sfuentes Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 QUOTE An impressive list...You're wise beyond your years Sterling yes.gif Well thank you! QUOTE I dunno about that Mars Volta one... I'm sorry, but I've put some serious effort in trying to get into The Mars Volta, but I just cannot. I've given the entire album three full listens and I just can't get into them, they're just not my cup of tea. I heard of and was referred by, let's say, a higher source (Neil Peart's website) on the review of the album. I must say that the music style is unique and they may be viewed as talented to some, but not to me. To me, it sounds like their musical goal is to mash together a plethora of annoying noise in hopes to make it sound like a song. But that's just to me. I can appreciate what effort they've put into their work and their fanbase, but they're just not for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleAgent420 Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 A lot of Radiohead stuff. Creed, and any band/song that sounds anything like them. Some song I think it's called "Just One Thing" SUPER annoying. A stand tune for my high skool band.... I HATE "THE HORSE"!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyBlaze Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 That 'Survivor' song (not the band, the song itself). And a song from the mid/late 90's, something 'Choo Choo train'. It goes, "...come on ride the train. And ride it. Come on ride the train. Its a Choo Choo. CHOO CHOO!" Every time I hear those songs I feel like gutting myself with a samurai sword.

When I was younger and in summer camp, there was this group of girls that had a cd player and would play music every day, all day. That was fine by me, except they did not want to play any other song except Ace of Base's "The Sign" over and over again. Day in day out, for 2 1/2 months, I had to endure this song at least 2 dozen times a day if not more. There was never a single day this song wasnt played, and when they played it, it went on repeat for hours. I cannot listen to this song now without getting the same way you were talking about.

I must say that the music style is unique and they may be viewed as talented to some, but not to me. It's fine if you don't like TMV. It's very strange stuff. But claiming that they aren't talented is in my view just plain ignorance. Cedric Bixler Zavala has a three octave range without using falsetto (which no doubt spans another). Omar A. Rodriguez-Lopez is one of the most incredible guitarists I have personally ever heard. Please take a second listen and hear the quality of the musicianship.

anagramking Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 I have to concur with those who chose U2's Vertigo. It is a wholesale theft of the Supremes' Keep Me Hanging On. Motown should file a suit, the sooner the better. (Another U2 theft was Bullet the Blue Sky vs. Ted Nugent's Stranglehold. Not as blatant as Vertigo, but I noticed a lot of similarities.) Otherwise, I hated the grunge music of the 90's. They dared to make musicianship irrelevant, and they succeeded. Kurt Cobain killed the guitar, though I suppose one could blame the hair bands for allowing grunge to happen, because the hair bands were terrible and allowed grunge to fill a vacuum of sorts. Grunge lacked legitimacy, and it was among the most self indulgent crap ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took me a long time to get into them (in fact, two years to really appreciate Comatorium, and I listen to it so much I rarely have time to spin Frances the Mute). This may not apply to the current thread, but I think a lot of Rush fans have been Rush fans for so long that Prog = Rush and Prog != Anything Else. Remember Rush is Rush because what they did was groundbreaking, and this latest crop of prog - Mars Volta, Trail of Dead, Coheed & Cambria, they're doing some different, interesting stuff and you don't have to like it but damn, some of these guys are incredibly talented.

MarkScudder Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 And I gotta say, the things that annoy me most of all these days are songs, albums, artists that are overtly political. A bunch of spoiled rich highschool dropouts with fake accents and daily t-shirt sales figures at more money than I've ever seen telling me not to vote for a particular guy because all he cares about is money and telling people what to do ... well, that was funny for a little while, but now it's just annoying. When I want to hear about politics, I'll turn on Air America or Limbaugh/Hannity or whatever. Hey, news flash: WHEN I WANT TO LISTEN TO MUSIC, I'LL LISTEN TO MUSIC!
