Afro Droid Posted February 9, 2004 Report Share Posted February 9, 2004 To be honest the term 'ned-rock' reeks of elitism. I don't care who likes the same bands, infact, it warms my very soul to know that there are like-minded people out there. I couldn't give a dead rat's toss if they're into whoever for the "wrong" reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tv tanned Posted February 9, 2004 Report Share Posted February 9, 2004 It is so funny that this thread consists of certain people laying into bands with no real reason other than 'I think they're shit' and yet when the bands these people like receive criticism they immediately leap onto their high horse.

Dan G Posted February 9, 2004 Report Share Posted February 9, 2004 I have to be honest I think the Drakness are great. A great breath of fresh air in the market, and the very fact they can churn out chart toppers on the same album that has songs about shooting smack ("Giving up"), genital warts ("Growing on Me") and a song that goes "Get your hands off my woman motherfucker" and "you cunt"... well that says it all. Not to mention the cure piss-take, Dancing on a friday night.I don't really care if they are just a novelty band or if they never make another album, but the OTT vocals and AC/DC, Thin Lizzy and Queen rip-off riffs/solos are great. And my Dad loves them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Kong Posted February 9, 2004 Report Share Posted February 9, 2004 I can't think of my lamest band for 2003...to be honest so long as the music has energy and isn't repetitive and entirely electronic, I'll probably be happy enough to listen to it. I really don't like bands without energy like Coldplay and Starsailor...The Darkness debate's fairly interesting. At first I wasn't at all convinced...the excessively high pitched vocals were just irritating, but then I found it was really growing on me (cue hilarious laughter). However, I've really gone off I Believe In A Thing Called Love, after having to hear it on average between 4 and 10 times every night at work!!!I think I'm gonna have to go with Oasis as my lamest band of the year...for the sole fact that everytime an Oasis song is played at work, there is immediately an out of tune chorus of drunken noise.

Guest Zombie Re-Munched Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 Oh dear, hahahahahaha The Darkness. Butlin's Holidays answer to Spinal Tap, its like The Grumbleweeds meets Def Leppard innit?. A one trick pony are The Darkness if ever i saw it, its laughable how quaint the British public love to be entertained by mediocrity. Ironic metal played by posh middle class intellectuals, its offensively humourless pantomime, its a fucking joke that is whats popular now, a covers band with a frontman dressed like a male ballet dancer and who looks like he came from Catweazle's leftover wankcrust. Its just cheap and directionless, The Darkness are no worse than Shakin Stevens, its the same sad idea, a shameful and embarrassing harkback to a period that didn't need to be taken the piss out of because it was already that bad that the piss had already been well and truly extracted from it lock stock and by many barrels.Second album?, maybe so but where's the start to this joke?, i've seen and heard the punchline before.

scottST Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 when u read this forum, its really interesting...no-one should care what other peoples opinions are, everyones voice is worth the same as everyone else's, its really funny to see how people are gettin so easily wound up about this....its only an opinion...everyne has them, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Zombie Re-Munched Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 I personally think Sean Paul is a fucking genius. He makes shitloads of cash and gets loads of birds from singing songs where no-one(and that includes Jamaicans) understands any of the words he sings!

scottST Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 iv never understood a pearl jam lyric yet....only words iv ever made out are "Even Flow!!!" and "Ahh ahh ohhh i'm so alive"...the rest are just...mumbled....thats eddie vedders style tho, i guess, lolpearl jam rock all the same...

Guest Zombie Re-Munched Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 The thing that we can take from Sean Paul's genius is the fact that none of us need ever write lyrics ever again.Just repeat the same guttural sound through every song and watch the bank balance get fatter.And there you all are learning how to play guitar and trying to gigs at Drakes and all this time Master Sean has been singing reggae songs like a haemophiliac who's just swallowed a car battery.You bunch of fucking circus seals.Lets all hail the the patron saint of reggae Sean Paul!!!!SHAKE THAT THING WALLALLLALALALALALA SHAKE THAT THING!!!!

I usually find lyrics quite hard to hear in alot of music but Pearl Jam has always been clear as day for me. If they had realsed an album this year I have no doubt in my mind that it would have been the best...in my opinion ofcourse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really laugh when those unliberal unhippy people who do care about other people's opinions feel the need to use such colourful language and EMO-tional histrionics to overemphasise their supposed opinions and arguments to the precariously uberhilarious point of self-parody.The way you're talking, i can only assume that if Josef Stalin had lived for at least 15 years more, he would've been wearing a tye-dye furry Russian soidierhat and smoking a huge fat doob while listening to some Jefferson Airplane and Mamas And Papas toooons as he planned the grisly assassinations of left-wing dissidents and the cruel Gulag prison incarcerations of opinionated uberliberal wankers.But thanks for the EMO-tion. It.was.deesc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
