i am in an extreme state of tedium, just thought i would start a discussion of music, any and all music with no exceptions, no need to be like: "that band sucks, how could you like them!" lets be mature, if you dont like a genre or group simply disagree, the same way you would agree.


i will start this off, i will just say a few bands i like:
avenged sevenfold
atreyu
aiden
beneath the sky
dr.acula

I like :

The Smiths
Portishead (not entirely sure about Third, mind)
Interpol
Massive Attack
Some of Tricky's stuff
Placebo
Others.

To respond to your first post :

Avenged Sevenfold are rubbish. Just consider this idea when you next listen to their music, and your taste will improve.

Opeth, Iron Maiden, Snoop, Wu-Tang Clan, Ensiferum, off the top of my head :D

I have diverse tastes, yet country still sucks!

hmmm..i would have to disagree that..a7x are"rubbish",i kinda grew up with them from the very first album, watching a bands evolution is quite awesome : D, but it is kewl interesting taste, i enjoy some smiths

intersting tastes E! Iron Maiden, opeth, im okay with some rap... i did not want to admit this but i have an intense dislike for the majority of country...

Off the top of my head.

I have an odd taste in music. I say that because everyone I know says that what I listen to is crap :p

Here are a few songs I like, so you can make your own judgement!

Ghetto Blasphemer by Rabbit Junk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Xd2dGATAYU) (Gangsta Rap + Black Metal = Win)

The fall of arthrone by Unexpect (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4wHkkWJ0Q8) (Not my favourite song by them, but great live video)

Wormwood by Callisto (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-Ze4mo1msY&feature=related) (Shame the Saxophone solo isn't on the live version, but still awesome)

Ghetto Blasphemer by Rabbit Junk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Xd2dGATAYU) (Gangsta Rap + Black Metal = Win)

Yes, Rap Metal is frickin' awesome.

Streetlight Manifesto, Bandit of the Acoustic Revolution, The Aquabats!, The Planet Smashers, Mad Caddies and Mustard Plug are the only ones I can think of at the moment.

Generally I like ska/ska punk (according to wikipedia) with some sort of horn section but recently I've realised I'm listening to the same songs over and over. Anyone think they can recommend me some music?

Yes, Rap Metal is frickin' awesome.

When its done well, yes. Unfortunate that there were all those "nu-metal" bands a few years ago which brought shame on the genre a bit.

wow..suprised at the increase in postage : D
i enjoy like any genre.. i see alot of classic rock up there^^
queen is always awesome, as well as the doors
ska can be pretty awesome..i would have to agree..nu-metal for the majority is pretty tasteless...nirvanas stellar : D idk

I like several brasilians bands that ya'll don't know.

educate us..i always love learning of new music, kudos on nirvana as well

Can somebody explain the merits of Avenged Sevenfold and Aiden to me?

Can somebody explain the merits of Avenged Sevenfold and Aiden to me?

No, if you don't like them, you don't like them, if you do, you do.

Chevelle
Tool
Deftones
Nirvana
Alice in Chains
Rage Against the Machine
System of A Down...and the like, the list goes on...


I hate what most of the state listens too though...Country and Rap blow...

Streetlight Manifesto, Bandit of the Acoustic Revolution, The Aquabats!, The Planet Smashers, Mad Caddies and Mustard Plug are the only ones I can think of at the moment.

Generally I like ska/ska punk (according to wikipedia) with some sort of horn section but recently I've realised I'm listening to the same songs over and over. Anyone think they can recommend me some music?

The Aquabats! still have good music, but they no longer have their brass section, so they've gone temporarily (hopefully, I mean, I love their music, but I want the Ska Boss back...) into a techno/synth band. Awesome Forces is still one of my favourite songs, though.

Cake is a funk rap (their name for the genre is fapfap, if I remember correctly) band with ska influence, and they have great brass bits in Short Skirt/Long Jacket.

When its done well, yes. Unfortunate that there were all those "nu-metal" bands a few years ago which brought shame on the genre a bit.

Thanks for the reminder.

Excuse me while I go shiver in the corner out of fear of bad music. Incredibly bad music.

if your into ska, i recomend choking victim or destroy everything

if you like that kinda sound listen to old skool raggae like Marley

if you like that "type" of sound here are some bands kinda influenced by it

skindred- reggaesque punk/hardcore
gogol bordello- gypsy punk


if you like punk you cannot go wrong with the misfits

i have a very lackluster taste of music, well at least in my own opinioni am always llooking for new music..so if any of you would like to educate me on some of your favorite bands i would appreciate it : D

No, if you don't like them, you don't like them, if you do, you do.

There's more to musical taste than a simple statement of like or dislike. It's an involved choice that ought to be based upon something more than first impression and a crude "me like this".

Thanks for the reminder.

I know two words that will send you over the edge... Papa Roach :p

Can somebody explain the merits of Avenged Sevenfold and Aiden to me?

avenged sevenfold- an amazing, impossible to categorize band, transcends genres begining life as a metal/hardcore band, they have incorporated virtually every brand of music even tired genres such as country

aiden- taking influence from hardcore/punk bands growing up, as well as nirvana and the misfits, among others, have melded and mixed genres being labeled as "horror punk"to "Post-hardcore" to "gothicrock" to w/e
critics say they are the bridges to M.Manson, david bowie, the cure,the misfits, nirvana, and joydivision rolled into one.

i know these bands are either hated or embraced so its kewl if you dont like either of them, i do : D

A few:
The Magnetic Fields
Defiance, Ohio
Bomb the Music Industry!
Ska-P
Against Me!
Leftover Crack
NOFX
Rancid
Lupe Fiasco
Immortal Technique
Most of the people over at Riotfolk (http://www.riotfolk.org)

"kewl"?

Cake is a funk rap (their name for the genre is fapfap, if I remember correctly) band with ska influence, and they have great brass bits in Short Skirt/Long Jacket.

cake is pretty sweet..its kind of hard to hate a band like that idk : D

what I'm listening to now:

Fantastic Plastic Machine (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3q7Xgj9E43Y)
Jazztronik (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jUcetR-xvYM)
My Robot Friend (http://youtube.com/watch?v=h7quH25cszo)

I refuse to clutter this thread too much but that will most likely be this months mix

kewl

Im not even a big fan of those bands, but thats the first time ive seen another person use Kewl...I thought i was the only one...

Your officially very Kewl, lol..

"kewl"?

yes that's how i spell it : D

why thank you, : D

yes that's how i spell it : D

Everythings better when you spell it with a 'k'

Just ask Ed Boon, lol...

The Who
MC5
Lucifer's Friend
Metallica
Megadeth
AC/DC
Motorhead
Accept
Iron Maiden
Judas Priest
Black Sabbath (although I only have their Dio albums, which're starting to get old)
Dio (again, starting to get old)

i am amazed by how many people have posted : D
thank you for remaining mature..it is okay to have different tastes ..but you do not have to be rude about it.. and you guys have been just peachy.

more bands i like:
killwhitneydead
system of a down
bubblegum octopus
billy idol
public enemy
mushroomhead
dance club massacre
nine inch nails
the horrors
blood hound gang...off into infiniti

u know it would be alot easier for me to name what i wont listen to : D

I think its because, generally speaking, we have very similar tastes so far...

The Who
MC5
Lucifer's Friend
Metallica
Megadeth
AC/DC
Motorhead
Accept
Iron Maiden
Judas Priest
Black Sabbath (although I only have their Dio albums, which're starting to get old)
Dio (again, starting to get old)

i like your interest in the classics however i would have to say that some of those bands get "old" really fast such as more recent metallica or ac/dc

cant go wrong with the last 4 and motorhead, and if you are getting bored of dio & heaven & hellesque sabbath listen to rainbow that was dio's first band if i am not mistaken

There's more to musical taste than a simple statement of like or dislike. It's an involved choice that ought to be based upon something more than first impression and a crude "me like this".

Why?

for the most part i will listen to anything
excluding:
some "gangsta" rap (i like political rap more and rap that does not demoralize women)

most latter-day country(do not get me wrong i like the "western" genre but idk i just seems like present day country is a limited genre)



other than that anything and I mean ANYTHING!!

for the most part i understand what chris is trying to say..
rather than have bland, mindless pop music that you hear once and say
"oh that sounds like something, people like, me likey",..
its more: "you know what i like this, im going to listen to more of this group, im not going to listen to this group because my friends like it or dont, or because they were on TRL(or w/e the fudge is on mtv these days ..) im going to listen to this because i like it"

i know that extremely crude and there are many other ways at looking at it but that was extremely simplistic in nature...(i am used to dealing with idiots)


(i dont care if my grammar or spelling or use of phrasing is incorrect so dont mock me) : D

*mocks Daviiod*

If that is indeed what he was trying to say, then I can see the point...
My thoughts on it though are that I don't care what anybody else thinks of me music choices, if I like how it sounds I listen to it, no additional thought needs to be put into it, either I like it or I don't.

That'll change as your post count goes up...

Elf was actually his first band (blues-rock/Southern rock) but that's a minor nitpick. Rainbow...I actually had their Long Live Rock N' Roll album for a while. I think I'm just starting to get bored of Dio's "polished" voice and style, because I've been getting into a lot rawer bands recently (I never used to like Lemmy's vocal style, but now I do) I don't really have any Metallica albums, but I do kind of like some of their early songs (and yeah, I've heard St. Anger was shit.) AC/DC, true, they do tend to get boring after a while, but their best albums, while not worth listening to back to back, you just can't ignore them. I'm thinking of getting early Sabbath as that was my first introduction to metal in general. (I used to have Paranoid as well) Diamond Head is another great band I forgot to mention, especially their debut (Lightning to the Nations) which I still don't have yet.

Why?

Because music is every much an intellectual pursuit as is art or literature, and one does not make crue decisions upon those.

im sorry i doubted your knowledge of classic rock : D

Because music is every much an intellectual pursuit as is art or literature, and one does not make crue decisions upon those.

It depends on the music in question. A symphony by Beethoven or (to be a little more on my home ground here) King Crimson's first album might be an intellectual pursuit. But Guns N' Roses' "It's So Easy" or Poison's "Talk Dirty To Me"? I think not.

yes that's how i spell it : D

Why? Are you just poorly educated, or do you believe that consciously and consistenly spelling words wrongly is "kewl"?

im sorry i doubted your knowledge of classic rock : D

I'm a bit of a history nerd (not so much anymore), and yeah, that kind of extended to my musical tastes.

while i would say that i am stupid, ignorant,..i would not say that i am uneducated.. is not usng that phrase incorrect sir? when you are stating that a person is "with it" or "popular" or w/e,is not that strange phrase..if you really want a reason i dont like assosciating it with temperature so i created a new spelling a t a new age..it is not like i am spelling...ugh im not even going to explain.. im sorry but i do not think i pushed your "spell check button"...if you think im just plain slow..why talk in the post i created?..im trying not to be negative..but you sir are just plain condescending :D

i just choose to spell a word, a slang term incorrectly

Kudos on those and others..comprehensive list : D

i am a nerd as well and i have a passion for history too.

Nice. I used to correct my history teacher a lot.

i agree with you while i might not like gun's and roses (axl's a tool) or
poison.. i can see what you mean..

I agree that Axl is a tool, but I do like some Guns N' Roses (Appetite for Destruction, for one.) Poison, I find them fairly average, although I have a female friend who is a fan (unsurprising?).

good choices man : D.. so far youare the closest in taste to me.

if you like metal or grindcore check out:

two bands that are not very popular, but have huge potential.

I´m currently listening to E Nomine. How would their music be classified? If you know, that´s a genre of music I like.
