I'm sorry, but when you act concerned about mentioning Slipknot, then talk about Finger Eleven and Incubus, I think there's something wrong in your head.

Really, I'd have to ask you to explain why, because I don't quite understand...wait, I think I may get it, is this the "their mainstream too" arguement? If thats where this is going, then I will say that thats not why I say that. Most people think Slipknot's a bit generic, so I catch hell for it. Apprently, people don't put Finger Eleven and Incubus in the "been done before" category, so it's no problem. If thats not it, then I'm confused, articulate please. (trying to sound as least sarcastic as possible here)

Also, people don't like screaming in music, but honestly, as long as you can understand what he's saying, who cares? I guess some people do, but it never bothers me. Though honestly, why people get pissy about many things in music, besides maybe subject matter, is beyond me.

a pack of wolves:
After some investigation I have come to the conclusion that Finger Eleven sound like they were on the soundtrack to a very bad film from the late '90s/early '00s, something probably intended to appeal to the yoof. I'm actually quite surprised there are still bands like this around. Stone Sour and Incubus sound like that too actually, you can just imagine the credits coming up listing the name of someone who was in Dawson's Creek or Buffy The Vampire Slayer and thinking 'why the hell did I watch that all the way through?'. A kind of music which inevitably conjures up a feeling of irritated disappointment.

All this is proof of the wide range of tastes out there, cause I do not see it like that at all actually. I see them as music with energy too it, something I can latch on to why trying to get through the day, and make a nice balance to the softer rock/metal I have on my mp3 player. They also make for great background music, something that you don't exactly focus on but is still there, hell knows how many times I've sat through a whole gaming session listening to my music, just nodding my head to it while playing. Its not music that your supposed to sit there and "debate its finer points" but just sit the fuck back and listen to while your doing something. The point isn't to sit there and say "Now that guitar solo really sets off the change in emotion during the song when the singer gets to this part of the lyrics" its not there to be dissected and picked at, its there to be listened to and enjoyed, not picked apart and analyized.
