You understand but a tiny fraction of the wonder that is me.
I'm really not interested Dozer, I like what I like, I'm not in the mood to defend it or to argue about why I think some of what you like is shit, it's just not worth the breath.

That's it though.
Nobody has to defend what they like. But if there can be some reasoning outside of 'I just think it's shit' then it's all good.

For the record, I love Kyuss, Sunn O))), Pantera, Slayer and Nine Inch Nails. I also love underground house, breakbeat, Black Flag, NWA, Mos Def, Teenage Fanclub and drum n bass.

Big fucking deal.

OK, very breifly.
No idea where you got metaller from, maybe 10 years ago, but I have fairly diverse tastes now. For taste I like the sound of guitars generally, I also like a tune and some lyrics. I suppose beyond that which is mere aesthetic preference (although I think it's hard to convey meaning or emotion with out words), I go with Bill Hicks "Play with your heart", I like a bit of passion.

The stuff you linked (I think, may have been someone else but I think it was you) had none of these things, so I didn't like it. It also sounded very samey and repetitive to me. I'm sure there are things to be said for it, but I do not think it will ever be for me.

I think all genres
(music, film, books, etc.) sound samey when you don't know them well. It's like when you know a group of people, it takes a while for the nuances of their personalities to become apparent

Maybe in your autistic little world, but I could tell you from Rorry in a heart beat.
I know what you mena TBH, but even if I could tell Drum'n'Bass from Hard House (and for all I know one is a form of the other) I think I stand more chance of liking Opera than either.
( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Wed 31 Aug 2011, 22:57, Reply)

Opera is awesome
I'll have nothing said against it
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Wed 31 Aug 2011, 22:58, Reply)

Hard House and DnB are as distinct from each other as Country is from Nu Skool Breaks.
What the Comrade seems to think is a passionate love of REAL music is in fact ignorance.

I hate opera, just for the record, I find it puerile in the extreme. Also, operagoers lap up stuff in the plot, music and lyrics they would sneer at in any other genre. I saw Aida the other week and found it reet funny. I'm sure comedy is the last thing it is meant to be.

hey I genuinely like opera, and I'm not some snobbish cunt!

You don't find it faintly hilarious?
I AM DYING OF A TERRIBLE WOUND, THIS TERRIBLE WOUND THAT MY SECRET LOVER HAS INFLICTED ON ME! THE SECRET LOVER WHO SANG A VERY LOUD SONG ABOUT OUR SECRET LOVE IN FRONT OF THE OTHER PRINCIPLE PLAYERS!

MY LUNG IS COLLAPSING YET I SING, I SING BECAUSE I AM DYING!

I can't take it seriously, sorry. Also, I'm a very visual guy, and the only fit birds on stage are dancers and as such mere bit part players. If I was into BBW then maybe I'd appreciate it more.

so your story is someone once linked to some music that you didn't like?
And 'repetitive'? Just about every single song/ track whatever in just bout every single genre is repetitive. That's what a riff is. I was listening to some Pantera once and it was just the same sequence of chords a few times on the verse, then a different sequence twice on the chorus, then back to the first one again. I was so bored I went and listened to Smells Like Teen Spirit. Same thing on that.

So I took a different tack. I put on a Public Enemy CD and skipped straight to a 'song' called She Watch Channel Zero?! (nice interrobang, I thought to myself). The thieving black bastards had only gone and STOLEN a Slayer riff! Then they 'looped' it! REPEATING A REPETITIVE PHRASE!

So then I fucked it all off and sought refuge in some free jazz. Absolutely no repetition at all, but sadly no fucking tune either.

"Nobody has to defend what they like. But if there can be some reasoning outside of 'I just think it's shit' then it's all good."
Fuck off Dozer, I said I had no interest in this shit, and your pointing out that, in your mind, things that you think I like have the flaws I attribute to things you like will not make me think your music taste is any less shit, it just makes me think it's shit and at least one of the people who likes it is a dick too.

So, congrats, you have made me like it infinitesimally less.

And now I'm doing what I should have done in the first place and leaving this idiotic conversation alone.

Sorry, I couldn't make head nor tail of your first paragraph there.
I'm going to go and cry myself to sleep to some Megadeth.

Oh for fucksake you tit.
I'm not a metaller and I don't have some retarded passion for "REAL" music, I just don't like drum'n'bass, OK? If you can let that lie we can get on with areguing about something that matters, but if you want to pick a fight, do please try to make it about something I actually believe, M'kay?

Here's a hint: Have a crack at Bicycles (specifically old and rusty ones), left-wing politics, atheism or breasts, and I might bight, but Muscal taste? It really is so subjective there's just no point.
( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Wed 31 Aug 2011, 23:12, Reply)

I have no interest in bikes.
I am very left wing in outlook (though more liberal than left these days, I still describe my outlook as essentially Socialist though, I suppose my admiration of John Berger's work feeds directly into that, but I digress), am atheist of course and I love breasts.

Aight?
