Possibly the single most important thing in the (subjective) evaluation of music is raucousness. I've noticed that most people will listen either only to raucous music or only to non-raucous music. The two groups don't overlap much. Death metal is the most raucous, easy listening (do they still call it that?) with lush strings the least.
It's possible to add or subtract some of the raucousness from music. It centers around 1000 Hertz. Reduce that and what one hears is less raucous, boost for more. This effect is limited but there.
European classical music is non-raucous, with the exception of some violin soloists or Penderecki symphonies.
