erandolph90
08.08.12 | Everything except one and five (because I haven't listened to them) I enjoy as well. I mean if all of Sputnik doesn't agree with your musical taste then you're probably doing something right. |

08.08.12 | Letting Sputnikers get to you is the biggest mistake. This site has some pretty stupid unanimous opinions. |
North0House2
08.08.12 | Yeah, I don't join in on any of the opinions on this site. I basically log on, comment on lists now and again, maybe write a review for an album that I think needs more exposure, and list my digs so I can go back to them. It's basically a tool for me, I don't use it so much for a social deal.
Besides, all the music I listen to, I almost always have to add it to the DB because nobody else has heard of it yet, I guess. But, that's been the case more so lately than it was a year ago, as my tastes have grown really... bizarre. |
benkim
08.08.12 | No need to quit, ignore the idiots desperate to be assholes to get some sort of stupid relevance on the site. There is quite a huge percentage of guys who are decent posters and you can have a decent discussion but there is also a lot of guys who are just obnoxious who unfortunately make the face of the site.

benkim
08.08.12 | That said, as much as saying the site has shaped my music tastes would be quite a stretch, the site has made me discover about 75% of my favorite bands so I would not quit. I prefer to lurk and join in when I see an actually decent discussion going on. |
demigod!
08.08.12 | Judging by the bands on this list, yeah you belong here. |
Kbusch123
08.08.12 | nice to see honest comments btw :)
it just boggles (couldn't think of a better word) my mind after reading many posters comments how "right" so many people have to be. I have nothing against the user but Baseline000 seems to be the most elitist person here by simply reading comments/lists =/

08.08.12 | Coming from someone who has "left" multiple times in the 5 1/2 years I have been here, you always find yourself coming back wanting to find new music or actually talk about something you like with someone who appreciates it. |

08.08.12 | "That said, as much as saying the site has shaped my music tastes would be quite a stretch, the site has made me discover about 75% of my favorite bands so I would not quit. I prefer to lurk and join in when I see an actually decent discussion going on."
Lol, I honestly can say I have not discovered any music I enjoy from this site. I guess it's been mostly through Youtube for me, and blogs. So, I'm the opposite. But, I think this site is gold for getting some publicity out on a few acts that need more recognition.
I mean, I reviewed SORNE, added him to the DB, and everything, and he ended up being on a few end of the year lists because of it, so hopefully that sort of helped get the word out about the guy cuz he's awesome. So, I think the site's awesome for that.
I just guess I find music through different methods and think this place is best for trying to spread word about artists. |

But, Sorne did link my review on his page, which made me pretty happy lol. |

****************
LOL for me I think special circumstances come into play here. As you may well know, I come from Kenya where the "rock" scene is pretty young and a lot of guys are still stuck in the bland/generic/mainstream bullshit type of music. I had gotten tired of a lot of those bands and I was looking for ways I could get new bands that I liked and is when I stumbled into the site. I still actively look for other sites where I can get good discussions but a lot of them don't really have active members. |
Kbusch123
08.08.12 | nahhh calc seems chill :P |
North0House2
08.08.12 | I had no idea you were from Kenya. But that's pretty cool.
I follow some guys on Youtube that upload upwards of four videos a day... My favorite uploaders were pulled by WMG though because apparently they "owned" the music. Stupid stuff. But yeah, Youtube is where I get my stuff. It isn't as active, and most videos have around 100 views, no comments, and the uploaders are foreign, but it does the job for me. |

08.08.12 | And man, yeah, Youtube sucks, until you subscribe to people like UntitledDesigner and then go to all the related videos. Holy crap I've found some good stuff that way. BorealForest was my favorite uploader, he had around 1,500+ videos of some AMAZING stuff that I couldn't even find anywhere. But, he was taken down... |

08.08.12 | "I have always known Baseline to be a Romanian female named Cristina, but I have no doubt it's all an elaborate troll and that it's just some guy with multiple online aliases.

So funny because she fell for it. |
