i recognise the difference between the bands, sub gernres and all that sh*t, but honestly? i don't care.

i don't like the genre that much to care too much about it.

Gospel Blues: Blind Willie Johnson
Surf Rock: Dick Dale & His Del-Tones
Surf Pop: Le Roxy Pro
Punk Rock: Discount
Folk Punk: The Mountain Goats
Celtic Punk: Flogging Molly
Doom Metal: Electric Wizard
Baroque'n'Roll: Codeine Velvet Club
Indie Rock: The Fratellis
Alt Rock: The White Stripes
Psychedelic Rock: Troubadour Dali
Swing: The Atomic Fireballs
Folk: The Dubliners
Hard Rock: Paul Gilbert
Country: Marty Robbins
Jazz: Django Reinhardt
Hip Hop: Biz Markie
Avant-Garde/Experimental: The Residents
Ska: Madness
Ska Punk: The Holophonics
Classical Indian: Smt. Rajeswari Pariti
Kwela: Spokes Mashiyane
Rockabilly (Revival): Top Cats
Rockabilly: Buddy Holly
Dark Cabaret: Voltaire (or as he goes now Aurelio Voltaire)
Traditional Cossack: Vladimir Skuntsev

I think that's everything. Sorry if I went a bit overboard with subgenres.
