Music Guilty Pleasures

<< < (4/81) > >>

Storm Rider:
I love Boston, but they're very cheesy, and More than a Feeling, while great, is overplayed nearly as much as Stairway to Heaven.

E. Spaceman:
More than a Feeling is far better than Stairway to Heaven (could I be joking?), plus Boston invented grunge's best known riff, plus they are the only good band named after a place.

KharBevNor:
Not listening to the radio is such a great way to not ruin classic rock songs.

Guilty pleasures? Hmn, not too many. A few Godsmack songs (Voodoo, Vampires) older System of a Down now and again (Nostalgia thing, and some good tunes. I refuse to let retroactive snobbery paper over them). I like Cradle of Filth quite a bit past when it is musically defensible to do so. (To an extent, right up to Bitter Suites to Succubi. For an A) 'Born in a Burial Gown' is the anthem of me being 15, for a B) Sisters of Mercy cover! Most ridiculous song about suicide in a graveyard ever (and I've heard a few of those lemme tell you)). I still like a load of 90's Industro-rock from my early teen years that it is now dreadfully uncool to like as well: Chiefly Rammstein (which I do not consider a guilty pleasure, though the latest album was a tad pants) but also the odd bit of Zeromancer, Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson etcetera. Others would also probably consider Jack Off Jill and every Wednesday 13 project to be 'guilty' pleasures, but these people are fools. Fools!

Rubby:
Bush X  (or just Bush for you people from other countrys).
And I think the whole point of this is to say music that your perhaps not ashamed of so much as music that other people would cringe at the mention of.

Bastardous Bassist:

RICHARD CHEESE.

Think Lounge versions of popular rock songs.

Lounge Against the Machine is hot.  My friend went to a death metal concert, and between bands, they played the Richard Cheese version of "Rape Me."

As for me, pretty much all of the rock stuff I listen to is a guilty pleasure.  I'm a jazz musician, and when people ask me what I've been listening to, I never want to tell them that it's been, you know, Loudness, or techno.  I guess my main guilty pleasure would be that I sometimes listen to techno.  Not crazy, insano techno.  Just plain old techno.  Honestly, I can't figure out a single reason why I like it, but I do!
