You guessed it (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NN75im_us4k)
-
That was amazing.
-
Holy fuck. This is awesome.
-
That's pretty cool, the dude took two pretty subpar songs and made them into one subpar song.
-
i'm gonna have to give that a thumbs up. it's funny, however bad the songs are.
-
This is way better than either of the two songs.
-
Why the Nirvana disliking? Personally I don't mind much either way, but I always thought they were rather popular?
Still hilarious ofc.
-
fuck you all, Smells Like Teen Spirit is the first song I ever liked.
-
Fucking hell. Does this mean that all you kids hate nirvana the same way I hated on Van Halen and Bon Jovi when I was your age?
-
Van Halen are too hilarious to be hated.
nirvana are ok i guess
-
fuck you all, Smells Like Teen Spirit is the first song I ever liked.
me too! in 1998 4 years after he was dead :(
-
Tiny text isn't terribly funny. You used the wrong form of 'too' there.
Also I don't like the way you smell.
And neither does your mom.
She mentioned that the other night.
While I was videotaping here.
Having sex with a llama.
-
Wait did I say llama? I meant me. I get those mixed up all the time.
-
I would like to apologize for my behaviour herein. I meant no malice by my actions. It was purely a physical thing.
-
I'm not entirely sure what james was saying (I rarely am anyway) but I'd just like to say I agree with him 100%.

Because it's hipster! "OMG I HATE NIRVANA THEY'RE OVERRATED AND THEY SUCK AND KURT COBAIN SHOULD DIE OH WAIT HE ALREADY DID LOL1!!!!!"
Nothx. I'm not a huge fan of Nirvana, but they fer sure don't suck, certainly not as bad as so many people claim they do.
Then again, it's probably a way of distancing yourself from all the CRAZY-arse Nirvana fangirls who wear Kurt sweaters and furiously ejaculate nonsense like "I LIKED GREEN DAY BEFORE THEY WERE SELLOUTS!1!1!11!!"
-
I ejaculated on Green Day before they were sell-outs.
-

One of my favorite highschool moments was telling a girl wearing a shirt with kurt on the front that its a good thing nirvana stopped making music so that dave grohl could go on and make the foo fighters.
-

wait what? There weren't any Kurt Cobain sweaters when I was in highschool, and he was actually recording music then.
-
I dunno, I thought Nevermind would have been a pretty good album if it wasn't massively overproduced. I don't know what posessed them to take a relatively lo-fi, bare boned type band and then polish the fuck out of it. The overdubs were hugely unnecessary and detrimental to the album.
The whole grunge phase that followed probably didn't help either - by the time it was over, even the original albums and bands were played out.
-

That was me stereotyping the stereotypical stereotype of the stereotypical girl who stereotypically listens to nothing but Nirvana.
-
How stereotypical.

Why would you do that?

You should've said "It's a good thing Kurt Cobain killed himself so that Dave Grohl could go on and make the Foo Fighters."
-
Man that is kind of like saying "I am glad the Beatles broke up so that Paul could make Flaming Pie" if you are the kind of person who does not really like the Beatles that much
-
I'm glad the Beatles broke up so Ringo could narrate "Thomas the Tank Engine". I mean, the Beatles were great and all, but guys, c'mon, Thomas. The. Motherfucking. Tank. Engine.

hate on "smells like teen spirit" which was huge for a reason
imagine :x gettin bigger and bigger until it consumes your screen. slowly your monitor distends and a yellow glob emerges tumourously from within, splitting your lcd like a snake sheds its skin. you want to run but you can't. its frown stretches to infinity

thomas the tank engine
my dentist used to have a thomas the tank engine playset in the waiting room. i loved it. I want one now.

Johnny CANNOT STAND people NOT LIKING the THINGS HE LIKES.
Nirvana are dull as fuck, and overplayed to a ludicrous degree. I think Nevermind was on the CD changer in my school common room for a solid month once. Tedious music for tedious people. Kurt Cobain was a cool guy though, shame about him.
Also literally everything that other members of Nirvana have gone on to do has been absolutely execrable, apart from one or two Probot songs, which were ok.
-
Aww ...
Nirvana did some worthwhile stuff. Nevermind s good and, honestly, that thing they did for MTV unplugged was great. A nice little wake, really.
But, yeah ... Foofighters suck. Anything ever touched by an ex member of Nirvana sucked, really.
-

Dave Grohl drummed for QOTSA and Cat Power (Songs for the Deaf and You Are Free, respectively).
Definitely not wastes of time.
-
You should've said "It's a good thing Courtney Love killed Kurt Cobain so that Dave Grohl could go on and make the Foo Fighters."
-
Oh its a hip thing to mock a band that hasn't produced music in an age... okay.
Its sort of like the whole "I would like snow patrol if they weren't so commercial" thing isn't it? Like blaming "the man" for everything but being too lazy to do anything about it, or doing it to get girls.
-
I would like Snow Patrol if they weren't so tedious.
-
I tend to avoid terms like 'commercial' as they weaken an argument by bringing with them charged/radicalizing preconceptions people carry towards them/their use.
P.S.: Oh god I always forget who Snow Patrol are until they come up here and then I look them up and remember I fucking hate snow patrol. They're a terribly tacky sentimental bullshit band.
-
If you don't like them fine. I'm not saying everyone should, but when people say they don't like them because of some reason that isn't actually related to the actual music produced then what the heck?
It just strikes me as silly when they don't like a band for nothing to do with actual music produced. I mean I like bands most people with "taste" won't touch, but I like them anywhere.
-
See, I maintain that "they're too commercial" can actually be a valid argument relating to the quality of their music. I think they sound too commercial, they belong to a school of musical activity where their sound and message appears to be directly marketed towards a certain demographic (that being people who like tacky make-out music) and in this commercial approach they have failed to make meaningful or even entertaining music to me. Their production process reeks of the sound of blandly produced inoffensive commercially saleable music and this means I do not like it. I do not like it because I feel they are too commercial.
I would never enter an argument about snow patrol by saying they are too commercial, though, because someone will come along and talk about how I've just got a problem with the man and then mention something else negative about my character because of what they read into me by my choice of words. I'd much rather give a brief, concise argument than say they're sell outs.
-
I don't really like make out music, but I like slowish stuff that I can work along to. I can see your reasoning but I still like them, and surely you yourself give music its emotional punch, as much as any musician does?
-
I don't really want to argue about the merits of snow patrol, I'd much rather just insult them, have you say I'm wrong, and then let us part furious at each other for being awful people.
What I really would argue though is that the argument 'they are too corporate' is not in and of itself a flawed argument or deserving of derision. That's all I'm saying.
-
Fine sorry, getting hung up on specifics again, I do apoligise. I will accept that "too corportate" is an arguement, I would just prefer it if people would expand on it, instead of saying that anything corporate produced is evil. It would be better if there was some expansion of it.
BTW the original case was some who actually liked the music they did, but just said they were too "corporate"
-

Queens of the Stone Age are fucking dreadful.

I will always prefer Kyuss.

Y'know, I only actually posted this thread our of irony, because by July 2009, I figured we'd be done with Rick Astley, and heck, even I'm tired of that song. Then it turned into a giant cluster@#$% of Hipster biases and elitist Indier-than-thou opinions that are ironically forced onto themselves just because something was popular, until it descended into something horrible where people decided to start arguing about obviously unrelated bands and derailing the thread until it's original purpose is totally lost among the wish-wash of scorn and BS. In retrospect, I should have posted this in the pointless thread.
In short, all I really meant to say was; GET OUT OF MY THREAD WITH YOUR VILE DISGUSTING QOTSA HATRED.

This is kind of like saying REM suck because you've heard Automatic for the People too many times.
also someone has pointed out that this mashup is kind of skin-crawling, right?
-
Nah, REM just kinda suck generally.
Sorry.
-

Why didn't you just post it in the pointless thread, then?
-

get outta here ya goofball! ha ha. but seriously. get out

I wasn't actually thinking right at the time. Sorries.

What. They're a pretty bland proposition. A few alright songs but nothing you choose to put on. They're better than Queens of the Stone Age, which are fucking pap.
Your attitude seems to be kind of hypocritical, you're castigating me for not enjoying something but simultaneously implying I am elitist? Dude, I just don't like these bands. Sorry. I don't choose what I do and do not like based on some arcane chart of what's 'cool' and 'uncool'. I love Soft Cell, Visage and Heaven 17, among a lot of other things. I am sorry for not having a taste in music that more precisely mirrors Rolling Stones list of the best 500 songs.
-
A few alright songs but nothing you choose to put on.
please tell this to the cassette copy of document in my car. please tell this to the record with "finest worksong" and "the one i love" on it. i won't do that for you. i want you to watch it cry
-
Johnny just because you like a song it doesn't mean everyone does.
I'm really sorry to have to break this to you.
-
Y'know, I only actually posted this thread our of irony, because by July 2009, I figured we'd be done with Rick Astley, and heck, even I'm tired of that song.
You seem upset. Maybe you need a break from the internet?
-
Man, Khar can keep hating on the R.E.M.s, Johnny can go driving in his car and listen to Document, and meanwhile I'm gonna go put on Fables of the Reconstruction and we'll all go home happy.
-
When I said "car," I meant "station wagon." Sorry for the mix-up.
-
That's okay, when I said Fables of the Reconstruction I meant Reconstruction of the Fables.

No, I was just trying to build up to the "GET OUT OF MY THREAD WITH YOUR VILE DISGUSTING QOTSA HATRED."
-
QOTSA.
Teehee.

I think you kinda missed the point somewhere.
-
All your music tastes suck.
My music taste is awesome.

What is the point of a cover if you are gonna play it exactly the same as it already was? Especially when you can't do it as well - I mean I like Orange Goblin but Ben Ward can not pull off Ozzy vocals.
Also:
Oh its a hip thing to mock a band that hasn't produced music in an age... okay.
Its sort of like the whole "I would like snow patrol if they weren't so commercial" thing isn't it? Like blaming "the man" for everything but being too lazy to do anything about it, or doing it to get girls.
what? How does not liking things get you girls? That seems counter-intuitive - if it were true Khar would be the worlds greatest sex symbol.
-
Ahem.

oh my god
-
holy shit
(PS this QOTSA/Grohl song is fucking awesome (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EykQK0OOaRU))
-
That's freakin' awesome.
-
So wait seriously Khar is that a shop?
-
No. I am the Worlds Greatest Sex Symbol.
-
oh hey look at this completely unrelated thing i found (http://lindsaywarner.harcourts.com.au/featureimage/lindsaywarner/Linds%20holding%20trophy.JPG)
-
Dude, do you think every trophy is made unique? They churn 'em out in factories, print different messages on them. You can clearly see that my trophy has a different message on.
-
so I stand corrected
-
I haven't been around here that long, but for some reason, part of me doesn't want that to be real.
-
Personally, I'm enjoying the idea that all those names on the trophy are the people Khar had to defeat in mortal sexy combat to take the title.
-
My friend says he looks like a Proudfoot.
EDIT::
Also, I call shenanigans on that trophy.
-
I was under the impression that I had left the photoshop job just obvious enough to be funny (the mismatched arm/sleeve for example) but maybe not.
Also I am too tall for a hobbit. I see myself more as a Kittelsen troll.

-
Holy fuck Khar
You look just like me and that is terrifying
(Are we tied for world's greatest sex symbol?)
-
Oh shit there's two of him now?
-
I call bullshit. No one can look just like Khar.
-
I haven't been around here that long, but for some reason, part of me doesn't want that to be real.

Not just like, no. But close enough.

I need a better picture than that where I don't look like a blueberry
Edit: Okay my roommate just took my picture (and I hate having my picture taken) and I think it's mostly the hair and glasses that we have in common.
-
If someone told me those two people in those two photographs were the same person at different points in time, I'd believe it.
-
I always just imagined he looked like Silent Bob.
-
Yeah me too.
