My God I'm shocked...

[E_man]

OK I'll confess now, I'm not into punk...at all. I like the odd Rancid but really thats as far as it goes.

BUT

I started listening to Gogol Bordello and its some of the best music I've heard, especially in party situations so a big thums up! Gogol Bordello kick arse.

So, as punkers, what music/band have you heard of totally opposite types of music have you liked?

[Anti-Prefix]

I love Mineral and The Gloria Record. I'm open to all types of music, stop being so close-minded bud.

[MasterSander]

I'm also open to all types of music, I also like rock alot, the hives, the beatles (yes that's right), Franz Ferdinand, The Pixies(great music to drum with, very easy, good for beginners), My Chemical Romance... And since they play nearly only techno at parties here in belgium I'm forced to listen to it too, although this I detest, It's just some beat, everyone can make this crap, whereas real music is hard to play if u want it too be good. (Love Drums)

[Tyler]

the beatles (yes that's right)
everyone likes the beatles.

[gastery6]

I don't

[TAND]

How can you not like the beatles?

[Ghostfire3]

everyone likes the beatles.

Not true. I can't stand the beatles.

[Bukowski]

Everyone should like the Beatles.

People who limit themselves to one genre of music and disregard genres without even attempting to get into them are idiots.

true!
i also like even some good hiphop
if you like hiphop with a band in background and some freakin effects and real nice lyrics you schould relly check out the warsaw pac

great g7 band!

[Anti-Prefix]

Everyone should like the Beatles.

No, everyone can like what they please. Stop being incriminating and trying to scrutinize other people's opinions. You honestly are appearing to be very lame, and I know you're not, so stop acting like it.

[Brain Toad]

Everyone should at least reconize the Beatles for what they did for music. Thinking they 'suck' is going too far and s'hitting on the contributions they made to all of rock and roll. I'll never force anyone to like anything, but I find it hard not to love the Fab Four.

[Rootsradical]

I think System of a Down is really good, but I'm not really a fan of heavy metal.

[jonny no-name]

my brother listens to techo stuff(although i dobut that is really what is clasified as that is wiat is sounds like to me)like cats rape dogs, and the faint. its starting to rub off on me

[Ghostfire3]

No. Not everyone should like the Beatles. And I have heard many of their songs because my dad and some of my friends like them, so it's not like I'm just judging them and saying I don't like them because of their musical genre. I just simply don't like them.

[AaronNi]

Good example is my love of noise rock bands such as The Hospitals and their opposite being the sappy pop of James Kochalka Superstar. Just dont pigeonhole youself in one type of music.

Hey... are you from London On. By any chance?

Rush are awesome. I like Slayer but I'm not really a fan of metal.

[fatwreckpunk]

[obese_breasts]

I don't love the Ramones.

[fatwreckpunk]

fair enough, perhaps they dont then

[FunknPunk]

i like/love techno, house, ambient stuff... love classical music.... i love punk... love singer/songwriter stuff... love jazz.... the only things i dont like are modern country, pop divas, and well, the beatles....

[Gnarmageddon]

I listen to just about everything but country.

[asdf]

I'm convinced that I could like one or two band, groups, persons from any genre. I like to dabble.

Infact, punk is one of those genres to me. I don't listen to very much of it, but what I listen to I love.

[Ross]

NWA. Can't help lovin' it, despite my punk tastes :(

[coheneran]

^ NWA kick white devil booty, as do public Enemy. I also love Kraftwerk. Everyone loves Kraftwerk, even if they hate techno.

Gogol Bordello is hilarious.

Then you're missing out on some wonderful music.

Big Bad John has to be the funniest country/western song I've ever heard. Here (England) some bank or insurance firm used it for an extremely annoying advert, but they changed the words to Little Tiny Bill and the background vocs go "Lil Biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiill, lil Biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiil" and then he goes "Lil tiny Bill". It's so ANNOYING!

"Everyone likes The Beatles." -Tyler
Although I recognise that music wouldn't be half of what it is today without them, I find their repetitiveness repulsive. Hasn't anyone noticed how they rhyme the same words over, and over in different songs? I understand that things were simpler back then, but it's like being tortured by Nazis.

But that's just my oppinion. Some people really love them. Some people love punk music. Some country, or pop. I think it has something to do with how you're accepted by others, and how you react to it now. Seeing as punks are usually outcasts of society, and pop-tarts are avidly accepted because they never do anything to break the mold. The anguish causes you to look for something more theraputic than "I love you" music, and thus, you are labeled, and begin to hate those who have it easier than you by just doing as they're expected.

You get outcasts from every walk of life and every musical genre (isn't weird how nowadays we use music to define someone without even thinking about it?), but I though punk was about being yourself and not taking sh'it about who you are and putting yourself down because someone else (or the majority of elses) is of a different opinion. That's why I'm happy to consider myself a punk without having dyed hair and a mohican, and being able to admit I like something that's decidedly 'unpunk', and why I can still be different without having to conform to the punk look, scene and usual beliefs, political and otherwise. Apart from the 'being yourself' belief, that's what punk is to me.

Man, you don't know what you're talkin' about, woman. In your location bitty under your avatar I mean. Texas kicks bottom. You guys raised amongst you Christ returned, Buddha incarnate, Muhammed rebirthed. He tried to spread the message, he DID spread the message, but he was misunderstood in his native America, and adored and loved in Britain. He was THE guy of the 20th century. He was the one who could have changed it all, if only we'd have listened to him, and if only he hadn't had his untimely death. Though it is fitting he died so young, like he preached. Still don't know who I'm talking about?

Defining people by music is what I do all the time. If it becomes such a big part of your life its the only way you think.

[Rise Me Up]

Well, I like a lot of 'totally opposite' stuff;

John Lennon
I d/led an album of his and I love it.

Boston
You heard me. I do indeed mean the 80's pop band.

Taco
His version of "Puttin' on the Ritz" is amazing.

KISS
They are the opposite of punk. I have tons of memoribilia and I like them a lot.

Bloodhound Gang
Their first CD is great. I love the Vagina Song.

Bloodhound are hilarious and their music's great as well, but their sound gets repetitive after a while and I have to take a break. They are touring again, by the way, try and catch them somewhere, they're meant to be good live.

[Miss Knottinotsy]

Marilyn Manson, and The Kaiser Chiefs. That's every stretch of the word opposites, right dere.

[coheneran]

No, Marylin Manson and Marylin Monroe would be a longer stretch. And I like them both, though I preffer Monroe. I like Manson's videos though.

[Brain Toad]

So the actual topic of this thread is oppisites that you listen to compared to your main genre.. I just got that now.

If you were going to put me as a punk listener, then all the classic rock I enjoy goes in there (Beatles, Doors, Steve Miller Band, AC/DC), but you could just as easily put me a classic rock listener and all the punk I listen to is oppisite. My music tastes vary enough that there is really no oppisite to what I usually listen to, because I'll usually listen to that too.

I don't think Monroe made music. But I guess if you wanted real opposites you'd compare people from different businesses. Like Fred Durst, and Courtney Love! ;)

I'm going to visit England in a few years, but I think the only place I'm going to is London since I know my way around, disturbingly enough. I don't know the street names or anything, but I played ... I can't believe this is happening. Complete brainfart! Well, anyway. It ends with Black Monday.

Have you ever seen Babyshambles/The Libertines live?

I was gonna see Babyshambles in Leeds, but I'd rather have seen NoFX, so I did. The Libertines broke up didn't they? And Finchley is in London, right near Camden. Contact me if you ever don't have a punk place to hang out in. There's a supposedly sweet squat up Manor House and the rastafarian one in St. Agnes' Place. And the Freedom Bookshop ofcourse, Anarchist federation meetings on thursdays :thumbs:.

[Miss Knottinotsy]

The Libertines have broken up, and gotten together so many times! I don't really blame you for not wanting to see them. They've been letting fans down left, and right. I used to be absolutely infatuated with Pete, but he's really been in a downward spiral for the past years. It's silly, but I wish Pete, and Carl never fought so things could be just like they used to be.
I'm a little too emotional over them..

I just planned to do a lot of wandering in England, Ireland, and Germany, which would probably get me, and my friends maimed. I wanted to see some shows, but I have no idea how I'll find out what's going on.

check out Meandfiddler.com or .co.uk or something like that. and if you're in Ireland, see if you can make it to Rossport. There's a permanent activist anti-Shell camp there, as Shell are doing some horrible thinsg there. Google Shell Hell or Rossport Five to find out more stuff about it.

[Miss Knottinotsy]

Thanks very much! But is the Shell deal very dangerous? My friend's parents hold me responsible for their lives.

I apologise for getting so off topic, but do you go to plays at all? If so, which theatres?

I have to go now. My back is is agony, and I haven't eaten since 8 o'clock this morning. You can IM me sometime if you like, coheneren.

Hah, i've checked out the classical scene, if you're speaking of classic rock. I do not like Led Zep, Beatles, The Doors, just not for me, but I appriciate their talent, and understand why people who listen to them, enjoy listening to those bands.

Yeeeaahh :D

Wasn't he the deaf one who held a stick between his teeth and rested it on top of the piano which he played so he could "hear" the vibrations?

I don't know if he did the stick thing (which works), but he did have a bunh of those ear horns he'd put on the piano and keep pounding on a key until he could hear it, which was impossible in his later years. They found one of his old pianos and the ivory on the keys was worn away from his pounding.

[skavid]

No, that was Ray Charles:rolleyes:.
Ray Charles was blind, not deaf. I don't know if Beethoven used the stick thing, but he was awesome.

[Sebek]

If your just going for what I like outside of the general Punk (including subgenres) genre, it would be Metal. I have just as big a collection of Metal as I do Punk, but I also like a large range of styles, these are just my main two. I'd say within the Metal genre about 60-70% of it is Death Metal.

[ThisUserIsAPipebomb]

I love Tool. I just can not stop loving Tool.

Also, Allanis Morisette. Awesome.

[coheneran]

Ray Charles was blind, not deaf. I don't know if Beethoven used the stick thing, but he was awesome.

Just a joke. And Beethoven did do the stick thing. Has anyone heard any Natasha Atlas albums? She takes so much inspiration from Pink Floyd, and if she were alive forty years ago, Pink Floyd would have transcended what we call music.

im not a die hard punker neither.i listen to alot of punk music but dont pledge my allegiance to punk music.i like artists like system of a down ,bob dylan(one of the greatest songwriters of all time).pink floyd,nirvana(dont care what anybody says about them) and slayer to name a few.

[TAND]

I'd say I listen to a lot of punk, but nothing like I'm going to be all punk sweet.
I like punk to a certain amount, and ska is a lot better. And since I started playing bass, my musical taste has broadened a lot.

[modern_man]

when you say ska,do you mean authentic ska or the ska /punk bands?i dont know too much about pure ska.the only band i can think of off the top of my head is the specials.that is probably the most well known ska band.and i think one step beyond is another.

[username77]

Beatles.
NWA.
The Squirrel Nut Zippers.
A lot of hardcore, but that's not too surprising.

RAge Against the Machine.
System of a Down.
Old Beastie Boys.

Everyone should at least reconize the Beatles for what they did for music. Thinking they 'suck' is going too far and s'hitting on the contributions they made to all of rock and roll. I'll never force anyone to like anything, but I find it hard not to love the Fab Four.


The Beatles were a big part of the British Invasion, but during that time period any one with a musical instrument and a pretty face could be a star. They just got lucky, in my opinion.=/

[f_unamerican]

Hmm..

Dir en Grey, the Gorillaz, Rammstein, the Rolling Stones, Sublime, and System of a Down all tickle my fancy. I don't really restrict myself to only punk music.

[time bomb]

(from page 3) beethoven wasnt punk, he composed softer, more melodic pieces which appealed more to the mainstream, mozart (his contempory) composed far more upbeat and lively music (eg fleur elise sp.?), which appealed more to the younger audiences, hence he was much more of a punk rocker.

and i like both the dandy warhols and slipknot, but rage against the machine are my favourite band of all time.

Beethoven wrote Fur Elise, moron.

And Beethoven was much more revolutionary then Mozart, despite the styles he was writing, what he wrote was different and new then what everybody else was writing.

Also note the fact after he went deaf and nearly destroyed his paino so he could hear the notes.

[sketchyjoe]

I love punk but am also a massive fan of Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash and Curtis Mayfield.

I also enjoy Woody Guthrie, Hank Williams, Robert Johnson, Jimi Hendrix, Chuck Berry, Gordon Lightfoot, Tom Waits, Public Enemy and large amounts of non-punk music.



Cash and Dylan are punk as **** though. Is there a more pissed-off song thatn Idiot Wind or Positively 4th Street? I don't think so.

I'm also open to all types of music, I also like rock alot, the hives, the beatles (yes that's right), Franz Ferdinand, The Pixies(great music to drum with, very easy, good for beginners), My Chemical Romance... And since they play nearly only techno at parties here in belgium I'm forced to listen to it too, although this I detest, It's just some beat, everyone can make this crap, whereas real music is hard to play if u want it too be good. (Love Drums)

Omg rebel for saying techno isn't music lol can't spell crap without rap lol.

Anyway, i listen to everything.

[DaveToopes]

No problem.

Since this is pretty much a modern-day confession thread, I'll just say that I like TOOL.

And you watch damned fine anime, judging by your user name. Man the music in "Helsing" is good.

[TakeWarning]

I'm really getting into metal lately. Metallica, Slayer, Mastodon, Dream Theater etc.

You heard "Dead Skin Mask" by Slayer? It's their best song by miles and miles hey, it's awesome.

[TakeWarning]

I'm pretty sure it can't top Raining blood.

Man on the tour for Reign In Blood, they played that song last and had the sprinkler systems in the venues that had them rain red-dyed water on the crowd. F'uck me that would have been cool.
