Ok, so I suck at defining genres...I was just looking at iTunes and some of the songs have genres put on the songs, like KH is called "alternative & punk" for American Jet Set, and "Rock" for The Curse (and no genre for FN&E). Hot Hot Heat's song Bandages, is labeled as "blues" as are: converge, Hidden In Plainview, The Matches and Something Corporate. WTF? haha. It's kinda weird some of the crazy genres (some of which were picked by iTunes when i imported the cd's and some are from like the file i downloaded). JamisonParker is classified as "punk", dresden dolls as "pop", fiona apple as "jazz+funk" Only one of my bright eyes songs (out of about 30) is listed as emo, one as lo fi...and bunch of other labels. So basically what kind of crazy genre listings do you have for some of your songs in iTunes? anything weird? Also, just describe genres, if you think your have a good grasp on a genre that is commonly misrepresented. Talk anything about genre's.

the F.A song is from Tidal hehe. I have only heard one song on WHen The Pawn, so i don't really know what that ones like. and i thought the HHH being blues was soooo funny that's why i started this thread. no other reason, really. hehehehe.

I love when bands are labeled as "punk/rock/screamo/post-hardcore/metal/indie"
I have my own genre system. Blood Brothers are labeled as "Kung Pow" Dresden Dolls are "Mime" The Faint is "Sexy Sounds" Kill Hannah is "HolyFuckingCute"
I tend to make things easier that the genre-defining world would prefer.

how do they figure Something Corporate as blues? Is it because there is a piano?
Did you know the lead singer of that band has Lung Cancer or something like that?

Just thought I'd say it in case people are not up on news....
I am sad too, I want him to get better, soon. Maybe I should take my medical knowledge and go help him get better.
