Yeah, I guess you're right. Maybe it's not his fault after all. I guess it's the German beer and French vanilla pudding reenacting WWII in his stomach.

This is a perfectly fine thread which has caused "drama" (urghh) because people have reacted to harmless posts made by several different members. Batlord receiving any blame/aggro in regards to what he has said in here is completely nonsensical as far as I am concerned.

Now, could we please brace our upper lips when entering threads such as these in future?

Batlord - you like some really good metal but a lot of it is just too dramatic for me.

"Drama" ugh... I don't know when MB drama is real or staged. I thought everything I'd read so far was "nonsensical" but all this time it was real? Then again I skipped over a bunch of stuff too. The stuff I've read I really don't know what I am reading half the time. While I am reading I am constantly thinking is this real or is this how they joke around? And if there was real drama, I apologize to those who were in the middle of it for making light of it by saying the sole responsibility lies on the shoulder of The Batlord.

Exactly. Everyone has shortcomings in life, including in their approach to listening to music. Some people are lazy music explorers, some people are prejudiced against certain genres for no good reason, etc. It would be impossible to be totally polite and inoffensive when pointing out stuff like that to people, so unless you can't take a bit of non-fluffy criticism, even if it might open your eyes to listening to other music, then you probably shouldn't come into a thread entitled "Spill Your Guts About MB Members' Tastes In Music". Especially after my OP made it clear that this wasn't just a place to jerk each other off. Just take your licks and move on.

I like you to know that I am proud to be a lazy music explorer and have prejudices against certain genres - thank you very much.

Lick me please. I'd like to hear what people think about my taste in music outside of rap.

3. I'm stunned that you can like prog music and dislike long and complex instrumentals. It's strange. Generally don't really dig anything you post apart from the odd classic that you proceed to **** on but you contribute so much to the site that it works out.
4. Seriously awesome listening and creating sensibilities.
5. No more cool points for you.

Which one is which? a. Mondo Bungle b. Trollheart c. The Batland d. Goofle e. Everyone who rallied for Def Leppard and Van Halen in the faceoff thread.

Why would you **** on someone for hating horrible bands? I've gotta be 2

Were you the guy who kept playing those Epic Rap Battle Youtube clips in plug? Stop that ****. They're ****ing annoying. Other than that I know nothing about what you listen to.

Anybody want to give their views on my music taste? Be as honest and brutal as you want to be. No kissing ass, although I think we all know that I don't really have that good a music taste. I've been listening to a ton of thrash metal recently, and I just finished listening to Bonded By Blood by Exodus. One of my favorites for sure. If you do shit on my taste, mind giving me some album recs that are like Exodus?

My RYM.
