Say the most blasphemic (sp?) things you think (for real no funny guys) about music.
I think Beck has a single good song on each of his album and the others are crap.
I also think Coldplay is an absolute bore and that Chris Martin is stupid.
I don't think AC/DC deserves any of the praise they get.
coldplay is overrated
thanks for this thread, I have been wanting to say this for a while
Quote from: GingerI don't think AC/DC deserves any of the praise they get.
Totally. :yabbse-thumbup:
Pavement would be great if Stephen Malkmus wasn't an atrociously bad singer.
And Modest Mouse would be great if they were a completely different band that sounded nothing like they actually do.
Whiskeytown Sucks....and ryan adams will forever suck
Coldplay is offensive
and the postal service is atrocious crap
Music Confessions:
Elliott Smith is kind of like having a friend of a friend record me some songs he wrote on his guitar and when he gives me the tape I listen to it once and forget about it.
Michael W. Smith's Change Your World is a really good pop album.
Ween has like three songs that don't make me want to hang myself to escape the jarring noises and discordant inanity.
Danny Elfman writes better "Main Themes" than he does entire film scores (as a general rule).
i dont get sonic youth.
music confessions:
sigur ros sucks...boring....
pavement sucks but malkmus solo owns
wilco [while not my favorite band] is the best american band now.
if you dont like the flaming lip's, "do you realize?" then you suck
nick cave sucks
i was never the type of guy who thougth marilyn manson was cool...i always new he was a douche
death cab for cutie is awful
devendra banharth is awful
coldplay is absolute shit
decemberists/bloc party/postal service suck
layne staley has the coolest most underrrated voice ever..
pink floyd's the wall is the greatest album ever..
hendrix is overrated
mule variations sucks
weezer always was gay
the strokes are borign and every song sounds the same
nirvana is fuckign trash..always have been
sex pistols suck ass and the whole punk music scene has always been annoying shit
neil youngs"i beleive in you" makes me cry..its so damn good
ahhhhhh, that felt good.......thanks pas
the yellow submarine movie is better than the album.
All of Green Day's albums blow ass except for their most recent effort. It surprised the hell out of me.
I loathe Lynyrd Skynyrd to an extreme.
And for that matter, I'm not too fond of a lot of the old rock that's being popularized now by stoner teenagers (as mentioned above AC/DC etc.).
Radiohead will never be as good again as they once were. They will make middling albums with a few good songs and a lot of filler as they become less and less relevant. Millions of fans will hold on anyways.
BAM!
We're all going to hate each other by the end of this thread...
:yabbse-thumbup:
From what I've heard, Jon Brion comes off as a total asshole.
I think Linkin Park is a good band
Brian Wilson's Smile is a complete pile of shit and half the stuff he wrote is fuggin nonsense.
Arcade fire is NOT "like, the best band ever"
Bright Eyes can only write decent music HALF the time
I find Mogwai (the band) absolutely boring
well I've been saying this for a while now, maybe someone will take me seriously here.
conor oberst is a poser, with catchy melodies and blue state politics and clever rhymes (no cleverer than Eminem though) and his is all shallow posturing, trying to subvert "middle class WASP America" by referencing it every other song in mocking tones. To call him the next Bob Dylan is like when people were calling iverson the next Michael Jordan (though Iverson is much better at basketball than Oberst is at singing). Not only that his music is just dumb technically, but they're fun to listen to as catchy whiny pop tunes.
Mos Def is a way more likely candidate for the next Bob Dylan, complete with causing a scene in the new york underground, switching to electric guitar, and a shitty film career.
conor oberst is as talented as jack johnson, just with better taste in music.
The White Stripes could really use a bass player and a better drummer.
Coldplay is a pretty good band (it's way more blasphemous at this point to like them than to shit on them). So is Death Cab for Cutie. Jack Johnson is good music for surfers who hit their heads on rocks a few too many times and need something to help them sleep.
Squints has horrible taste.
I don't understand Hard Rock/Heavy Metal.
Why would anyone enjoy being yelled at?
I prefer cover versions of Postal Service songs.
I used to really like Creed.
the dave matthews band hasn't been great since before these crowded streets, and everything from that point back is getting boring if it isn't already.
i know that there aren't really any other dave fans here, but please try to refrain from the "they always sucked" stuff.
The Xixax Band will never happen... :yabbse-lipsrsealed:
i'm bored shitless by almost every attempt at "modern rock" -- all that forgettable indie bullshit with no personality beyond their appearance and abysmal lead singers -- including, but not limited to, pretty much everything modage likes.
i can't wait for the whole fad to be DEAD so we can all laugh about it.
:yabbse-angry: pm me a list of a few songs (a mixtape, if you will) polka, since your taste is so impeccable..i'm interested..
Coldplay still sucks

Ozzy Ozbourne is one of the worst musicians I've ever heard.
AC/DC is pure shit.
I can't listen to the Smiths for very long because of how crappy the music sounds. Morissey's voice is fine, and I prefer his solo stuff... but their music is so bland.
Sublime gets boring.
Deerhoof sucks.
The Beatles aren't worth listening to in their Beatlemania phase.
Jimi Hendrix is amazing, don't get me wrong, but after a while, the songs all sound the same.
Bob Dylan is grossly overrated.
Tool's only good album is Lateralus.
I love their lyrics, but no matter what, I just can't get into the Talking Heads.
"Whatever Happened" was great, but mostly the Strokes put me to sleep.

More Musical Confessions:
The Cure is boring in the same way depression is boring.
U2 can't stop poverty, no matter how many half-assed echoy-riff rock records they record (or how much they charge for tickets).
The guys in Death Cab for Cutie look really dumb. Especially the short, smirking, balding guy with the flat hair that curls on his temples.
"Dry the Rain" is the only good song on The 3 E.P.'s.
Aimee Mann likes to write the same song over and over again; some times are better than other times...but they're still the same song.
Dave Matthews needs to stop it with the live albums. When did they become that great a live act anyway?
I have never understood what people seem to love about Automatic for the People. Does anyone really like the song "Ignoreland" (hey, hey hey hey!)? "Find the River" is a great song, though. Oh, and apart from "Losing My Religion" and "Texarkana," Out of Time sucks ass. R.E.M. hasn't had a great, cohesive album that wasn't also terribly uneven since they released Green back in '88.
Despite what Pitchfork Media might claim, the musical world would be exactly the same had Interpol or The Arcade Fire or Animal Collective never come along. The only difference is a bunch of indie kids might not be pretending to like Sung Tongs.
Tom Waits has a voice like a cow with a smoker's cough (and all the music in the world can't make it any better...or acceptable).
Jazz is dead and has been for a while.
I was with you (especially on U2) until your last two points.
Jazz isn't dead, just underappreciated.
Quote from: WalrusJazz isn't dead, just underappreciated.
And stagnant. Don't forget stagnant.
the rolling stones is the most overrated piece of shite band ever.
U2 will never make an album as good as "achtung baby".
i will never understand people why they like that emo shite.
the bravery: the most shameful thing from u.s.a.
coldplay used to be great but now they're like bee gees or something.
i hope that weezer splits up real soon.
i hope that the osbourne family catches on fire and dies. basically for letting that fucked daughter record music.
- i like all bands that start with vowels
- any song over 10 minutes long is the best song ever
- mozart was overrated
- i love bands that have kickass album covers
- the beatles were only good in the early 60's
- i LOVE tom jones
- roy orbison and buddy holly thought they were cool cause of their glasses. they were not cool then and they're not cool now.
- i think local indie bands are great and the fact that they all sound the exact same is even greater
- the next bob dylan is dead
- despite what everyone says, beethoven's 9th symphony is NOT his best work. its a toss-up between his 3rd and 5th.
wowowowow, fucking excellent thread.
i disagree with almost everything neon said, agree with what pete said (it sounds kind of lame but i've also refered to mos def as the next bob dylan, mostly because i got into mos def before i got into dylan), i also think linkin park has good stuff (sans voices they can be decent) but here are some of my contributions on the music scene overall:
-sonic youth has lots of stuff i don't like, but when they're good, they're pretty amazing. that's kind of their charm i think
-there's always good music.
- there is no longer a moral dilemma in getting an album or a complete discography off the web.
-grunge fans tend to be hostile.
-french music is cute, but it sucks.
-local bands are tedious.
-music videos do miracles to some songs (ie coffee & tv. crap song, awesome video)
-fa(d)(n)s can make me hate a band.
- based on what i read on the article i posted at the ipod thread, music snobs are a different sort of racists.
-people don't seem to really care about music.
-something taz said once , songs can be simple but not stupid. he was talking about the white stripes.
- brazilian music kicks ass (not bossa nova)
-compilations/mix tapes/soundtracks can be an artform.
-i think every genre turns into pop once we hear it.
-about the libertines , that Stripes quote: "It just isn't that cute anymore."
i love these quotes:

I was almost impressed with My Chemical Romance's cover of Under Pressure.
Kiss sucks so hard.
The 80s sucked, except for Rush, Michael Jackson, Metallica, and Huey Lewis. Why are bands trying to sound like that again!?
I've never gotten indie rock and have tried my damnedest, I won't worship that god.
I secretly hate the Mars Volta live, but I love their cds so much.
The Streets are more amusing to me than actually good. "Yo fit but muh gosh, dun you know et"
I love 311, but I avoid talking about them on here because they're talented.
I tend to loathe nonmusician's taste in music, but love it when we do agree.
The White Stripes do not need a better drummer, because it would ruin what I like about them, and Jack White is the next Dylan.
Punk is bad. You can go to a live show, feel energy, mosh, enjoy yourself... but really, it's totally untalented.
Bob Marley is all right in small doses, but Reggae in general puts me to sleep.
Green Day is yet to hit a high point in their career.
Who decided that Elvis was talented?
Quote from: RegularKarateBrian Wilson's Smile is a complete pile of shit and half the stuff he wrote is fuggin nonsense.
Brian Wilson didn't write that fuggin nonsense. Van Dyke Parks did while he was all hopped up on Benzedrine. The cd is forgetable but everyone should see Beautiful Dreamer

Have some cool clear water

(Water coolin' me)
...
From the mountains on down to the sea
Cool water keeps on coolin' me
When the nights are too hot to keep cool
I keep on dreamin' 'bout a swimmin' pool
When I'm just too hot to move
Cool cool water is such a groove
In a shady spot when I'm layin' down
Only thing movin' are the ants on the ground
When I'm thirsty and I reach for a glass
Cool water tastes like such a gas

Quote from: WalrusGripes
Bob Dylan is grossly overrated.
This is the only one I feel the need to pick out. I think you're wrong. If you can say this then you should listen to more of his catalogue of songs.
A few of my own:
Pink Floyd bores me to death.
The Eagles bore me to death.
George Thorogood songs make me want death.
Stevie Nicks voice is awful. I can't stand anything she sings. It's like nails on a chalkboard. Same with Billy Corgan. Could never get into the Pumpkins because of his annoying voice.
I like Britney Spears.
Phil Collins. Sucks. "In the Air Tonight" has to be one of the worst song ever created. sleepfest.
It confuses and saddens me that my generation's representation for rock band is Radiohead. Of course it could be worse, it could be Linkin Park or such.
Confessions....
I really like this Keane song "Bend and Break"....I don't know how to feel, they performed it on Leno, which I caught accidentally. They were really good. Are they considered lame or derivative? If so, I should feel guiltier.
Anyone who doesn't like System of a Down doesn't have a sense of humor.
The Mars Volta should be the next Zeppelin, but they're more like Zeppelin 2.0. Radiohead is the next Zeppdylan.
I don't know what defines "good" music and I don't think anyone else does either.

Wow.
Those responses are interchangeable, actually. Good taste really
is subjective.
Coldplay is beautiful (I'd be hard pressed to think of a more poignant or epic song than A Rush of Blood to the Head). X&Y really grows with each listen. Now
there's real heresy.
Next to Maynard James Keenan, the best voice in rock today is Brian Moulko of Placebo. Next to that, it would be Raine Maida of Our Lady Peace, but I'm talking early Our Lady Peace, back when he let his falsetto roam free.
Overproduction is the antithesis of emotion. I want that tattooed backwards on Seal's forehead so he sees it every time he looks in a mirror.
Coldplay is beautiful music, and while "X&Y" still hasn't won me over, I could listen to their others all day long. And Keane, while being very, very derivative, has a good sound and they write songs with great melodies.
If the Von Bondies could write an entire album that's as good or almost as good as "C'mon C'mon", there would be no need for the Vines, the Hives, or the Strokes. Actually, there's already no need for the Hives.
i hate australian music.
any australian artist that makes good music (eg. nick cave) is not considered australian cos seriously aussie music is defined by how shit it is.
as much as i love Takk and Ágætis Byrjun... the more i listen to it, i think that ( ) is kind of pretensious and generally not their best work.

Billy Corgan is a hack.

Hardly. I am, however, partial to A Song For The Lovers. Another song with epic feel (to go off on a tangent for a moment): Taxi by Harry Chapin.
Yeah, the pair of Taxi songs by Chapin are pretty amazing pieces of storytelling.

Blind Melon is underrated. You should all listen to them. Stop only listening to No Rain.
here's one
The Doors are overrated. They're a medicore rock n roll band. I think we all went through the phase were we thought Jim Morrison was the quintessential front man/god, wanted a pair of leather pants, and burned insense.
who likes music anyway
Quote from: BethieThe Doors are overrated. They're a medicore rock n roll band. I think we all went through the phase were we thought Jim Morrison was the quintessential front man/god, wanted a pair of leather pants, and burned insense.
I had a major argument with someone about this in my radio class. He was going off about how amazing Jim Morrison was, and he said that if I didn't like the music, he was at least a great poet.
One line of Morrison's poetry stands out to me: "Her cunt gripped me". I'd say that is pretentioius and exploitive. Read me! because I can say cunt and shock you.
Anyways, as for the music... I went through a period in grade 9 where I loved it (or thought I should), truth is, The Doors are all style and no substance. And the organ playing in all of the songs, is pretty bad.
Quote from: RegularKarateI think Linkin Park is a good band
which negates:

I find Mogwai (the band) absolutely boring
No, it doesn't... see, you don't know... that's the problem.
You assume that because it's pretty much a boy-metal band that all the cool kids hate that they're a bad band.
While I don't own any of thier albums (not even downloaded), I recognize that they are talented. They play tighter live (caught them on television) than most bands who are considered more talented by people who dismiss them could ever play.
And I'm totally down with Bethie... she's right about Blind Melon and The Doors (never liked them for a second).
blind melon's "holyman" is great
Quote from: RegularKarateThey play tighter live (caught them on television) than most bands who are considered more talented by people who dismiss them could ever play.
Talented does not necessarily equal good. See: 311.
Although, Linkin Park-wise, the song "Breaking the Habit" is pretty fucking great. They're
soooooo damn over-produced, though.

This is all true. And I never said they were a "Great" band...just good. I just feel that people shit on them more than necessary... focus that hate on someone who deserves it more.
and some of the songs are "fun"... overproduced? certainly, but fun.

The Backstreet Boy's "All I Have to Give" is one of my favorite songs. Oh my god the breakdown with the 3 part harmony of "everything i have is for you" is such a great moment. I don't know if its brilliant or terrible but i love every second of it.

I think that they were the Simple Plan of the '70s somewhat and now they are seen like a Andy Wharol-esque thing.

There is a very big difference between 'catchy' and 'good.'
If we're gonna argue about stuff here...

That Justin Timberlake song has been stuck in my head before, which makes it catchy, but I still think the song is a piece of shit...
Justin Timberlake's songs are catchy like AIDs unfortunately.

Maybe from here on out we should only post about music we hate. Save the guilty pleasures for a different thread.
I am rarely so boldly controversial but here goes:
I get annoyed nearly every time I hear someone say something is "overproduced". Most of the time people don't know what they are talking about and I am reluctant to take them seriously. If they would just say that they wish it were produced differently or say how they wish it sounded more like whoever, that would make more sense to me. If you aren't a producer/engineer etc. you really don't know how much that track was worked over compared to something else.
I also usually dislike the "overrated" word as well. Most people use that term inappropriately.
cecilia is overrated and overproduced
Arcade Fire = Overrated

Seal. When people say something is "overproduced", they're referring to Seal.
>i think bjork is merely okay
>i tend to hate [or cant take them seriously] musicians that are younger than me [i.e. 27]
>i hate heavy metal
> i dont like white trash rock [golden earning, ac/dc, bad religion, bad company, edgar winter group, damn yankees, lynard skynard, etc.]
> lenny kravitz is a douche
> phish fans suck
This isn't scandalous, but neon's thing about phish fans made me remember...I was at a Porcupine Tree show Saturday, and this couple standing in front of me started making out during this hard rock instrumental called Mother and Child. They weren't even singing along or rocking the fuck out. MAKE OUT SOME FUCKING PLACE ELSE.

Badfinger, maybe? :yabbse-undecided:
Nevermind. I thought he meant Bad Company I missed that he already said that.
Yeah, I don't think Bad Religion fits in with that lot at all, but I don't care for them that much either. I would have liked them in the late 80's early 90's if I had known them then, I used to like Social Distortion back then and they are kinda similar to me.
Badfinger is way off of that lot too to me. I lump them with Wings, Cheap Trick, Raspberries, Big Star, etc. I admit to appreciating that stuff quite a bit, sometimes I liken my taste to a 50 year old man. Jonesy's jukebox is one of my favorite shows on the radio.

haha, damn, i dont know what i was thinking i meant to say steppenwolf [or who ever sings that bad to the bone] song or born to be wild...i got them groups mixed up. i actaully beleive that the song 'bad to th ebone" is the ultimate whoite trash song. at state fairs where all white trash seem to congregate you would alwway ssee those wife beater t-shirts with a airbrushed pitbull on th eback looking all scary and shit with a big bone in his mouth and the shirt was bad to the bone. thats the type of trash i was talking about. didnt mean to say bad religion.

Ah. Yeah, Steppenwold did "Born To Be Wild". George Thorogood did "Bad to the Bone".
