Goth, Rocker, Raver, Blinger or, er, Minger? Find out which music stereotype you are.

The type of music you like affects more than just a choice of radio station, it’s a way of life.

Blinger

Getting girls to jiggle their cellulite up and down at the camera is not endearing you to anyone, dawg. Now pull up your pants or someone might pop a cap in your ass.

• You wear your baseball cap sideways.

• Sometimes, you lie awake at night and realise your jewellery has given you back pain.

• Fashion must-have: Gold teeth. The shorties love your grill.

• Idol: Fiddy. The Game’s just way too West Coast for your taste.

Indie

You spend a lot of time talking about your feelings and reading your poetry at people. But don’t be fooled, black nail polish does not make you cool.

• You think bands that manage to get actual radio airplay are sellouts.

• When people don’t know their emo from their soft punk you get so angry you could stab them with your guitar pick.
• Fashion must-have: a stripy jumper.

• Idol: the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Wait. Not if someone else has heard of them too.

Minger

It makes you want to cry me a river when people imply that Take That don’t have much talent, doesn’t it? Well they don’t. Now take off those ridiculous little white shorts and build a bridge.

• You tell people you’ve thrown your Backstreet Boys posters away, but you’re actually busy fashioning them into a banner for the reunion tour.

• When the new Girls Aloud album dropped, you cried.

• Fashion must-have: 10 inch platform shoes. And you don’t think they’ve ever gone out of fashion since the Spice Girls pioneered them in 1996.

• Idol: Shane Ward. You want to have his babies. You wrote it on a banner at his last concert but he never called.

Raver

You find yourself having terrifying flashbacks of flickering lights and you can’t seem to remember where your car is. Your clothes are so neon you make other people want to wear sunglasses in the dark too.

• You just can’t seem to sit still.

• You drink Red Bull for breakfast. And you think that’s a healthy vitamin-injected detox.

• Fashion must-have: Sunglasses. Yes, in the club – those lights can get pretty bright and scary.

• Idol: Pete Tong

Goth

Ever wander why people cross the road when they see you approaching? It’s because you have more metal in you than a Transformer, you dumbass. And the tattoo that says “I killed your granny” doesn’t really endear you either.

• People wearing pink make you angry.

• You once got an eye infection from sharing eyeliner.

• Your next tattoo is going to be of a dead cat.

• Fashion must-have: A long black cape.

• Idol: well it’s definitely not Marilyn Manson. Way too mainstream.

Rocker

You spend most of your time playing with your air guitar or trying to emulate The Who by driving your mom’s car into the pool. And, even if you have absolutely no musical talent or in fact even any instruments, you are in a band – it’s probably called Black Sunday.

• You once broke 5 bones moshing.

• You think people who don’t wear skate shoes and studs on their belts are lame.

• Fashion must-have: a groupie.

• Idol: Kurt Cobaine. Duh.
