I'm gonna throw my hat in the race for the darkhorse, Jazz. The shear complexity of some of the better Jazz just seems to put it on a level beyond the other genres. It's also such an all encompassing genre, ranging from fast to slow, loud to quiet, vocal to instrumental, big band to small arrangment, and that's not even including the infinite number of possible instrument arrangements. So yeah, Jazz, and Bill Evans "Everybody Digs Bill Evans" is the greatest CD ever.

That's an incredibly crap list. You missed out about 12 major genres.

I vote for...

Proto-Punk (IE: Velvet Underground)

Electronica (IE: Aphex Twin)

Blues Rock (IE: Yardbirds)

I'll have to say old school rock...Nothing can beat the best band in the world, KISS!

...you obviously live under a penis... or is it a rock? I mix the two up sometimes...

Anyways... Guns N' Roses > Kiss. Stone Temple Pilots > Kiss. Skid Row > Kiss. Your Mom, almost > Kiss.

Kiss wasn't very good...ever.

I don't know how you are able to say that, because KISS owns all, but only people i know that would agree with have seen KISS in concert. You really need to see KISS in concert to know how great they truely are.

For the record, KISS is PISS.

Like Squancho said, that list isn't very comprehensive, a lot of important genres were just skipped over. The best of kind of music is incredibly subjective anyway, and indicitive only of what style anyone is currently into. That said, I'm personally into a lot of punk/emo/screamo/hardcore right now.

I like KISS, I enjoy that shit, but there is not one reasonable arguement you could make to them "best band in the world". People often forget the difference between "favorite" and "best". I love the fucking Sex Pistols. Best band ever? I think not.

OH! Reckon I like lots of music, I can go from Billy Idol, to Slipknot, to Hank Williams Jr., to Staind, to Tori fucking Amos.

I like quality music, never really definded by a genre, and then sometimes I just like the stuff we all mark out for. Just because. Not a rap person, but other than that, we're good.

OR! An intelligent discussion on peoples' various opinions of music genre. You don't have to flame anyone to have a healthy debate. I see nothing wrong with the topic other than the slim list of choices on the poll.

But if the last "best music" type of topic serves as any indicator, it'll degrade into a fight, a flame war.

To be on topic though, personally, metal is the way to go (Y)

j00 r teh suck! evn handycapts no rap iz teh bom. [/my sister]

Anyways... I think that topics like this could be a whole lot of fun, provided that the assclowns stay away from them.

Personally, the only music that I don't like is Rap music, Opera, and that "Pop music" that wannabe female rappers (like Ashanti, ugh) sing... I mean, if I wanted to hear someone say "Yeah, Yeah" or "Ooh, Baby", I'd watch a porno, where at least I know the women are nekkid.

I used to be a traditional English skinny indie kid, having grown up on britpop. Now I'm a traditional English indie kid with a slight beer gut. The fact that my iPod contains eight Charlatans albums says it all.
