We Need A "What Genre Is This" Thread

rammetal7 · 06-18-2010, 02:45 PM

As the title says, we need a official thread in general music were we can ask what genre a artist belongs to, becuase I know some artist that I can not classify.

Like David Bowie, what genre is he in?

Urban Hat€monger ? · 06-18-2010, 02:46 PM

No we don't

rammetal7 · 06-18-2010, 02:47 PM

Then atleast tell me what sub genre David Bowie is in.

Be more constructive with your feedback, please.

EDIT: Thanks for telling me james1.

Glam Rock/Art Rock

The song I was tagging is "Fame", so Glam Rock/Art Rock sounds like the right genre.

I meant in General if I was counting every album it would be quite a long list.

I wish there was a website that states what subgenre an artist is, some come close to this idea, but the problem is that not all artists get a agreeable tag, like Sputnik Music, who just bluntly classified David Bowie as "Rock".

Why don't you just choose one you like & use that?

Some artists are harder to classify then others.
