Now that your coming to your sense, i think soon you'll renounce that too.


just a prediction.

Hm? I thought you liked them... unless you just recently changed your mind.

Well, anyway I've said it before and I'll say it again - I'm not much for music with lyrics at all, though there are some I really like. Can't think of any right off the top of my head though. For the most part, no music really bothers me except for rap and probably country, though I haven't heard much of that. That is to say of course, those are the only two I've heard that I really can't stand.

My hate towards Hip Hop after Nelly came to be was strong untill I found Mos Def. Now I only listen to East Coast Hip Hop instead of all five nations.

I like to keep an open mind about all music styles, but punk is dead, and has lost all meaning. I don't think repetitiveness has anything to do with genre, just quality. It depends on the artists. Genres are just cages. Once you decide a genre, that limits you in a lot of ways.

Almeidaboo, I tell you like I told some other Americans(continental, not US-Americans), go to Dutch rock. Kinslayer, ZKX and some other dude like it. Plus, it doesn't sound the same as American pop-rock bands. Mainly because we, the Dutch, are good lovers and don't have to sing about our gfs dumping us. You should ask me once for something.

Iīll try them out Drace...Although I made up my ears about the whole thing, Iīm always open to new stuff yīknow? Actually, when searching for new music, I go  here and download random stuff from the FTPs...thatīs whre I found Authority Zero, A Perfect CIrcle, Allister and Scary kids scaring kids, for example.

 

Umm... this is the same thing as everything. You ***** about punk being the same thing in every song, but rap, country, rock, all of those are the same too. Even the blues, it's all generic.

Disagreed. Some Bands can still outshine others, even inside a specific genre. For example Green Day, Bad Religion, Offspring. Theyīre completely different, all awesome bands, all punk rock bands. My Chemical ROmance is pretty much recent, and brought a new agressive music, inside punk rock.

Side note: fusion of genres usually makes a crappy new one (nu-metal, for instance). But "dirtying" a genre with another can be pretty good, like punk-metal. Pure genres are mostly good, but dying. Transition genres (post-grunge ---> hard rock) are between my favourites.

I need some more proof than 'all awesome'. They all use the same bogus, simple guitar riffs with the same cheesy teeny bopper lyrics.

I like some rap, like Swollen Members.

o.O

I like hip hop or metal. There is no real in between for me. So its like...either As I Lay Dying or Notorious B.I.G. (The Biggie Duets...****ing AMAZING!) in my cd player. MCR is OKAY. But thats about it. THis is the part where I would bash everything else, but I dont judge.

[Drace]

I agree, there are still good punk bands. The Bouncing Souls, Donots, Ash, Yellowcard and Autopilot Off are a few I like. But I prefer Hard Rock, Metal and Metalcore.

EDIT: While I post this, I'll post some of my favourite Dutch bands.

- After Forever
- All For Nothing
- Autumn
- Band Zonder Banaan (You could also search BZB for this)
- De Heideroosjes
- Di-Rect
- Heidevolk
- Is Ook Schitterend (Could also be found as IOS)
- Jovink & De Voederbietels (If you can't find anything with this name, try just Jovink.)
- Peter Pan Speedrock

That's one emo spankfest of a list you just compiled.
Emo isn't really a type of hardcore, it's more of a variation..
Almeidaboo, Greenday is one of my least favorite bands, but whatever floats your goat. If it makes your ears happy it's none of my concern. My Chemical Romance is pretty lousy, though. The last song I heard by them had like, no progression. It could have been 10 seconds long.

Well, compare. Compare Offspring to Simple Plan and you'll see that even though the quality doesnīt resides in complexity of the instruments (although Offspring are much more concerned than simple plan when it comes to "changing notes" hahaha), Offspring's song are more "worked on", they donīt feel all the same. Better, theyīre not all the same. You can tell itīs a pretty distinct band.

SAme for green day....you canīt find a punk band (maybe "ex" punk band, who knows...) like Green Day, just because it feels different from the mainstream punk bands of nowaday.

I used "awesome" to express my own taste, so donīt take it seriously...

Punk is a joke these days.....Its packaged....Franchise stores selling the image of discontent, in order to give monotony to individualism....

When I was young.....13-16 I was pretty punked up......It was cool....Spiky things.....Old punk music was cool.....it was the early 90's so bands like NOFX and SNFU and Lagwagon, were all shitty bubblegum punk.....we were all about the old punk rock...

I stopped dressing like a hypocrite eventually....

The reason punk is popular, is because they want it to be....if THEY make punk popular, Anarchy and revolution and social reform, become cliche.

Simple plan? Punk? HAHAHAHA!

no.

Good Charlotte?

no.

Rap.....

An equivalent comercial pimping of subculture, but imposed on Black culture....

Rap and Punk started not too far apart from  eachother....they are more similar than youd think.....

And they, today, are still pretty much the same in ratio to eachother....Only now they are both stagnant mass-produced artforms, rather than New, and grassroots, and Independant.

the only punk I listen to is the ramones.

And as george harrison said" punk is garbage, just garbage. It's so angry, And I wonder about what? Music is all about expressing how you feel, not  malicious choas"

You can't be talking about my list right now, so I'll just ignore this post of yours.
