they play blink 182 on the radio all the time yeah, but that doesn't make it mainstream rock =]. Do you consider Tool to be mainstream rock because they get radio play with The Pot and Schism?

Si1v3RfaNg 01-18-2009 06:22 PM

Mainstream is anything fed to the radio listeners, because therefore it becomes famous through radioplay and not actual quality.

Fuq da mainstream

me saying everything that "everything that isnt mainstream sucks" has just as much validity as your statement.

idk I think old Metallica is quality and that gets plenty of radio play.

Six Foot Revolver 01-18-2009 06:26 PM

mainstream just means that is is popular.

exactly. popular does not always mean bad. though as of late it has been. the foo fighters are good and they get a lot of radio play. i mean, just hating everything playing on the radio is a little dumb.

You're saying it as though anything could be played on the radio and people would automatically like it just because its on the radio which blatantly isnt true. How come bands have one single and then fade away, how come some bands never make it. You fail to realise, because youve never bothered to research, that theres hundreds of thousands of aspiring pop groups out there and just as many of them, if not more , fail as bands in the various punk/metal/underground/whatever scenes. The **** you hear on the radio is the cream of the crop. To make it onto national radio takes alot of work and alot of money. And you might say that its being fed to the people but no more so than when you tell your mates about a band or you go to myspace and see a metal band advertised.

So really stfu now cause you may not like it and i can understand why but saying its terrible just because its on the radio is just plain ignorant

hismajestythepope 01-18-2009 06:44 PM

big80smullet 01-18-2009 06:52 PM

rasputin 01-18-2009 06:55 PM

rewatched reservoir dogs last night, the opening scene where they discuss the deeper context of 'like a virgin' is classic

xtal 01-18-2009 06:58 PM

reservoir dogs is boring thx for your opinion eliminator

Nostalgia 01-18-2009 06:58 PM

I smoked some strange weed last night. Like, after a bowl of it I wasn't even seeing straight.

Guess I shouldn't get weed from Mexicans anymore.

sounds like it was laced with something

there was a problem in houston a few years back that one of the larger mexican distributors in the city was lacing their weed with embalming fluid

**** ****s you up

Moon Flavor 01-18-2009 08:37 PM

If you smoked laced weed you'd be far worse off than not being able to see straight chances are that weed was made with some shitty pesticides and miracle grow since it's mexican
