The simple answer is no, it isn't. Academic studies regarding this exact subject have been performed and peer reviewed adequately enough to form a basis of evidence.

The only consistent cross-cultural reaction to music is that slow music and fast music provoke calm and agitated reactions respectively. There has been absolutely no evidence uncovered of any kind that other styles of music evoke similar feeligns on a broadly cross-cultural level.

And to be honest, we can end the thread here. I'm sure you'll all want to discuss it further, but the fact is, people with far more money, time, resources, and experience than any of us have successfully proven this theory to be incorrect.
