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.

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.

I'm going to go and cry myself to sleep to some Megadeth.

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.

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?

Oh, and Sci Fi. As long as you don't like Marmite I have no reason to stab you at the bash.
