Best type of music ever invented.

ahem as in the sense of being totally serious music genres are not *invented* it is fromed and molded, and derived from other types of music that had been derived from the music before that. the ony time music was *invented* was when the cave men beat a stone aginst another
 
There's so many great genres (read: subgenres) out there that it's pretty moronic to pick just one as "the greatest" but here's a couple of my favorites for the last two or so years:

Post-Punk
Avant-Jazz
Noise Rock
Math Rock
Alternative Rock (read: 80-90's indie rock ala Husker Du, not post-grunge)
Punk RAWK!
Kraut Rock
Blues Rock
and... prog... which I'm going to use as a broad term to describe everything from Frank Zappa to Captain Beefheart to Mr. Bungle to King Crimson.
 
Hmm, pretty hard to say....

I mean, everyone must have heard at least one good song from most genres.

But looking at how many songs I like, the majority of them fall into three genres:

Rock, Pop, & Dance.
 
Yes. Whoever the purveyors of genre-naming are, they really ballsed it up when they named Indie. Somebody should have come up with a different name early on and avoided all the arabiguity.

WE NAMED THE DOG INDIE
 
I think when most people say indie they're usually talking about indie rock and indie pop, but I don't really care enough to get into that argument.
 
Well...I still think this thread is just a excuse for favortism, we already know everyone is going to say rock is the best...Its all a matter of opinion...If someones favorite genre is say Techno then why try to tell them they are wrong?
