God I love metal.

Metal and Indie music is the very reason why I wake up, no seriously, if it wasn't for my Metal CD for an alarm clock.. I wouldn't wake up.


Started liking metal a couple years ago, same for Indie. Before that I was all big into Anti-Flag, etc.

Going to Minus The Bear concert Wednesday 28th! Then Yet Another Prayer on October 1st!

I don't like indie,particularly hate Muse if you can call them indie,certainly can't call them Metal!

oh?

Welp, you're no fun!

and radio head is a good band too....

but metal is better.
 
You know, there's a difference between being "good" and being talented.

Coldplay is good, not talented. John Mayer is talented, but not good. Metallica (old) is good and talented. The list can continue if you like.

Punk rock? Sure, I like it, but then again I like cold toilet seats and smashing my hand in a car door. ROTFL!!!

Just kiddin...I think there's good music to be found in every genre.

How about the Anti-Nowhere League? Is that punk? Or the Vapors? Is that punk, or are you talking Sex Pistols..Ramones...etc?

I heard of a band called the Ramonatures...kind of a cross between the Ramones and the Ventures...they did all Ramones songs instrumentally...I can see it working...LOL.

I liked The Bends. Don't know that I'd call Radiohead lame, but I think they peaked as a band a bit early and then got full of themselves.

I like quite a few Brit bands, myself. Supergrass is right up there. Lots of the shoegazer stuff of the 90s appealed to me, too.

I actually don't mind Supergrass,at least they aren't depressing like Radiohead and Coldplay,the most gloomy were the Verve,but they were quite good.
Mind you I like Pink Floyd and you don't get any gloomier than them!
How did the gig go t125eagle?

As far as I'm concerned Radiohead is one of the few reasons there is even a need for a recording industry anymore. The Bends is the finest album made in the last 25 years. Coldplay, The Verve, Supergrass - they're good bands, but Radiohead is a phenomena. Like the Beatles. That's my opinion anyway.

I suppose I just like my music a little more upbeat,except Pink Floyd and you know I'm on a downer if I listen to them(usually after a few to many libations),
they are great though!

I know what you mean, Radiohead is kind of "down low" music, but oddly enough it makes me feel happy. Go figure. I respond to their music in a very visceral way. It gives me goosebumps. I understand all that is very subjective and personal though. I'm just really happy to have them around.

Love the Radiohead, The Bends is one of my all time favorites, a true work of art from beginning to end. I actualy didn't like Radiohead that much when they first came out, I didn't dislike them I just didn't care realy, exept for Creep was a good song. When The Bends came out I couldn't stop listening to it, the rest of their new albums are good but not like The Bends.

Yeah, Pablo Honey wasn't exactly a stellar debut, but I like it. I know what you mean about The Bends though, I still can't stop listening to it, lol. OK Computer was excellent, too. Their later albums, while I do like them very much, I will admit don't exactly move me like The Bends, but then they are so different. I just prefer guitar rock to electronic music period. Still, I find those albums, (Kid A, Amnesiac, Hail to the Thief, etc.) incredibly infectious, too. There's just something about those guys.....
 
I'm into Sum 41 (their old cd's), Hawk Nelson, Dead Poetic, and Showbread.

you are smart when it comes to politics but why did you post if you don't like it??

just kidding! LOL. i think rap is annoying, but that's just me.
 
How could I forget.....I didn't mention another band that came out of the punk era (but who are not punk, per se) and that is The Police. Outlandos D'Amour and their other early albums, Regatta de Blanc and another one....started with a Z....they were fantastic.

I like the POlice well enough, but my own favorites from that same era are xtc and the Soft Boys. xtc was a lot punkier in the beginning, but Andy Partridge developed into nothing less than a songwriting god over the years. The man must write hooks in his sleep, he sets them up so well. And of course, Robyn Hitchcock is better than most drugs.

or at least most I've tried.

All very good points, yes indeed. Robyn Hitchcock....mmmm, good.
