"Ian, did you like the song nelly did wtih tim Mcgraw?"

No. Not at all. Any country I like is older country like Hank Williams. The modern pop country does nothing for me. Any country I listen to has almost a folk feel to it.

"To be honest guys I sorta expected more Nintendo fans to be into Techno for some reason. I guess I figured gamers are supposed to like tehcno cuz its game music. at least thats what got me into it so much."

To me game music is almost like a different genre altogether. It's hard to explain but it has a different feeling for me than techno music does even though they're very similar. Techno seems more like it's own thing and is pretty dance oriented while game music is more like writing classical music and playing it with synthesizers. With techno synthesizers are used specifically for that kind of sound while with games it's like they wanted to use a full orchestra but couldn't and were forced to use bleeps and bloops because there was nothing else. In fact I don't like game music as much since they've been able to actually use something that sounds more like an orchestra.

MY NEW FAVORITE:

This Ain't a Scene

it's by fall out boy

EasyCure · « **Reply #77 on:** February 28, 2007, 05:34:47 AM »

eh.. one of my band mates is really into fall out boy and won´t shut up about them... i´ll admit this new album is alot better than the regurgitated stuff they´ve put out before but its still not for me. i dont like the singers voice which is a big put off to me in any style music.

besides any band that strikes an exclusive deal with a brand like aeropostel is what i would call ¨sell out´but thats just me i guess. to each his own

You guys have it easy. I have friends who have been into Fall Out Boy for six years now. I didn't care for them then and I'm beyond sick of them now. I can't believe they got famous.

atleast it was just your friend, i had a gf that got into them with their first album and i was with her awhile, then i worked at a hot topic around the time that last album came out so when i wasnt the only manager working i was forced to listen to it by another manager (who also happens to be an ex) and an army of little scenester kids i had to work with, and now my bandmate is all over their fall out BALLS with this new album going on and on about how good it is.

i swear the second he says he wants to sound like them im quitting the band and taking my songs with me

"atleast it was just your friend, i had a gf that got into them with their first album and i was with her awhile"

My last two girlfriends both considered Nickleback to be their favourite band. F*cking Nickleback!

While I'm usually opposed to Supergroups, members from Goldfinger bad religion, Unwritten Law and a Ramone? AWESOME.

None of the members is from the Ramones. The singer was in a band called "Dee Dee Ramone".

hey all you who are hatin on fall out boy, i just gotta say i dont even like them i just like that one song this aint a scene. dont know why but its rockin cool??

EasyCure · « **Reply #89 on:** March 08, 2007, 05:34:12 AM »

lol i hate it when people say 'i dont like this band i just like that one song' then you do like their music. just admit it, its ok. just because people are hating on a band doesnt mean you can't like them because they're popular.

im not trying to single you out mysticspike, just so you know, you just brought up a funny example

EasyCure · « **Reply #90 on:** March 08, 2007, 05:44:09 AM »

i just wanna say thank you to 18days for turning me on to a good band

i hope they go for something different in their logo tho...

the white first against the black backdrop sadly reminds me of all of green days 'american idiot" logos with the stupid little heart-grenade. it sucks... green day still writes really good, catchy, songs and to write a "punk-rock opera" the way they did using the simplest of power chords and having it all make sense (and be good) is actually a great accomplishment but i cant help but feel they are actually hurting (american) kids by fuelling them with blind hate/dissapproval of the govt/current administration. a generation of kids is going to grow up with green day as their politics... ugh.

its just dissapointing that the Black President logo reminds me of such a thing.

"i hate it when people say 'i dont like this band i just like that one song' then you do like their music."

I don't know about that. Sometimes I only like one of two songs by a band and have hated everything else I've heard of their's. Usually it's because those one or two songs break away from their usual sound. I wouldn't say in that case I like their music because if I went to their concert I would be bored for a good 90% of it. Hell I could completely hate it depending on the set list.

segagamer12 · « **Reply #92 on:** March 08, 2007, 09:08:26 AM »

I am with spike and ian, there are LOTS of bands I *HATE* but that have one or two songs I like. Its not hard. I can't stand green day, hate them with a passion, but I like Good Riddance, its a good song. They got lucky and happened to make one decent song.

It's also possible to like a band/singer and still find songs you hate by them. Like Snoop, I have been a fan since the begining. I have had every single album he has released, I have every soundtrack to every movie he has done songs for or stared in, I bought True Crime cuz he was in it, bottom line I like his music and am a big fan. BUT he still manages to come up with utter crap I can't stand from time to time. Mostly cuz he is so spread out that he does songs with everybody (except mean grean records you baztard!) and he gets stuck doing songs with people who flat out suck. Plus he got kinda wierd once he invented his own langauge.

"It's also possible to like a band/singer and still find songs you hate by them."

I didn't think it was possible to not dislike at least one song by an artist.

Led Zeppelin is the most consistently great band I've ever heard. They never seem to make blatant album tracks. They always try to make something special with each song and most of the time they succeed. But once in a while they miss and I can't stand listening to "The Crunge" or "In My Time of Dying". Now there are bands where I've liked every song I've heard by them but I'm only familiar with their hits and haven't listened to all their albums in full (Zeppelin is the only band I've done that with).

Hell I consider a studio album (ie: not a hits compilation) where I like every song to be a rarity.

Finally got around to having a listen to those songs. And yes, I was intrigued. Combining Hetson's hops and Goldfinger's slick guitar work (can't be bothered looking into Goldfinger's setup currently, but I still remember Superman - damn that was a catchy tune). I'll keep an eye on these guys.

EasyCure · « **Reply #95 on:** March 09, 2007, 07:10:03 AM »

lol yeah Superman was ultra catchy, its actually how i got into them (Tony Hawk proskater ftw).

i wanted to edit my post before but i got lazy, i didnt get my thoughts across the way i should have.

i just think saying 'i hate this band so much...but XX is a good song' is dumb, but i didnt mean to imply that liking a song makes you a fan of the band. i just think you dont truley hate the band/artist. maybe its just because hate is a strong word to me that i rarely use it unless i really hate something, but its just the way i am.

its like hating Danzig (the band) but loving him as a singer. it just doesnt make sense to me, if you praise the singer so much just say you dislike the direction he took his music. this actually reminds me of a friend i had..
huge Misfits fan, loved em to death, cept he swore he hated Danzig (band). I'm talking about a guy who would hand draw posters of Glen Danzig with the misfits for his wall and had a tattoo of him on his back, admired this guy to no end.... but goes and says he HATES Danzig (band) with a passion. it just doesnt make sense to me that you can hold someone up in such high regards but say you hate their work...but you still respect them?

I guess it is just me but if i hate something, i hate something. period.

"Boogie with Stu" is virtually the only song I don't like from Led Zeppelin, sure there are songs I like more than others, but that is the only song that I can't listen to.

i guess game soundtracks do work out well for artists, as I too got into goldfinger through that Superman Song on Tony Hawk, 99 red balloons sealed the deal for me and I snatched up like 3-4 of their CDs.

Oh and props to 18days, I'll keep them on my radar.

Moving on, I can only think of a few albums where i can listen to each track without wanting to skip a song

Billy Talent I and II: Most of their stuff doesn't really have any great meaning or anything (some of which, I'm completely clueless over) but their pretty catchy and have the best intensity in their music.

Linkin Park's Hyrbid Theory: Almost perfect in every way, to me at the time it was a style I've never heard of.

MxPx's Slowly going the way of the buffalo: Probably my favorite album of theirs and if there was a song I'd skip it would be the last track since its just a instrumental, its not a bad one but its skippable.

Oh and I got a question for you guys and I'd rather not start a new thread, out of all the legal music download stores who do u like best? Currently I'm using MusicMatch, I like it cause it doesn't charge tax unlike Itunes.

segagamer12 · « **Reply #98 on:** March 15, 2007, 11:16:52 AM »

I've never heard a song by Snoop that was on one of his albums I didn't like, its just when he does quest appearances with people I can't stand. but the only cd I have ever actually liked every single song and could put it on repeat all day long is Doggystyle. Well some guests on his own albums I cant stand either but for the most part i like most of his stuff.

Mysticspike · « **Reply #99 on:** April 05, 2007, 01:27:16 PM »

i have a new favorite song - violent pornogrophy. its by System of a Down. i recently developed strong bonds to this music and love it. who else is a fan of soad? i forget its been to long. also, i have heard a really good song by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. its called "face down." i dont like it as much as that other song, but its pretty high on the list. also, linkin park is one of my new favorite bands, mostly "numb" and "faint." they are good songs
