@Kdavis6812 Genre stations, such as "Today's Hits" or "Classic Metal," are stations created and curated by Pandora, and they often include more mainstream artists and songs.
As an alternative, we recommend creating your own station, using an artist or song that you think best represents a particular genre. Then use Thumbs to help guide the station you are trying to create.
Additionally, you may Add Variety to the station you create, in order to include other artists or songs you'd like to influence your station.
Keep in mind, each seed you add will inspire hundreds of other songs, so a little variety goes a long way. If you don't like the direction your station is headed, you can always edit your station seeds and Thumbs through the Station Details.
That said, when you're listening from a computer or mobile device you can access Pandora Modes to customize your station experience. You can pick different modes like Crowd Faves, Discovery and Deep Cuts. Let me know if you'd like more information about that.
Hope this is helpful. Thanks for being a part of the community!

Who would even come close to thinking those bands are ClassicMetal. I consider it an exclusive few. Bands like Megadeth, Black Sabbath(Ozzy), Anthrax, Metallica. 2 or 3 tunes from Quiet Riot, and to a softer degree, Def Leppard, Van Halen. Good stuff, good times
