I don't actually know what genre they are, but Glass Animals are my favorite band.
They've got a sound that's almost near TV on the Radio, but slowed down and.. on acid or something lol.
I enjoy rock n roll, jazz, blues.. bluegrass can be fun.
The 70's made some pretty fuckin great sounds. Hendrix and Joplin, etc.
Music does cheer me up, despite opinions.. it gets me moving and out of my shitty element. I appreciate melodic noise more than most things.
Love 70s music!
I love music and almost all kinds of music. I hate that my depression has made me apathetic in recent years about so much, including music -- although I go through periods where I'm more interested in it again and lately I've been in that headspace.
So the genres I enjoy most are :
80s pop/rock/anything
alternative like The Smiths/Morrissey, Smashing Pumpkins, REM, Beck, White Stripes, etc
funk
Motown!
classical, particularly Mozart, he's my favorite
folk rock, like Simon & Garfunkel, Cat Stevens, Suzanne Vega,
a mishmash of other stuff including Enya, Weird Al, I even have some albums of Gregorian chants. lol
Lately I discovered Lizzo and have really been enjoying her
When I feel super depressed, classic Country/Western (like from the 50s through the early 80s) both soothes me because I do love it, but it also makes me feel worse because I have so many childhood memories attached to that music because it's what I heard all the time at home when I was a kid.
