I love classical music. Among my favorite pieces are the first movement of Bach’s _Brandenburg Concerto No. 5,_ Gustav Holst’s two military band suites, and “March of the Swiss Soldiers,” the finale of Rossini’s _William Tell Overture._
I cannot understand how much kudos is attached to Rap. No matter which quickly forgotten form it takes it is just a bunch of non-musicians talking to a computer programme and flapping their arms like a wounded pigeon. Personally I think black music hit the bottom after Disco ,at least disco artists (especially funk) played actual real instruments . My generation fell in love with black music from Motown to Soul to 60s Ska and even Blues. Most of what we hear now is just bland Supermarket Music.
hence why WatchMojoUK is the superior channel they take the piss out of themselves and their videos rather than coming across as smuggly superior twats
The way you see how music dies could be the same if we say this channel is dead. Not as popular as it was once, but from time to time we come to see your repetitive lists and some people are still discovering you. I'd say: no. You're not dead WatchMojo. Neither these music genres.
Classical music won't be dead until the last concert hall, opera house, movie studio, T.V. production company, video game developer, advertising agency, church, synagogue, mosque, university, music festival, record label, Broadway, off-Broadway, and off-off-Broadway theater is closed down.
Well said. Classical music shall be enjoyed for as long as we will be around as a species: many timeless masterpieces from classical music have been ingrained in culture
Nah, WatchMojo was just redoing their Zune playlists and said, “…hey, we can make this into another seemingly authoritative, yet completely out of touch video!” 😑
Also feel like there are so many good neoclassical and postrock bands/quartets etc. I think music taste is just very diversified these days. I listened to a lot of Indie music in the 2010s that never hit mainstream, I listen to a lot of instrumental music and when I want to get lit I pull out Eurotrance and 80s music

I love 90s music with a passion. Everything from hip hop to grunge to country to ska, man i loved it all. Everything about that decade holds a special place in my heart.
The Disco movement might’ve died, but many elements of the genre still live on. Many post disco era artists and bands (Daft Punk, Madonna, Justin Timberlake, Michael Jackson, etc.) have included disco elements into their music. House/electronic music emerged thanks to disco’s downfall, but it retained many of disco’s attributes.
Disco died, but like Phoenix, it arise, and birthed House, Techno, Acid, Jungle, Breakbeat, all sort of Electronic musics and rave culture that still going strong to this day.
Dance music never went away. The disco lifestyle fell out of favor with drugs and unsafe sex. Anything that over the top will have a very short shelf life
I’d like to give a shout out to trip hop, a 90s genre that originated in Bristol and melded elements of hip hop, electronica, movie music and jazz…..it was so influential for a while that no gritty british crime drama was without a trip hop track…massive attack and portishead are the giants of the genre and it still feels fresh and different today…i think the genre label is a bit misleading in some ways…..
Classical music stars. Ever heard of John Williams? Or Howard Shore? How about Danny Elfman? These are not unknown classical artists. Their concerts sell out and most people know their music, especially if you are into classical music. John Williams, in particular, is very famous and still produces excellent classical pieces to this day, worthy of Oscar nominations. And concerts showcasing video games music also sell out. People buy the scores when they purchase the games. If you are into classical music, you know the contemporary artists. Nobuo Uematsu and Kojo Kondo to name two in video games. If anything, with the rise of video games, classical music is experiencing a new Renaissance and not a death nell.
People have to hear & see it in the right venue. Lucky me, it was a mandatory field trip at a public school in 1970. My parents came here right off the boat 1954, first big purchase was not a TV, it was a piano.
I was going to say, 200 years from now in music appreciation classes the name Williams will be mentioned in the same breath of Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin and Tchaikovsky just to name a few.
If you look beyond those people and into younger folks. There’s a producer named “Dev stacks” listen to his beats; it’s orchestra driven and it’s so fucking hard n beautiful.
@@alexkunce2002 Releasing new albums doesn’t mean it isn’t dead. Emo is no longer relevant, therefore dead. A lot of bands & artists still release albums despite their heyday being long gone. Rock in general is dead, but old acts are still releasing records. Uriah Heep released a record in 2023, yet young people probably don’t even know who they are! I barely discovered them in 2020 and are an awesome band, but they are way past their prime and unfortunately no longer relevant.
Hard Rock, Arena Rock, Metal & Heavy Metal is still really huge in Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Finland, Germany, Greece, Japan, Norway and Sweden. And it is still alive in the United Kingdom, and it is making a huge massive resurgence in the United States, and expanding big time.
Hair metal evolved? Into what? Even the metal world wants nothing to do with it. It was absolutely pitiful musically and lyrically, and it died because it's fan base grew up and grew brains/taste.
Don't you mean devolved? Today's amorphous unimaginative no-talents rely on autotune and digitalised crap. Hearing a new song that is anywhere near worth listening to is akin to searching for a diamond in a sewer.
lol well for starters, several of these genres were 21st century genre creations to begin with ('emo', 'seapunk', and 'brostep' from immediate memory). As for the rest: a.) Classical: Pretty much any Hans Zimmer song, pretty much any of Tyondai Braxton's solo work, those are just 2 examples, look them up for specific songs b.) New Wave had a HUGE revival in the 00s (often intertwined with Indie and numerous other subgenrees). Some songs include 'Apply Some Pressure' by Maximo Park, 'Mr. You're On Fire' by Liars, 'House of Jealous Lovers' by Rapture, 'A Punk' by Vampire Weekend and 'Strange Overtone's by David Byrne c.) Post Grunge or Grunge Revival? The latter would include Dope Body's 2015 grunge inspired album Lifer (song specific: 'Repo Man'); the former lets just go with pretty much ANY Nickelback song released in the last 20 years so any of those cover your remaining 4 songs. d.) Seapunk was created in the early 2010s, go Wiki it, so EVERY SEAPUNK SONG EVER e.) Mainstream Emo had its heyday in the 00s, Wiki it, so EVERY EMO SONG EVER (excluding 80s/90s first wave midwest emo) f.) Both first wave dubstep (Burial its chief known innovator) and its more popular son brostep (including Skrillex) were 21st century creations so EVERY DUBSTEP SONG EVER, once again, wiki it. And so on and so forth. And let's not forget all the independent grassroots musicians out there. Proof? Go to Soundcloud or Bandcamp and type in LITERALLY ANY GENRE OR SUBGENRE and you will come up with hundreds if not thousands of results. Have I made my point yet, Jimbob, muh boy? @@jimbo9208
Classical music isn't dead. When I worked for the Los Angeles Philharmonic (as recently as 2014), we could easily bring in 4,000 to 10,000 people at the Hollywood Bowl performances every weekend throughout the summer.
@@ellenwuzhere Williams, Shore, Elfman, Zimmer, and Herrmann composed music specifically for film scores.

Okay, "NewWave" was first used to describe PUNK bands because radio program directors would not play PUNK music. But once record companies started inserting the term "NewWave" instead of PUNK, several bands started to get radio play.

Musical genres will never be dead, simply resting and biting their time like a vampire sleeping in a coffin. One day they will rise from their slumber to walk the earth once again...
Easy Listening, Swing/Big Band and Disco are still alive and well. Young people are discovering it again and not only enjoying it, but making their own contributions to them. Look up groups that have been formed in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, for example.
You added Eurotrance but forgot Eurodance? Eurodance had such a big impact in the early 90s around the world (except USA lol), the genre marked an era but then got discontinued.
Classical music, you mostly hear it in movies or operas. It's not mainstream, but it's still alive, and well. most of these genres are more underground.
@@notacreativehandle that kid is such a sad individual. Imagine spam replying multiple comments for attention. Also what's crazy, I have seen him spam immature comments as well. I just wish he would grow up or get banned for it .
Classical still lives in certain countries like Russia, Armenia, and Latvia, which have produced such living talents as Alla Pavlova, Imants Kalniņš, and Tigran Mansuryan.
@@madeleinep.828 More like one of many people realizing that the stuff playing on radios and being heavily promoted on other media is just kinda trash. If we didn't get saturated with it at stores and in various media sources, it wouldn't be so bad. Good thing we have the internet to find some of good the tons of good stuff out there, both old and new
Emo was still very much alive after 2010. It’s still alive now. Just because certain bands aren’t at the front of the scene doesn’t mean there aren’t other artists working just as hard to play some sick songs.
3:30 I throw on Africa REGULARLY. I love the song. When I was in concert band in 9th grade (1986) we played it. Toto is a great band all the way around. So is Steely Dan. I guess I’m a yacht rocker chick.
None of these genres are dead. There’s a lot of people that listen to all of them still… I’m one of them. And if swing is dead, how come there are so many West Coast Swing competitions and videos showing the type of dance?
I think Hip Hop might have outgrown it's boundaries, the thing to look for is "New Jazz" coming from London, South America, and Africa. It comes from where Amy Winehouse was trying to explore. I'm telling everyone, New Jazz is happening
dubstep/brostep is the saddest one for me but luckily there are still some songs out there if you look hard enough and you can always go back to the past and find songs you missed during its peak
"Can you name one classical composer from the 21st century?" James Horner. John Williams. Hans Zimmer. Alan Silvestri. Jerry Goldsmith. That's just off the top of my head. Classical music never died... It Evolved.
I was thinking the same. It's called classical music for a reason, it's classic. It never dies. I can't believe these music wannabes put it on the list😂
Exactly!!! I wrote a similar post. This is a popular genre. Movie and game music concerts sell out. Most people can probably recognize at least one theme from a popular composer or movie or video game scores. I would say that classical music is experiencing a Renaissance not a death nell.
Williams, Shore, Elfman, Zimmer, and Herrmann composed music specifically for film scores. Twentieth century classical music composers that composed music for the concert hall are: Samuel Adler Louis Andriessen Béla Bartók Havergal Brian Elliott Carter Carlos Chávez Edward Elgar George Enescu Gabriel Fauré Morton Feldman Brian Ferneyhough Alberto Ginastera Henryk Górecki Sofia Gubaidulina Alan Hovhaness György Ligeti Witold Lutosławski Bruno Maderna Bohuslav Martinů Carl Nielsen Krzysztof Penderecki Francis Poulenc Giacomo Puccini Sergei Rachmaninoff Alfred Schnittke Kaikhosru Shapurji Sorabji Patric Standford Mikis Theodorakis Michael Tippett Joan Tower Ralph Vaughan Williams Heitor Villa-Lobos William Walton Judith Weir Iannis Xenakis Malcolm Arnold Leonard Bernstein Marc Blitzstein Aaron Copland George Gershwin Nikolai Kapustin Constant Lambert Darius Milhaud Maurice Ravel Gunther Schuller John Serry Sr. Dmitri Shostakovich Karlheinz Stockhausen Igor Stravinsky
Yeah too many bands sounding the same made the metal seen fall out of pop culture in the early 90’s and then grunge hit. But Metal is back from the smoke filled bars baby…huger than ever. Long live rock n’ roll.
Goth and Emo started in the 80’s. We had The Cure, and Depeche Mode amongst others. Maybe they were called something else back then, but I was definitely rocking the goth look back then.
Well, a lot of the goth genre came straight from the imagery and music from punk bands like The Damned and Siouxsie and the Banshees and post-punk like Bauhaus.
While I kinda resent it, I know grunge as a genre has died, but the big 4 didn't really share a sound. It was more of a movement localized in Seattle with a similar spirit (no pun) and aesthetic. Also, Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains are very much alive (I'd even say AiC is better than Staley's era). Good thing is that rock and roll, heavy metal and punk are ageless. Not a fad.
Emo and emotional hardcore are 2 separate genres at this point. Emo being the commercialization and popification of the former. I don't know where assholes goths came in as emotional hardcore traces roots back to punk. Nor do I care. Fuck your affectations.
Classical Music is the incorrect term given to Art Music (as opposed to Folk and Popular Music). The true Classical Music was from the time period of the 1750s to the early 1820s. You mention Tchaikovsky, yet he would be of the Romantic Music era. Elena Ruehr is a very talented contemporary Art Music composer. Least we forget Philip Glass, Michael Nyman, John Williams, and Danny Elfman, among many other composers who work in film. Even pop stars like Joe Jackson and Paul McCartney have dabbled in Art Music. I think you have forgotten that it was never music for the masses. The common folk of the composers own time periods could not have told you who Bach, Beethoven, or Mozart were, nor have heard thier music.
Williams, Shore, Elfman, Zimmer, and Herrmann composed music specifically for film scores. Twentieth century classical music composers that composed Art Music for the concert hall are: Samuel Adler Louis Andriessen Béla Bartók Havergal Brian Elliott Carter Carlos Chávez Edward Elgar George Enescu Gabriel Fauré Morton Feldman Brian Ferneyhough Alberto Ginastera Henryk Górecki Sofia Gubaidulina Alan Hovhaness György Ligeti Witold Lutosławski Bruno Maderna Bohuslav Martinů Carl Nielsen Krzysztof Penderecki Francis Poulenc Giacomo Puccini Sergei Rachmaninoff Alfred Schnittke Kaikhosru Shapurji Sorabji Patric Standford Mikis Theodorakis Michael Tippett Joan Tower Ralph Vaughan Williams Heitor Villa-Lobos William Walton Judith Weir Iannis Xenakis Malcolm Arnold Leonard Bernstein Marc Blitzstein Aaron Copland George Gershwin Nikolai Kapustin Constant Lambert Darius Milhaud Maurice Ravel Gunther Schuller John Serry Sr. Dmitri Shostakovich Karlheinz Stockhausen Igor Stravinsky
I'm an 80s kid, and I STILL listen to "new wave"/ Brit pop daily. Passionate, quirky vocals with a dance beat is perfection. Depeche Mode, Erasure, The Cure, and OMD were the soundtracks of my youth. I raised my kids, now grown, to appreciate Blondie, Anything Box, New Order, & The Smiths,and they blast those jams in their own homes. I blame crappy grunge music for displacing new wave music in the 90s.
This is the beautiful thing about music. It ebbs and flows through the ages. There is literally music for everyone and it is a universal language. It is poetry. It can lift you up, make you move, calm you down, make you feel angry, make you cry, make you laugh....
What's kind of funny is whenever a movie, game or TV show is set during a time period these songs are popular they not only get the old songs but sometimes even get new songs in that genre made for those projects
Especially Grunge. Nirvana was THE band that got me into "Rock music" in 1999 when I was 12 years old and most Rock enthusiasts agree the 90's was the last great Rock decade.
I hate how everything from the latest big thing to adverts for electronics and food delivery services uses some vile variant of rap/drill/hip hop shite. It's about time it was flushed away like the turd it is.
Max Richter is a 21st century classical (western art music) composer, and when his works are performed it sells out music venues. He has several albums and has over a billion streams of his music online. He has also won numerous awards. He is one of a number of rather popular classical composers. Some others are: Ludovico Einaudi, Hildur Guðnadóttir. Eric Whitacre, Hans Zimmer, Yoko Shimomura, and the prodigy Alma Deutscher who is currently only 19 years old and began composing piano music at age 5. Just because paparazzi don't follow classical composers around doesn't mean the genre is dead. I challenge you to look up some of these composers (they are all here on youtube) if you want to hear some truly beautiful music.
Mathcore deserves an honorable mention. It may not had gotten a ton of airplay but Bands like Converge, Botch, and The Dillinger Escape Plan had made cult followings in that field.
Workers Rock - I can add. Today it does not matter if you are a worker, a driver, a butcher or a designer, you listen to what you like. You are right with Classical music. Everyone who composes it today, uses computers. Many composers add electric guitars and drums. Some even use sampled classical instruments.
You could have also mentioned - Glam rock from the 70s (T Rex, Slade, Suzi Quattro) Funk from the 70s (Parliament) Psychedelic music from the 60s (many groups including the Beatles, the Doors, Jimi Hendrix) Motown music from the 60s (Supremes, Temptations, Smokey Robinson)
I’m amazed that Industrial didn’t make this list! Even though I was and still am a huge fan of the genre, I have to admit that it pretty much died shortly after the 90’s.
Forgot prog rock (progressive). Pink Floyd, Yes, Jethro Tull, Rush, Emerson Lake & Palmer And glam rock. Queen, David Bowie, Alice Cooper, Elton John, KISS And, well, hard rock. Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Rolling Stones, Aerosmith And punk rock. Sex Pistols, Ramones, Green Day, the Clash I could go on.
I still listen to eurorap (which has classical pieces into it), eurotrance, as well as dub/ska. Although there are no new artists for the euro- genres, they are still played and actively listened on the local radio station by many.
Technically, the Bee Gees, Donna Summer, and Chic were not "pure" Disco artists, they were artists that mined multiple genres and happened to make some songs that fit into the then contemporary dance music style.
I thought that Donna Summer was the best female Disco solo artist. I was sad to hear when she passed away from lung cancer at age 65. She was a lifelong nonsmoker.
@@vickyabramowitz2885 Passive smoking, that is inhaling other people's smoke, is a very common problem for people in the music business. Smoke in venues. Very sad.
watch Swing Kids. brilliant movie. it got me into listening to Django Reinhardt. wow. also look up Gene Krupa, an Apollo 440 song named Krupa got me researching the name and finding a drum legend from the Benny Goodman days. damn i love the drum beat in big band swing.
Punk is not dead! It has evolved. No music dies, it simply becomes less popular. I was in a village in northern Thailand a few years banging out Barbie Girl with my daughter on karaoke, as well as a solo rendition of Tragedy (at 2:00 am), while in the Philippines I treated the locals to My Delilah as well as a version of Jolene. In Honduras, we even smashed out a version of Living on a Prayer and Somebody Told Me.
I forget which documentary it wss, but remember it saying Hip Hop got started with the end of the Disco movement. Records were easy to find and cheaper for the DJs to mix with for house parties. Thought that was cool
@@Gamer2k4 Williams, Shore, Elfman, Zimmer, and Herrmann composed music specifically for film scores. The composition is driven by the film plot. Twentieth century classical music composers that composed Art Music that is not film plot-driven are: Samuel Adler Louis Andriessen Béla Bartók Havergal Brian Elliott Carter Carlos Chávez Edward Elgar George Enescu Gabriel Fauré Morton Feldman Brian Ferneyhough Alberto Ginastera Henryk Górecki Sofia Gubaidulina Alan Hovhaness György Ligeti Witold Lutosławski Bruno Maderna Bohuslav Martinů Carl Nielsen Krzysztof Penderecki Francis Poulenc Giacomo Puccini Sergei Rachmaninoff Alfred Schnittke Kaikhosru Shapurji Sorabji Patric Standford Mikis Theodorakis Michael Tippett Joan Tower Ralph Vaughan Williams Heitor Villa-Lobos William Walton Judith Weir Iannis Xenakis Malcolm Arnold Leonard Bernstein Marc Blitzstein Aaron Copland George Gershwin Nikolai Kapustin Constant Lambert Darius Milhaud Maurice Ravel Gunther Schuller John Serry Sr. Dmitri Shostakovich Karlheinz Stockhausen Igor Stravinsky
Very interesting. I lost count of the ones I had never heard. Some I am glad I didn't know. In all fairness I date back to Sinatra, then came to classic rock-n-roll, classic jazz, outlaw country and Tejano. Now, I am old enough to mix my genres.
Disco just went underground and reemerged as House Music. It was the commercial side that died, but several of the genres mentioned are descendants of Disco, notably Trance and Nu-Wave

Hair metal evolved? Into what? Even the metal world wants nothing to do with it. It was absolutely pitiful musically and lyrically, and it died because it's fan base grew up and grew brains/taste.
Don't you mean devolved? Today's amorphous unimaginative no-talents rely on autotune and digitalised crap.
Hearing a new song that is anywhere near worth listening to is akin to searching for a diamond in a sewer.
lol well for starters, several of these genres were 21st century genre creations to begin with ('emo', 'seapunk', and 'brostep' from immediate memory). As for the rest: a.) Classical: Pretty much any Hans Zimmer song, pretty much any of Tyondai Braxton's solo work, those are just 2 examples, look them up for specific songs b.) New Wave had a HUGE revival in the 00s (often intertwined with Indie and numerous other subgenrees). Some songs include 'Apply Some Pressure' by Maximo Park, 'Mr. You're On Fire' by Liars, 'House of Jealous Lovers' by Rapture, 'A Punk' by Vampire Weekend and 'Strange Overtone's by David Byrne c.) Post Grunge or Grunge Revival? The latter would include Dope Body's 2015 grunge inspired album Lifer (song specific: 'Repo Man'); the former lets just go with pretty much ANY Nickelback song released in the last 20 years so any of those cover your remaining 4 songs. d.) Seapunk was created in the early 2010s, go Wiki it, so EVERY SEAPUNK SONG EVER e.) Mainstream Emo had its heyday in the 00s, Wiki it, so EVERY EMO SONG EVER (excluding 80s/90s first wave midwest emo) f.) Both first wave dubstep (Burial its chief known innovator) and its more popular son brostep (including Skrillex) were 21st century creations so EVERY DUBSTEP SONG EVER, once again, wiki it. And so on and so forth. And let's not forget all the independent grassroots musicians out there. Proof? Go to Soundcloud or Bandcamp and type in LITERALLY ANY GENRE OR SUBGENRE and you will come up with hundreds if not thousands of results. Have I made my point yet, Jimbob, muh boy? @@jimbo9208
🎉Totally agree!
Classical music isn't dead. When I worked for the Los Angeles Philharmonic (as recently as 2014), we could easily bring in 4,000 to 10,000 people at the Hollywood Bowl performances every weekend throughout the summer.
Emo didn't die, it's still alive, just not commercial.

Auto-tune. Made people really lazy.

Those genres aren't dead, they're just not played on the radio anymore. I like most of them more than anything that is mainstream nowadays.
Okay, "NewWave" was first used to describe PUNK bands because radio program directors would not play PUNK music. But once record companies started inserting the term "NewWave" instead of PUNK, several bands started to get radio play.
True
In a documentary, a guy said "NewWave doesn`t exist it`s a term used by people who are afraid to admit they like Punk Rock."

Musical genres will never be dead, simply resting and biting their time like a vampire sleeping in a coffin.
One day they will rise from their slumber to walk the earth once again...
Easy Listening, Swing/Big Band and Disco are still alive and well. Young people are discovering it again and not only enjoying it, but making their own contributions to them. Look up groups that have been formed in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, for example.
You added Eurotrance but forgot Eurodance? Eurodance had such a big impact in the early 90s around the world (except USA lol), the genre marked an era but then got discontinued.
Classical music, you mostly hear it in movies or operas. It's not mainstream, but it's still alive, and well. most of these genres are more underground.

Todays Music is influenced by the inability of the people to stay longer than 7 Minutes by one and the same thing.
Emo was still very much alive after 2010. It’s still alive now. Just because certain bands aren’t at the front of the scene doesn’t mean there aren’t other artists working just as hard to play some sick songs.
It wasnt called Yacht Rock then.

None of these genres are dead. There’s a lot of people that listen to all of them still…
I’m one of them.
And if swing is dead, how come there are so many West Coast Swing competitions and videos showing the type of dance?
Agree with you
I'm surprised they didn't mention funk genres
I just hate how hip hop has replaced everything...
say it louder please
I think Hip Hop might have outgrown it's boundaries, the thing to look for is "New Jazz" coming from London, South America, and Africa.
It comes from where Amy Winehouse was trying to explore. I'm telling everyone, New Jazz is happening
You are looking in the wrong place then.
hmmm rap, not hip hop
That's easily fixed. Stop listening to the radio.
dubstep/brostep is the saddest one for me but luckily there are still some songs out there if you look hard enough and you can always go back to the past and find songs you missed during its peak
But there will always be Ylvis - Someone Like Me 😂

Classical music never died... It Evolved.
I was thinking the same. It's called classical music for a reason, it's classic. It never dies. I can't believe these music wannabes put it on the list😂
Exactly!!! I wrote a similar post. This is a popular genre. Movie and game music concerts sell out. Most people can probably recognize at least one theme from a popular composer or movie or video game scores. I would say that classical music is experiencing a Renaissance not a death nell.

Yeah too many bands sounding the same made the metal seen fall out of pop culture in the early 90’s and then grunge hit. But Metal is back from the smoke filled bars baby…huger than ever. Long live rock n’ roll.
Disco never dies!!
YES RIGHT
@@gussfish8670
Nope.
None of these genres died for me. They are still very much alive in my heart❤
Don't tell Brian Setzer Orchestra, Speedswing, or the Big Bad Voodoo Daddy that swing is dead.
Goth and Emo started in the 80’s. We had The Cure, and Depeche Mode amongst others. Maybe they were called something else back then, but I was definitely rocking the goth look back then.
Goth started in the 1970s with post punk and Joy Division.
Well, a lot of the goth genre came straight from the imagery and music from punk bands like The Damned and Siouxsie and the Banshees and post-punk like Bauhaus.
Ludovico Einardt . . . There you go, modern composer, bloody brilliant and lots of people have heard of him
“Your music is like the soundtrack to a vasectomy!” Freddie Mercury

While I kinda resent it, I know grunge as a genre has died, but the big 4 didn't really share a sound. It was more of a movement localized in Seattle with a similar spirit (no pun) and aesthetic. Also, Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains are very much alive (I'd even say AiC is better than Staley's era).
Good thing is that rock and roll, heavy metal and punk are ageless. Not a fad.
Of course WatchMojo would confuse Pop/Punk with Emo
Both Genres are Resurrected!!!!!
basically Goth...
both pop punk and emo are alive and possibly bigger than ever lol
Emo and emotional hardcore are 2 separate genres at this point. Emo being the commercialization and popification of the former. I don't know where assholes goths came in as emotional hardcore traces roots back to punk. Nor do I care. Fuck your affectations.
Nope, goth is a completely different thing. Try listening to The Cure, Bauhaus or Sisters of Mercy- nothing like Emo.
that definition of easy listening is really Crooning / Lounge AOR iseffectively Easy Listening
Classical Music is the incorrect term given to Art Music (as opposed to Folk and Popular Music). The true Classical Music was from the time period of the 1750s to the early 1820s. You mention Tchaikovsky, yet he would be of the Romantic Music era. Elena Ruehr is a very talented contemporary Art Music composer. Least we forget Philip Glass, Michael Nyman, John Williams, and Danny Elfman, among many other composers who work in film. Even pop stars like Joe Jackson and Paul McCartney have dabbled in Art Music. I think you have forgotten that it was never music for the masses. The common folk of the composers own time periods could not have told you who Bach, Beethoven, or Mozart were, nor have heard thier music.

I'm an 80s kid, and I STILL listen to "new wave"/ Brit pop daily. Passionate, quirky vocals with a dance beat is perfection. Depeche Mode, Erasure, The Cure, and OMD were the soundtracks of my youth. I raised my kids, now grown, to appreciate Blondie, Anything Box, New Order, & The Smiths,and they blast those jams in their own homes. I blame crappy grunge music for displacing new wave music in the 90s.
20 genres that died out but are still loved!
Exactly
I absolutely Love Disco. Soulful, Upbeat, and makes you Feel Good. We need more of that nowadays.
Eurotrance is amazing
This is the beautiful thing about music. It ebbs and flows through the ages. There is literally music for everyone and it is a universal language. It is poetry. It can lift you up, make you move, calm you down, make you feel angry, make you cry, make you laugh....
Music genres that died? ALL OF THE GOOD ONES.
Glad to hear Garage Rock is still ALIVE !
-I listen dead people...
-How often?
-ALL THE TIME
What's kind of funny is whenever a movie, game or TV show is set during a time period these songs are popular they not only get the old songs but sometimes even get new songs in that genre made for those projects
And yet many of these genres are more interesting than the generic dross we listen to these days.
... or DON'T listen to!
Especially Grunge. Nirvana was THE band that got me into "Rock music" in 1999 when I was 12 years old and most Rock enthusiasts agree the 90's was the last great Rock decade.
I hate how everything from the latest big thing to adverts for electronics and food delivery services uses some vile variant of rap/drill/hip hop shite. It's about time it was flushed away like the turd it is.

Max Richter is a 21st century classical (western art music) composer, and when his works are performed it sells out music venues. He has several albums and has over a billion streams of his music online. He has also won numerous awards. He is one of a number of rather popular classical composers. Some others are: Ludovico Einaudi, Hildur Guðnadóttir. Eric Whitacre, Hans Zimmer, Yoko Shimomura, and the prodigy Alma Deutscher who is currently only 19 years old and began composing piano music at age 5. Just because paparazzi don't follow classical composers around doesn't mean the genre is dead. I challenge you to look up some of these composers (they are all here on youtube) if you want to hear some truly beautiful music.
Mathcore deserves an honorable mention. It may not had gotten a ton of airplay but Bands like Converge, Botch, and The Dillinger Escape Plan had made cult followings in that field.
Workers Rock - I can add. Today it does not matter if you are a worker, a driver, a butcher or a designer, you listen to what you like.
You are right with Classical music. Everyone who composes it today, uses computers. Many composers add electric guitars and drums. Some even use sampled classical instruments.
i don't think any music genre here or at all ever truly dies.
they merely rest, for the era in which they shall return to popular mainstream media.
You could have also mentioned -
Glam rock from the 70s (T Rex, Slade, Suzi Quattro)
Funk from the 70s (Parliament)
Psychedelic music from the 60s (many groups including the Beatles, the Doors, Jimi Hendrix)
Motown music from the 60s (Supremes, Temptations, Smokey Robinson)
I’m amazed that Industrial didn’t make this list! Even though I was and still am a huge fan of the genre, I have to admit that it pretty much died shortly after the 90’s.
Good call. I'm 56 and still enjoy the occasional Nitzer Ebb, Front 242, Skinny Puppy, Ministry, or NIN song.
It lives in your mind and your playlist, as it is for others.
Forgot prog rock (progressive). Pink Floyd, Yes, Jethro Tull, Rush, Emerson Lake & Palmer
And glam rock. Queen, David Bowie, Alice Cooper, Elton John, KISS
And, well, hard rock. Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Rolling Stones, Aerosmith
And punk rock. Sex Pistols, Ramones, Green Day, the Clash
I could go on.
My first day in Heaven? Sitting by the pool with Freddie Mercury and David Bowie, Wish You Were Here playing in the background.
Prog rock is still alive and well. It could be called Djent, if you will.
I still listen to eurorap (which has classical pieces into it), eurotrance, as well as dub/ska. Although there are no new artists for the euro- genres, they are still played and actively listened on the local radio station by many.
Technically, the Bee Gees, Donna Summer, and Chic were not "pure" Disco artists, they were artists that mined multiple genres and happened to make some songs that fit into the then contemporary dance music style.
The Bees Gees started out as a pop band in the late sixties, then they got the funk, with Jive Talking and the rest was history.
I thought that Donna Summer was the best female Disco solo artist. I was sad to hear when she passed away from lung cancer at age 65. She was a lifelong nonsmoker.

Eurotrance didn’t really die it evolved into other genres that we get today (mostly hard dance that is mostly prevalent within europe)
Dubstep didn’t really die. Its still on festivals btw, but not so much.
Punk is not dead! It has evolved. No music dies, it simply becomes less popular. I was in a village in northern Thailand a few years banging out Barbie Girl with my daughter on karaoke, as well as a solo rendition of Tragedy (at 2:00 am), while in the Philippines I treated the locals to My Delilah as well as a version of Jolene. In Honduras, we even smashed out a version of Living on a Prayer and Somebody Told Me.
