Having a bandmate who hates about half the music you listen to

<< < (4/6) > >>

Hat:
All you have to do is get him addicted to heroin so that he's way too scatterbrained to have any real musical influence in anything you ever do.

Darkbluerabbit:
I'd say you could work well together, if he could develop a little more tact that to just say "this song sucks."  If a song really bothers him, he could say "would you mind if I skipped this?" and in return you can agree not to get too PUNK RAWK on him during jams.

What I'm saying is give it a chance.

That is an amazing point.

Or it would be for anyone who has the same opinion.

Oh and FWIW, I've heard that it wasn't just the volta guys wanting to sound like Piper - the other half of the band wanted to sound like WEEZER. I love Weezer, but that's hilarious.

It didn't really matter.

I don't really like Archers of Loaf, either

maybe we jam sometime?

Spinless:
You two done it now. I can't be associated with either of you. If you can show me an EP that's better than VS. then I'll make an effort to eat my hat, with photographic evidence.
