80's thrash metal >>> Queen, Zepellin, and Pink Floyd

Grunge and Nu metal >>>> 80's hair metal

My musical taste is better than yours.

Aside from that, The Velvet Underground > The Beatles in terms of the 60s.

Metalheads are annoying creatures, and mind me, I used to be one.

The Dark Side of the Moon is among the worst Pink Floyd albums. I find it terribly uninteresting.

Madvillain (and thus their album Madvillainy) is overrated because I find it uninteresting and full of useless moments.

Thrash metal is garbage. 99% of power metal is garbage. In fact, the only metal I find enjoyable is black metal, death metal, doom metal, and post-metal (plus all variants of each). But then again, I also find most of each genre garbage too. As it is with any genre, the lot istrash with only a select few being standout gems. Deathspell Omega and Neurosis are perhaps the greatest metal bands of this generation and a fine example.

death metal isnt complex as a genre or a general trend. it's an illusion from speed.

cynic's albums arent getting worse. they are just one of the few bands that isnt trying to make a career off releasing the same album a dozen times.

I didn't know that was unpopular. I know a large number that embrace Traced in Air. Of course, their remix EP was poor, but their recent EP (Carbon something) was pretty nice.

1. Lyrics have nothing to do with music.

2. The electric guitar is the single worst-sounding instrument in the world.

3. Most movie/game soundtracks consists of boring unlistenable garbage. Lame.

Lyrics can add to the emotional factor...if the band did have a strong emotional factor in the first place.

*Edit*

Sorry if I was a bit snobby in the last post I wasnt trying to imply that you dont like Death metal

It's that kind of snobbish attitude towards the topic that makes my indifference to the Beatles stronger.

I swear that people only like the Beatles because it establishes some imaginary superiority to others.

You're the same person that said not too long ago that someone who doesn't like the Beatles is in need of musical education.

Please, get out of here with that bullshxt.

Probably that I like Insane clown posse you couldn't live on giantbomb for awhile if you liked em, but that was more the staff's fault then anything in the fact they are dumb and couldn't understand what was trying to be said.
Now that they are owned by CBS I dont visit there as much.

[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"][QUOTE="001011000101101"] Lyrics is words written on a paper. Music is sound. So how the hell is lyrics music? They're not. If lyrics is the only redeeming factor in a certain track, that track is **** Simple as that.

001011000101101

Sounds to me that you just don't listen to music that sends messages primarily through lyrics.

This song was recorded in 1964. Roll that date around your brain for a second. 1964. They managed to record this in 1964, using nothing but tape recorders.

exactly, if you can't at least appreciate what the beatles did for music then the problem is with YOU AND YOU ONLY.

[QUOTE="001011000101101"][QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"] Vocals are an instrument of music.....:|LJS9502_basic

Like, The Beatles. I couldn't care less about their lyrics. They've made some damn good melodies, and they were damn talented in that area. I listen to the music, not the words.

[QUOTE="MadVybz"]

[QUOTE="001011000101101"] No, because music like that is uninteresting. Music is emotions through sound. Not through poetry. 001011000101101

Then all I can say is that you're missing out.

[QUOTE="001011000101101"] Lyrics = the words. Vocals = the sound. I like the sound of the human voice. Couldn't care less about the words that's being sung.001011000101101

Led Zeppelin are very overrated

Emo is an excellent genre (as long as you stay away from the mainstream groups)

Kurt Cobain couldn't sing and his guitar playing was nothing notable

All AC/DC songs sound the same

Jimi Hendrix is the most overrated musician in history, and his singing was poor.

I cannot stand Tom Wait's voice one bit. At least he can write a song

Nine Inch Nails are a poor example of an industrial group. If you want industrial, listen to Skinny Puppy (I really like NIN with that said)

Cliff Burton was nothing special. His bass playing was decent

Reign in Blood is hella overrated. Hell Awaits is the best Slayer album.

trent reznor is far beyond industrial, it's disrespectful to try and even pigeonhole him like that. jimi hendrix created an entire sound, clean vocals are overrated.
