If you love early RHCP you gotta love early 311, no?

Freebase Dali · 02-03-2010, 08:28 PM

There is no justification for loving 311.

I wore my 311 shirt yesterday.

..and realized that nothing more needs to be said. 311 have always sounded really unappealing to me

BTown, I agree with all of yours excepting Sigur Ros and GnR

Especially when every goddamn song sounds the same: your lead singer does his best impression of Donald Duck while your synth player enjoys some novel melody. I seriously can't stand this bleepity-bloop underwater Pet Sounds ****.

Does that rant include Kraftwerk and The Ramones? Both who mention The Beach Boys as a influence, the former mention them more as a inspiration to create music to be identify with Germany as the BB's did for CA, and the latter claim The Beach Boys as more of a musical influence.

P-nut is an excellent bassist and Chad Sexton can work the snares. Their early albums, Music and Grassroots, have plenty of funky tunes. Here is a favorite from before they released their first record:

i can't come up with an artist off the top of my head worth mentioning...there are quite a few that don't even merit a name drop.

i will say that i absolutely refuse to listen to the entire genre of country. even if someone showed me a country song and i actually liked it, i would still - purely out of principle - refuse to ever download, buy, or in any way associate myself with that form of music.

sadly, no.

maybe it is because everyone i met in my musically formative years who listened to country happened to be a backwoods hick. then, realizing i was from the south and may potentially be grouped in with this sad niche of society, i revolted against anything about it (accent and music included). to this day, i just can't find anything i enjoy about country. it really rubs me the wrong way.

i just don't like current pop. they say they enjoy making music, and they bull**** people because talking pointlessly, overdo the backbeat so you can't recognize it, autotune it, and sell it for $20.00, which is $20.00 more than it's worth is what they do, and they make too much money for total crap. also, i associate current pop with people who say "so last week", and those people need to GO THE **** AWAY! FROM ANY TRACE OF EXISTANCE, THEY NEED TO BE GONE!
