Dntel - Rock My Boat hmmm there's a lot of things this could be classified as easy listening, electronic, modern folk, i'll let you choose

Boduf Songs - Quiet When Group neofolk, because it's dark, creepy and beautiful

All added except for the first song you suggested SB. Don't know what to classify it as. I'm sure the Alternative Rock tag will be snatched up quite quick (and as cliche a choice it might be, I'd personally like to see Smells Like Teen Spirit occupy that spot, but I won't claim it).

I'll be taking the Grunge category, however, with this timeless classic.

So um... what happens when folks have disagreements about whether a song should represent a sub-genre?
Doesn't seem like this should be strictly a first-come-first-serve thing, considering what it is.

To quote article A, section B.

This can be applied if you feel a song is a poor representation of the genre too. This shouldn't be abused however, and just because you aren't fond of a particular song doesn't give you grounds to challenge it. It's a rather large project, so I'm afraid voting on everything or getting people to back you up on every submission would just take too much time.

Just the rule I made up, if anyone has better ideas feel free to tell me.

I think I'll need my lawyer.

Good choice/done.

Afrobeat: Fela Kuti - Expensive Shit


This is really wonderful stuff. Just discovered this guy today during my research of Afrobeat music. Seems to combine a lot of my favorite elements of Ghana Highlife, jazz, and funk together.

Violent & Funky 09-23-2010 08:01 PM

Noise pop:

'Radical Businessman' by Japanther



Indie rock:

'Teen Age Riot' by Sonic Youth



Desert rock:

'Green Machine' by Kyuss



Funk metal:

'Violent & Funky' by Infectious Grooves (duh)



Progressive metal:

'Schism' by Tool



Pop punk:

'Dammit' by blink 182



Primus: (they get their own genre)

'Tommy the Cat' by Primus



I'd also like to submit that folk punk be a genre:

'Tanks! Tanks! Tanks!' by Defiance, Ohio
