I have about 3 new bands in my library that you have recommended PMO, but I simply don't do any rap music period. It is not my thing and if you find it important then that's cool, I don't so give me the benefit of my own personal choices, I only have so much time left in this world and I will not waste it on a music genre that just does nothing for me period. I do like most of the other bands you have recommended though and that is why I like music forums.

I respect your opinion about the Wu PMO, and because it is not my kind of music that's why I didn't cast a vote in this round. We have the same thoughts on the whole Black/Death/Doom metal genre as well, they are almost certifiably insane.

The Velvet Underground
"We're musical primitives." -John Cale Undoubtedly one of the most influential bands ever , second only to maybe the Beatles. The Velvet Underground eschewed conventional melodies and pop style lyrics in favor of dour, rigidly constructed songs about sadomasochism, sexual deviance, drugs, despair and the harsh reality of urban life on the fringes. Offbeat, daring, challenging, provocative, sometimes outrageous, always different, during wildly experimental and progressive second half of the 60’s The Velvet Underground was the avant-rock outfit of excellence. Although never commercially successful, there is that famous line from Brian Eno that only a few thousand people bought their first album and almost every single one of them would start a band. The Velvets influence on music can be traced everywhere from David Bowie to Sonic Youth. The Velvet Underground: Lou Reed- lead vocals/songwriter/guitarist John Cale- Multiple instruments/vocals Sterling Morrison- Guitar/bass Maureen Tucker- Drums Also: Nico- Vocals on The Velvet Underground & Nico Doug Yule- Multiple instruments on The Velvet Underground and Loaded Albums: The Velvet Underground & Nico White Light/White Heat The Velvet Underground Loaded Recommended Songs: Sister Ray Heroin Venus in Furs Sunday Morning Sweet Jane I'm Waiting for the Man |
