Too many genres.

Over the past week and a half I decided to update and organize all the music on my computer. Make sure spellings are correct, release year, record label, etc. As well as labeling the correct genre. After being halfway through "C" I already have added about 20 new genre. Why can't metal, just be metal. Is a band going to be that upset that I don't refer to their music as Atmospheric Post Blacked Sludge. Should I go back and just label everything as metal, or continue and see how many ridiculous genres.

  • I have to roll my eyes at the idiosyncratic ones like "ithyphallic metal", and I place less importance on theme-based ones like Viking Metal, but I think most genres are pretty varied like that if you get into them enough.
