Rock N Roll/Metal....?!?!?
 

It's not a genre....it's a lifestyle.......


What do you think?

No.


gtf0 my interweb.

Man, you just need to get off this forum right now. You have no idea what the rock n' roll lifestyle is all about...

if i didnt have a ****ty centurion gig tonight i'd happily sit here watching you two squabble. And queen, this thread, what?

Haha, well i wanted to see what people thought about the whole lifestyle of the rock and metal.....not just the music part...and im thinking this guy just really likes to argue!

Hah, yes man. I will have to agree with you on that one!

It's just another ploy to reach in your pocket and make one think they're special and different and they're really not. I'm all for good music and everything but I don't think there's some common thread or anything like that.

Why do people think you have to be what you listen to? Music should become a part of you, not define the whole of you. To be honest if you think any style of music should be a lifestyle you're a bit of a 2D person.

I'm an independent person. There is no lifestyle attached to the music I listen to. I listen to the music I do because I enjoy it, not because I want to shoot up and **** like that.

I have yet to see or hear of anyone that has a life where music has filtered through into all facets of one's life.

Music can be your life but it is not a lifestyle.

Rock and roll is not a genre or a life style Its a Religion

QFT - very true.

Like the other person said, music shouldn't define you. If it does, that means you're probably close minded to other styles of music.

NO, no...i dont mean it like that...I mean...well if you havent noticed...the majority of people that listen to any type of rock genre...well they lookthe part...its just a part of who we are...not byany means did I mean that all rockers are cracked out and alchoholics!

hahaha

Well, I'm not sayin that like its a bad thing. I just think like i said earlier- If you havent noticed...people that listen to any type of rock genre, well, you can usually tell...music defines us. I think that we should all respect each others style of music whether it's Panic at the Disco, Sepultra, Megadeath, Korn, or whatever...when it comes down to it-We all just love music!

I will not respect people with bad taste. The end.

Also, how does one look like a metalhead, a punk rocker, a hippie, a stoner, a ...whatever you call a rap fan, and a rivethead all at once? I can't possibly look like my taste in music because its that diverse.

I said a lot of people. No all. But many people look the part. Rappers, for example, where baggy jeans, "bling", and "grillz." Rockers on the other hand where black clothes, have tattoos, etc etc. COuntry artists usually where southern wear. For expamle boots or cowboy hats. It's just who you are...

Let me get this straight. You come into a musical discussion forum to perpetuate stereotypes? Do you live in the real world? You should probably gain a perspective that doesn't involve watching 50 Cent, Motley Crue, and Garth Brooks music videos, and believe that's what all artists in their respective genres are about. It's pretty obvious to me you are some upper-middle class kid who knows little more about music than what he has seen on MTV. You also need to learn how to spell.

Haha, I'm not going to argue with you about this. Man, I love how people love to criticize other peoples likings/beliefs. You need to get off your high horse, and realiza that the world doesnt revolve around you. Your opinions aren't the only ones that matter, "A Perfect Sonnet"

Coming from the kid who lives in a world filled with stereotypes and MTV.

I like Shane MacGowan & Lemmy

I don`t want to look like them thanks

Everyone who likes rock looks like this

Well I quite like Hawkwind too so I guess I should paint my breasts & dance around like a twat naked.

René Descartes had this s*** nailed years ago and he wasnt even born.

"I think therefore I am."

In this case its more like "Im punk therefore I am."

I was criticising your completely unfounded "beliefs" that center themselves around media-biased cliches. I'm not on a high horse, I'm giving you a reality check.

Caulky, much?

Yeah, it gets me into a lot of sticky situations.

I sealed my bathtub with my attitude.

i can see that

...it's ****y Queen. For the love of God.

Yeah, there might be a lifestyle ASSOCIATED with heavy metal/rock'n'roll music. That hardly means that one needs to adopt that particular lifestyle in order to truly be a fan of the music itself.
