Title is worded a little weird, I’m not necessarily asking if there are any styles that sound better on vinyl compared to digital, are there any genres that have sounds / instruments that are harder to replicate on vinyl vs another genre?

Anything noisy with lots of distortion to mask the scratches, pops and rumble.
I found it irritating to try listening to quiet passages in orchestral music with all the associated vinyl record noise. I found that when I made recordings from the vinyl, it worked best to drip distilled water ahead of the needle to quiet down the noise to the lowest possible extent. Also killed the static in the winter months.
For some people, the nostalgia or uniqueness of using analog pressings overcomes any issues with background noise - and for them, I guess, anything is fine.
