you listen to shit music. people that don't like it aren't trying to be "underground" as some sort of a pose. you are the one playing those games. this music is utter crap so deal with it, or do whatever. i do not care. i do not care enough to defend my own taste or denigrate yours any further.

I'm also wondering why some of the posters on this thread are complaining about the lack of a music discussion on here, when a quick run through their posts shows a continuous mantra of ''the best'', ''the worst'', ''my favourite'', ''I don't like it'' etc. Not exactly fertile ground for interesting music discussion.
