Glad you didn't say "Bruce Springsteen" 'cause then I'd have to send Clint Eastwood after you. :P

Death Metal/Black Metal....whatever you wanna call it....it's nothing more than pig squealing to me. Or maybe that's the whole point?:shock:.........:P

Lethargika

Do explain how any of these are "pig squealing"...

alright, I take it back, that sounds more like "Pig Grunting".......a little less harsh on the ears...:P

I see you like your analogies between DM and pigs. :P

Brokencyde. They got a huge fanbase how? Deathcore. Immortal. It just sounds okay and not much else. Nickelback. Among many others.

Immortal is all about Abbath being the most ridiculous person ever.

I thought it was all about Abbath being a man who took his wooden ship in a direction that no other sailor would take (even Columbus) and discovered the land of Blashyrkh where he found and claimed the kingdom Mighty Ravendark for all mighty Norway. /sarcasm.

Death Metal or any kind of music that has screaming in it. I honestly don't think anyone enjoys death metal, they just think it makes them look badass and hardcore. That's just my opinion of course.

Vampire Weekend, Coldplay, the Strokes, Tune-Yards and Fever Ray. Not bad artists, but I really don't see how they distinguish themselves from any other band in their genre. Especially Coldplay. They're like... homeopathic Radiohead.

I get the appeal of BrokeNCYDE, I just don't get the people who find them appealing.

If there are any? I mean, there must be some.

I don't get the appeal. Please explain. As for people who like them, I have one thing to say:

Yeah, and I love Björk too. I am disappoint, Sammy :(

Is there something about them that you find off-putting, or is it simply that you haven't found anything to like or dislike about them?

The first one sounds like hes burping all the lyrics, i listen to a lot of metal and can't understand a word. I always refer to these guys when topics like you can't understand what they are saying pop up, Black Dahlia Murder. They growl both high and low but i can understand 100% of the words to their songs. To answer the thread however, I'd have to say reggae, funk and especially dubstep. I have artists from alot of the other genres out there in my itunes so i can't really say much about a lot of bands. CBR600-RR

I can understand Amon Amarth quite well, must be your hearing.

The first one isn't Amon Amarth.. So i'm not sure what you are talking about.

Insane Clown Posse - I mean, seriously...they're talentless hacks, and their fans seem to lap it up for that very reason. It's illogical. Hanson - The fact that their music was better when they were kiddies also seems to defy any logic. They've done like two halfway decent songs since they hit the indie scene. Kottonmouth Kings - Oh, aren't they clever; they can write a whole bunch of weed-smoking songs. (Lack of understanding only applies when sober.)
