    Yeah! Cowboys From Hell sounds great on the violin! I saw it on the Pantera homevideo "3" and it was damn cool!

    Great album. I didn't mention it because it was a pretty mainstream metal album. But of course, I'd recommend it to anyone who are into metal.

    Pretty much a dead thread I know, but in case anyone tunes in now and then you absolutley must listen to Otep - debut album out last year called Sevas Tra, EP out the year before called Jihad, but I still prefer their initial 2 song demo (featuring early versions of Possesion and The Lord Is My Weapon). Plus the chick singer is real hot and can make bear noises with the best of them :)

    35. Good Charlotte
    36. Bloodhound Gang
    37. American Hi-Fi
    38. Less than Jake
    39. Violent Delight


    Here are some great albums to buy, if you appreciate talented music:

    that's sorta homopohobic donchya think? 'fagrock' and 'gay riffs'... i personally am not a fan of any of those bands coz i only listen to hardcore but just coz they suck is no reason to refer to em as 'gay'...

    I guess it is kinda homophobic, but I didn't come up with the term- it's what serious musicians and fans refer to those bands as. Anyway, just cuz I used the word "gay" doesn't make me homophobic- cuz I'm not.....
    I'm sure you have called your friend "gay" or a "****" at some stage: you don't mean anything by it. It's just a slag.
    Thats what that music sounds like though- its trying really hard to rock; but has no attitude, no style, no talent, no substance and frankly- it just sounds a bit gay: like Green Day meets Erasure or something!
    And they all look manufactured (even though most of them aren't): as if they are trying too hard to be cool with their fake tatoos, etc...

    and by that who do u mean. a little underground organisation that labels bands cause they have a phd in ROCK?
    or are they like the stonecutters.

    tbh, I dont like any of those bands mentioned, bar Less than jake, some bloodhound gang and a few of the live/acustic versions of 2 staind songs.

    U should really stop trying to tell ppl what to like or what not to, its down to opinion, whats "GAY" to some, might mean alot to others. Alot of people in this forum have quite an ignorant outlook, I admit, i have often told people that they listen to **** music, but thats really down to opinion, i dont then badger them or list out what they should and shouldnt listen to, kinda reminds me of ppl being poor or uncool if they didnt have adidas or nike in primary school.

    BTW, if u wondering what i listen to, i'll tell u have i have Deep Purple blairing out of the speakers of the cafe atm, after that I will play some Cranes, and should my mood continue then it could be some HIM or Coral.

    My Two Cents


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,130 ✭✭✭✭Karl Hungus


    Right...

    If I hear any more of 'This is gay, **** ****e' again, I'll be using my moderating stick on some heads.

    Understood?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,375 ✭✭✭Antisocialiser


    Some of my fav bands are in both of those sections. Am i a semi-gay - hmm thats pretty interesting taht u can determine sexualities by what type of music they play. Although every1 is open to there opinion making fun of people's opinion that are different to you is not acceptable. I like blink 182 and ratm and i also like big butts and i cannot lie. YOU GOOD SIR CAN SUCK MY MEMBER

    Peace out homies


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,363 ✭✭✭Mystic Fibrosis


    Zappa.
    Also, Butthole Surfer's, quite interesting.

    If you disregard rolling drums, get something by Carcass. I recommend either Heartwork or Swansong. In fact, some of their stuff is pretty funky.....

    Download Go To Hell to taste. Dilute with water.

    [/pimp] :P

    [edit: I just realized, Black Star is MEGA funky, as in disco funky. D/l it. ]

  • Moderators, Regional North East Moderators Posts: 12,739 Mod ✭✭✭✭cournioni

  • Registered Users Posts: 6,420 ✭✭✭Doodee


    yes but u went to the trouble of making out a list of bands, who by apparent musicians, are thought of as ****.
    U've also said in other threads that the moderator of this forum should learn how to play an instrument befor ehe can critise, pot,kettle,black if u ask me, I've seen ken play and he is damn good, I've also seen people play classic rock and jazz, and their fingers going so fast u cant see exactly what chords they are playing, these are some of the best musicians in teh country, and they are well know, and play great music, yet they still listen to some of the bands u have mentioned.


    back to the topic

    THE CRANES!

    great band..

    If you were able to read, you would have noticed that I said: "work on your guitar playing a bit more". I never said that he can't play an instrument at all. Don't be so quick to jump on the bandwagon....learn to spell too. Your spelling and grammar is pathetic.

    You guys are all such smarmy assh*les. Just because I'm not a nerd who is "hip" to all your "cool" internet lingo (e.g. vank, noob) you try to take the p*ss out of me on that other thread . Sorry, but I'd rather not be part of your sh*t little lingo kliq. You guys can't even take constructive criticism without retorting with:
    "noob" :rolleyes:
    "Heuston, we have a muppet"
    "LGRT"
    "BRB"
    "NE1410S"
    Where can I get the hip book that decyphers all your cool lingo?

    In some cases we just know your not worth the "constructive criticism" I know I couldn't be bothered wasting 5 minutes of my time pointing out, a, b, c, or d. So I just say shut the hell up or something short like that.
