[QUOTE=Bartender]I'm happy with my current status, so you guys'll have to make do without me.

I think I'm addicted to Manowar (the band, not the jellyfish).[/QUOTE]


mmmmm jelly......

Paranoiddd - Punch your boss. They'll tell you not to come back tomorrow either. That means you can keep saving the sick excuse.

:lol:

I should tell him my ulcer is bothering me and if he doesn't let me go home, I'll throw up on his shoe. That might work.

I just put on an acid bath CD so I should last at least another hour.

I think I've found the only genres I cannot get into at all.
Grindcore
Hardcore
(Metalcore is ok though)
Country
Oldies

Anyone else have these same ones? Different ones maybe?

Did you try listening to hatebreed?

I can't stand hatebreed. It's the vocals. I don't mind growling or screaming so long as I know the singer can sing too (Killswitch Engage) or if the growler is simply amazing at it (Lord Worm). I'll try some more if you have suggestions though.

I haven't yet found a genre I haven't liked at least something in, I think.

Country?

Johnny Cash.

Even some country aint bad. I just don't like the bitchy "mywifeleftmemydogdiedmypickuptruckbrokedown." songs.

I'm with Bartender. I like something about everything.

Hmmm fast fingers I'm not too much into hardcore, the only band I really know is Hatebreed :/

Uhhh theres this band Terror that toured with hatebreed, but if you don't like hatebreed you won't like terror, they sound similar.

So you just aren't really into growling at all?

Art pop. You don't seem like someone who would enjoy it at all. Repetitive and annoying. I still like it though.

Or Polyphonic Spree, whatever the hel they are. I know I hate them. Anyone else?

Yeah, though I'm not sure yet. Try me with some of the less common genres, I'll see if I like anything from them.

Maybe "jungle". I don't even know what it is, to be honest.

Have you ever heard Carcass?

I haven't heard any Polyphonic Spree. What do you mean by art pop? (examples if possible)

I think it's african drums and basically all around wierd instruments playing world music/hip hop/tribal stuff.

[QUOTE=Bartender]I haven't heard any Polyphonic Spree. What do you mean by art pop? (examples if possible)[/QUOTE]

Little indie bands that use lots of synth but not in a good way. It's like rap beats without the bass and nothing but cheesy melodies on top.

Haha.

Jungle eh? Hrmmm I haven't been in that scene in a little while. I can't even think of tunes to give you...it's really quick beats, big basslines...all electronic (though I've seen drummers do it live). Alot of times theres an MC doing freestyling over it...I don't know if it would be your thing.

Theres "jungle" and "drum n bass", they are similar but different.

Theres alot of crap out there but I can usually find something good from every genre.

Is that like Maroon 5?

Because I want to slowly murder each member of that band.

No. Maroon 5 has guitars and bass. I'm talking Nelly - the rap + happy indie vocals

[QUOTE=Paranoidd]Haha.

Yeah, I know drum'n'bass. A couple of metal bands I like (namely Skindred and The Meads of Asphodel) use elements of it in their music, and it's pretty good. I don't think I could stand it on it's own though.

Don't think I've ever heard anything like that.

[QUOTE=Paranoidd]Have you ever heard Carcass?[/QUOTE]

Was that directed at me?

I think me and no I haven't. Should I?
I'll try to find some art pop for you Bartender.

You should probably check out Carcass, yeah. They've been through various stages of music, you're likely to like something - they started as grind (one of the originators), then went to death metal, then melodic death, then pretty much heavy metal before splitting.

And, thanks.

EDIT: all unclean vocals, by the way, though they became less so over the years.

Cool, I'll look into them. Thanks for the vox warning.

Right now though, I'm downloading a crapload of Moby.

Me too, I like something from every genre. :cool:


Edit: /late

ALERT: Topic change (all I seem to be good for)
New band - Stabbing Westward. You may or may not have heard them. They remind me of a poppy NiN. Pretty good band overall but maybe too formulaic for most die hards and too mellow for metalheads. Worth looking into.

My playlist right now:

Cardiak Academy - Clearer Vision
Cryptopsy - Slit Your Guts
Dream Theater - Space-Dye Vest
Frank Zappa - Stink-Foot
James Brown - Play that Funky Music
Jason Becker - Perpetual Burn
Jurassic 5 - What's Golden
Misfits - Last Caress
Nine Inch Nails - Sin
Oasis - Don't Look Back in Anger
Rascal Flatts - Prayin' for Daylight (it's a recommendation from a friend, but I haven't heard it yet)
Symphony X - Fallen
The Kingsmen - Louie Louie
The Pink Panther Theme
The Sex Pistols - Anarchy in the U.K.
The Zelda Theme (played on guitar)
Yes - Roundabout

I think it's safe to say that I like a little bit of everything too.

I've heard Stabbing Westward, didn't like it a lot.

A friend of mine went through a phase of liking Stabbing Westward a few months back, but the songs he showed me I wasn't too keen on. I like NIN though. Recommendations please?

I've heard the name, Stabbing Westward, but I've never actually heard any songs. Do you have any recommendations?

Save Yourself, Haunting Me, The Thing I Hate, What do I Have to do

In order of recommendation.

Basically when I want to sample a new band, I download all I can by them so I can get a real feel for their overall sound. When you just get one or two songs, especially singles, you run into problems when you buy the album. What a blessing a cable connection has been.

good chioce with oasis and the sex pistols.

They both rock. well the pistols dont anymore but they're still bloody good

Yeah, but I'm on 56K. And thanks, I'll make a note of those tracks; not enough time to download them now, as I'm going to my dads soon.

I've never been keen on NIN or industrial in general.


I do like Rammstein though.

Does anyone actually like stabbing westward.
They're ****e

Rammstein is the ultimate driving music.

Obviously I do otherwise I wouldn't have said I did. C'mon man, I like this thread and want it to stick around. Don't spam it up.

Why don't you let other people form their own opinions?

sorry guys
