Retro video game soundtracks are my guilty pleasure; especially the Genesis. Thunder Force IV, Batman, SOR, Ecco the Dolphin, Shinobi, Zero WIng, Elemental Master, Gaiares. Childhood memories!

Its like 16 bit Melodic Thrash Metal
My love for the Genesis probably foreshadowed my love for the prog rock band Genesis.
I'd also add Japanese Arrange music (covers of compositions from Japanese media) but since it is like a cross between Melodic Death Metal and Power Metal without vocals, it is 100% Heavy Metal.

Hi Wolfgang A. Mozart!
I enjoy many types of music aside metal, like Mexican Regional Music, Rap, Spanish Rock, Alternative Rock, and Reggaeton! I don't consider it guilty pleasure, but sure something to have variety in my musical tastes. Here's a example of what I listen to when I don't listen to metal.
Los Tucanes de Tijuana
Tito El Bambino (early material)
Nirvana
Crunchy Black
Michael Jackson
Baby Boy Da Prince
Dinosaur Jr.
Hector El Father
Panda
Ludacris
Valentin Elizalde
Banda El Recodo
Jaguares
Arkangel
Alesana
THANK YOU WOLFGANG A. MOZART!

-in flames
-hammerfall
-metallica
-iron maiden
-alter bridge
My **** thats not metal that i listen to is rock like guns n roses, queens of the stone age etc and indie like violent soho, wavves, dune rats etc i like indie because its still proper music unlike all this gay electro **** and at least with indie, people who arent into it wont have those annoying biases they have about metal, youd be surprised indie is pretty good but im not talking about wombats and all that **** i mean garage/ post grunge/ punky ****

Linkin Park. As a person who listens to most metal genres (Power, thrash, death, black, etc) I somehow like jamming to Linkin Park. I think that's the only band though. Sometimes I listen to Eminem, though. But its not like I'm a big fan or whatever.

Why are non metal bands considered a "guilty pleasure"? Metalheads can listen to whatever they want.
