Goth and industrial are not extremely popular. That's my genre of preference and it's not to be found on the airwaves in the US. There's all that pretend "alternative" out there, but that's just mass marketed mainstream fluff repackaged to appeal to the angst of today's youth.[/QUOTE]Well, the world's bigger than America, you know?
Goth is fast becoming popular in Europe, and since we have many members that are European, it stands to reason that there will be more people here that listen to that kind of music. I hear lots of goth on the radio here.
Anyway, the bands like Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, System of a Down, Papa Roach, Korn, Tool (and excuse the mixing of crappy bands with good ones), Incubus, Alien Ant Farm are all extremely popular as well, and most of them are definitely a sub-category of metal.
