    This really should be called the work dodgers thread except that boards.ie is in general a work dodger website! :pac:

    Tag added :)

    I hope we get to 10,000 before we get a shiny new thread. Definitely bookmarking this one though, it'll be fun to read back over it.

    Agree whole heartedly Des, good people left hangin on both sides. But you're right, this isn't the place so I'll say on more.

    Damn, I don't have my e-thug poster to hand.

    Btw Neil, did you see Slipknot's new video? Fairly Stone Sour-ish I think, decent song:

    Yea i saw that, I like it. They keep maturing as they go on. Hoping those rumours of this being their last album arent true.

    I'm sure those rumours were about after Vol.3 as well though. Hope they do stay together. As much as I like Stone Sour, Slipknot win every time for me.

    I dunno, I think they're very different. "Get Inside" and "30-30-150" are both frickin awesome songs in fairness!


    The Muderdolls, now they SUCK!





    Yea it didnt work 1st time :o

    Had to post it elsewhere, couldnt resist!

    Thats the thing, the masks and the little snots that walk around in their Slipknot hoodies that they havent washed in years make it so that a lot of people write them off. Their first 2 albums were really really heavy and definitely an acquired taste but their 3rd one and what ive heard of the 4th seem to be much more accomodating to fans of different genres.

    I have their first two albums.

    The third one is miles better than the 1st 2. I love the 1st one, liked a few songs off Iowa but also HATED a few of the songs on Iowa. The third one I love from start to finish.

    I guessed that u werent a fan when u said "That Slipknot song is actually very good."


    The use of the word actually led me to think that u anticipated rubbish!

    Now why in all good health would ya do that! Fast clock = go home a few mins earlier! THINK!


    But yes, a grave error nonetheless! Lucky if u avoid a ban tbh.

    Seeing as alot of Metal seems to get posted here, I thought I would mix it up with a bit of Hip-Hop :eek: (I must be a wigger)

    Nothing too out there, so even the most hardent rocker might be able to get something out of them:

    Lupe Fiasco - The Die


    Notorious B.I.G - Juicy


    T.I Ft. Jamie Foxx - Live In The Sky


    Eminem ft. Snoop Dogg, Nate Dogg, Xzibit - Bitch Please II



    Anyway, enjoy.

    I've completed the internet for the 4th time. So quiet in work today.

    On the good news side though My floor just went from having one female out of 40 to having 12 females out of 40 due to a department switcheroo.

    Needless to say office Morale just took a jump.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    I LOVE Doggystyle and The Chronic, masterclasses in the art of Hip-Hop, imo, and yet to be surpassed.

    Eminem is also brilliant.

    Juicy is a super song!

    Im an equal opportunities music fan charlie, I like anything, as long as its good.

    You couldn't have always wondered!

    It's just been broken the last few days, something Boards-wide afaik, it's not recognising the html tags for font in sigs anymore, I think.

    oh is there a problem with the sigs, i have mine turned off because there are one or two very offensive ones and sigpo said they cant do anything about them

    seriously I noticed that about 3 weeks ago. Not joking.

    Actually charlie, to add, the best HIP-HOP out there for me is "The Roots" or "J-5"

    Both quality acts, but I could spend all day here reeling off what I consider the best. 'The Roots' would be one of my favourites though.

    Evening all.. Forgot what it was like to actually be busy in work. Used up all my Boards time yesterday when the boss was away..

    Air-con broken in the office. Wouldn't be so bad but it's an Engineering company designing Air-con equipment that i work for...

    Seems the off topic is quiet today. Youtube is blocked out and that seems to be all anyone has posted this morning. I think Pighead has affected all of Boards!! He gets 10/10 for quoting Maxi McAllister* in one of his comments on the epic feedback thread though, "it's a farce".

    *Dundalk FC fan who doused himself in petrol at FAI headquarters in protest..

    patric engineering, by any chance?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,778 ✭✭✭✭Kold


    ^^ All the above are pretty decent but this man is hip hop today. Don't let the lazy drawl put you off, lyrics, lyrical content, rhyme structure, and he's a f*cking class producer to boot. I present you with MF DOOM. Go forth and get obsessed.
