SupercolliderMusic
04.26.13 | Fo sure. people who only listen to dubstep especially. CHECK OUT THIS DROP!
Shut the fuck up. |
Rowan5215
04.26.13 | Nah lol he's not that bad, he's liked some stuff I linked him and he listens to more than one type of techno. But right now he's pissing me off so bad by pretending he knows something about metal when he doesn't. |
YoYoMancuso
04.26.13 | I also love how he automatically writes something off because he thinks it resembles metal |
Rowan5215
04.26.13 | Yeah. I mean it wasn't even the actual version of Head Like a Hole, it was that mashup version with Call Me Maybe, I thought he would find it funny. But he was just like "ugh these vocals are horrible" and, not even lying, he actually linked me to a Slayer song to compare them. |
foxblood
04.26.13 | most people i know dismiss any music as soon as it vaguely resembles some aspect of what they think is metal, i can't understand it |
Sapient.
04.26.13 | Just wait till you try and show him The Downward Spiral, He'll probably call it black death metal fusion core and hate your music taste forever |
Rowan5215
04.26.13 | Lol Sapient, not even gonna try showing that to him. Tempted to link him "You Know What You Are?" for the lols though. |
Sapient.
04.26.13 | yes, definitely do that lmao, and Happiness in Slavery for good measure.
Ironically, even with You Know What You Are?, With_Teeth probably would be the best starting point, since it's arguably Trent's most poppy and accessible record IMO |
Rowan5215
04.26.13 | Yeah but there's no way he's gonna like any of their stuff now. He's saying now that he doesn't care what style of music it is, the vocals just piss him off even if they're "emotional". |
Chortles
04.26.13 | that's why it's impossible to try and show people better music |
Rowan5215
04.26.13 | I mean I don't really care if he hates NIN, his loss, it took me ages to like them as well. What pisses me off is how for like an hour now he's been adamantly arguing with me over whether the vocals are screaming or not. I mean seriously, how the fuck is Trent even remotely screaming in like 95% of NIN songs? |
YoYoMancuso
04.26.13 | Chortles it's not that hard to show people Better Music, just a simple copy-paste

Rowan5215
04.26.13 | ^ I see what you did there. |
Chortles
04.26.13 | they don't get better music though
i showed them 'detroit meat city' and they hated it |
Chortles
04.26.13 | but yeah don't worry one of my friends was telling me that one of the only screamo bands he liked was breaking benjamin |
Rowan5215
04.26.13 | Lol I feel sorry for you Chortles. I linked my friend to this thread so he could see; could someone
please explain, as I've been trying to do for like the past hour, why the vocals in NIN aren't
screaming? |
MosesMalone
04.26.13 | They're really distorted. I dunno, the screamy parts of Nine inch nails sound, well, screamy to me. |
Rowan5215
04.26.13 | Distortion doesn't equal screaming though, I mean he linked me a Slayer song for fuck's sake. Maybe in some parts like You Know What You Are? but very, very rarely. |
Kman418
04.26.13 | most people lump all music with harsh vocals into one umbrella term i've found, it just varies from person to person. some say it's all screamo, some say it's all death metal, etc. unless someone has actually taken the time to listen to more music with harsh vox they usually can't tell the difference between it tbh. yeah it's incredibly ignorant and fucking annoying when they actually act like they know what they're talking about but i can damn near guarantee everyone on this site was like that at one point or another so whatever |
Chortles
04.26.13 | pretty much hit the nail on the head there kman |
Kman418
04.26.13 | i showed one of my friends loma prieta and he actually called them screamo i was so proud of him |
Rowan5215
04.26.13 | Yep that's what I saw trying to say Kman, cheers. |
bailar12
04.26.13 | guys a retard yeah |
Rowan5215
04.26.13 | ^ Was only a matter of time before a comment like this showed up. He's not a retard, he's a cool guy, he just doesn't understand the difference between "aggressive vocals" and "screaming". |
Rowan5215
04.26.13 | "i showed one of my friends loma prieta and he actually called them screamo i was so proud of him"
I know how you feel bro, this same friend, about late last year when he was heavily into dubstep and stuff, told me liked Wish You Were Here by Floyd and I was so goddamn proud of him. |
YoYoMancuso
04.26.13 | i showed them 'detroit meat city' and they hated it
well you shouldn't start them off with such a musically intelligent piece of art |
