What about if someone said that they liked dub music, say, but that it had, in their opinion, mutated into drum and bass quite recently? Would that be an acceptable opinion to hold
There is no need to be invoking dairy products here. This thread has been peaceful up to now.

Essential additions to the yes list
1. Bands from Chapel Hill, North Carolina 1991-95 including Ben Fold Fives cos they have the best band name ever
2. Anything that falls under New Weird American - Jeffrey Lewis, daniel Johnson, Castanets, Devandra Banhardt (I suppose)

I always notionally filed them under Americana but they can gladly have a free transfer to NWA as they are weird and American and pretty new

Can I just say that I absolutely loathe the term Americana?
You forgot Trance and Funky House
Yeh, the 2nd list needs more in it.

Yeah always was a bit of an albatross and a bandwagon for shithead artists to jump on. I used to write for No Depression and we'd always use the expression "alt.country (whatever that is)" which kind of took the piss out of the supposed scene.
NWA is a much finer term.

on the 'good' list:
in the 'bad' list:
other than that, it's mostly been covered...
- detroit techno (UR, juan atkins etc)
- 'proper' electro (jonzun crew through to dopplereffekt - not including what 'the kids' seem to think is electro, oh no)
- indie metal (high on fire, mastodon, isis and the like)
- bluegrass (somewhat different to 'alt.' country, no?)
- dancehall (even the stuff with the homophobic lyrics. we just pretend we didn't hear those bits)
in the 'bad' list:
- dadhouse (all dance music aimed at dinner parties & older coke heads - essentially 'deep' house and 'tech' house, and quite a bit of that serious new york shit)
- EBM (in fact, pretty much anything which passes for industrial music since the rise of nine inch nails)
other than that, it's mostly been covered...

2nd list I suspect, although I quite liked Pablo Honey.

There won't be one now we all know 'the truth'.
I'm obviously not going to put it in the music forum

the latter, especially if they are Brazilian
i don't mind a bit of deep house and i used to listen to a lot of nuphonic-type stuff too, but i'm not gonna kick up a fuss and defend it, because it can be *very* dull and insipid.
you're a fucking newbie anyway - as if we'd pay any attention to an objection from you...

What about 90's american punk, that it became uncool to like, and it is now becoming cool to like again? See: NOFX, The Bloodhound Gang.
