Songs You're Ashamed To Not Like

sonicl · 12.15.2006, 05:11 AM

What songs do you NOT like that it would ruin your indie cred if people got to hear about it?

screamingskull · 12.15.2006, 05:22 AM

pretty much the whole of Bad Moon Rising. sorry.

sonicl · 12.15.2006, 05:23 AM

That's cool. Two Hail Marys and an Our Father and your sin will be forgiven.

Thomas Moronic · 12.15.2006, 05:48 AM

I never really got into Talking Heads. I'm not ashamed though.

fishmonkey · 12.15.2006, 06:29 AM

i DO NOT like Dinosaur Jr.

is that what you mean?

sonicl · 12.15.2006, 06:32 AM

It depends whether you feel your not liking them damages your indie cred. And whether you have come to my confessional to seek absolution. Only the truly penitent will receive absolution.

RdTv · 12.15.2006, 06:33 AM

Yeah, me too with the Dinosaur Jr., maybe I should listen to the entire catalog again, but I think the best chance of me liking their stuff is going to be on Bug.

sonicl · 12.15.2006, 06:35 AM

Bless you, my child. Your attempts to reconcile yourself give you great credit.

REM, Talking Heads and Franz Ferdinand share a thing for me : their music itches.
Do I wanna repent? Well uh... No.

But I have a problem, Father :

A song I'm ashamed to like/dislike/like/dislike/like is Blockbuster by Jesus Lizard. The music is close to excellent but I can't get over the lyrics.

This is getting me confused.

sonicl · 12.15.2006, 07:30 AM

My child, it is no sin to dislike Franz Ferdinand, for the Good Book warns against the worship of false idols.

Your crisis of faith regarding Blockbuster is one upon which you must meditate, for it is only by prayer and contemplation that you will find the true answer.

For my own part, I felt almost terminally uncool at ATP for not being in the least bit interested in seeing Magic Markers, Wolf Eyes, 16 Bitch Pile-Up, Prurient...

what are you into exactly?

I'm a sucker for music that I have at least half a chance of being able to hum. Either that or drifty-ambient kinda stuff.

sonicl · 12.15.2006, 07:57 AM

I'll check it out over the weekend and report back.

i saw em a few years ago on the sonic nurse tour. guitar driven ambient noise. very minimalistic, no musical boundaries really being pushed, but not exactly boring either.

if ya find any stuff, let me know.

I just listened to a few clips on the Aquarius Records website. I wasn't too keen on the stuff from "A Hole Is True", but I liked what I heard from "Halve Maen". Life would have been so much easier if my preference had been the other way round.

The Smiths

Trasher02 · 12.15.2006, 05:49 PM

I'm suprised to see how many people dislike Dinosaur jr.
I think they're quite nice.
