I posted a thread nearly exactly like this in another guild, but seeing that there are more people here I will post it here too.
I'm in desperate need of more music to fill my iPhone with. If you could recommend some bands and singers to me I would greatly appreciate it. In the next post I will have a list (It's probably nowhere near complete since I have a mix of tastes and band names tend to escape me).
I'm not a huge fan of anime and vocaloids and stuff, and I could never get into K-Pop, J-Pop, or whatever letter pop you could throw at me so getting me to like it would be futile. I'll listen to the occasional already widely known song (Ponponpon, etc) but it's quite seldom. If I hate something you like I really am sorry ^^" I mean no offense to the singer and definitely not the fans in particular.

I'm going to organize this by genre I guess, sorry if I accidentally put something in the wrong genre. I'm not going to go as far as splitting rock into metal, alternative, punk etc I'm just going to stuff it all into rock. Do not recommend any dubstep to me.
I am not finished with this list yet. If I've missed something let me know! Use Ctrl+F to see if I already have an artist on this list.
Pop Artists
Adele (Technically pop, I guess? No idea.) Coldplay (I dunno, it kind of varies between songs but I consider them pop especially with their latest album..) Beyonce (Epic. Just epic.) Lady Gaga (HA!) Maroon 5 (Kind of like a mix, but I count them as pop. Don't know what exact genre it is) Katy Perry (Very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very seldom) Kerli (She is pop, just not well known I guess?) Enrique Iglesias (He might be pop, I dunno. Don't listen to this dude much) The Veronicas (Very seldom, but they seem to have disappeared off the face of the planet.) Rihanna (Mainly her older stuff. Not very often) Elton John (I don't care what you say, he is AWESOME! iTunes said he is a pop artist so I'm just going with that.) Lenka Leona Lewis Michael Buble (EPIC!) Natasha Bedingfield Coblie Caillat OneRepublic Kelly Clarkson (I don't care what people think, she still rocks and I grew up listening to her music.... emo Her later stuff is more country though.) The Killers (They're technically alternative, I think, but eh. They're just effing amazing.) Paramore The Ting Tings Flyleaf (This, and the two above, may be semi-rock but I haven't a clue) Vanessa Carlton (looooove) Christina Aguilera Elliot Yamin Eric Hutchinson Estelle Delilah (She's like the prettier, more talented Rihanna) P!nk (Yes, just yes) Boys Like Girls (Poppy boy band, sorry)
Hip Hop? This list will be very, very short and the ones listed might only have 1 or two songs I like
Nicki Minaj (I only like Super Bass. Nothing else.) Akon (Mostly his early 2000's stuff, but once again, very seldom.) Ne-yo (He actually has a respectable voice!) T-Pain (I don't listen to him much but guilty pleasure I guess?)
Rock Artists/Bands (I may be missing some people under this section.)
Kings of Leon (Don't ask why I wrote them first?) Breaking Benjamin (DUUUHHHH talk2hand ) The Calling Creed (Seldom.) Muse Blink 182 (Duh.) The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus Santana ( heart ) Three Days Grace / 3 Days Grace Tool Stone Sour Sum 41 SR-71 3 Doors Down Weezer The Offspring Marilyn Manson (This is a given, if you've known me long enough.) Nickelback (I don't like this band as much as I used to) Nirvana (Some of their songs sound like total horseshit but some are okay) Skillet (Seldom.) Linkin Park (Eh..) Finger Eleven Green Day Dropkick Murphys Seether Hinder Hoobastank (Lol, funny name) Evanescence (Not as much as I used to) Bullet for My Valentine (This should also be a given.) Trapt (Name a song by them besides Headstrong and you win a cookie!) Apocalyptica Alice Cooper Aerosmith Between The Trees
Soundtracks
Final Fantasy stuff. Homestuck stuff (I'm a Member of the Midnight Crew.... ninja ) Assorted movie soundtracks. Klaus Badelt Stephen Sondheim Random stuff from Dance Dance Revolution.
Techno-y Pop Stuff
Pogo Toybox Aqua Daft Punk (I need more songs from them ._.) The Foozogz (Technically all they do is mix My Little Pony stuff together but it sounds awesome) Vengaboys Caramell (I'm not a huge fan, no matter how catchy the speedy mixes are.)
IDK Pile Meaning I have no idea what technical genre they are, they sound like one thing but could be another.
Rob Thomas (EPIIIIICCC <3 <3 <3 <3 <3) Snow Patrol (Pop? Alternative? I don't know!) Daughtry (Are they country? Soft rock? Just wut?) The Fray (Soft rock ish?)
Under Investigation Artists that have been recommended to me or ones that I know of and am trying out.
Avenged Sevenfold (I've heard of these dudes a lot but I've never listened to many of their songs. Weird, right?) Yellowcard (I only know a few of their songs but I NEED MOAR!) Simple Plan (Same deal as with Yellowcard)
Ones that I've tried and just don't like or just don't want to hear ever again.
Metallica. (I just...can't get into it. Sorry. I feel bad about this.) Lana Del Ray (Sorry, no.) Justin Bieber (Obviousness is obvious) Ke$ha (I only like parodies!) Taylor Swift (Obviousness.) White Chapel (Sorry, just no....) Black Veil Brides (Sorry.) Asking Alexandria (Even though my name is Aleksandria, sorry just no!) One Direction
