Yeah but you like what you like so whatever.

Coincidentally, everyone's into Yes and Pink Floyd here : P

Only band that comes to mind would be The Jesus Lizard, my friends think of it as music for the ignorant and mentally unblanced.

Because of the everyday hassle you get from indie kids where you live?

It was a joke.

Not a good one, mind you, but yeah, I make cracks about indie just like people make cracks about prog, I feel people get too antsy about it.

You do. You must be numb to it by now.

Comus 06-08-2009 08:07 PM

Billy Joel, some people can't understand his deep prog masterpieces :(

gunnels 06-08-2009 08:15 PM

^Saw him in concert a few weeks ago.
Time of my life.

Then your friends must be ignorant and mentally unbalanced! Uh i listen to some extreme metal/grindcore that most of my friends wouldn't like, i get a few s******s when i say i really like Blink 182 as well.

TumorAttitude 06-09-2009 05:37 PM

I like Mindless Self Indulgence and I thought they were the greatest thing ever until I discovered Frank Zappa and realized what they were doing was not entirely new.

I still like them though, and they seem like the sort of band you guys would really dislike.

ChiliColdBlood 06-10-2009 02:05 PM

Some people I know who like similar (or, in some cases, much worse) music claim to dislike Alexisonfire and I have a sneaking suspicion that it's just because they've become so popular here.

Similar thing with The Trews - I've had a bunch of people tell me "THEY SUCK" and I just don't understand it. They play fun rock music, it's cool if you don't like it, but to hate them? Come on.

I won't start hating on a band just 'cause they achieve some level of success.

FaSho 06-10-2009 02:06 PM

Not on here at all, but all my friends hate Aesop Rock for some reason. :crazy:

crash_override 06-10-2009 02:13 PM

My friends always used to hate on Nick Drake. Like bad.

Haha, that would be interesting. I know it hurts boo squared, it hurts me too.

boo boo 06-10-2009 02:29 PM

No dude, you got it all wrong.

I want to congratulate them for their excellent taste.

FaSho 06-10-2009 08:10 PM

A band I like that people on music banter hate?
I've loved The Academy Is... for forever but been afriad to talk about it on here.

Antonio 06-10-2009 08:23 PM

RockerGuurl 06-10-2009 08:29 PM

Heavy Heavy Low Low

I only have Turtle Nipple and the Toxic Shock, don't really like anything before that. The vocals sound retarded, but thats the reason I like them. Its almost like screamo with a sense of humor with a little bit of psycedelic stuff on the side.

Absolutely one of the worst bands I've ever seen live. What a waste of time.

i thought they were hilarious, especially because they followed tera melos who played a really mellow set.

Burning Down 06-11-2009 01:04 PM

I secretly like Blink 182. Everyone else seems to hate on them though...

Yeah they were pretty cool guys. We chatted with them for a bit after the show. But the performance was horid, it was pretty funny though.

boo boo 06-11-2009 01:24 PM

People have warmed up to the prog bands over here. But unfortantely that's not the case in the real world.

People sometimes laugh at me when I say I love Genesis. :(

I got into a fist fight once because someone said 'Selling England by the Pound' was ***. Needless to say I was a little more than pissed about it.

p.s. No bs, that really did happen.

boo boo 06-11-2009 01:33 PM

Wow, I'm very defensive about my tastes but I dunno about unleashing physical violence. :laughing:

Bjork is an exception, talk trash about her and you'll never eat solid foods again.

I was already angry because I didn't like the guy and had to give him a ride somewhere. He was in the backseat and I was playing Genesis and he was like "this **** is ***"....

"thats it, out of the car bitch".

boo boo 06-11-2009 01:44 PM

Well for my brothers 19th birthday party I was the DJ, I brought every damn CD I had, asked his friends what kinda music they liked, they were indie kids, so I cranked up some Ok Computer and Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots.

My 11 year old brother started talking crap, saying it sucks and telling me to turn it off.

To which I screamed out loud "YOU LIKE NICKELBACK AND SOUJA BOY, F*CK YOU!"

Little kids have the worst taste in music.
