Dude! In the Court of the Crimson King! Rock on! I just forgot them...and ELP!...but my list was long enough as it was...Sr.mal wrote:Sigh seems like I'm the only one who has heard of/likes King Crimson.
I also occassionally listen to King Crimson, but not much. I have their album The ConstruKction Of Light.Sr.mal wrote:Sigh seems like I'm the only one who has heard of/likes King Crimson.
Oh, my sister listens to them a LOT. I haven't heard anything personally though.Sr.mal wrote:Sigh seems like I'm the only one who has heard of/likes King Crimson.
humbug! as long as a band is successful with their own style, with the stuff they´ve been doing and wanting to they can sell as many records and get as filthy rich as they want to without being sellouts.Sr.mal wrote:Bands sell out when they sign their first record contract. In reality all bands have sold out.

I fucking hate metallica after that. Sure a band wants to sell records but you'll notice most REAL band have no problem with Peer-to-Peer networks. In fact the best band in the World, U2, actually release there albums on MP3 the week before they hit the shop.Lars the moron wrote: Don't download our songs or we'll cry then i'll have to sue you.
Don't feel so bad. From this I would appear to be the only person who likes/has heard of Lostprophets.Sr.mal wrote:Sigh seems like I'm the only one who has heard of/likes King Crimson.
Well you're a bit more diverse than me it seems. I've mostly played bass over the past 18 years, with occasional experiments in keyboards, guitar, and drums.Zaia wrote:*grin* Well, technically, I play them all! I have to, since I'm a music teacher. As for the ones I play professionally (I do gigs from time to time--now I'm performing with a local theater doing 'West Side Story'), I mostly play classical percussion & piano, although I have done a couple gigs on bari sax (jazz) and trombone. And I played oboe for about 8 years. And I sing too, and play the guitar but not very well.Captain Kruger wrote:Zaia, what instruments to you play? I always love touching base with fellow musicians.
I think that's about it...
I know. I'm not against it. I'm rather glad they sold out- just stating the obvious.Oh for the love of your prefered mythical deity.......why? Is it a crime to be successful and make some money......
This is why I quit listening to punk, I got tired of the poser attitudes of 'my band is more underground than your band' bullshit that permeates the entire punk scene. What are we now going to start this shit with rock and thrash bands ? I guess not everyone can be 'Fugazi' and martyr themselves for their musc......
Excellent taste my man....excellent taste....Hyperion wrote:Blind Guardian, Therion, Rhapsody, Nightwish, 7.1, Lightforce, Dido, Manowar, Apocalyptica, and assorted others.
Things which will NEVER be found in my playlists:
(c)rap (makes me want to kill things)
New country (This stuff's shit, if I want to hear someone complaining about their F.O.R.D. and their wife, I'll watch springer)
Opera (sounds like shit, can't understand it, hurts my ears)
Jazz/blues (drives me insane and makes me want to kill things)
Hip-hop/varients thereof (see (c)rap)
A good deal of rock and metal (if it sounds like shit, i.e. hendrix, nirvana, etc.)
Indie (drum circle with another name. 'nuff said)
Drum 'n bass (drum circle with (c)rap influence. 'nuff said)
Bad techno (American crap)
Classical (puts me to sleep and shuts off my brain)
And anything with less than 180bpm base-line when I'm in the car, and we wonder why I average 10-25 over limit... lol... "More power to the engines!"
Come and join me in a dark alley. I know of several small armies that insist upon your appearence.A good deal of rock and metal (if it sounds like shit, i.e. hendrix, nirvana, etc.)
Are you trying to tell me that the Black album is better than Master of Puppets? More popular and accessible, yes, but musically it doesn't hold a candle to Master of Puppets, Ride the Lightning, or ...And Justice for All.HemlockGrey wrote:I know. I'm not against it.

Afterall, Metallica IMPROVED after they sold out.
I did like the Black album a lot....but the early stuff was bloody excellent.....aerius wrote:Are you trying to tell me that the Black album is better than Master of Puppets?

Some of it. I also like the stuff on S&M, and Ride the Lightning was EXCELLANT.Are you trying to tell me that the Black album is better than Master of Puppets?

The S&M album was good....but they should have done more of thier older songs for it.....HemlockGrey wrote:Some of it.
