Metal is my favourite genre and those are the three sub-genres I probably listen to the most. A lot of these bands either changed styles during their careers or have had other influences in their music at some time or another but there’s a basic list of some favourite artists of mine.
I like bits of other stuff though too like neofolk,martial, alternative rock/grunge, heavy metal, doom metal, some punk and shoegaze

theatrical wurlitzer pipe organ music.
older pops/CW/rock&roll/r&b.
novelties.
electronic music from the 60s/70s/80s
percussion music.

My favorite genre is Rock, favorite subgenre of Rock is Metal, favorite subgenre of Metal is Symphonic. For stuff of a completely different domain I also like New Wave, and sort of ambient, minimal, aetheral stuff.

I'm a huge fan of classical, everything from Renaissance to present . There's so much to explore that it never gets old. If I listened to a new classical piece every day for the rest of my life, I'd still have some left to listen to lol. I also love folk/folk rock, but more of the style popularized in the late 60s/early 70s that doesn't seem to be practiced much anymore. The songwriting style back then was often just so much more intimate and poetic than today. And I love the blues as well! Mainly post-war electric blues, but some of the pure acoustic or older styles are pretty powerful too, like Lightnin' Hopkins or old John Lee Hooker.

i like situational music

Whatever the bands on my iPod fall under

I tend to like a lot of experimental music. Lot's of layers and an unconventional structure. Noise rock, noise pop, neo-psychedelia, freak folk, free jazz, avant-garde, and stuff.

chamber music and small ensambles

Electronic. Owl City is the closest thing I have to a favorite band right now.
