Suggestion[Genre]

Hyperbolic Hampster · 10-25-2010, 08:09 AM

I have seen that all the new posts for the new releases only include the Album Name & Artist, I think it would be helpful to include the genre of the album/artist in the title.

Yes or no?

Could be helpful, but members are too lazy.

I deliberately left off genre when I was planning that forum for the simple reason most of the time it's down to personal interpretation and usually nobody can agree on it.

All you need is the name of the band and the album titles, what's on the album is up for debate inside the thread.

examples of bands or musicians in which genres are a little uneven:

Sufjan Stevens: Pop, Folk, Electronica, Christian, Freak Folk,
Vampire Weekend: Indie Rock, Island, Classical, Afro-Pop,
CocoRosie: Folk, Pop, Indie, Freak Folk, Rap, Hip-Hop, Opera, Electronic

there are hundreds maybe thousands of genre-crossing bands and artists
