I think most art (visual, aural, anything) has to reach you somehow on an emotional level. If I can look at a painting and say, yeah it's ok, then the artist has not reached me on that level, whereas if I look at it and feel something (even if that something is revulsion) then they have reached me. Same with music. If music doesn't touch me on some sort of emotional level, I usually don't tend to like it. Not saying every song has to, but in general, I prefer to be moved by music, or art.
Which of those arbitrary categories you've described above that puts me in I don't know.
