Queen&Matty wrote: wot u thinkI really shouldn't have even replied at all, because this is the most gramatically horrible sentence I've read in months. I count five errors, and it's only three words (four if it was written even somewhat properly). I can't make a bottom five bands. Music for me isn't a popularity contest. It's about who appeals to who, as likes and dislikes in any art form are relative to one's tastes. But I still have a few things to say here: Bands like Default, Nickelback, and Theory Of A Deadman are destroying a once proud genre of music in the mainstream called rock. They are turning commercial rock music into simplistic, predictable, musically untechnical, four-chord pop. In today's popular music in general, rarely do I hear even intermediate theoretical elements of music. When's the last time you heard a diminished-minor chord change in a new rock song? You often hear the minor-augmented-major-m7b5 progression in pop song bridges, but only because it's simply a descending chromatic bass line over the same two notes - not because the songwriter actually thought of it in those terms. Am I making sense? :P Btw, I'm surprised to see Dave Matthews, Asia, and Toto in this topic. All are great in my eyes, and all have fantastic musicians. |

I cannot stand Coldplay or U2. Attention seekers wind me up so much. Bono and his "help the world, cause I'm not going to so you have to. Im rich but you spend your money on saving other countries" and all his other wanky, cringe-making speeched, and then theres Chris Martin with his message on his hands, boring tosser. Britains best loved rock band? Do me a lemon, when did droning with a bit of piano and some lazers constitute rock? What I reallt hate are all these new bands like The Futureheads, and the Kaiser Chiefs, and Franz Ferdinand, and Snow Patrol, and the Killers, and Razorlight, and Embrace, and and and and... what happened to ORIGINALITY and doing things YOUR WAY? When did tit beomce cool to be the same as all the others? Its a joke nowadays, and crap magazines like NME support all this shit. I like Kerrang coz it's one of the few completely rock (and most decent music) orientated mediums nowadays, but even they have started to suck up to all these new bands... Bullet For My Valentine, Trivium blah blah bla etc etc etc. Same old. Why does everyone have to be the "new Metallica" or the "new AC/Dc"? Why can't they be the "first" of something? ORIGINALITY. Look it up. Give me the Foo's or Muse any day of the week over this crap. |

| GreatKingSam 29.09.2005 07:35 |
They all get SO much coverage, but why? The Killers are just the same old vocals sounds and synthesizers, mixed with the same repetitive drum pattern, and then theres the Futureheads (I think) with I Predict A Riot, which may as well be a chorus taken from every Clash or Jam song. Embrace are all but Coldplay repeated, and Coldplay are all but U2, just dummed down. Franz Ferdinand are uninventive. Snow Patrol and Keane? A guitar and a decent colour of hair are pretty much the difference. Lol, it REALLY rattles me about things like this. Oasis are another band who, despite The Masterplan being a fucking AMAZING album (albeit a collection of b-sides and non-album tracks) and their latest single being really good, they're another band who I am bored of too. I just wish bands were original again. I'm so grateful for The White Stripes - love em. Good ol fashioned rock and rock. Let's have more of it. God help us and get Queen to release something new, show em how its done... |
| Mr.Jingles 29.09.2005 09:28 |
I think The White Stripes are extremely overated. I listened to 'Elephant' (which seemed according to music critics the best thing since 'Dark Side Of The Moon') and although 'Seven Nation Army' and 'The Hardest Button To Button' are superb songs, the rest of the album was absolutely boring to even bother listening. ...they even make Coldplay sound good. |

I am a White Stripes fan - I wont lie, and and am someone who very much has no time for Coldplay whatsoever. However... at the end of the day, don't believe critics, and make your own opinion. Critics PANNED In Utero (the final Nirvana album). In my opinion, it is their best work. If you believe everything critics say, you will have false impressions. Comparing something to Dark Side Of The Moon (although I'm not a Pink Floyyd fan at all, I can appreciate it is a good album in perspective), will give you a higher opinion of the album before you've even listened to it. The White Stripes have the ability to change. Each album is different, and progress from the former. Whereas Coldplay? Do I even need to comment? Anyway, Ball & Biscuit is an amazing song, as is The Air Near My Fingers, You've Got Her In Your Pocket... Elephant is a very good album. |

Of course bands are only original if their influences are Led Zep, Beatles, Pink Floyd etc etc. Yawn. |

| GreatKingSam 30.09.2005 09:00 |
Embrace, I do believe, are a "Chris Martin" band and one he discovered only recently (as in the last two years)? They had the song where the girl in the video got up and walked down the street but no-one could see her, and then she ends up going to the garage and seeing the band play? Perhaps your thinking of a different band? Or perhaps I have got their name wrong. NB: This Embrace are also PRODUCED by Chris Martin, and sound almost identical to Coldplay, which is completely talentless if you ask me. I think ORIGINALITY will be my new keyword. EDIT: Looking As You Are was the song I was on about - but I think I just read it wrong. After a little research, it seems Embrace have been around since at least 1997. I do know however that this WAS produced by Chris Martin though - and just was a complete dissapointment from the view that it sounded, vocally and musically, like a cheap Coldplay rip-off (given Coldplay are pretty droney anyway). |
| Gunpowder Gelatine 01.10.2005 01:30 |
Good Charlotte and Simple Plan come to mind...I actually liked Coldplay for awhile but after buying X&Y everything's started to sound the same...And sure, some experiments aren't successful, but it's better than putting the same album out every couple of years. |

Embrace are a Chris Martin band? Please understand what you are talking about before you continue to post such shite. All you good good people came out in 1997, a few years before anyone had heard of a Mr Martin. For the record, Chris Martin gave Gravity to Mr Mcnamara and co because he (correctly) thought it sounded more like an Embrace song than a Coldplay one. Now please go back to listening to your 'proper' bands and shut up. |

However, I do very much recall, when watching the video for looking as you are when it came out, on MTV (or one of the other channels), it stated that it was produced by Chris Martin, and in my opinion, I thought it just sounded completely like a Coldplay track, albeit a "slightly up-tempo" one. If I'm wrong, and perhaps misheard slightly what it said regarding Chris Martin and this particular song, I apologise once more, however you don't have to be a prick about it do you? I wasn't rude to anyone else was I - so why do you feel the need to be? So rather than be rude, why not read my post and see that I had ADMITTED I was wrong, before you "post such shite". |

Oh geez... all those emo (that's what I call it) bands where they talk about being depressed and killing themselves, etc. Although I do like Green Day because, well, they're not emo. For some reason I can't stand really really hard rock. Makes me go insane. And any singer/band of rap. URGH! 50 (to pronounce it from the ghetto it'd be "Fity") cent is the worst. |
| GreatKingSam 01.10.2005 12:09 |
I know it's only a discussion and I'm sure you don't mean it, but when some of you talk about your hate of rap/hip hop etc alot of your comments come across as very racially stereotipical, which for me, is a form of a racism. Racism is something that offends not only me, but I'm sure many others too. And killer_queen00 - when you've been shot through the face and have had part of your jaw reconstructed, perhaps you will have problems speaking, too. |

Honestly, I don't get why The White Stripes made the cover of Mojo, NME. Rolling Stone. I actually like Jack White as a producer and singer and think he did WONDERS for Loretta Lynn's Van Laer Rose album... ..but I listened to the entire new album, and good God...that recordought to be used by the CIA to torture Al Quida! The one song Meg sings, I have heard animals in pain, screaming, that sounded better. What is all the Freaking deal? I know music is subjective, but.....you REALLY want CRAP......... and a critical darling that makes The White Stripes sound like the Beatles and also is making the cover of every fucking music mag,... ...have any of you heard this electronica/''new age'' band from Iceland,.... ....Sigur Ros. OMG!!!! Sounds like I can't explain it. The worst damn band I ever heard in my LIFE and every British and US music mag raves about them. It isn'e even music. It's all computer generated crap and ''new fucking age'' at that! Like Yanni meets 9 Inch nails! |

He was very late for one of his gigs cos he handcuffed himself to a random pipe on the street!! what an idiot!! And Kate Moss ain't any better!!Pete Doherty is a fucking turd. The only reason anyone pays any attention to him at all, is because of his antics, and for shacking up with Kate Moss. He even screwed Elton John over at Live 8 when Elton John insisted to Bob Geldof that Doherty's dumb ass druggy days were over and that Elton wanted Doherty to duet with him. Then Doherty showed up stones and embarrased Elton. Last few eeks the British press has had a field day with Pete attacking Razorlight's Jonny Borrell at the Carling Leads/Reading Festival and headbutting Borrell. But I heard Borrell laid Pete's fat ass on the floor. HA! |

I remember once my girlfriend made me listen to a band called Oingo Boingo, and let me tell you this was one of the worst bands I've ever listened to. They were one of many synth oriented new wave pop band from the 80s. Their music (if you can call it that) is absolutely painful to listen to, and this comes from someone who actually loves 80s new wave pop. After listening to their records you'd think those guys have no fuckin' talent whatsoever. Turns out to be the that main songwriter of Oingo Boingo ended up becoming one of the greatest musical geniuses of the past 20 years. After Oingo Boingo disbanned, the lead singer went to write musical scores and themes for very different TV series as well as major Hollywood films. ...and what was his name? Someone named Danny Elfman. |
