Articles/ papers / dissertations about defining music genres?

Hi everyone,

Does anyone have any links at all to articles etc about music genres and how different people class the same piece of music as different genres etc.

I've googled but only found articles and dissertations about how a computer could be used recognise tracks and their genre etc

thanks for any help in finding articles discussing classifying music into genres.

A good starting point would be the band My Chemical Romance since so many people think of them in different genres.

lol, I'll look into that thanks.

Anyone else, no?
