no offence but i think techno is the most awful kind of 'music' (if you can even call it that) that I have ever had the misfortune of hearing, I can listen to nearly every kind of music from rap and hip-hop to rock but techno just makes me want to bang my head against a brick wall repeatedly (like so :headbang: ) until I pass out

Nice site. Its kinda funny. But of course techno is better than what they make it sound like.

Well, right now i'm listening to an industrial/rap/hardcore/electronic group called Corporate Avenger. It's unique. lol

Though I like The Prodigy too...who are techno, I guess :)

I'm not big on the whole electronic genre, but it can be cool when done well. I should get into more stuff.

its a style of music that you just have to get into. I like going to raves. but i dont really have that great of a choice because of where i live.

Hmm, well, I don't see myself enjoying a rave without drugs, and i've stopped them. I'm picky about the music I listen to, so I don't really enjoy clubs...they usually turn into a lump of shit music with one or two good songs in the whole night if i'm lucky. I go to places for the music now, not the party kinda feel.

Im thinking to myself how can a group be all of those things. I guess I would just have to listen them. I never thought you could really mix hardcore and techno together.

I haven't heard their new album, but "Freedom is a State of Mind" is definitely worth a listen. I had to import it, because I think it was only released in the USA. You should be able to download some tracks on a P2P program, that's where I first discovered them...way back when Napster still worked :p

It's not really "techno" though...the best way I could describe it now that I think about it is "Electronic Punk Rap". :D

As an added bonus, they're Native American tribal anarchists. How could you not love that?

'music' (if you can even call it that)

Not on my watch, and my taste in music rocks! (see sig)
