Yep, you read that right...
I was just reading an article on the Tooth and Nail boxed set and they listed all the styles of music therein. I thought it'd be interesting to see how many genres/styles and subgenres we could list here. To sort of create an exhaustive list of musical styles.
I'll start, using the T&N article:
Ska
Thrash Metal
Pop
Alternative
Shoegazer
Pop-Punk
Hardcore
Grunge
Seattle Grunge
Jazz
Lounge-Lizard Jazz
Eurodisco
Rock
alright, start adding to the list.... how many genres can you think of ?
