Am i the only one who cant stand pop or rock? And, no, not even the old hip ´60 ´70 OR ´80s pop or rock. Listening to electric bass n guitar makes me puke. Most lyrics do too. I´m not going to add "oh, but in a way, 60s jazz, marwin gaye, louie armstrong , the beatles (sorry ophecks), NIN, Linkin park, or limp bizkit has made a few good tracks CAUSE I HONESTLY DONT THINK SO. |

i thought i didn't like any song as well, but you can look at it as a genre and in this genre there are still some classics. i recently got all the beatle-albums on mp3 for instance and as a whole album i really dug sgt pepper, great fun with this sgt peppers lonely hearts club band song followed by with a little help from my friends, john lennon maybe was really cool and paul mc cartney maybe never really was |

I woke up this morning with Celine Dion - My heart will go on - in my head... Even sung a bit of it in the car (and nearly got punched by my fellow passagers)...suprised myself by knowing quite a few of the lyrics... Am i ashamed?...well...Yes... But it's not my fault...the office next door has only 5 CDs (Celine, Robbie W, DIDO, The (FUCKING) lighthouse family & The Corrs)... I'm infected... Please remember me in your prayers this evening... |

some people hate "IDM" {what a crappy term} and love Pop and or rock. I like a lot of "guitar" based music.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like "rock" but rock isnt wot it used to be. It's become ppl like limp bizkit, linkin park, papa roach and any other band that u see on every black hoodie around the country!.... look for bands like Soulwax, radiohead, cay, mogwai, they're good. The boring PLAIN stuff is poo poo! I'm getting into folky stuff... e.g Kings Of Convenience and Turin Brakes. Anyone else like them? |

there is little out there taht temos me, but still, the is just a small bit i like...... i like the beatles i like the talking heads i like the b-52's i like devo |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||
|
|
Woah... no.... haha... but thats ok, each to his/her own I guess. Its true... Rock isnt what it used to be, but neither is any music these days. It just depends on what you like or dont like right? I dont like the new rock stuff either.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
u gotta listen out for hip hop stuff too. Roots Manuva are great :-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Aha.. but the hip hop .... a lot of the "old sKool" rappers or artsits.... really dont enjoy what rap or hip hop has become... its like a marketing gimmic. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes yes, I only listen to Electronic music, other music bores me, and believe me, I know what I'm talking about ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
As with any area of Art, there's people who create for the right reasons & those who create for the wrong...it's fairly simple to tell em apart... Your ears are your best guide...use them well and enjoy... |

you just shouldn't look for it in the mainstream, it's always been like that, also there should be crap |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you know... there's as much SHIT electronic music as is SHIT "rock" music. and vice versa. "Listening to electric bass n guitar makes me puke" oh come on... you are talking about linkin park & bizkit... not everything with guitars are like that... you know, i could say that i hate electronic music cause i've heard some shitty trance. are you saying you don't like ANY other music than "electronic" music? or no one other than "electronic artists" have ever made any good music? i'm sorry for this long post of gibberish. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but without the mainstream there's nothing to sing (stupidly) at parties :-) there's nothing to laugh about, every1 will take things too seriously and not enjoy themselves anymore! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
very true...(baby, baby, hit me one more time...)... another good one at double speed (esp the house mix)... You know, i've forgotten whether I'm being serious or plain silly today...this worries me.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
as i was saying: there should be crap. also there should be people with crappy opinions because otherwise you wouldn't feel the urge to look for new music: if everybody had already discovered this one great new rock song it wouldn't have the exitement of being new to it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hit me baby one more time IS a classic, as is that red spandex thingie in oops i did it again |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its a bitch when u find a really good band/album/song and then it becomes REALLY popular, cos every1 thinks ur just following the crowd :-( |
||||||||

Monoid,noticed your pic...i think ive got a crush on you ....could we meet? }:> |

i like to be musically open minded, i enjoy shit like jazz, punk , idm, and indi rock , but i cant stand pop/rock, like lincon park or limpbizket and pod and shit like that, especially blink 182, they can lick my ass |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and you have to keep saying you had there album way before everybody else, i usually don't say anything about it anymore. on the contrary i always try to turn people on to new music that i've only heard of, by giving cd's away for birthdays mainly, i've also done that with other art-forms, like books: dune, das parfum, dostojewski |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
heheh blink 182 and sum 41..... they make me leave music shops! I like playing jazz music, never really listened to it that much. Just wondering, wot is idm? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mmmm.... bootlegs!! Did anyone heard the whitney Housten vs Aphex Twin bootleg on Xfm.... it was I'm Every Woman vs Windowlicker.... a classic :-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
when you feel obliged to watch mtv, i'm even glad when blink 182 comes along, or the new! and to stupid new limp bizkit, it's not that tool just keeps coming around. whats idm, indipendent music, and what that? i'm exploring classical right now, next to avant-garde dance, a lot of great melody's in there |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
good luck!! If u wanna explore something else that might surprise you.... download confession by Slipknot... it will really surprise you! My dad thort it was Jimi Hendrix hehe :-) it's on the Album Mate.Kill.Feed.Repeat which no1 seems to hav heard. It's got a few songs which arent like they're usual crap + that twat Corey Taylor wasnt in the band :-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's a bit to big to download now, don't really like jimi anyway, sorry |

it's amazing how often i come across powerpac when looking for free mp3's of aphex (i'm not a real pro on the mp3 thing, takes to much time anyway), it's a pretty horrible melody that just stays in your head, is it really aphex? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yep, it's Aphex.... But don't remind him of the fact.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah... those pop rocks suck dude... you put 'em in you mouth and they fizzle, they dont really explode and they dont as good as even sweetarts!.... oh wait.... why are you guys so hung up on labeling stuff? that is just as bad as the people who only listen to radio played stuff... ... Powerpill Pacman was a satire of the style of techno popular in the early nineties, using actual Pacman samples. cant you take a joke and have a little fun??? |

I find myself drifting away from rock as well... it's a natural progression. But the Beatles will ALWAYS be superior to everybody. They're far from just a guitar/pop band. They're magic, they're somehow the only uplifting, happy band that I like. Every other artist or band I'm into is so depressing and psychotic. |

i listen to a lot of different music but i cant say that anything gives me what ae or afx give me. i even like pod (once) or hit me baby in the version of travis and so on, but only for a short time but i listen to the rdj-album three times while my girlfriend watches tv. |

My little sister (I mean my real little sister) can sing the whole my fart will stink on (my heart will go on) by celine dion backwards. she takes each word, and spells it backwards and then sings it to the same tune. she is hilarious. joey |

pop/rock bad? there is a big difference to what you hear on the radio and what is good. i think you need to find that out for yourself b. tea especially when you use the beatles in the same sentence as limp bizzzzzzzkit. i'm with ophecks in agreeing that the beatles created the greatest and most memorable music ever. see: white album or abbey road :) and there are other bands in the "pop/rock" section of your music store that have created amazing music as well... talking heads velvet underground ...to name a few old ones... pixies pavement radiohead belle and sebastian dismemberment plan modest mouse ...to name more recent ones... IMO the best thing about intelligent pop music is that it can spread a message (usually political) to big audiences. recently, i think, radiohead has shown this with it's anti-globalisation views and i tihnk many people have picked up on this and learnt more from it. i'm off topic now... anyway b. tea if can't stand pop/rock i feel sorry for your ignorance to good music. |

Fat Kaimo: In "Electric bass n guitar" i didnt mean just Linkin Park or any of these. I played the guitar since i was like 2 (im 18), and i played in lots of bands. but when i slowly realized the complexity of electronic music, it occured to me that, this is what i want to do, and nowadays i PUKE AT ELECTRIC GUITARS. I find rock to be very dull. But i can only speak for myself. |

All music is good when done properly. Pop - prince (please dont flame me) Rock - nirvana R 'n' B - aliyah (however you spell it) hip hop - prefuse 73. The list goes on. Come on people, tolerance! |

I secretly like Britney's "I'm a Slave for you" and "I was born to make you happy". Now those are good lyrics :) It brings a smile to my face every time I hear it... |

theres quality in all genres of music, and in all types of art.. u just have to find it... but even if u do, its subjective anyway so i guess im sort of wasting my time.. |

i am starting to love pop more and more as we speak. i bought new orders latest as well as that masterpiece from mercury rev! and i'm a big smashing pumpkins (rip) fan, and they've been poppy all along, excepting many of their concerts. and i'm not ashamed. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

i have to agree with AMinal..music is very subjective. i like all types of music with the exception of country. i used to dislike hip/hop but i've heard some stuff recently that i can handle. i grew up listening to opera/classical music.....it's music for the soul for me =) i didn't buy my first rock/pop cd until i was around 17...hehehe late bloomer i know =] |

i've probably been complaining too much about mainstream. the sound of the music itself is what's crucial, not its category. |

what a ridiculous concept, all of pop and rock music being bad (or "sucks"). don't you hear any pop or rock in aphex twin? there wouldn't be any electronica w/o pop and rock. (and before the smarter of you interject and tell me rock and pop weren't the first types of music in the world or in america, i know.) there's so much amazing pop and rock music out there. i have to admit that i can't stand white radio (pop/rock format) anymore; i like about 1 out of every 10 RADIO singles (ie: not underground) on rock and pop radio. it's gotten bad, and i'm not just being grumpy. but only 1% of music (or less) is played on the radio. i'm more interested in electronica (mostly idm but also trip-hop, jungle, and just bizarre sound experiments) and hip-hop (not just underground either) now than rock and pop, but the hip-hop and electronica i like best has a warm, almost organic sound to it, and that's rock baby. rock and jazz. so anyway, open your ears and turn rock radio off - i'm sure most of the people on this board have and are willing to continue giving great recommendations outside of idm. |

titsworth says it well...... people like to bicker here like they are trying to prove a fact about some sort of music. I like to sing along to some of those crappy songs, thats what they are for, for some people... for some they love most of it and hate what we like.... its all relative in the end. |
