Your Band Sucks!

[Heald]

firepokemon:

1. Muse - Never heard of Muse? Seriously? They're one of the biggest names at the moment.
2. Reel Big Fish - The most well known American punk ska band.
4. Fall Out Boy - If you've ever been to any bar or club in New Zealand, at least around this time last year, it was impossible not to hear 'THIS AIN'T A SCENE, IT'S A GODDAMN ARM RACE!'
7. Catch 22 - lesser known Punk Ska band.
8. Five For Fighting - little known pop-rock/piano rock band. Scrubs features loads of their music.
9. Franz Ferdinand - one of the biggest names in British music, about 2 years ago.
10. Lostprophets - Again, a huge name. Awesome band. Welsh, yet known all over the world.

Blademaster - your music taste is exactly like mine was when I was 10. Then I began listening to decent, contemporary music.

Also, Weasel, it is a bit weird saying Bon Jovi is cheese, considering they're the originals and the people who came after them and copied them are really considered the cheese.

And Drusie, you hate Bob Marley?! Bob Marley is awesome. It's probably because I'm a rastafarian at heart but I've never met anyone who actually hates him!

@Heald: I know, I know, but their lyrics make me laugh! They're so... cheesy! Plus they remind me of an ex who was a right prick, lol. Just can't bring myself to take them seriously.

And yeah, fp, seriously, Muse are HUGE lately. I am frankly astonished that you don't know who they are.

I AM amused at the amount of people who hate Nickelback though. Chad thingy looks like Jesus.

Hmm lets see. Ill probably get slated for some of these but im also training as a singer so a few choices are 'cos i like to sing them' rather than listen to them.

Like: (in no particular order)
1. Foo Fighters
2. David Gray (Was put down alot early in his career but a great Songwriter)
3. Take That (the new 'Man-Band' version not the cheesy older stuff)
4. Stereophonics
5. Queen (fcuking Legends!)
6. REM
7. Bryan Adams
8. Reel Big Fish
9. Will Smith (Smoother style in the oversaturated RnB market)
10. Fatboy Slim (One of those that you can name songs for ages and still have missed one)

Dislike:
1. Alphabeat (So Cheesy i can smell it)
2. Mika (Grace Kelly is ok but the guy is trying to be Freddy Mercury)
3. *Jay-Z, 50 Cent etc. Most 'Mainstream Hip-hop.
4. *Any female 'singer' where the looks, outfit and wiggling is more important than the voice. Beyonce, Rhianna etc.
5. Any band that thinks Screaming till you throat bleeds counts as music.

* = Noticable exceptions
- Christina Aguiliera. Ok her mainstream stuff (Dirrty etc) is cheesy crap. But listen to her when shes actually singing and not doing the stereotypical wiggling slapper stuff. She has a very powerfull and talented voice.
- Eminem. He may have ridden the hype train to get where he is but i think his Lyrics, especially in the later stuff are much deeper than ur average rapper talking about how many times theyve been shot or hwo many hoes they have. 'Cleanin out my Closet', 'Way i am' and 'When im gone' are really good examples.

I have never heard of Muse seriously nor any of the others. Is Fall Out Boy NZ? Because I never listen to NZ music as far as I'm concerned its all shit. I don't listen to modern music really at all, the radio stations I listen to are Solid Gold 60s and 70s music and The Coast which tends to play mostly older music and one or two cds. And bah I rarely go out, its normally only around Christmas and New Years.
