I like a lot of alternative rock like melvins , shellac , big black , jesus lizard
I like a lot of American punk and hard-core like minor threat , fugazi
I like a lot of disco and funk like chic , pointer sisters , Donna summer
I like a lot of hip hop metal like cypress hill when they worked with biohazard , anthrax when they worked with public enemy , bringing working class white and black music together , urban dance squad
Every musical genre has its good stuff
Even some garage I can listen to
Not a big fan of jazz or classical though
I put duran duran as a pop band and I thought they were crap but I dont think pop is all crap as a genre
Hope that explains it
I like (some) metal. I'm referring specifically to Rap Metal.

Septic-rulers albums chaos ad and roots might have had noble intentions about the destruction of the Brazilian tribes in their home country. but they sounded awful to me. Just plain awful.
Reign In Blood was slayers last speed or thrash album
I am not into wanky speed metal
Despite this it contained the classic riffs of raining blood and the horrific lyrics of angel of death about nazi death camp experiments on the Jews, disabled and mentally ill by Dr mengele and his evil henchmen .......a lot of metal bands have very deep , anti racist , anti right wing lyrics
Roots has songs on it by Brazilian drummers from threatened tribes in the rainforest , amazing dark sounds , primative , backed by simple slow riffing
Can't see duran duran writing songs about nazi war criminals or heading into the disappearing amazon rainforest to meet tribes that have never seen people before , befriending them and recording their never before heard music and bringing them out of their vanishing habitat to record music with white people from a big place , leading to local campaigns to save the native indians
And they say heavy metal is all about tits , shagging , screaming and satan
