CapNColostomy Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Originally posted by ET Warrior If I dont view myself as a man, does that make me a woman? Or just a man with delusions....... That's not true, lots of people see them as more poppy than rock False generalization, screaming does not make you a hard rock band another false generalization, plenty of "pop" bands play their own instruments. Your talking about Linking Park not being "soft-rock" is akin to those punk-wannabe kids who think that Sum41 and mxpx and Good Charrolette are hardcore punk bands OMFG! If I start a metal church, will you come preach at it ET? I fookin' love you now! Anyways, if you can't decide if your favorite group/singer/rapper/jackass qualifies as pop or not, ask yourself this simple question: Do I hear my favorite "artist" on the radio constantly? If you answered yes, your favorite flavor of the week is a poop...I mean POP sensation simply because the term pop is a derivitive of the word popular. And if it's on the radio alot, it's popular. So Linkin Park has tricked you into thinking they are metal, and nothing more, my gullible friend. Please excercise caution in dealing with this obviously crappy and deceitful band in the future. PS. Just because they have a rapper in the band, doesn't make them less pop, and more metal. In fact, since rap is the current POPULAR music, it makes them MORE pop. And more poop.

Mercenary Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 yeah I don't like those pop bands who think they're punk. They have no idea what it is to be punk. Making big corporations lots of money is definitely not it. I don't even listen to punk but I'm more punk than they'll ever be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrion Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Don't really care about genre's. Hell, my favorite bands are Nirvana, Linkin Park, Sting, and Final Fantasy VII(Alright, so it's not a band. Sue me, Nobuo Uematsu is a mastermind). (I didn't know Linkin Park was metal or pop, I thought all along it was Techno. ) In fact, since rap is the current POPULAR music, it makes them MORE pop. And more poop. The world's a strange place when success is equated to being poop. 'course, there's Britney Spears and N'sync...yeah, I'll eat my words and say the world's screwed up horribly.

PR-0927 Posted July 12, 2004 Author Share Posted July 12, 2004 *Sigh...* Linkin Park is officially rock. I never said hard/heavy rock, did I? If so, oops... They are hybrid/rock/techno, with a Japanese rapper (and a Chinese or Japanese disc-jockey/music video creator)!! BTW- Sabretooth!! I'm not a betrayer, I think...(the lyrics...I DIDN'T READ THEM!!).

txa1265 Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Originally posted by ckcsaber Your poll should be re-titled: What type of POP music is your favorite. That might be a bit narrow, but I think that the rock genre has been over sub-classed in this poll. I see: - Pop - Rock - R&B/Rap - Country - Jazz - Classical ... and probably others for electronica and non-western forms. As for Rock, it encompasses most stuff here. Age of people making music, or of the music itself doesn't impact content, so 'old' or 'modern' are nonsensical distinctions. Hard rock is rock. Punk, aka punk rock ... is rock. Metal is rock, making death metal ... rock. Alternative rock ... is rock. Pop is a broad-reaching category as well, and pretty tough to place boundaries on. For instance, I call the Police 'rock', and also the first of Sting's solo albums, but he is squarely 'pop' now. I put R&B and Rap (and hip-hop or whatever) together ... they could be separate. When I look on my iPod, I'm not surprised to see that the overwhelming majority of my stuff is Jazz. Then rock, classical, soundtracks, hip-hop, pop, and so on.

GonkH8er Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 I'm with txa. I look at my itunes list, and a good 1/3 of the 5000 songs there are jazz and funk. I have a pretty diverse taste in music. But I detest rap. I'll post up the more prominant artists who pepper my playlist. Apollo 440 The Avalanches *** Basement Jaxx Ben Folds Five The Butterfly Effect *** Daft Punk The Dandy Warhols The Doors Epicure *** Franz Ferdinand Grinspoon *** Groove Armada Jamiroquai Jeff Buckley John Butler Trio *** The Mars Volta Metallica Nine Inch Nails Placebo Portishead PowderFinger *** Scissor Sisters Smashing Pumpkins Something for Kate *** System of a Down Vast The Vines *** The White Stripes The Whitlams *** Wilco Zephyr Timbre *** The ones with stars next to them are australian bands. You should all check them out, if you havent heard them already I should probably post up a list of their better songs, so you dont download their average songs and go "errrrrrr..." I'm not trying to shove our music down your throat. I just listen to a lot of Australian music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah yes, I suffer from insomnia due to some colostomy(yes, I know what it is) freak's raving delusion that his opinion actually matters.

toms Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 powderfinger rule.... I'm not sure you can do this sort of thing with a poll. I'd probably have to pick "modern rock" if i voted... but that could range from dire rubbish like limp bizkit or linkin park all thr way through stuff like the darkness up to muse or whatever. I just like bands/singers that are GOOD, original, have a unique sound or something to say... whatever the genre. Just cos i like one "old rock" band doesn't mean i like others, just cos i like Snow Patrol doesn't mean i like Keane, just cos i hate most manufactured pop doesn't mean i can't appreciate the odd good bit that comes along. Current favourites include Muse, Led Zep, White Stripes, Snow Patrol, Joss Stone, Nelly Furtado, Audioslave, Foo fighters, Kylie, Love, Nirvana, old rhcp stuff, beastie boys, jamie cullum, faithless and others... Compartmentalising stuff into genres leads to all the copycat rubbish the music industry churns out that has lead a big decline in decent bands over the last few years.
