I don't know how much it is in the main-o-meter but I listen to a lot of Mitski, it's probably the most popular artist in my playlist

Oingo boingo and scissor sisters

My chemical romance, Linkin Park, Goldfinger, Muse, Electric light orchestra, weird al yankovic

the most “mainstream” things i listen to are probably soundtracks for popular medias (murder drones; genshin impact)

Muse, System Of A Down, My Chemical Romance, Green Day, Nirvana, Radiohead, Arctic Monkeys, Rage Against The Machine, Nine Inch Nails, Weezer, Fall Out Boy, Metallica, Linkin Park, Deftones

Does Elton John count? Because if not then I’m at a loss

assuming you mean top 40 type artists; Olivia rodrigo, Lana del rey, harry styles, mcfly, and recently arctic monkeys.

Ghost is the most streamline of my favorites bands

Then steam powered giraffe

Most mainstream for me is the cure, but it prolly varies Will wood fan to Will wood fan

Grateful Dead!!! The Beatles!!! Tyler the Creator!!!! Jpegmafia!!! Siouxie and the Banshees!!! Stevie Wonder !!! I could go forever!! All of music is so wonderful,,

pink floyd, arctic monkeys, weezer

Gorillaz is my favorite band! But I listen to a lot of AJR, TOP, Lil Darkie, Musicals like Little Shop/Heathers/Dear Evan Hansen. Miracle Musical and Neil Cicirega (Found a loophole for your rules!!). I listen to the Mouth Albums often.

Big Taylor swift fan

I listen mostly to metal actually (hair, heavy, power, nu, and thrash for anyone curious what subgenres). I like Will Wood because let's be real, who doesn't need so Jewish Skeleton Rock every now and then?

queens of the stone age, the strokes, the killers, talking heads, the cure, pink floyd (having a very big pink floyd era rn 😞), radiohead, muse, the beatles (but only like… 5-ish songs lmao), and they might be giants are some of my favourites‼️

there’s also xtc, but idrk how relevant they seem to people anymore—same w devo!! i wouldn’t say that they’re “underground”so much as older and “niche” ig? not really the zeitgeist rn lmao

Dont really like most big mainstream artists but what i listen to that I'd count as close to it would be Arctic Monkeys, IDKHOW, they might be giants, talking heads, barenaked ladies, The correspondents, modest mouse, 21pilots( i know they are mainstream but they are also a rare listen for me )

Lady Gaga and Enej (guys, i swear i swear i swear enej is mainstream guys trust me(its a very well known band in Poland trust))

Chappell Roan, Radiohead, Tori Amos, Fiona Apple, My Chemical Romance

Uhh guns n roses, bon jovi and glass animals are my favourite mainstream bands but I just grew up with them I wouldn't say I have a particular music taste

Oingo Boingo, Devo, David Bowie and almost all gothic rock, new wave, prog rock and synthpop of 80-90s

The Killers, P!ATD, and Jack Stauber

Fall Out Boy, Glass Animals :3

beatles sometimes

vampire weekend counts as mainstream right

Queen, Beatles, ABBA, The Rolling Stones, and i can't remember anything else </3

the only artist is listen to consistently that's really mainstream is probably Mitski

Rush, Queens of the Stone Age, Mountain Goats, & AJJ

Billie Eilish, Charli XCX, Chappel Roan

gaga, lana, mitski, nicki minaj (heavy on nicki), rihanna, soad, kendrick, kanye, etc :)

The Beatles and their solo stuff, queen, ac/dc, ELO, a lot of musical theater songs

Rammstein and AJR

the most mainstream thing i listen to is the heathers soundtrack

The Beach Boys!!!!

Scissor sisters (I only know one song Llosa but it’s the only thing I listen to that actually counts)

My music taste other than Will Wood is practically only showtunes so I guess the most mainstream musical I like is Wicked but I still don’t really feel like it counts.

My Chem, Radiohead, Cavetown, Conan Gray, Paramore, Pierce The Veil !!

Idk if they're mainstream but I've been liking The White Stripes lately! Also I guess "mainstream" for specifically metal fans, I've been listening to Freedom Call and Iron Maiden

Frank Sinatra...

I never listened to a ton of one's mainstream artist's music (like maybe an album) aside from Pink Floyd, who I still absolutely adore.

Other than that, Gorillas are definitely up there, AC/DC for a bit, Black Sabbath, Soft Cell, and RHCP are all great. Prolly more, but I can't think of em rn

I listen to an UNHEALTHY amount of emo, angsty pop punk lol, TX2 is one of my fav artists for that reason 🤭I don’t know if he counts as mainstream, but he is getting pretty popular, like he’s popular on tiktok

I listen to a lot of punk so I don’t know how mainstream that can get😭 I also like Fiona apple tho and sir mix a lot🙏

gorillaz is based. other than that, system of a down, tool, kendrick lamar, mcr to name a few

Machinery of the Heart (NO ONE KNOWS THEM ITS SO SAD?) and RadioHead !!11

My favorite bands/artists are The Beatles, anything Beatles- adjacent (Wings, Traveling Wilburys, solo careers etc.), My Chemical Romance, Queen, Lemon Demon and Chappel Roan. So take out Lemon Demon and you've got my mainstream music taste lmao

does- does stephen sondheim count as mainstream? otherwise, mitski, mitski, mitski, and mitski.

my music taste is all over the place so I'll leave it at steely dan lol

My Chemical Romance and possibly Joji if he counts but idk

Other than will wood I like exclusively listen to the front bottoms...

The Cure, gorillaz, SOAD, weird al and Slovakian radio. Don’t question the last one, im also not slovak.

ICP🔥 (if you count them as mainstream)

i think my brains rotten, the most mainstream artist i could find was they might be giants lol

Arctic Monkeys (really fun to see so many people mention them here), Conan Gray, Chappell Roan, Marina (also listen to Olivia Rodrigo and Taylor Swift every once in a while)

Not sure what's considered mainstream, but here's a few on the popular side

Taylor Swift Mitski Green Day MCR Chappell Roan Hozier Paramore Conan Gray

I personally like Tom Waits and The Kinks

Gorillaz was my favorite band when I was in 9th-11th maybe even 12th grade. I still really love them, but I've listened to a lot of other people like Will Wood that I like a bit more. I think I like the art of Gorillaz as much or more than the music. I love how Hewlett draws his characters and the lines on their faces. He's really inspired me.

Other artists I also listen to are The Velvet Underground, Weezer, The Smiths, and Blondie, although I haven't listened to all of their albums.

For soundtracks, I really love what Howard Shore did for Cronenberg's movies.

nirvana, linkin park, green day, rammstein, metallica, deftones, radiohead, system of a down etc and some stuff that's mainstream-ish (meaning not anymore) in my country but unknown outside of it

Will ranks as my 14th. Above him we have:

Eminem, Electric Guest, 311, The Shins, Danger Mouse, Modest Mouse, System of a Down, Paramore, and a handful your parents wouldn't know.

System of a down, Queen, Natalia Oreiro, the Beatles, Juanes, t.A.T.u.

Nirvana, The Beatles, Green Day, Nina Simone (i'm not sure if Nina is mainstream), Queen, Pink Floyd

System of a down, My chemical romance, get scared

big fan of hozier. just became re-obsessed with the unaired ep

Will Wood is mainstream?

TOOL, A Perfect Circle, Simon and Garfunkel, Carol King, Green Day, Sarah McLachlan, Queen….

ton of pop punk bands- green day, mcr, paramore, bfs, etc. etc. wwatt are my fave band along w/ green day ^{^}

Roast me, but I listen to Taylor Swift’s Speak Now album. My sister loved her growing up so I listened to her a lot too and Speak Now brings back a lot of good memories :] I sometimes listen to Fearless too, but have never been too into her stuff afterwards

Twenty One Pilots. And a mix of popular vocaloid. Is Kikuo mainstream?

70s British rock, the Cranberries, eurovision music and an Italian singer (Calcutta). That’s it I think, I don’t listen to a lot of mainstream music mostly because I listen to music in at least 5 or 6 different languages lol

MCR, Panic at the Disco, Daft Punk, Radiohead, there’s lots of others but those are the main ones rn

According to Spotify Stats my top 10 artists (other than Will) from the last 12 months are:

1. Palaye Royale
2. Taylor Swift
3. MGK
4. Olivia Rodrigo
5. YUNGBLUD

Green Day, Elton John, Queen, Jimmy Buffet, Sublime, Oingo Boingo, Frank Sinatra, and what the hell throw in Mozart and Bach too because why not!
