Hate:
Britney, Pop

Like:
Just about everything else, from Metallica to Opera to Punk [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Downunda · 04-09-2002, 06:44 PM

I like listening to a broad range of music, from Limp Biscuit to Ministry to Dre to Chilli Peppers to Korn to All Stars to Check This Out to... the list goes on [img]smile.gif[/img]

- The only music genres that I have never been able to get into would be country and pop (those fabricated bands just don't work

)

I would never diss someone on the type of music they liked so long as they really did like it rather than just going with the flow, (as Talthyr has posted previously

)

BTW has anyone else noticed that Britanys breasts are shrinking?

Thoran · 04-09-2002, 07:09 PM

I listen to almost everything out there... however I have high expectations of quality, and 99% of pop bands just don't measure up.

My Favorites (by Frequency of play) of late:
Disturbed, POD, Bob Dylan, Pink Floyd, Blink 182, Santana, Eric Clapton, Bob Marley, Alice in Chains, Chris Isaak, Tracy Chapman, Queen, Slipknot, Powerman 5000, Stevie Ray Vaughn.

I think that most of the people who hate Country Music have yet to hear GOOD Country Music. Country is just as susceptable to the "POP Music" phenomena as Rock. There's almost NO modern country that's worth a damn (imo [img]smile.gif[/img] ), but if you watch "Brother, where art thou" and don't find yourself getting caught up in some of the Excellent bluegrass that fills that movie from get to go... well THEN you can say that you really don't like country.

I must admit that I'm a Country Boy... and I still regularly listen to John Denver (a bit folkish but still country imo), Hank Williams Sr., Patsy Cline, Kitty Wells, Willie Nelson, and OF COURSE... Johnny Cash.

"All the pop music sucks. Why? Because its fake. All of it, its so fake. Very few of them write there own songs, very few of them make up there own caraogrophy, very few of them have...ehm..real body parts I guess would be a fitting term.They dont play any intruments, its crap. Its all so manufactured. And of course no one well like Brintet Spears in 3 or 4 years."

Totally agree with all this.

"Other bands I dont like include: All the 'punk' crap, Sum 41, Blink182 ect. Why? Because its not punk! Its ridducluse to call it that. Come on, thats not punk. I dont like punk music that much, not the harcore stuff anyway. The Ramones (The orginal punk band) are cool, and the Sex Pistols had it right. They wear reblious, yet they didnt take it too far to be anoyying with it."

Finally, another person who knows the difference between proper punk and this new type which I give a different name, though I probably shouldn't say here.

"Also another "band" I hate, ICP. I hate those guys. Hate hate hate, there so stupid. There music has very little meaning, I dont I just hate them. I could go deeper into but I am sure it would offend some people here."

I'm glad I haven't heard of them if they're as bad as you say they are.

"As far as bands I do like? Pearl Jam, Metallica, Alice in Chains, MegaDeth, Black Sabbath, Ozzy,Iron maiden, this list goes on..They had talent, they wear good song writers, great musicians, there music ment somthing. It had feeling, meaning. Notice all those are old bands. I like very few new bands. Disturbed are good. Static X can be ok some of the time. Not too many new bands I like."

Again, I agree, for a start, although I say it all the time, Metallica are my favourite metal band (and don't let anyone tell you they're heavy metal!!!) (Well, I like those apart from Disturbed, don't really like them)
Not as keen on MegaDeth as I am on Metallica, but that would be hard.

Most of the music I like is also old ones, and the ones you put, like slayer, maiden, sabbath, but you forgot one from a little earlier than maiden's real widespread popularity, and when Sabbath were just starting out with someone basement tracks.... Deep Purple... just sit back and listen to the kickass tune Into the Fire... classic.
Then there's Led Zeppelin of course.
You could say I'm into the real golden oldies.
Agree on the new bands thing too, I'll give a brief analysis.

Linkin Park- I don't care how good people say Chester's voice is, I don't like their music, and now their music has become hip-hop, also IMO they are a boy band.
Static X- I suppose they *are* better than LP and that lot.
Sum 41- I'm not even going to start, my hatred for them is too deep for words.
Blink 182- Their music is lame and childish, as are their weak lyrics, who wants to hear about their relations with a dog???
It goes on.

However, I do like some slightly newer bands, like SOAD (their first, self-entitled album is better IMO than Toxicity though) and the Deftones are alright.
I also like some more bands from before the rise of accursed Nu-Metal, such as Pantera, some Fear Factory, Sepultura, *OLD* machine head, for example the song Davidian, their new stuff is Nu-Metal rubbish frankly.

There rant off.

P.S And MagiK!! For once we agree on some things, (apart from Foreigner... and I haven't heard music by Kansas) the old bands are classic, I just wish I could've been there at the maiden tour for Clive.

I understand that its your opinion to not like ICP....... * puts SANE-ITY boosters and ANGER-MANAGEMENT in heavily into veins* but like tell it to their over 1,000 000 fans.

Talthyr Malkaviel · 04-09-2002, 08:21 PM

Ohhh! ICP as in Insane clown posse, no I don't really like them, but hey, each to his own.

Tiamat · 04-09-2002, 08:23 PM

I am screening Twizted and Dark Lotus (ICP's friends in the music business) to see if their good.

Well **** me sideways, we actually agree on something! As it happens I'm listening to Ozzy right at this moment [img]tongue.gif[/img] And I have a great speaker system on my PC, the floor's rattling [img]tongue.gif[/img]

But even though it was over a decade before I was born... one of my favourite s have to be Deep Purple... absolutely classic band that!

Well if we're talking Sabbath, then Paranoid is my favorite album - but the best track is War Pigs [img]tongue.gif[/img] I like Paranoid, but I've heard it too many times - the band I used to be in did a cover of it. As far as Ozzy goes, Crazy Train does it for me

I like Deep Purple too, also Rainbow, Maiden, Metallica, Megadeth, Judas Priest... seems a lot of people here have similar musical tastes - I don't meet many people in RL who are into metal, except my parents.

BTW, how old are you Talthyr?
