YOU ARE WRONG

[MotleyPriest111]

What about Arena Rock, Hair Metal, Glam Metal, Pop Metal, Power Metal, New Wave British Metal, Shock Rock, Early Punk Rock?

[Julio-Claudius]

MUSE IS NOT EMO.

Classic rock all the way.

The board only allows 10 poll options.

This list is completely wrong. System of a Down, Korn, and Manson (who you said were hard rock) are nu-metal.

Metallica is not heavy metal, they are thrash metal, if you want to be specific.

Blink 182 is NOT punk. Punk would be The Ramones, Iggy Pop and the Stooges, and the Clash.

How about Prog Rock instead of five minor variations of Metal?

[LavatoryLoveMachine]

Putting death and speed metal as the same thing is ******ed.

You should have just put Metal. Not answering this poll because of that flaw.

Minor variations? Are you ****ing crazy?

[Rev0lver]

make an "other" section. i want Mathcore.

[the_polite_force]

wow i thought the guy who labelled the darkness as psych rock had problems with his genres.........

[johnyringo04]

sorry i failed you guys with the genres. maybe someone can give me a little info on the genres and what they mean and what bands follow that standard. someone with more knowledge may start a new poll. but can someone tell me what deftones would be under in a very specific way. their newer stuff has to be almost an ambient rock.

[KingColon]

Other - Funk Rock.

You get righteous guitar (and sometimes vocals) to mosh and bang your head to, and you get the fancy-good rhythmic tones of the bass and drums to dance to. It's the complete package, man.

ambient metal maybe? it is tough to place them.

[LavatoryLoveMachine]

Id place in waste of organic matter (man, Ive been saying that too much)

[MrGrieves]
