Bands you don't get the appeal of?

Anything I don't listen to I don't find the appeal of.

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?

Nothing about them that I find off-putting. They just don't do anything for me.

[QUOTE="sammyjenkis898"]The Smiths is another one. Maybe one day they'll click with me, but I just don't understand the appeal of them.LJS9502_basic

Really? For some reason, I thought you were a fan of them.

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

tattered banners and bloody flags is their best song, imo

It's a great one, but imo Thousand Years of Oppression, Avenger, Twilight of the Thunder God, Amon Amarth, and Live for the Kill are all better. Just my opinion though. :P

My favorites are Live for the Kill, Under the Northern Star, Prediction of Warfare, Tattered Banners, Pursuit of Vikings, Cry of the Black Birds. :D

Complaining about repetitiveness and yet you like The Cure? :?

chessmaster1989

Yes... they are repetitive... which is fine, there are good bands that are repetitive... but they are still repetitive...

LJ, why do you never admit you're wrong? Your favorite band in the whole wide world is a ton more repetitive than Amon Amarth. The song I posted is in fact repetitive, but the majority of their songs aren't.

[QUOTE="chessmaster1989"]

[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"] Which are not repetitive....that guitar just hit the same chord over and over and over....ad nauseum.

BrokeNCYDE and Insane Clown Posse.

Even with bands I really don't like, I can usually understand why other people would like them. I've always been incredibly bored by Radiohead and Tool, but I can definitely see the things in those songs that people could find beautiful. I've always thought Fall Out Boy and Panic (!) at the Disco were incredibly annoying, but I can see how somebody could listen to that and think it's fun. I've always thought Nu-metal had the most annoying vocals ever, but hey, some people like it and I can't necessarily see why, but I can understand that they do.

But BrokeNCYDE and Insane Clown Posse, I just don't see how you could listen to that and enjoy it. There's just nothing about it that sounds in any way appealing to me, or that I could think of as being appealing to somebody else.

Deathcore bands, seriously.cyberdarkkid

[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"]So I say the song is repetitive...you agree it's repetitive but say I'm wrong. :?LJS9502_basic

/facepalm. he was saying that the cure is repetitive.. and you are saying they aren't.. which in fact, they are

Well the song I posted doesn't really repeat the same chord over and over at all. Also, diggin' the ellipsis there man.

Agree with Paramore... also any metal band. I dont get the grunting and growling whatsoever...I also dont understand how people pass off their lyrics as poetic and deep when its clearly just nonsense...

sboyer2

-_- dont put all metal in one big genre

[QUOTE="JonnyEagle"][QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"]I've never heard any Cure song repeat the same chord over and over. He would be wrong on that....LJS9502_basic

There is nothing at all wrong with the vocals you're just not open to new styIes of music. Johan is one of the best vocalists out there I think. I like how you can understand every word he says which isn't something normal out there in death metal.

Metal heads unite against LJ!

The Cure. I like their music, but I don't really get the whole look of the band.JC346

[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"]

[QUOTE="JonnyEagle"] That Amon Amarth doesn't repeat one chord continuously, yes it has a chord progression that it sticks to through most of the song, but you can find that in a Cure song as well.....JonnyEagle

Paramore, Metallica, Simple Plan, Green Day. Four bands that have not impressed me in the least.

Dem's fighting words! :x

[QUOTE="JonnyEagle"][QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"]The beginning was the same chord...it was a repetitive song and the vocals killed it.

LJS9502_basic

He's wrong about the chord being static throughout the intro since I can hear the chord changes under the chugging.......JonnyEagle

paramore, green day, all the emo bands and all the indie bands especially tokyo hotel...crip its like a new one pops up every month

[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"][QUOTE="JonnyEagle"] Actually, you're wrong there, the same chord isn't repeated..... JonnyEagle

[QUOTE="JonnyEagle"]He's wrong about the chord being static throughout the intro since I can hear the chord changes under the chugging.......LJS9502_basic

Much to the probable disdain of OT, the Metal genre as a whole. It is loud sloppy music with screaming in it. That's it. I don't know how you could listen to it in any other setting than a fight or something of the like, and even then I can think of loads of stuff I'd rather listen to. I cannot fathom the idea of having it on in a party atmosphere, just on while you are performing a simple task like cleaning the house/apartment, or even driving in your car. Ugh. Hate it. To each their own.
