There was a time
There was a time when i thought bands like Static-X and Powerman 5000 and Adema and the what not (drowning pool) had their place. Anytime I hear about them coming out with a new CD now (like 3 days grace did) it just seems embarassing to me. Its almost as if their trying to cling onto some last remaining relic of stardom.
Am I the only one who thinks this or am I flowing with the masses here? |
If what you think is that they put out the same generic crap so that their ignorant fans will throw them money then I'm with you.
|
Yeah I'll jump the bandwagon too. I own 2 PM5K cd's (burnt copies), both are rubbish but back in the day I liked them because they had the best song on Tony Hawks Pro Skater 2 music list.
Well at least back then i thought they did, not anymore though. |
I agree with you. Especially on PK5, Aema, and Drowning Pool. But Static-X's newest CD is actually really good.
I'm confused about 3 Days Grace though. I had thought they broke up after one release, but then I hear they are coming to my town. Doesn't matter anyways, they aren't very good at all. |
i used too think the murdrdolls were good
for about a day |

That's what bothers me is that theyre doing it for money rather than trying to make good music.
|
I like Static-X, and (I guess this goes for my area) there aren't that many die-hard fans of them. There is one girl I have spanish with that likes them and I'll ask her what a good song is. But PM5K is silly alone with Drowning Pool.
|
i still have some of ademas old albums (imsomniacs dream, unstable) but man planet has 1 song that i like, that tornado song **** and horrible how mark chaves isnt in there anymore i say they should just give up because after a year that new *** left
|
Ok well I used to like Korn, Linkin Park, Godhead, Disturbed when I was like 14. So yeah, would never go back there.
|
Who?
|
Korn gets a bad rap, their first album was brilliant. Too bad everything after that sucked and they influenced so many other musical abominations. I still listen to the first album once in a while

Good point, it also asks the question.
How in the hell did Kenny G sell so many albums? Apparently somebody must actually like Kenny G. |
Well, you've got to remember, not everybody is young and virile. Kenny G music wasn't exactly marketed for the young, the hip or the music-obsessed. It was (is?) for the elderly, the impotent and those who really enjoy lift-music. There are people out there who like it and who buy it, much as there are people out there who think go-faster stripes make cars go faster, or people who think that comb-overs will fool others. I don't know many of these people on a social level, but they exist!!

That maybe the band's idea of what good music is has changed. That maybe they're not "clinging to stardom" just changing how they play to suit themselves.
|
Oh...
Well, i heard some new Staind, sounds just like the old Staind. |
Then Staind may not be one of 'em. I've seen alot of artists change their perspective in music over the years. Alot of top Dons in music have changed styles to stay up with the times or meet a new feeling. Just for example (don't attack me on this) take Disturbed, The Sickness was alot of anger, hate, and hurt passions. Believe was more docile, some anger but more leaning towards making amends. 10,000 Fists is back into that anger but more heavy hearted, there's a kind of sadness to it almost.
Point being, to those who's music is a way of releasing their feelings their music changes with their emotions. To those who's music is about how they live or just modern life and styles in general, the music changes constantly with time. |
Let me get this straight... You say Nirvana have no talent, and you call Disturbed a good band?

Disturbed are getting better as they go on, unlike so many other nu-metal bands.
|
I like Incubus, who i dont consider nu metal but a lot of people do.
I like The Deftones too, but other than that, i hate a lot of nu metal, oddly enough a lot of it is still played on the radio, and i don't even know people who still like those bands. |
Incubus, and nu-metal never crossed with me. I've never even heard them compared as nu-metal.

I used to like all of those nu-metal bands, then one day I turned 13 and saw them for what they are. However Disturbed is trying new things, and Slipknot as much as I HATE them, are also trying to move away from the nu metal stuff.

agreed people

You people are so music retarded and instead of embracing what you listened to you seem to be embarassed about it. You end up missing out on alot of music.
