Your point? Lyrics don't save a song, it doesn't take a fan to realize that. When someone calls something filler you can go on about it being unique and fans liking it or whatever that's valid, going "it has good lyrics!11" doesn't change anything, especially when the lyrics really aren't taht good.

Comparing men to monkeys is a good metaphor in my opinion, since alot of them have about as much sense. "Give them thumbs, they make a club and beat their brother down."

Comparing men to monkeys maybe have been clever in the 60s, but after 50 years I'd like to think we've advanced beyond metaphors that have been rehashed since evolution was theorized. It's overdone, it's been used before, it's cliche. As for that line, pointless expansion on the monkey point. Plus we know monkey have thumbs so...

How is simply coming into a thread and saying, "filler is filler", making a valid comment on the music? It has no productive criticism in it at all, though I like your latter post better.

Well it seems to be a point you failed to grasp and also failed to really counter. See my first point.

My main point, I hate the entire genre of rap, yet you don't see me up and down the threads voicing my opinion on how much they truly suck donkey ass. And while it may not be a fact, I don't know, you once voiced your dislike for Tool. So if you don't like the band, don't come in a thread devoted to the band simply to say, "its filler."
|
Did someone's feelings get hurt because I pissed on the sacred nu-metal cow that is Tool? It's a music forum, people state their opinions. Mine filler comment wasn't even that negative, I like bands and I am perfectly aware plenty of them have filler songs does it make me think any less of them? No.

It was ironic, because you have the tendency to randomly post your loathing for all bands not in your top 20 list. I am not taking personal stabs at you at all, I'm just sayin'.

That's not irony, that's being consistent. Also that statement is invalid seeing as I like more than 20 artists, much much more than 20 and I don't bash those that don't make the top 20 list.
