I like to think I can enjoy some stuff from most any genre but if I had to pick one probably like really hard metal ? Not familiar with the exact terminology, but I find it very grating and not in a satisfying way. Also isn’t a lot of it pretty nazi adjacent/outright nazi ? I may just be very ignorant of the genre but yea
there are problems with nazi presence in extreme metal, and because the genre is so heavily white, cis, and male, it can end up with reactionaries being allowed to stay. but on the other end of extreme metal you can find a lot of queer people and women making great shit as well as bands that are very leftist or at least hold some of those ideals. i myself am a trans woman in the extreme metal scene and it’s really a 50/50 chance if a space is reactionary or not but overall i love the welcoming spaces i’ve found.
