Well, it is now official. I’m old. I have never heard of ANY of these bands. And while we’re at it, what the hell is “emo”?[/quote]

I believe it stands for “emotional rock,” but I could be wrong. Basically, it’s pussy music played by pussy guys listened to by a bunch of big vaginas. Gyno is a well known side effect of listening to too much Emo.

  1. Essentially all modern country music. “Billy has his Beer Goggles On” makes my soul weep for Waylon and Cash and what their genre has become.[/quote]

Awesome!

I also agree with your other points.

Neil Perth is a good drummer, but i FUCKING hate everything he plays. have you seen his kit lately? it looks more like a roller coaster than a drumset. i don’t give a fuck if he DOES use all the pieces…

…for everyone knocking on Green Day* and claiming “a twelve year old could write those songs,” get real. Green Day pretty much owns the pop scene right now. fame like that isn’t accidental. they’ve worked their asses off to become a pop/rock icon, and they’ve finally made it. kudos to them, even if i DO want to murder kittens every time i have to sit through the 68 minutes of “Jesus of Suburbia.” credit where credit’s due, kids…

…Dave Matthews is NOT emo. his music is another example of something i won’t listen to, but will give HUGE props to. when you can fill enough seats for an arena tour BY YOURSELF, guys, i’m sorry, but talk all the shit you want - sell some tickets to your shows, and we’ll talk about Mr. Matthews and his shortcomings…

…Fall Out Boy is a band that i consider a guilty pleasure of mine. they’re not a band i’ll carry with me into old age, but they write music that’s fun to listen to, and it’s solid pop music. again, there’s a reason that every fourteen year old girl in the country has a FOB quote as her name on myspace…

…the same goes for My Chemical Romance. they came a long way from their first album, and they wrote an extremely solid second album. i HATE that album now, but i couldn’t stop listening to it when it first came out…

…the point i’m trying to make is this: musical taste often gets skewed by a band’s exposure. for instance, a band that you might have really liked on its own will become a band you hate because EVERYONE is listening to them and you hear that goddamned single every ten seconds on MTV or the radio…

…as far as bands that i wish had never existed, i wish a fiery death on any pop star that got famous for doing NOTHING. britney spears, hilary duff - all the teenyboppers that got famous under the careful direction of a money-making producer and a hit-factory label with a team of song writers and vocal coaches to back them up…

…i also hate bands that have one or two good ideas and then rewrite that same song to stay famous. Staind is one that i hold on that level, personally. Godsmack and Nickelback, too…

…and that’s my novella.

*DISCLAIMER: i don’t like Green Day’s new music. i don’t own anything after Insomniac, nor do i intend to. bear this in mind while reading.[/quote]

Same here, fellow geezer.

Emo:

I think I hate the emo bands much less than I hate their fans.

Dashboard is actually pretty talented, I feel like they could probably make a lot better music, but that’s the niche they have and their record label wants them in.

I wish my grass was emo so it would cut itself.

All Southern hip hop…for that matter all hip hop where the lyrics focus on rims, bitches, gold teef, or “how crunk you goin’ git”.[/quote]

You just described everything I like about commercial hip hop.

linkin Park is the shit! But yeah most of the bands suck and all sothern hip hop sucks. But when you’re in the club, it will get you dancing.
When is somebody gonna start a “Getting high” thread. Cause I am high as hell right now while im typing this.

With all this talk of “What songs get you the most pumped up to lift,” I’m starting my own, of “Bands you hope get herpes and can’t perform ever again.” Top 5 for me:

  1. Dave Matthews Band and Coldplay (tie): You fuckers started this whole “emo” craze (The Fray, James Blunt, Modest Mouse, etc) of pussy guys whining to pussy music and wearing pussy clothes.

  2. Staind: Whiny little bitches. So I know you hated your parents. Stop whining about it. Or at least deal with it like Jonathan Davis from Korn does; scream and cuss into the microphone.

  3. Lil Jon and the Yin Yang twins: Whaaaa? Yeeeeea. You have no talent. You can’t even speak correctly. No one likes you.

  4. Creed: If you even need an explaination to why they suck then you suck too.

And my most hated band:

  1. System of a Down: If you were to put a pig and Peewee Herman in a blender and then play a guitar while blending them, it would sound like a System song. [/quote]

Whoa whoa whoa, hold up a sec! DMB is a GREAT band (not for working out) and really mellows me out when I need it. SOAD is the shit. I saw em live and I’ll tell you what, that was one hell of a mosh pit. I don’t agree with their politics, but damn can those guys pump me up.

DD

PS: SKYNYRD!!! Man, you all don’t know good music when you hear it do you?

Agree with 50 cent dlw and abba, but hey get the beegees of that list, and coldplay, i don’t like either of them but they have some classics!

As for me I think all that american rap shit that keeps hogging the radio one airwaves over here.
IE 50 cent, kanye west, snoop dog, dr dre e.t.c. It’s not music its fucking wank. I also can’t stand half of this dance shite that comes out, can’t believe people actually buy it, it’s like having piss in your ear.

:wink:

definately black eyed pees, fallout boy, hawthorne heights, and any of that other emo shit[/quote]

I so hate the black eyed peas, and fallout boy. But Hawthorne Heights? I beg you to reconsider. They really aren’t that bad.

I used to like system, until they came out with the boom song. “Every time you drop a bomb, you kill a brother, sister or mom” The song was against the war in Iraq and was criticizing the president and the military. That made me hate system, from now until the end of time…

You can have your opinions, and scream them. But don’t do it when thousands of brainless teens are listening. They will accept systems opinion, instead of thinking on their own.

Oh my god. I read this and I learned that emo came from my hometown. Now I’m very disappointed. They also listed Something Corporate as emo. They do suck, but they have one very good song. I woke up in a car. Anyone who likes roadtrips would have to like this song.

  1. Van Halen - I hate everything they play. I’m pretty sure the soundtrack to hell is “Panama”.

Whoa, whoa, hey whoa!! Leave Eddie and the boys out of this. My guess is that you are too young to really know Van Halen.[/quote]

Yeah, Donut62, you’re asking for some serious fucking trouble there!

Steely Dan.

Could you please enlighten me as to how In Flames and Arch Enemy are sellouts?

What? Care to explain? I understand not liking a band because of different musical tastes, but respect is respect. Steely Dan were innovators, their music was absolutely genius in melody and harmony.

And Jesse Cohen, please understand your statements about emo are really, really wrong. Enlighten yourself at allmusic.com, search for Dave Matthews Band, for Coldplay, for Rites of Spring, for MacKaye and Minor Threat and his later bands, and look up “emo” as a style.

Can’t believe nobody mentioned Michael Jackson. Everybody’s favorite “little boy” lovin sellout!
