Bands that are quite clearly sh*t, but people (usually young people) seem to like. - Page 4

I don't hate the police, I just never got into them. Never really sat down and rocked out. I don't like pictures of Sting reading Jung, shirtless. They had some cool guitar lines, regardless.

fucking sting. I hate sting.

I think contributing to this thread only contributes to the general air (that word again) and sanctimonious wankery which makes this forum such a load of cunt.

Having said that, I'm still perpetuating the nonsense. But then I'm happy.

People listen to things. I generally think you lot listen to shit, but I'm sure the regulars are aware of that.

It's nice to see Mr A. S. Park defending Korn. They were alright, and VERY important within an (admittedly narrow) context. Kids listen to what they listen to, innit? We weren't all born with amazing taste, and the majority of people fight against the trajectory of decent music. This doesn't include myself. What a prick, eh?

Stupid thread, stupid question. You obviously don't even know any kids, and if you do, they wouldn't want to be friends with an old bitter fart like you. Bon Jovi? Duran Duran? When was the last time that you got out of your house and talked to some living and breathing kids? The 80's were over a long time ago, you know? There are indeed young people who listen to Bon Jovi or Duran Duran, sure, but I doubt that they are priority bands for the majority of them, when it comes to listening habits. And even if they were, what's bothering you so much about that? Did you miss your chance for some underage sex or something?

The Smiths

Glad i'm not the only to think that Crumb's Crunchy Delights is a dick.

The Smiths are one of my favourite bands. And no one I know listens to them, or actually knows who they are. And if they did, Morrissey would scare them away, because they would think he was gay.

I said something that Happy Birthday didn't agree with about 50 threads ago, so he tries to attack me by mentioning my band on a thread when he probably hasn't heard them before. Pretty funny stuff.

...

Anyway, "Float On" is a pretty cool song, but I think Modest Mouse has always kinda sucked. Too much barking.

But I was only doing what you usually do - posting "Scissor Shock" whenever a list of bands is required.

By the way, I think zeropumpkins loves you.
