What music do southerners listen to?
What music do southerners listen to?
THE BEST MUSIC
depends on what part of the south youre in
i guess the answer you were looking for was kinda bland/generic outlaw country and classic rock
Johnny Rebel
Hatestomp, Pantera the list goes on
Blur
Neutral Milk Hotel
OH COUNTRY ROOOOOAD
TAKE ME HOOOOME
TO THE PLAAAAACE
WHERE I BELOOOOONG
post-country
everything except rap and country
Blues, rock, jazz. We are ground zero for modern music. Music would be nothing without the musical contributions of the South.
uh huh yeah
Vacation in Athens is calling me
Blues from Mississippi, dixieland jazz from Louisiana. Both of which evolved and formed the basis for music today. From chords based on fours, AABA and 12 bar song forms, the all important backbeat, and the creation of the drumset with the new use of the double bass made up the pulse in popular music. The list goes on. This is all true even to this day.
Lil Flip
Same as everyone else, what's popular.
Pop country is way more liked than it should be, though.
Leonard Skinird desu
LOOK AT THIS PHOTOGRAPH
Johnny Rebel
Johnny Cash
If you want to fuck a Southern Girl all you gotta do is blast some Kenny Chesney from a pickup truck.

the GOAT
I see a lot of people in trucks with their rebel flags listening to nigga bass rap blasted through subs. It's irony at its best.
PanterA
I've was driving on the road that song is about today...fucking hate country "highways." Nothing is better than getting going 55 mph for 100 yards until the next red light. Fuck the south.
>LE EBIN ZAC BROWN BAND
...
Johnny Cash
Merle Haggard
Conway Twitty
That's pretty funny actually, the South is known for only listening to rap (trap mostly) and country.
Alabama man here, rap and gold school is really popular, but mostly classic rock and country.
DEATH COUNTRY
>If you want to fuck a Southern Girl
I'd rather fuck something that's not 300 lbs
Jason Aldean and Future
Texan here
I listen to mostly industrial, synthpop, techno
mostly rap if you're in the city
country and rap if you're in the country
rock if you're a white teen maybe
wilco
ghetto south probably alternates between rap and pantera. everything else is probably ted nugent, nickelback, florida georgia line etc.
Everytime I go to the supermarket there's Nickleback playing.
Texan here.
I like Woody Guthrie, Townes Van Zandt, Hank Williams, Sr, Merle Haggard, Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Robert Earl Keen, Guy Clark Billie Holiday and Bad Brains.
I love this state, fuck what anyone says. Is my Dad a crazy, backwoods racist with barely a high school education? Absolutely. Am I an alcoholic, redneck fuck with a dumbass accent? Absolutely.
Nothin' beats those Texas roads on a late night though, I tell ya.
That's all I ever hear at where I work. Songs about fucking tractors and shit
Man that would be a sick collab
This shitty excuse for a metal band. Pure white trash music.

You've never been to the south and assume they are automatically dumb and close minded being the open minded liberal you are.
When I was still in high school, Indie was big. Diiv, wavves and occasionally anco.
too patrician
A lot of the same stuff that's popular in other parts of the country, but if you want to get specific, white males who fly the dixie flag are probably either listening to some Jason Aldean or Florida Georgia Line, or listening to proper older country music - the type of stuff where you're pretty sure -no, you're certain- that the dude singing was drunk in Nashville and just stumbled into the studio. Think George Strait.
Older, settled-down, bible-belt "Metal is satanic and tattoos mean you're a sinner" types like my parents listen to Contemporary Gospel (Think Big Daddy Weave, Third Day, etc, I've avoided the genre for so long that I don't know any of the new "artists" creating monotonous and boring Christian "pop")
Rap fans in the south tend to lean towards Southern artists that are trendy. Lately it's been Fetty Wap. God, the amount of white college-aged rednecks who meet up in their pickup trucks, half drunk on light beer, in my local grocery store's parking lot, blasting Fetty Wap songs from their speakers and singing along loudly, is depressingly pleb.
Of course, anywhere you go, you'll find a huge variety of music tastes, and you'll find a lot of people who are into Coldplay, U2, etc, and think their taste is unique and different simply because it's not rap or country.
So yeah, that's Mississippi. I'm sure other states might be different. I know Southern meme-tier pop-rap is really popular in AL too.
...
burn it down bby
I live in Texas.
fuckin wew, the comments section is a circus
Hick hop
Music about fucking your sister, being traitors, being ignorant, making shit money whatever.
Fuck the south I wish you cunts had seceded burn in hell.
Agree with this but

I LIKE SUGAR N I LIKE TEA
Jonny Rebel
...
TN here and yeah that band seems to be real popular with pickup drivin' white boys. The only thing I've heard by them is that Bad Company remake they did but I see their tees all the time.
Do they listen to stoner and sludge metal there?
Depends on what circles you're in. A lot of modern country and radio pop/hip hop, but I know some people who listen to rap and I have friends who like more obscure stuff. I usually introduce people to "weirder" music, but I have one friend who's shown me some pretty cool stuff too. It's just about who you know, man.
But generally modern pop country. Which sucks.
You're doing those lyrics wrong.
Even the Deep South has an incredibly diverse musical landscape. Jazz, R&B, Hip Hop, Blues, Folk, Metal, Indie Rock, Emo, Punk, Bluegrass, and Country are all huge down here. Even if it's just with a niche market, for as decentralized and poor and underpopulated the South is there's always something new coming from any of those genres, especially from Texas, Tennessee, Georgia, and Louisiana.
I think it was the Scaruffi rating that gave this album meme status. I understand the criticism: no 9's all millennium, 1 9.5 for the history of music, then suddenly out of nowhere a 10 for such a politically divisive record? OBND is, to be fair, spectacularly flawed: it hews too close to its obvious inspirations, Trout Mask Replica, Kaoru Abe's Winter 1972, and Stravinsky's Rite of Spring to name a few; some parts, most notably the 9 minute modal jazz fugue 'If My Truck Could Talk', are ambitious to the point of onanism; the dynamics, from -25 dBA RMS for tracks on end to the sound-barrier-breaking cathartic noise tempest on 'Two Night Town: Part II (the Second Night)', make it no less easy for ears accustomed to modern production. I would argue that it is precisely these flaws that give OBND it's effervescent je-ne-sais-pais that keeps me coming back to it. From Aldean's liner notes to Burnin' It Down, the centerpiece of his divisive modal post-country album, Old Boots, New Dirt:
"Suppose that a man leaps out of a burning building and lands on a bystander in the street below. Now, make the burning building be Europe, and the luckless man underneath be the Palestinian Arabs. Is this a historical injustice? Has the man below been made a victim, with infinite cause of complaint and indefinite justification for violent retaliation? My own reply would be a provisional 'no,' but only on these conditions. The leaper must make such restitution as he can to the man who broke his fall, and must not pretend that he never even landed on him. And he must base his case on the singularity and uniqueness of the original leap. It can't, in other words, be 'leap, leap, leap' for four generations and more. The people underneath cannot be expected to tolerate leaping on this scale and of this duration, if you catch my drift. In Palestine, tread softly, for you tread on their dreams. And do not tell the Palestinians that they were never fallen upon and bruised in the first place.
>Two Night Town: Part II (the Second Night)
Kentuckian here, I mostly listen to Autechre, dub techno, glitch, the list goes on core
>Kentucky
>Southern
Hillbillies+Poverty+Country music =/= The South. Pennsylvania might as well be southern at that rate.
MUSCLE SHOOOOOALS
Kentucky is southern both culturally and geographically m8
God if I were from the south I'd be so fucking embarrassed fuck
SC here, got a battle flag and the stars and bars on my wall next to a johnny cash poster. favorite band is godflesh, really like dub and acid too.
>song about louisiana

As a southerner, I agree Chicago is a lot smoother. They're different. Delta blues is beautifully raw, I find.
that is the joke
field recordings of diabetes pumps (performed live)
Must be a Mississippi genre
