For example when i'm trying to relax I'll likely put on something like King Crimson or Blood Ceremony etc, or if i want to give myself energy i'll listen to the Laserdrome EP or some Napalm Death.
The point of the thread is really to discuss why we (aka you) listen to different types of music and what you get from the genres. Also you don't have to list every genre known to man, just the ones that are most important to you aka the soundtrack of your life.
Thrash: For me this is good vibe music, i usually get caught up in the rhythm of the song and before long i'm tapping my foot along and miming the choruses. It just gives me motivation, it's great for writing an essay to or doing something i generally dislike as i get over enthused by the music.
Doom: Dooms a funny one for me, it's quite a far reaching genre. Stuff like Reverend Bizarre fluctuates quite widely within an album even. But generally i'll put on the heavier doom stuff whilst either heavy thinking or hard drinking, and there is nothing quite like drifting into a doom coma after a few J's.
That being said there is obviously a much lighter side to doom, the majority of the Sabbath i listen to being a prime example. In this sense it is as previously mentioned chill music, something to stick on after work and ground myself.
There are quite a few more i could go into, but i just wanted to get the ball rolling. Here's betting this thread idea should have stayed in my head!
