From this thread:
https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=44944

Is Good Charolette considered Pop? I heard some consider them pop, but I don't. How does one classify "pop." What makes a band a "Pop" band?

Am I the only one who likes a few Good Charolette songs?

Everyone likes a little pop, it's everywhere.

 

[Shannon]

Metal - Black Sabbath
Pyschedelic Rock - Pink Floyd
Progressive Metal - Tool
Industrial - Nine Inch Nails
Nu-Metal - Deftones
Death Metal - In Flames
Hard Rock - Soil

I'm sure Led Zeppelin fits in here somewhere, but I don't know what to categorize them under...

Metal - Symphony X

Symphony X are Power Metal. All those symphonic metal like Symphony X, Stratovarius, etc are power metal.

 

[blu_man_blues]

I was really hooked on rage against the machine for a while a long time after they broke up so I really dont know anything bout them. I heard somewhere that they might have been fake and that they didnt really support wat they wrote. Is this true? Id like to know
thanx

ARGH!!! I hate genre classification to the max.

Video Game music - Daiki Kasho, Hitoshi Sakimoto or Nobuo Uematsu

[Shannon]

Rammstein are industrial. Hell, one of their DVDs is entitled "Industrial Angels"...

 

[Jimmy Enslashay]

Theres too many genres, I propose sorting them into this:

Pop:
Love Music:
Rap:
R'n'B:
Country:
Classical:
Punk:
Metal:
Rock:
Rock'n'Roll:
Blues:
Jazz:
Ethnic:
Techno/Trance/etc:
Pop Rock:

Copy that and put some bands/singers into those categories.

Of course there are heaps of genres. Most of them are derived from people who don't know what to classify a band as, so they make up some crazy genre...

 

[Jimmy Enslashay]

Exactly....like Nu Metal.

 

[gtavcfan]

Heavy Metal - Slayer
Death Metal - Deicide currently for me, but best ever maybe Morbid Angel or Cannibal Corpse.

I agree with Jimmy Enslashay with Slayer as the best in Heavy Metal, the others would be (Butthead: He said wood)

Pop: Michael Jackson
Love Music: Cutting Crew
Rap: Tupac (Not my favorite, is the only rap band I know of, since my brother listens to him)
R'n'B: ?
Country: ?
Classical: ?
Punk: Rancid
Metal: Slayer
Rock: Motley Crue
Rock'n'Roll: Elvis Presley
Blues: ?
Jazz: Xavier Cugat
Ethnic: ?
Techno/Trance/etc: ?
Pop Rock: Gary Numan(?) (NOt sure what Pop Rock is)

The ones with: ? means I don't know what the genre is.

 

[donbenni]

Funk Rock - Red Hot Chili Peppers [my fav band]
Alternative Pop Rock - Ben Folds (Five)
Acid Jazz Funk Pop Dance - Jamiroquai
Celtic Alternative Rock - Cranberries
Jazz Funk - Tower Of Power
Comedy Alternative Rock - Tenacious D, Shirehorses [too close]
Rap Metal - Linkin Park
Break Beat - 4 Hero [top group, check it out]
Urban Crossover - Beverley Knight
Pop Punk - Green Day

But you can go on all day, because at the end of the day each band has it's own genre. The only genre that you really can pigeon hole is pop, because so much of it gets churned out.

Threads like this make me laugh - It seems that most members hate on rap, hip-hop, RnB etc anyway

I cant believe no-one has mentioned Jay-z, he (or Nas?) is probably the best rap artist ever ! Came from absolutely nothing and now has everything he could ever want or wish for, because of hard work and dedication.

So in reply to the thread - Jay-Z is my best Rap artist ever.
