I use the term guilty pleasure for lack of a better phrase. If you feel guilty for liking any music than you're an idiot. That being said, one time I was hanging out after band practice and plugged my mp3 player in our PA system. Among the standard things we all listen to like Kalmah Porcupine tree etc... all of a sudden Ashley Simpon's Boyfriend came on naturally I got the compulsory "you're a fag" and "12 year old girl" insults but that was that. After the song was over, because god hates me the next song that popped up was a Justin Timberlake song. Anyway, what is some music that just doesn't belong in your usual repertoire. Do you listen to indie but put on some Kanye when nobody is listening? Do you like Punk but every so often you get your Lady GaGa on? Come on fess up!

I have some papa roach on my Ipod. Shame on me.
-
I can't stand them normally, but when I'm trying to meet a project deadline I listen to Breaking Benjamen, don't even like them, but they help me focus I guess?
also: Eminem - Marshall Mathers
it's so absurdly violent I find it a fun listen every once in a while :P
oh well
-
"I'll Be" by Edwin McCain.
:oops:
-
I have some older Sevendust, and also pretty much all the pre-nimrod Green Day. And Collective Soul's first three albums. Also some older 311 and Alanis Morisette.
I have many guilty pleasures :-D

whoa oh oh
whoa oh oh oh oh
-
"Dancing On The Ceiling" - Lionel Richie
-
I Adore anime music and J-Pop. Also Kabalevsky.
-
I don't even classify Justin Timberlake as a guilty pleasure really.
Linkin Park i do though :-D
-
Los Campesinos! Spacehog! INXS! Michael Crawford! Feist! Beastie Boys! Massive Attack! Mew! TMBG! Maná! PNAU! Scissor Sisters! Starsailor! Supergrass!
There's nothing wrong with liking massive attack, the rest though...
-
Whoever thinks Beastie Boys are a guilty pleasure should be taken out back and shot.
-
Yeah, I should have put The Beatles on the list, too.
that I must say, is a first, never met anyone ashamed of the Beatles
to each his own
-
I'd have to call a few Insane Clown Posse song's my guiltiest pleasure by far. (Though they can be very funny :-( )
My regular rotation consists of White Zombie, Pantera, Mudvayne, Korn, System of a Down, Ozzy, Metallica and Marilyn Manson though, so most of you wouldn't have any appreciation for my NON Guilty pleasure musical taste.
-
hmmmmm guilty pleasures? Maybe Machinehead, Job for a cowboy, The Black Dahlia Murder, Pig Destroyer and other Metal-/Deathcore stuff :roll:
-
*sigh* Bush. Really.
-
Relient K, Panic at the Disco, Linkin Park
-
Jazzmatazz.
-
Why would anyone consider Los Campesinos! or Feist a guilty pleasure?
Also, Supergrass are pretty cool.
-
Personally, i would consider Feist a hanging offence but Los Campesinos! are pretty good anyway.
For me its Frou Frou and Jem.
-
"Boten Anna" is ridiculous and tends to get played when me and friends are dancing drunk. And apparently some people have beef with Depeche Mode.
-
oops, forgot Jem, and Hadaway
-
Uh, I have all Green Days albums from 1.039/S.O.S.H. to Bullet In a Bible and still listen to them profusely. I still like Blink-182. I love Panic At The Disco. The first Fall Out Boy albums were pretty good. and all that shit. Voila!
-
Also, Supergrass are pretty cool.
I'm a fan anyway but I saw them play late last year and they tore the place apart.
-
I've no guilt to say that I like Justin Timberlake.
I will however admit that I like one of the songs off Nickleback's new album.
-
hmmmmm guilty pleasures? Maybe Machinehead, Job for a cowboy, The Black Dahlia Murder, Pig Destroyer and other Metal-/Deathcore stuff :roll:
You shouldn't be guilty about any of those bands (except maybe Brokeback Mountain). Machinehead are one of the most solid live bands I've ever seen - metal or othergenrewise, and minus the Burning Red/Supercharger era of subpar music, all of their other albums are excellent. Lots of people I've known who like them also believe their two most recent are their best. The Black Dahlia Murder are also not a guilt-inducing band. Their vocalist is an amazing lyricist (see: Unhallowed), their guitars are fast, melodic, and catchy (though a tad repetitive), and the drummers they've had on their albums all sounded like they had 8 arms and legs. And Pig Destroyer? Are you kidding me? Scott Hull pretty much single-handedly pioneered the grindcore genre with his 7 string barage of downtuned riffs. Be proud. Blast it Loud. (wow i just made that up) :-D
As for me, I have a tendency to listen to 80's rock/metal. Accept, Skid Row, Def Leopard, Whitesnake, Van Halen...
-
All Killer No Filler.
-
I would rather listen to Sum 41 than anything by Linkin Park.
-
I've no guilt to say that I like Justin Timberlake.
I will however admit that I like one of the songs off Nickleback's new album.
Nickelback. >.<
I really love Nickelback, even if I shouldn't, but I can't stand their new album. It's a whole new pinnacle of selling out for them.
I also listen to way too much Marilyn Manson. I don't know what anyone's opinion of him/them is here, but I'm slightly obsessed. :|
-
IF YOU LIKE IT THEN YOU SHOULD'VE PUT A RING ON IT
PARTY BEN MASHUP TIME GO!
Beyonce + Andy Griffith theme song = Single Ladies (In Mayberry)
Check it.
http://www.partyben.com/PartyBen-SingleLadies(InMayberry).mp3 (http://www.partyben.com/PartyBen-SingleLadies(InMayberry).mp3)
This is probably the ultimate guilty pleasure.
-
single ladies runs through my head often, though i do not own and have not downloaded it, so i guess there's no guilt involved, as no particular actions have been taken towards listening to it; it's just catchy as fuck.
two of my biggest pleasures, which i almost universally hide from people unless it becomes clear that they are kindred souls are
A) the sound of music
B) disney songs
now disney songs i love because of childhood, immaculate popsongcraft, and a few i genuinely just like (not in nottingham, bare necessities, etc)
but the sound of music i fucking love. with pretty much every fiber of my soul. and i have absolutely no shame or guilt about this whatsoever, though i have realized over the years that it really doesn't gain the respect of many peers.
but fuck them, man. rodgers and hammerstein are amazing; i don't care how out of fashion un-ironic musicals are, christopher plummer singing edelweiss is devastating.
outside of that:
blink-182 (stoked they're back together)
journey
meatloaf

I never understood the "Sell-Out" arguement when it came to Nickelback. Granted most of the stuff we hear from the radio from them is Rock watered down to be Pop-ish Mainstream. That being said, anytime ive had a chance to listen to one of their albums the best songs are the ones that will never be released as a single. Side of a Bullet stands out in that category. I'm also not ashamed to say their songs "Never Again" and "Animals" are on my playlists.
When it comes to Manson, he's almost his own genre now to me. His musical styles have changed drastically over the years, but hes still undeniably MANSON. I'm glad to admit that if there is a Manson Genre, I'm a fan.
-
Most of thoses arent even that bad :D
Though I do like Bayley's attitude
My songs that I'm not ashamed of but people give me shit for;
Jesus Christ Superstar soundtrack.
The Lion King Soundtrack
Aqua yknow Barbie Girl and the like
oh and the macarena.
Yeah im cool.
Usually its all like hardcore/underground hiphop or Metal and stuff cos I hang out with bogans
yup.
-
"Never Again"
I thought you were going for the Kelly Clarkson "Never Again". Which, I admit, is on my iPod. But why not? It's kinda catchy and she's hot ;-). Besides I have too many guilty pleasures haha.
Jesus Christ Superstar soundtrack.
I'm not really religious at all, but I agree that this is a pretty good soundtrack. But it makes sense, all the instruments and main singing parts were played by pretty big 1970's musicians.
-
I don't really feel too guilty about anything I like. I get some raised eyebrows when people see Jacko on my iPod, though, and liking My Chemical Romance got me a little ridicule. Back in 8th grade I'd hide my Jewel and Avril CDs so nobody would see them. And I sometimes listen to Linkin Park. The only song I don't play in my car unless I'm alone is Maneater. I LOVE THAT SONG.
-
a guilty pleasure seems like a ridiculous concept to me. if you think a band is good why the hell should you feel guilty about it? for example, i think welcome home by coheed & whatever is a pretty reasonable song. and i have no problems with this. if you feel guilty about liking something then it sounds like in a way you really dont like it and you are listening to it for some strange reason.
-
One word.
XANADU.
:mrgreen:
-
Rush is maybe a bit too distateful to admit, man.
-
if you think a band is good why the hell should you feel guilty about it?
Well, on the one hand I agree with you because I feel no guilt about anything I listen to. On the other hand, there's a difference between liking something and thinking it's good. I listen to plenty of music which I consider to be fucking terrible. Still like it, though.
-
One word.
XANADU.
:mrgreen:
Is there anybody else who thinks of Dave, Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich when they see Xanadu? I never think of Rush somehow.
-
Rush? Xanadu was ELO's bitch.
On a different note... another guilty-pleasure song of mine that just earwormed into my head: "The Things We Do For Love" by 10cc. (Like walking in the raaain and the snooow...)
-
Rush is maybe a bit too distateful to admit, man.
You shut your goddamned mouth.
2112 rules, Hemispheres rules (except the Trees) Vapour Trails rules, Feedback rules.
Coming over there to punch you in the mouth right now

ELO... a guilty pleasure?

I genuinely think Taking Back Sunday are a good band.

I don't think so myself. Paired with Olivia Newton-John and a little Cliff Richard (not to mention a swing/rock mashup with Fee Waybill), though, it may seem odd to most people.

Don't get me wrong, I listen to a lot of Nickelback. But listening to their new album...ugh. I listened through it, and it sounded like, basically, "Song about sex, about drinking, about sex, radio song, radio song, sex song, drug song, sex song, sex song." Some of my favourites are the ones that'll never get airplay (Animals, Because of You, Deep), but listening to their albums you can tell as time goes on that they're writing more and more for the radio.
As for Manson...the difference in his styles really does shock me. The difference between Antichrist Superstar and Golden Age of Grotesque are noticeable. The band actually tried new things instead of rehashing the same old sound.
Also...whoever says Rush is a guilty pleasure - I will be visiting you shortly with a baseball bat. Same goes for ELO.
-
Tender, i just assumed that it was songs/bands you like but you would be ashamed to talk about in an average conversation. Hence me admitting to finding a few Insane Clown Posse songs funny.
-
I've been known to pop in a Ween album from time to time. As well as MSI.
-
Heeeey, Ween is awesome. I've not known anyone to consider Ween a guilty pleasure.
-
push the little daisies and make 'em come up!
-
I genuinely think Taking Back Sunday are a good band.
As popular as they became, i would not consider Taking Back Sunday a guilty pleasure, just like I wouldn't call listened to Brand New a guilty pleasure.
-
Well, Taking Back Sunday would definitely be a guilty pleasure to me because they're pretty much only liked by the teen indie crowd.
Brand New, however, are a great band anyway.
And i'm going to add The Spill Canvas to here for the same reasons as i would add Taking Back Sunday.
-
I've been known to pop in a Ween album from time to time. As well as MSI.
Oh come on, they're graphics cards are great.
(About 2 people are going to laugh at that)
-
Well i'm not a teen and definitely not part of the indie crowd. But i guess some people feel guilty about things that they shouldn't feel guilty about, cause TBS can still be listened too without feeling like a "teen indie" kid. IMO.
-
Beastie Boys
What's wrong with the Beastie Boys? The Mix Up is amazing. A lot of their b-sides are instrumental too.
Their rap isn't bad either.
-
I've been known to pop in a Ween album from time to time. As well as MSI.
MSI. For shame. (Me too)
Black Eyed Peas just came on at random and I still haven't changed it yet. :|
Actually, it's not entirely terrible.
-

I only know them as a GPU company...what band are you guys talking about :( ?
-----
As for me:
- Vengaboys - "Sex on the Beach"
- The Killers
- OK Go (although I honestly only like their music videos)
- HIM
I think that about covers it.
-
I only know them as a GPU company...what band are you guys talking about :( ?
Here (http://www.youtube.com/msivideo) is their youtube channel.
Killers shouldn't be a guilty pleasure. Not for me anyway.
-
Lily Allen.
-
Mindless Self Indulgence, I have all thier CD's.
My Chemical Romance, hust one CD but that's bad enough.
I can't help it.
-
So many of these bands aren't even guilty pleasures at all. MSI? Is actually fantastic, both live and on record.
You know what's a guilty pleasure? TATU. But I friggin love it.
I also pretty much have a general love of anything produced in the nineties for nostalgic purposes. Sigh, the sweet simplicity of pre-adolescence
-
Lily Allen.
There is no need for shame.
-
I was a card-carrying Hanson fan for all of my teenage years and I still have the urge to pop Middle of Nowhere in every couple of weeks. I listened to that album for hours on end every day for years, and I was mocked hideously for it back then... imagine if people knew now....
-
And all you can say is; mmmm'BOP.
My guilty pleasure is together with my girlfriend singing along to the Hercules soundtrack.
Hercules is awesome.
-
Lion King.
Used to be able to quote that whole movie from start to finish, might possibly be able to now but id need to be watching it
-
I am not guilty about any of my pleasures.
I have 22 bands listed under the "Pop Punk & Emo" genre in my iTunes, 10 under "Commercial Pop". Mika, My Chemical Romance, Sum 41... I am totally okay with all of this.
-
Abba. Their sense of pop songcraft is quite impressive honestly. They made very whistleable music. It's just a shame they're so ridiculously awful.
-
Smash Mouth.
-
Lily Allen.
I was going to mention her. she's fun though, I enjoy her latest album quite a bit.
The Killers are not a guilty pleasure. I just read an article about how they are so versatile because they are "mainstream" yet loved by the indie scene too. love love love Killers.
Ingrid Michaelson? Jack Johnson? Snow Patrol? I don't know, I love them. But people tell me I shouldn't. You just gotta learn to ignore those people, though.
I also enjoy Polka which puzzles anyone who finds out.
-
I have some old nu-metal and metalcore that isn't any good that I occasionally listen to out of nostalgia, but other than that my music listening is pretty guilt-free. If I really enjoy something, I'm not ashamed to say I do.
-
Taking Back Sunday & Brand New for me to.
I'm getting kicked out of Hardcore.
Lot's of cheesy Hip Hop like Ludacris etc. for dancing all slutty to at the end of the night.
I have a saved playlist of it.
Although I like calling them PROUD pleasures!
-
Mindless Self Indulgence.
You may commence to stone me.
xD
-
Occasionally I'll get shit for Aimee Mann or Dan Tyminski.
Usually, though, it's the Battlestar Galactica soundtracks that do me in. :-[
-
Is System of a Down guilty-pleasurish? I mean, just the dash of Armenian music that they add to their own is enough to make it stand out from most of the other nu-metal out there. Plus I think their vocalist has a fun voice. Not necessarily good, and definitely irritating, at first listen, but fun.
-
Why should anyone feel guilty for listening to System of a Down? They're AMAZING.
And I really don't consider them Nu-Metal. Especially not with their last album.
-
Serj Tankian is amazing, at least. That weasley guy has the voice of a thousand dying whos.
Mine is early Green Day. I know a lot of people here who like their early stuff, but for me, it's so not myself to like them and listen to them as much as I do. They're nothing like anything else in my library (Sigur Ros, Bon Iver, Bob Dylan, Okkervil River, etc.).
-
Yeah, okay, Dream Theater. The lyrics are so cheesy, but I can't help it!
Also, Debussy, Ravel, Godard, Saint Saens, etc. Classical music - which really isn't something I'm guilty about, but I get mocked for it.
-
I'd definitely say SoaD is a guilty pleasure, but certainly not for me. I really don't like Serj Tankian. Also, I saw him open for the Foo Fighters a year or two ago and for 1) the band name was annoying and 2) he was dressed in a white top hat & suit, and tried dancing and party-boying around the stage. It was annoying.
