What's the most NT music genre in the world?

Yeah, metal can get very focused.

Take Leprous for an example:

Can I ask what makes something a music genre for either group? I was thinking and this is a vague question. I know most genres can be enjoyed by either group, so no point to compare and isolate by neurological state.

I just needed an excuse to post Leprous.

But yeah, there are autistic people with bad taste.

And those without autism with bad taste. But criticism is looked down upon in this culture so hard to say what's truly crap from an objective sense unless you know music like I do...I play 2 instruments, sing, and do composition/lyrics. Does that make me any more qualified as a purely emotional person to gauge that though?

Drone metal.

Actually I kinda take back some of this.
Country, it could be argued, is VERY autistic one respect.

The lyrics in country are the most straightforward and least subject to interpretation of any genre. Little is left between the lines. So country music lyrics are the best suited to the literal minded- which many aspies are.

I was more under the impression that aspies like lyrics that are completely out there.

Lol, I'm an aspie and that's literally all I listen to. And Alice in Chains.

Thats what Im saying!

No, completely out there like this:

I don't think I know of any aspie's who like Country lyrics. Yes, the lyrics are straight forward, but they are shallow, I don't think many aspies could relate to them.

Anyway, I'm not going to say Metal is AS or ADHD, but it's definitely not super NT.

I like classic country fairly well. Modern country is more or less the same as rap music, just with the content being made for Western/Southern white people. The exact same self aggrandizing lyrics, but replace "Escalade on 24s" with "Lifted diesel pickup with the mud tires and smokestacks." And how "you ain't hard if you ain't from New York/Los Angeles/Chicago" to "I bet he aint no country boy like me who can skin a deer and drive a harvester tractor" or something. I'd say rap leaves much less to the imagination than country, for worse. Modern country can be pretty damned hilarious.

Classic country, though, is more classic love song type stuff, just done with country instrumentals. Not bad music really. But I think what happened with both music styles, rap and country, sometime in their history they tried to be more for mass appeal. Then later, the genres got more internalized if that makes sense. They both decided to really narrow the demographics, with rap being "the hood" and country being "the country" or whatever.

Like, a song like this:

Everyone that's ever had any romantic feelings can relate to something like that, but most people cannot relate or feel very sorry for a man driving his International Harvester on the road at 5mph blocking traffic.

ganondox, System of a Down does have strange lyrics...can't make any sense of them often. Same issue I have with the Deftones.

Anyone here follow Peter Schickele in his alter-ego of Prof. Peter Schickele, the erstwhile scholar of P.D.Q. Bach, the 22nd of J.S. Bach's 21 sons?

Dub step!! !!

Something danceable and unintelligent. But that's probably not true. I knew an aspie in high school who was all about hardcore. Awkward fellow too.
There is no music that is more NT than another and we shouldnt make NT into a bad term.

I've been on a downtempo kick lately. Most of it doesn't even have lyrics. Pandora's downtempo station is pretty good.

I think the most NT music would be the generic pop love song, followed by country, rap, and the other sub-culture specific genres.
