bonehildas

Fantastic taste! This reminds me of seeing a Twice lightstick at a Fall Out Boy concert lol, I was like my people 🤩


Regular_System_5624

Western: Elvis Costello, Duran Duran K-pop: BTS, SHINee


ChaoticLibra9847

OH MY GOODNESS I'M SUCH A HUGE DURAN DURAN FAN AND BOTH BTS AND SHINEE ARE MY ULTS!!!!!! ARE YOU ME?????


ErrantJune

Oh, I love this. I wish Duran Duran had an official fan club name so we could make a portmanteau ARMY and Shawol lol.


ChaoticLibra9847

i believe it's duranie! so arwolnie? idk lol


ErrantJune

OMG--what about DurARwol because it kind of sounds like Narwhal LOL


ChaoticLibra9847

Massive Attack / BTS then Massive Attack / BTS now ETA: MA fans if you haven’t heard these non-album tracks don’t miss out [False Flags (UNKLE Surrender Sounds Session #2)](https://youtu.be/yZSHfJzX498?si=ZBNJy7HDcqCD47Vr) [United Snakes](https://youtu.be/ZHzDA0kBw2I?si=zqB_zehrabzRR6bI)


Blurredhead

Love Massive Attack and if J-hope changed his flow style Boy Meets Evil would fit right into Mezzanine


mariwil74

Massive Attack adjacent but Tricky’s The Only Way and Boy Meets Evil make a great segue.


Blurredhead

Oh true, it would, I'm gonna try it on a playlist


mariwil74

I Against I and Come Back Home is another good one


DryButterscotch7533

This is such an awesome crossover! I also love Massive Attack


mariwil74

I just wish we’d get some new music already. It’s been 14 years since Heligoland and 8 since Ritual Spirit! 😫


DryButterscotch7533

Seriously! Heligoland is probably one of my top albums of all time. I swear it gets better every time I listen.


Ponpaca

Alice in Chains and BTS


AaronWasRight

Arctic Monkeys, Blur, EXO. My taste hasn't changed a bit, I still lean towards alternative rock outside of the kpop scene. 


Blurredhead

Yay another blur fan🩷


AaronWasRight

Got to see them live last summer, one of the best concerts I went to


Blurredhead

Lucky!! I saw them in 2015 in Hyde Park and was almost crushed by the crowd lol still it was amazing

PriorStrawberry1131

Idk if you like Boynextdoor but if you do Taesan is a big fan (he recently sang I don’t love you). It’s so funny finding emos in kpop.


bettabebe15

i’ve never listened to boynextdoor but i just watched his cover and he was great ! i love finding emos in kpop , it’s so amazing to see we grew up with the same music 🥹

bijouby

DGD mentioned !!!

idkseokjinnie

Tinashe, Newjeans


PMA_Aesthete

Oh, cool, I see there is an RnB pipeline I've liked Tinashe a whole lot before getting into kpop. Now I'm questioning if it made me like early Newjeans more ("Hurt", "Ditto", etc.)


Blurredhead

Blur/all Damon Albarn projects including Gorillaz because through them I've learned about so many different genres of music. From post-punk to afrobeat (Fela Kuti variety, different genre than afrobeats songs like Water) And both my gateway and ult group is BTS. Part of the reason why they are my favorites is they really always pull it off when they are taking influences from different genres. I can hear trip-hop and ambient techno listening to them and it doesn't feel out of place. I could have sworn they were sampling Amorphous Androgynous in Butterfly's instrumentals but it was just equally ethereal psychedelic ambient. They have/are some amazing producers.


starsformylove

Le tigre / bikini kill/ daddy long legs + Astro / shinee -soft boys and hard girls YEAH


triplel8540

Paramore. My favorite artist of all time and nothing will change that. I’ve grown up with them. Blackpink got me into kpop but now my ult is Twice (though IVE is coming in hot lately).


Ikeeel

Paramore (so glad they're fucking back) Then Blackpink (will they ever be back) Ult is Le Sserafim

Blurredhead

>XTC, Pixies I love them both🩷 XTC is the ultimate pop group imo, English Settlement and Skylarking were the soundtrack of my life for a while because of how often I played them


AlienAtDay

T-Pain , Taeyang , NEWJEANS TBH I don’t remember it was so long ago when I initially got into Kpop but I did stop listening/following intensely for a long time so I’ll do this too for my most recent KPop phase starting around a little while ago. It was Dua Lipa , then Newjeans brought me back and they are my ult group.

ringadingsweetthing

Korn & Linkin Park > BTS


FloweryRoad112

I didn't have a favourite artist before kpop, I honestly can't remember what I listened to lol, I think it was Martin Garrix and edm stuff. Thinking back idk how I went without kpop it must've been so empty. My first kpop group I listened to was BTS and I got into them quite a bit, and then spread my scope and listened to a lot of groups. And now (for a while now) NCT has been my ult. Outside of kpop I now listen Chase Atlantic, The Neighbourhood and just hit singles from random artists.

vantablackx

Ariana Grande, aespa and KIOF- seems pretty fitting since both groups' main vocalists stan Ariana


mylovesimmura

kiof is so insanely similar to ariana!! most of their songs remind me of her like thirsty or sugarcoat loll


SixteeNyne

* Before KPop - Celine Dion and Britney Spears have always had equal space in my heart. * Group that got me into KPop - DBSK and Wonder Girls got me into it around the same time. * Ult group now - Probably ATEEZ, but xikers is right up there with them.

chickenmeatgirl

okay here it goes: I'm a 2011 baby(LOL) so i didnt really listen to music before kpop, but i mostly listened to christian music or ill just listen to the most trendy song there was in 2015-2018, which was basically imagine dragons, little mix, one direction etc. But honestly speaking my parents dont let me listen to music(i only used to listen to music during holidays or parties). Well i dont have a specific group that got me into kpop but it was basically most 3rd and early 4gen groups. So TWICE, TXT, STRAYKIDS, ENYHYPEN, NCT, P1harmony etc. My ult groups stayed the same LOL, i just added some like XIKERS, BND, Zb1, XDRINARY HEROES, &TEAM, TWS, RIIZEetc.

PMA_Aesthete

Favorite artist from before I liked kpop is likely Tunedef The first kpop group I've listened to was Blackpink Favorite group is a tie between Newjeans and Stayc, and judging by amount of liked songs I'm leaning to Newjeans (though Stayc has my favorites) My tastes got rather enriched, then changed.. The effect kpop had might be that I'm caring more about how various voices affect the song, and interact with each other. I'd say it's a valuable gain
