Fun Stuff > BAND
why won't chester bennington just die already?
El Opium:
linkin park are just a commercial black hole to suck in the cash of the angstful and unadventurous. I'll leave em too it, they'll not bother me so long as I never turn on my radio. If anyone plays em in my vicinity they'll get a harsh noise record to the eardrum.

--- Quote from: KharBevNor ---You must listen to some damn boring music then. I mean for fucks sake! I could see 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' being ok at 3 minutes long, but how long is it? 6 minutes or something? 6 bloody minutes of 'bluh bluh bluh bluh bluhbluhtain blus"
'Nevermind' is so boring I still have yet to sit through it, and yes, I am aware it is not their best record.

a lot of people like Nirvana because they pretty much singlehandedly knocked crap like Europe, Bon Jovi and Poison off the radio at one point, and paved the way for more decent bands to come to the fore. compared to the pop stuff (and i stress the "pop stuff" there) that was around at the time, Nirvana was gold.
are they earth-shattering now? not so much. were they interesting back then? comparatively speaking, surely.
KharBevNor:
But Europe and Poison totally SMOKE Nirvana! Bon Jovi I'm more indifferent to, but I'd kill (or at least injure) to have stuff like 'The Final Countdown' on the radio rather than the alt-rock and faux-indie garbage I hear today.
TheCourtJester:
Maybe I just like playing Devil's Advocate...but are there any real REASONS everyone is jumping on the "fuck linkin park" bandwagon? Pretty much EVERY band has angst of some sort..or angst's older (only slightly less annoying when over-used) cousin, emotion. What makes 'em so much worse than anyone else?
Next up... Nirvana VS. Ace of Base, who does everyone hate more?

*Looks at CD collection....looks at a Linkin Park CD.....looks at CD collection, looks at Linkin Park*
Yes, beacause angst is why a Prog and Tech music fan things "fuck Linkin Park" rather than them being a musical waste.
As for the Nirvana side thread that poped up, Khar's said it all really.
