HeinzHines Posted March 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2005 I'm very disappointed after hearing the track on pure volume. I was expecting a Van Halen tribute act. Shut it you slag!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neil ex Posted March 1, 2005 Report Share Posted March 1, 2005 It was strange seeing Macrocosmica outside Dr Drakes. They were quite good, I've enjoyed them more in the past though..Glasgow was cool like. I fancy this girl that works in the Sainsburys beside the Donald Dewar monument.. She served me my Sunday Times, and she was very friendly! I've never been called a slag before! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripey Posted March 1, 2005 Report Share Posted March 1, 2005 this really didn't do anything for me, think I'd need to be under 18 and pissed out of my brain to glean any sort of pleasure from it. To be honest, it just conjures up the image of a classroom full of downs-syndrome kids having simultaneous epilleptic fits, and, once the tune finishes, smearing themselves with their own excrement while grinning wildly, waiting for the teacher to give them a gold star.2/10, 1 point for having the mental capacity to co-ordinate picking up your instruments and playing at the same time, and a 2nd point for sounding marginally less monotonous than my washing machine.

Or perhaps, of the audience for this kind of stuff.

I mean, sometimes eating at mcdonalds can be quite pleasurable, but nobody in their right mind would compare a big-mac, fries and a milkshake, to a nicely cooked italian meal accompanied by a good bottle of wine. My idea of a "thinking" band isn't some music-theory-driven, by-the-book exercise in pretentiousness, I don't sit at home listening to perfect renditions of classic music performed by some orchestra, for example. But let's be honest here. This isn't clever music. This is music for the kind of people who laugh at Jackass and Dirty Sanchez, it's like those tv shows in the sense that its puerile, senseless and actually quite degrading and embarassing for those involved, when seen outside of the context of it's juvenile audience.

Seeing how you just damned everyone who listens to louder music a brainless moron....i think its fair that you engage us with you knowledge of why our musical taste is so degrading and embarassing and yours is apparently as fine as the leather hides used in a rolls royce? When you quite possibly cant, because we are all individual and as individuals we are allowed to make up our own minds on what music we like to listen to/create.....it works the other way round...for instance 'i think your musical taste is really degrading because everyone who listens to it likes watching mastermind and thats just sad......(i know that sounds like crap...but its about as strong an argument as 'everyone who listens to louder music watches jackass') Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
