The nose bleed kid asked me this a few days a go. I answered The Arcade Fire. I've changed my mind- though there certainly deputies. Now I'm thinking Broken Social Scene- sheerly based on awesomeness. Seriously, imagine Kevin Drew and Feist in office. That would fucking rock!!!!!!!
So what do people think?
-
i think he is asking the question who is president of the universe but hasn't expressed this except to put it as the title to the thread
questions that are raised if this is the question include
arn't bands which consist of more than member illegitimate choices for such a singular position as president?
like pedro don't most of these bands lack political experience?
and
wasn't the universe a monarchy the last time i checked who lead the revolution?
-
Guys, remember when we used to be arseholes to people in the music forum? Remember how sometimes we didn't feel particularly good about it, but at least it wasn't filled with fucking shit?
Am I the only one feeling this? Am I.... passe?
-
I asked him if he could choose one band to be president of the universe which band it would be.
I have two choices, since this is pure rhetoric forgive me;
1. Rage against the machine - purely to see how long it'd be before they became massive hypocrites
2. Orange goblin - because they rule

You should get a job at a record store. They would love you.

As much as I love Broken Social Scene, have you seen them live?? Kevin Drew is cool, but he gets kinda bossy. And when I say bossy, I mean he was yelling at everyone else when they all came in at the wrong time (but all together...), and in front of the whole audience.
My vote would have to go to David Bazan.
-
Your live experience of Broken Social Scene was very different from my live experience of Broken Social Scene.
-
My experience of Broken Social Scene was basically a giant sonic orgasm. If he bossed anything around that evening it was only my ability to perceive and surrender completely to music.
(Tommy, I have actively implemented a "be a dick" policy, please try to keep up with current events)
-
I'm so upset. I had tickets to see BSS awhile back when Do Make Say Think was touring with them and I missed the show. I missed it! I've been kicking myself literally ever since that I didn't do more to get to that show.
-
I've seen 'em three times and of course they're great. They're one of my favorite bands. That's just one of my observations that I'm sharing.
-
I put my vote in for Russian Circles for their ability to blow me away.
-
why do threads here always turn into jack offs over terrible music?
Obviously I am the exception to the rule
-
Are you a troll, an asshole, or both?? I can't decide.

yeah I know it's a shame someone had to bring up RATM and spoil everyone's Broken Social Scene circlejerk

It's fairly clear that it's both. Nosebleed, how about instead of making bitchy little snide remarks about music you don't like, you actually write an intelligent, well argued post about it. Tell us what bands you like and why. Tell us why you don't think the bands you don't like aren't good. And don't say "because they suck" or "because they're shitty." When you post as you have been, it makes me and a lot of other people thing you're a total douche bag. Stop being a damn troll and actually argue your point. No one likes posts like the ones you've been making so grow the fuck up and actually post something worthwhile.
-
I nominate Tsuyama Atsushi from Acid Mothers Temple.
-
Sun Ra has to be a serious contender for President of the Universe (or at least some kind of evil Emperor) - he's already got the look goin' on:

how about no?
I don't except someone with such terrible musical judgement to understand real reasons for listening to decent music, thus it'd be a tremendous waste of my time to do anything but entertain myself by throwing out random pearls of wisdom!
-
Guys shut up this is like what watching Tommy be born must have looked like
All just howling and blood, and snide remarks
-
Knowing Nosebleed personally, I know that the greatest weapon against him is to ignore hime. His only object is to piss you off, so just stop showing him you give a shit about what he says. I promise you.

Alex their pathetic indie egos can't handle the logic I'm throwing at the, they couldn't possibly IGNORE me!
That would mean I might have to start posting properly, why would I want to do that?
-
Good god you are tedious.
-
Guys, you know who would be an awesome president of the universe?
Galactus
-
Bob Dylan.
Just because he'd do nothing but sort of imply current politicians weren't worth his time, and have an attitude where after such a storied career he's now way too cool to do anything.

Only problem is you haven't used any logic.
We're a bit more open minded then you give us credit for, too.
If you actually had anything intelligent to say, we'd probably listen and have a nice intelligent discussion.

The President of the Universe should be Tim Delaughter if for no other reason than him having the largest army.

Please don't try and convince me you ahve an intelligence worth battling with, because you cannot compete. It's ok to admit this, no one will think less of you :mrgreen:.

I think Devin Townsend would be the best President Of The Universe ever.
Ever.

Why does every one of your posts make me want to ban you?
Check your PMs. I'm locking this thread.
