What animals do you think best symbolize certain musical genres? For example, what animal do you think would best represent, say Country-Western or Industrial or Ska? Feel free to go crazy on this one. Oh, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

For hard rock and metal there's such a wealth of options that you could get pretty specific with the different subcategories to determine whether the mascot should be a shark or a dinosaur or Valais blacknose sheep or Lemmy.

don't know about 'mascot' but the cat definitely seemed to be a symbol for current 93 and england's hidden reverse

Reggaeton should be some sort of dog considering “perreo” is the signature dance.

Techno - a wide eyed nocturnal animal, like a trash panda or a skunk.

You'd think black metal was a crow.

Pop is sort of an everything goes genre... maybe a chameleon... or a peacock... or some parasitic species.

Delta blues would be a wrinkly dog breed, like a blood hound or mastiff. Maybe like a dogue de bordeaux for Chicago blues.
