Fun Stuff > BAND
So....Music
JimmyJazz:
Can you possibly get any more bland than Chickenfoot and Velvet Revolver?
Critiscisms aside Joker, I don't really think that you can say "pop music disgusts me" when all the bands you mentioned you liked ARE pop music. Pop music is just short for "popular music." It's not really a genre that has a certain sound; ahything that is generally well liked by the popualce can be called pop music. Now, I know that what you probably meant by pop music was something like Britney Spears, but that's not really what the term defines.
Also, do you like punk at all? Even if you don't, the whole basis for the punk movement was to "play straight rock and roll" as you said, albeit faster and louder at a time when progressive rock and bands with emphasis on technical virtuosity and solos were popular and permeating the airwaves.
The Joker:
You are correct in assuming what I meant by pop music. Stuff like Taylor Swift and the Jonas Brothers (who, in response to your criticism, are more bland than Chickenfoot and Velvet Revolver - bands who I don't consider to be bland at all).
I don't particularly like punk - The Clash is good, and some Celtic punk is all right, but other than that it doesn't seem to me like there's not much variety.
Also, I really like technical virtuosity and solos, so that's one reason why I don't go for punk much.
Be My Head:
Thank you! I can hear a definite Zeppelin influence there, although it's obviously heavier.
Be My Head:
"technical virtuosity"
Then what are you doing listening to The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, and Guns N' Roses?

Do you know how badly I wanna see these guys preform? DO YOU KNOW?
Yeah to be honest you probably do.

I didn't mean to imply that those were the only bands I listen to, that's just the majority of it.
Some examples in music that I listen to: Pink Floyd, Joe Satriani, Derek Trucks, etc.
