What kind of music?

[Deltron3030]

What kind of music do most people like on here? I'll write some CD reviews but i mainly listen to Indie/Alt/Garage rock. So , i won't waste my time writing reviews if no one likes those kinds of music. Holla back.

[Dobbs]

The most recent Flaming Lips album, "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots", kicks ass.

[SixStrangSmoker]

since i play guitar in a band, i am partial to the guitar gods

Zakk Wylde, Slash, Dimebag Darrel, Kirk Hammet, James Hetfield, Randy Rhoads, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jimmy Hendrix:D

[Tsynr]

Cake, Luscious Jackson, Perfect Circle (and Tool apparently). Some others too, but I've realized that it's fun to type what you like, but boring as hell to read what other people are into...odd.

I don't know if anyone cares or not but A Perfect Circle is going on tour and if you like them in the least I recommend you go.

[SixStrangSmoker]

IM GOING NEXT MONTH MAN

[tjamick]

i listen to alot of classic rock like zeppilin, hendrix, the doors, pink floyd, the greatful dead i also listen to indie aswell as primus and phish.

[RizzleMcIzzle]

I listen to my parents argue downstairs while I cry my eyes out and question my existence...

[tjamick]

my parents are divorced and i live with my dad in his bungalow.

[RizzleMcIzzle]

lucky bastard... :rolleyes:

[CptPlanet]

i like how mr. guitar god up there misspelled jimi hendrix's name.

this place did fucking suck. i'm glad we showed up to take out the trash.

[AndersLevant]

The Postal Service, The Unicorns, The Shins, The Silver Jews, The Mountain Goats, Stephen Malkmus, The New Pornographers, Bright Eyes, Daniel Johnston, Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, Rogue Wave, Death Cab for Cutie, The Decemberists, The Fiery Furnaces, Lyle Lovett, Neutral Milk Hotel, Pavement, Radiohead, Rilo Kiley, The Walkmen, Willie Nelson, and, most importantly, Switchfoot. By the way, I'm shitting you about Switchfoot. They suck.

[apotatojudge]

It's so sad, I guess, or pathetic, but I stopped paying too much attention in music when I became really enthralled in comedy.

I adore anything that has to do with Dave Grohl.
Foo Fighters, Nirvana, Queens of the Stone Age, ...even Probot.

Tool.

The band that gets most of my attention these days is A Perfect Circle...

After that it gets really random... I'm fucking into Classic Rock big time.

Boston is coming to town and no one will go with me.


Ack. Good-bye.

[CptPlanet]

Yeah I just saw APC a couple months ago and I've seen Tool thrice.

Dredg, Pinback, thingy, pretty much anything having to do with Rob Crow, Far, Sleepytime Gorilla Museum and A WHOLE TON OF OTHER SHIT! JUST ASK ME! :)

[agent_PUNT]

I like any song that denies the Holocaust ever existed. Except for that album Boston put out called "The Holocaust never happened".

That album was too self-grandizing.

I also like any Christmas album that Barbara Streisand puts out. She is a true jewish princess.

[tjamick]

the best song ever is "jesus freak" by DC talk. another good one is called "hulkimaniac" by hulk hogan.

[Pali]

You all like angry music.

[AndersLevant]

I have three Ted Leo albums. I just forgot to include him the other night. This summer I saw the Shins in Houston -- because their Austin performance was rained out, and which, by the way, has now been rescheduled for when I'll be out of town -- and the Unicorns in Austin.

[Stabby]

i like songs about hamburgers rockin'

[mad tv fan]

i like the songs that mario used to sing...

EVERYBODY

swing your hands!
swing your hands!

[agent_PUNT]

Fuck that is nasty.

[apotatojudge]

I'm here for you, man!

[Treebeard]

I'm here as well.

[terris]

ive opend for ted leo before


and as far as much, i listen to anything that will make me seem like a music snob to people who arent into indie music persay, and i listen to enough mainstream stuff to make indie music fans think im a loser, its a nice balance

lately ive been listening to some of the following:

boards of canada, daft punk, don cabellero, pink floyd, trans am, sigur ros, horse the band, linkin park, deftones, hum, the beach boys, rush, kraft werk, dillinger escape plan

ya music is fun to listen to

[Dart Shitter]

who the fuck is mike patton and why are there 600,000 fags on the internet who think i should give a shit about him?

[Dart Shitter]

He's your daddy

[klaus_kinski]

Mike Patton is great. He rose to fame when he joined Faith No More in 87 or 88 and released the album "The Real Thing." At the time he was working with one of the weirdest bands of all time, Mr. Bungle. Since then he has been in a ton of bands and worked with a ton of artists. I saw him in a band called Tomahawk a while back here in NYC and my mind was blown. He is a fantastic front-man.

[Stabby]

my for real favorite band are the Murder City Devils and I totally think he says 'no more Mr. Show' in the song Dead by christmas.

[agent_PUNT]

What are the real lyrics Stabby?

[Trevor K]

I prefer Metal Classical

[apotatojudge]

my (ex) boyfriends (ex) band opened up for yellowcard in austin before they were "big", and then another more "popular" but "legitamitely talented" band that escapes me. oh, the ataris.

[agent_PUNT]

did you date him because he was a starving rock star and that's cool, or was it because you were young and naive? or both?

I once got to judge a high school band competition at Tulip Festival. One of the many perks of working at a record store.

I never tasted such power.

The other judge was some Tuba player from Austria... sadly no one ever touched his asshole

[apotatojudge]

"young" and "naive" described me once, yes. but now i am "bitter" and "pissed off" and "want my guitar back" and "want the rest of the money you owe me after i paid for your MIP on the spring break trip you didn't want me to go on in the first place"

[Rabot]

Oh man, any new wave, most punk, and all kinds of 80's music and clasic rock. Oh, and so me hip-hop...My favorite bands are...Queens of the Stoneage, At the Drive-in, The Mars Volta, and my favorite, Oingo Boingo, oh don't forget Duran Duran.

well I tried to post the content of my Ipod as a joke, but that fucking backfired caues it was like 6 times the maximum post size...fuck, now I'll just go masterbate in the corner wile listening to "Rio"

[Trevor K]

Weird Al
Iron Butterfly
Journey
Snow
Manheim Steamroller..

Suck a Duck

It's a BAD sign when you have to resort to slapping contrariness into your song to try and seem clever.

Too heavy, too light, too black or too white
Too wrong or too right, today or tonight
Cumbersome
Too rich or too poor, she's wanting me less
And I'm wanting her more
The bitter taste is cumbersome

You can look at the menu but you just can’t eat
You can feel the cushions but you can’t have a seat
You can dip your foot in the pool but you can’t have a swim
You can feel the punishment but you can’t commit the sin

It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought...it figures

OR

I'm free but I'm focused
I'm green but I'm wise
I'm hard but I'm friendly baby
I'm sad but I'm laughing
I'm brave but I'm chickenshit
I'm sick but I'm pretty baby

I’m feeling that I’m sober
Even though I’m drinking
I can’t get any lower
Still I feel I’m sinking

You say "Yes", I say "No".
You say "Stop" and I say "Go, go, go".

Yuck.

On the next episode of "Shitty, Shitty Lyrics", we'll discuss songwriters who try to cover up the fact that they don't have anything to say by telling you what kind of music it is you're listening to WITHIN THE FUCKING SONG!! Our special guest speaker will be Mr. George Clinton. Should be a treat. Join me then, won't you?

[cue closing theme: "Everybody Have Fun Tonight (Everybody Wang Chung Tonight)"]

i just have to say that badly drawn boy is the best!

also guster is REALLY good plus they're really big mr show fans even though their crowd is mostly annoying college kids and jews.

my wife is really into rufus wainwright...he's gay.

I don't like to keep score. I just play for fun.

Back when those two Alanis songs I referenced were UN-A-FUCKING-VOIDABLE, my brother & I were riffing on some new lyrics for her. The only one I can remember now is, "I've got shoes on but I'm barefoot". Le'me see if I can come up with a few more on the spot here:

I'm dead but I'm living
I'm gay but I'm straight
I'm hung but I've got no pee-pee

My stinky smells pretty
I like Twix, 'cept I don't
I'm dry but I'm also greasy

It's fun. Try it. Or don't. It's entirely up to you.

[CptPlanet]

HAHAHAHA


I'm smart but retarded
lame but I'm wicked cool
I'm sick but I'm healthy BAAAABY

[3v3+Z]

I had this other Alanis idea, but I never got a chance to use it and now it's too late. Remember that video she had where she was naked and they blurred out that thing women have where my penis is? I thought it'd be funny to do a video like that and to give myself a ridiculously large cock, since it's blurred out anyway. And I could do shit like swing it around like a zoot suit dude would do with his pocket watch, then throw it over my shoulder, maybe trip over it at some point. You get the idea. And I've got a body like Eddie Deezen (http://www.eddiedeezen.com/), so me naked if funny enough in itself.

[creator of AM]

i think gwar did something like that actually... not to piss on your parade because it is a good idea. plus it reminds me of the "detachable penis" song by that one band .... i can't think of their name... but it was good and stuff

[Tommy]

I've recently started listening back to my old Cake CDs.

Nostalgia... ah...

Nostalgia... ah...
We know of an ancient radiation
That haunts dismembered constellations
A faintly glimmering radio station
While Frank Sinatra sings "Stormy Weather"
The flies and spiders get along together
Cobwebs fall on an old skipping record


LOVE it!!!
