I can't remember if you recommended that I listen to Negativland earlier in the thread or if someone like Chris did, but I have one of their albums. I'll check it out, thanks.

Alex, you might prefer the more post-punk side of neofolk as a starting point so I would suggest checking out some early Death In June such as [i]Burial[/i] or [i]The Guilty Have No Pride[/i].

I really like Boyd Rice's Black Album

I don't like Boyd Rice's "solo" stuff tbh

idk all his stuff I have heard is pretty terrible in a way, that is why I like it most of the time

If it's terrible why do you like it?

:confused:

because its terrible in a Boyd Rice way, as opposed to just boring

I don't get that ideology tbh

if its terrible I just don't listen to it, but idk, that's me.

<3 your avatar btw, boston terrier's ftw!

well, idk. measuring terrible to me isn't just labeling something not worth my time and leaving it at that, it gets [i]complicated[/i] man.

googly eyes won me over :D

I was going to buy one of those but it was kinda expensive and a girl at work gave me a puppy for free so yeah

might buy one in a couple of years, they are so coooooool

Music can be terrible and still appealing, depending on how you define terrible.

I mean I can see some one saying Monte Cazazza is terrible but its pretty fun to listen to.

And bad rap can be a good time too

You see, I just don't understand all of that. For me terrible is something I don't like. If I like it it's not terrible/bad.

I have no pretentions of good taste anymore.

Strong words Mr. Haz.

I like something that leaves an impact. I'd rather listen to Justin Timberlake than Metallica for example. JT irritates me, Metallica is mindless.

JT is great.

Yeah it is, but it's also everything I hate about pop music at the same time.
It's so well made it infuriates me.

I don't know about Pop that much (maybe that's the reason why i dislike most Lady Gaga songs Ive heard and why you guys are jizzing all over her) but I like JT's stuff for some reason. Recommend me some Pop music, Aaron. And please don't say Catfight On A Hotdog.

Pink and Yellow

its like really simple happy melodies being played by weird mechanical sounding samples, whats more fun than that

i have a sudden hankering to listen to Alanis Morrisette's [i]Jagged Little Pill[/i]

Txus, try that Strawberry Switchblade album up on mah blog

you have to sit down and listen to The Fame all the way though to get into Lady Gaga.

I didn't like any of the singles she released on the radio, and once i listened to them in the context of the entire album I love them.

it's a grower, but once it grows on you it hits so hard

I hate most radio stuff because usually i'm hearing it on poopty speakers at work or on peoples mobile phones and in shopping malls.

The production on The Fame is really good.

I feel weird when someone calls me txus now :p

Downloading now, looks like something I'd like tbh plus Cocteau Twins name drop :D

yeah the production on this **** blows my mind

**** you, Haz! I need to download like most of your blog :(

Aaron: Thanks, I already hate some of those, haha. Will check out the ones that look interesting.

I'm still brainstorming and adding to that list.

I used to be a huge Kelly Clarkson fan.

Yeah, I tried to recreate some of those fat synth sounds, it's not as easy as one might think.

sometimes I get muddled up, i'm like is it Mitch or is it Matt so i'm like **** i'll just refer to you as Txus then I remember your name is Mike and i'm like :(

Here's the thing, we started off friends, it was cool but it was all pretend, since you've been Jaundice

you don't have to tell me that, i'm still racking my brains trying to figure out how to make a synth sing like that
