Honestly man, this website is getting more absurd by the minute. How the hell can people be so involved in music yet be so against drug use? Mind boggled once again.

I liked a couple ICP songs back in middle school. I was one tough cookie.
|

because i dont need drugs to enjoy music
|

Yeah, but like, they're legit bottom of the barrel. It just seems bad to ruthlessly make fun of them. There's a line between making fun of awkward suburban teens that are still into Magic Cards and just like, juggalos who come from shitty homes and don't have anything else in life.
Yeah, no denying the music sucks and they have an odd subculture but does it really merit 21+ pages of silly debates/insults??

Neither do I bro, but I can't deny that drugs don't enhance music either. Not to mention, a lot of
bands take drugs so it makes sense that a lot of enjoyment correlates with drug use.
To alter Spacemen's 3 classic album title "Taking Drugs to Listen to Music To Take Drugs To."

Drugs undoubtedly make music better though. Anyone who says otherwise hasnt fuckin tried em and is lame. Good music is good regardless of drugs but pop some shrooms, wait 45 minutes, then throw on In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida and tell me it doesnt blow your head off.

It isn't rocket science to figure out that this site is full of super awkward people. I mean, seriously, how do y'all find the time to hound this thread all day is beyond me and given the music elitism, the warning signs are all there. That and the strange reluctance on drugs. Not saying all mnstrm people do drugs, but still, the attitude here is a bit off.
I don't know, I don't see the fun in making fun of people that really don't have anything else to turn to but ICP. It's just way too sad.
|
| |
With that said no amount of drugs can make ICP decent.
|
| |
i'm "off" because i don't do drugs?
are you retarded
|
| |
HAHAHA man, I would never play that damn song if I was trippin'. I mean, I would, but as a joke. It's just such an insanely stupid song (that I like) but so mind boggling that anyone decided to make it. Hell, even the background story on that song is amazing.
But yeah, I agree. ICP sucks for normal people. That's pretty obvious given how there's barely any casual listeners.

>the attitude here is a bit off
Choosing not to do drugs isn't off at all, the attitude here is just off. How can y'all be music elitists yet never have tried drugs? It's just weird as hell. Reminds me of that idiot Anthony Fontana (Needledrops) reviewing a Sun0))) concert. Obvious as hell the dude is more into listening to what's "critically acclaimed" than "getting" the roots of the music he's listening to, hence his lulzy attempts to describe the music.
It's like, you guys seem to love music whose history and members are knee-deep in drugs, yet y'all are offset by drug use. It doesn't match up. It's like someone jocking Pink Floyd and other psychedelic bands really hard but never having tried LSD. It doesn't make any damn sense. Also another tip off that it's weird suburban teens basing their identities on what they listen to rather than a personality or understanding the music they rep.

Man, I'm not about to lump all juggalos on one category or another. Depending on whom you ask, they're either really damn friendly or just obnoxious. I figure by now their fanbase is so large, all sorts of people join. Overall though, the impression I've gotten from people who have actually interacted a lot with juggalos is that they're mostly just fuck-ups and losers that have been given pretty shitty lives.

Did you just call In A Gadda Da Vida a stupid song? Thats one of the first signs of metal and an undisputed psychedelic classic. Wow you're dumber than a Juggalo and should die now thanks.
|

Not sheriff srs or not. Yeah, I know all about it's "historical significance" but it's still a damn stupid song. Guy was so stoned he couldn't even pronounce the title to the song right.
Album it's on also sucks hard. Also the epitome of excess radio rock. Hoping I just got trolled doe.
|
| |
Just because a couple guys said they dont do drugs doesnt mean alot of people on this site havent done drugs. Theres fuckin lists about it constantly. Stop generalizing.
|
| |
The song is 17 minutes long its not fuckin radio rock. You must be thinking about the Nas sampled shit.
|
| |
A 17 minute wank-west of super-stoned dudes just indulging in every excess possible. And when the song
came out, it was radio rock brah. There's a reason why they're cited as epitomizing the peaks of AOR
(album oriented rock) which, at the time, received huge radio play.
Just because it's an old song doesn't mean it's good. And just because it's old doesn't change the
facts about it. It's just a lulzy song that exemplifies everything "wrong" with the late 60's/early
70's. To this day, I have no idea why they thought making a 17 minute song like that was a good idea.
|

Whatever you say. Rock on.
|
| |
Also, what song did Nas sample? That's fucking hilarious! I don't like Nas, so I've never really bothered paying attention to his stuff.
|
| |
The song we've been talking about silly. You must be living under a fuckin rock if you've never heard Hip Hop Is Dead
