we all have it. that one cd we have hidden under our mattress...the one we only bring out when NOONE is around, and it's dancing in our underwear time....
confession cleanses the souls, brothers and sisters. CONFESS, so that your mind may be free.
i'll begin.
i...i like the killers. i know. i know. i can't help it. i try not to. really, i do. but their poppy beats, and completely obvious depeche mode ripoffs are just too much for me. i listen to them, and i smile...oh god...i'm sick...
your turn
-
wow...only one bad cd...your doing better than me i have about 30
the worst of the bunch
Turbo, jugulator, demolition - judas priest -i got a box set
St. Anger - Metallica - i don't know what they were thinking here, not only did they manage to alienate every old listener of the band but also and new people who hadn't heard them before
once more with feeling bonus disc placebo - the bonis disc is nothing but dance remixes...it's horrirfic
slipknot - slipknot - i made the mistake of telling someone i listened to metal and they got me this for my birthday, meanwhile i really hate throwing away presents so i havn't goten rid of this
-
oof. slipknot. that's bad alright. although, at least it's not limp bizkit. take solace in that.
also, that's not my only bad cd. i also (god help me) against, by sepultura. that, and the fact that i have, and can sing along to every song on, deja entandu by brand new pretty much guarantees me a seat on the train bound for hell.
-
I have nothing to confess. I have things I imagine some people might think I should be embarrassed by, such as Cyndi Lauper, The Dance Hall Crashers and Greenday, but rather than hiding these records I have a tendency to get drunk and explain, at length, just why there's nothing wrong with some good pop music.
-
i happen to agree with the fact that there is a time and place for good pop music. i'm not talking about that (i happen to like cindy lauper, dance hall crashers, and green day as well). i'm talking about stuff we know, absolutely, sucks, yet we cannot stop listening to. we like it even though it's bad for us. kind of like candy bars, or al franken.
-
I suppose a lot of people on this board could put forth the arguement that my copy of "Song for America" by Kansas falls into this catagory.
I submit that these people are soulless robots
-
I'm either too self-justifying or just have far too much bad taste to have any records like that. I'll even back up my liking up Lily Allen's LDN.
-
I used to to say that I had nothing in my collection to be ashamed of, but that was before I started listening to Panic! At the Disco. God help me.
-
I have Silverchair's Best Of, which my sister bought for me, she used to have a massive "OMG: Daniel" thing going on and insisted I own at least on of their cds and I have to admit it's not all bad.
-
Cyndi Lauper is by no means bad music. There is nothing better than the cheesiness of Girls Just Wanna Have Fun for all kinds of inebriated dance-related antics.
-
While I'm not particularely ashamed of them I do listen to some things that I know aren't very good and that most people probably hate. Most of them are leftovers from the time long past when I was into nu-metal. Some of them indicate that I was nearly going to turn emo before this forum saved me with it's music recommendations, so, uh, thanks guys!
Here's my list:
Incubus (S.C.I.E.N.C.E.*, Make Yourself, Morning View)
Disturbed (The Sickness, Believe*, Ten Thousand Fists)
Staind (Break The Cycle*, 14 Shades Of Grey)
Slipknot (The Subliminal Verses)
Godsmack (Godsmack*, Awake, Faceless, The Other Side EP*, IV)
Dashboard Confessional (Swiss Army Romance, So Impossible EP*, The Places You Have Come To Fear The Most)
Midtown (Save The World Lose The Girl, Living Well Is The Best Revenge, Forget What You Know*)
Orgy (Candyass, Vapour Transmission*)
Pantera (Power Metal, Cowboys From Hell, Vulgar Display Of Power*, Far Beyond Driven, The Great Southern Trendkill)
* denotes records I actually still think kick major ass.
-
I don't have any bad C.D.s. I only have good C.D.s nobody else likes.
-
Turbo, jugulator, demolition - judas priest -i got a box set
Sir, Judas Priest are one of the greatest bands of all time.
-
Prozzak - Hot Show
Would be my one. I love it to death. When the occasional friend will give a listen they either think it's hillariously awesome or just stupid. Don't tell me I'm the only person that thinks that Aqua, Venga Boys, etc are just too much fun.
PS: Did you know that the two guys in Prozzak are from the Philosopher Kings? I didn't until two months ago...
-
Incubus
Nothing to be ashamed of, Incubus are a good band.
-
I only have like 3 cds that I am vaguely embarrassed by and I'm not all that embarrassed really, AFI - DecemberUnderground (it's really just an extension of Sing The Sorrow so I like it anyway), Coal Chamber - Chamber Music (I think I've listened to it once, I wasn't impressed but I don't throw cds away) and Sevendust ?- Home. (That guy is like the Lenny Kravitz of "metal").
Incubus
Nothing to be ashamed of, Incubus were a good band.
Fixed.
-
*sigh* yeah.
-
Well, I listen to psychobilly often, and that's some crap music - so over 200 albums right there.
-
You all have NOTHING on me. I have, in my possession a SIGNED Shaquille O'Neal "Here Comes The Reign" cd. Nawgh.
Though, I can't say that I've ever listened to it...so it might not count...
-
I don't think I have anything in my collection right now that I'm ashamed of - I tend to go through my cd's once a year or so and take everything that makes me ill into the store for trade credit - but I've had a list of winners in the past. ?There was a time back in my younger years when I owned copies of Disturbed's Down With The Sickness (a sin for which no amount of repentance will ever make me feel absolved), that one Staind cd, and I used to be one of the biggest P.O.D. fanboys I knew of*. ?Also, I remember trying to argue the point to a friend of mine many moons ago that Papa Roach's cd Infest was a masterpiece...
*To be fair, a lot of what they did pre-Atlantic days, when they were underground was less shitty...they still were rap-metal nonsense, but at least they had some kind of passion for what they were doing then...
So now I guess I've finally acknowledged my horrible nu-metal past...I really do feel a lot better already!
-
Oh yeah. Bryan Adams. So Far So Good. I listened to that album like it was a fucking religion.
-
I will readily admit that I listen to a lot of very bad music. I don't hide it at all. I think that among my friends, I have the unique ability to appreciate music that isn't very good.
-
I personally say that what's in the cubboard cd-wise is a glossary and colage over-view of my life up to this point. Yes there is stuff that I do not play anymore but that are part of me. So ... no bad. Just ... me.
That said, I own two spice girls albums. Apparantly Girl Power is part of me.
-
Lindsay Lohan.
All her songs are within my range (I don't sing. My range is like negative) so it is fun to sing along to at the top of my lungs, usually whilst driving. Kelly Clarkson is another guilty pleasure, but I actually think she's good so it doesn't count.
-
So now I guess I've finally acknowledged my horrible nu-metal past...I really do feel a lot better already!
when i was sixteen, i owned limp bizkit's first album.
gah.
-
I used to be so into the Strokes it hurt.
I still don't think they suck, but that new album was awful and they did become poster children for over-hyped NY rock.
-
Incubus
Nothing to be ashamed of, Incubus are a good band.
I'm not ashamed. I just posted the stuff that most people I know consider bad. They were sortof lumped with the whole nu-metal movement, so yeah.
And yeah, Crow Left Of The Murder was pretty bad. Haven't heard the new one.
-
i own three offspring albums and the first linkin park album and when renimation came out, i down loaded that...and liked it. i don't listen to any of those currently but at times i do find myself listening to.....chevelle *cringe*
-
I... I listen to New Found Glory. Except for their most recent album. What I heard from that was too crap, even for me.
-
The first post doesn't make clear whether I can make fun of you all.
Please inform.
Well that depends, tommy my boy; would you say 'ha ha, you booze-fuelled pissant' to someone admitting they had a problem at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting?
-
All of my music is embarressing... Most horrific however... Hilary Duff (BOTH of her CD's actually...), NSYNC, and probably Ace of Base.
-
I like hair metal & power ballads.
I've seen Poison live 5 times. They toured with Winger once, and I liked that too. I sang along with Winger.
I'm going to go scrub myself with steel wool to get the dirty off
-
I mean, I like everything Tim Kinsella has recorded over the years.
Is there some kind of trick to this? Like a magic eye picture?
I own several Toad the Wet Sprocket CDs, retained from my youth. I don't really listen to them anymore, but I still think "Scenes from a vinyl recliner" is a good song. It's about clowns or something.
[Edit: hey wow, free extraneous question marks. What causes that?]
-
Pantera (Power Metal, Cowboys From Hell, Vulgar Display Of Power*, Far Beyond Driven, The Great Southern Trendkill)
Hey, I happen to think Pantera made some pretty awesome stuff. RIP, Mr. Darrell.
Apparently, from other threads I've seen in here, I'm not supposed to like The Strokes, but I happen to like all of their stuff as far as albums go.
Something I know I'm supposed to be ashamed of but am not: Creed. I think I own all three albums they made, as well. Admittedly, I didn't realize how big of a total fuckface cuntwad that Scott Stapp is else I probably would have never listened to the band at all.
-
Cyndi Lauper is by no means bad music. There is nothing better than the cheesiness of Girls Just Wanna Have Fun for all kinds of inebriated dance-related antics.
I've often said, and will continue to say, that nothing Fugazi, Slint or Skyclad have ever done is as good a song as Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time"
-
Dude, you posted why I was writing and said exactly what I was thinking I wrote:
"I'd submit that Time After Time is one of the top 5 songs of all time."
Re: bad music
I have a lot of Sublime- most of the music I don't consider very good but nostolgia has me listening on occasion. I think Everclear has become an absolute disaster of an act but I still listen to So Much For the Afterglow quite a bit. Again nostolgia but I also think its a great album. So bad band, good album.
I also agree that the Killers write some catchy songs but I sort of define catchy as good. They are annoyingly earnest though. I guess I have a pretty broad definition of good music though.
-
I have some Good Charlotte, Smash Mouth, The Offspring, Avril Lavigne, and probably the thing I'm least proud of, Christina Aguilera.
-
Turbo, jugulator, demolition - judas priest -i got a box set
Sir, Judas Priest are one of the greatest bands of all time.
i absolutly agree with you with the exception of the short period of when owen "the ripper" wilson was their front man and the turbo cd
other than that they're my favorite band
-
I think what would be embarassing about my taste is just how eclectic the sum of its shameful parts is:
1. When i was 12, i used to wear a Yankees cap. I think we all know why. Lord...please spare me.
2. Strangely enough, i also had a soft spot for cheesy New Age pseudo-celtic music.
So there you have it, a nu-metal kid who also happened to appreciate the badassness of Enya.
Oh yeah, and i've had The Girl from Ipanema on repeat for like two days now.
-
i...i like the killers.
Man the first three tracks on the new album are absolutely dynamite. It definitely swerves downwards at track four, the title of which is way fucking embarrassing, and only picks up for "This River Is Wild," "Bones" and "Exitlude." Also their live performance is awkward as all hell.
And there is nothing wrong with Prozzak. Prozzak are modern geniuses.
-

I'd argue Aguilera is the one to be most proud of from that bunch!
-
Wow, I used to have all sorts of bad rap-metal from middle school days, but now that I've gotten rid of that I'm really not ashamed of anything. I listen to some stuff some metalheads would kill me for, but I don't care.
There is a bit of random pop stuff in my library I like listening to and realize that is very commerical music, but I just don't care, everything from Boston to Rammstein to A.F.I. to Billy Idol. There is other pop in my library that I think perfectly respectable music on its own terms.
-
I occasionally listen to Ashlee Simpson. And i enjoy it.
edit:? Well, I enjoy it for about 10 minutes, before I get bored and have to switch to something else
-
does this mean you have the cd because the radio dosn't play more than 3 minutes in a row as far as i know
-
Nickelback. Do I win?
-
did you read the rest of the thread?
-
This thread makes me feel a lot of things.
Makes me feel intelligent and sophisticated. More so than you guys.
-
No, really, like, how old are you all? 10?
-
I'm sorry, a lot of you are probably hard of hearing.
Right?
-
No, I really do apologise. I mean, a lot of you probably don't have the internet, so you can't have heard any good music at all.
-
I should stop bothering you all, you probably have math homework to do and cartoons to watch.
Remember to eat your greens and stay in school kids!
-
I'd like to take the time to warn you all about tinnitus. By listenning to bad music, you're damaging your hearing. The more you listen, the more damage you do, and the better you think the bad music actually is.
Now, some people have been listenning to bad music for an EXTREME length of time.
For these people, it is too late. Their hearing is too badly damaged and they're no longer able to hear 'good' music when it is played. I believe to them, good music sounds something like white noise.
Or, at least, this is what expirience tells me.
So, I need you ALL to stop listenning to ALL music for about a week, giving your hearing enough time to recover, then you can start on something better.
I recommend the recommendation threads.
-
Given your (guessed) collective age, I suggest you start on something soft, such as children's tv shows theme songs.
As a general rule, if it has super heroes in it, the theme song kicks ass.
Edit: I'm done now...
-
Given your (guessed) collective age, I suggest you start on something soft, such as children's tv shows theme songs.
Do we include Pete And Pete in that or is it far too juvenile and petty to start out on?
-
I'm hopelessly addicted to Simon & Garfunkel, yet not middle-aged.
I also really still enjoy Kasabian's first album even though they're supposed to be one of those flash-in-the-pan bands that stopped being cool before the record was even in stores.
And like most people of my age I got into music via nu-metal. Linkin Park's 'Hybrid Theory' and Limp Bizkit's 'Starfish' were the first two guitar albums I owned. In my defence I didn't know any better, and got over it quickly when I realised that good music existed.
Spineshank's second CD is still cool though.
-
By listenning to bad music, you're damaging your hearing. The more you listen, the more damage you do, and the better you think the bad music actually is.
Now, some people have been listenning to bad music for an EXTREME length of time.
a) I think you should consider the amount you just bothered to write in a thread that is very clearly just a bunch of us fucking around and..
b) I think you should get on the stick learning how to spell
-
I thought it was obvious from the many consecutive post and very obvious humour that I was just fucking around too.
Honestly, did anybody else think I was being remotely serious throughout ANY of that?
I know that it's an awful lot to read threw, there must be about 10 full sentences.
If you think that I'm was been serious then please get back intouch with me because I would very mutch like to know if it's just !!!CPAOI!! or weather I should change the way I post.
Thankyou in advance
-Darryl
edet-I checked the quikipedia, tinnitus is most defiantly caused bye listenning to bad music, and it most defiantly gets better with good music.
-
This just in: people sometimes get offended by jokes made on teh intarwebs.
It's true!
This is Ric Romero reporting, channel 5 news at 5.

Yeah, sorry about that. There's no tone of voice on the internet and there are a couple of people on this forum that are out and out dicks, so I wasn't sure.
-
I have some Good Charlotte...The Offspring, Avril Lavigne...
as a lover of pop-punk, i must now declare you my mortal enemy.
*slaps with glove*
PISTOLS AT DAWN.

All joking aside darryl, how dare you even try to criticize people when you once admitted to be watching MTV for hours.
-
nah, i recall questioning him and he giving the excuse that he was not looking at it and just hearing it. Or maybe this are two separate times Darryl has been watching MTV?
-
OMG TWICE
-
Look guys, Parental Control might be the best show on television.
-
Queen. I love Queen.
Really, I can't stop that, so I might as well stop there.
-
*slaps with glove*
PISTOLS AT DAWN.
I didn't have a pistol. All I have is this 12 gauge shotgun!!

Queen. I love Queen.

Again, nowt wrong with quee n
Jeesus gyus

well what the hell am i supposed to do with this single shot arquebus?
and i happen to agree with khar. queen rawks.

God bless the marketing executive who looked at Led Zeppelin and said "I like it but we need to make it gayer".
-
Def Leppard - Hysteria
What can I say I love hair metal when I'm drunk
I've also got about 10 Tatu mp3s floating around my hard drive.
A Night At The Roxbury soundtrack.
-
God bless the marketing executive who looked at Led Zeppelin and said "I like it but we need to make it gayer".
oh, right, next your gonna tell me that the village people were gay! who next, LIBERACE? geez, you just see homo's everywhere, don't you?
-
Increasingly so.
-
SOMEONE IN QUEEN WAS GAY
SHIT GUYS, THANKS FOR SPOILING THE ENDING

Damn it, that makes EVERYTHING better.
Of course, then again, I think most of rock n' roll is EXCEEDING homoerotic, intentional or not.
-
I have the first three Rise Against albums. I don't really listen to them anymore, but I have Siren Song of the Counter Culture (slooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooganeeeeeeeeeering) signed by the singer Tim and the bassist Joe, both who I met when I saw them live.
-
Well...
I confess that I find much of Green Day's stuff quite entertaining and catchy.
Would the Decemberists count? I understand why a lot of people can't stand them, but I love them to bits.
-
well, the one that I am most ashamed of (owning, I've got loads more that I'm actually glad I didn't pay for that are way worse) is Dimmu Borgir - Death Cult Armageddon.
-
This thread makes me feel so damned mainstream, it's ridiculous.
I should mention I own every Metallica album up to Garage Inc. (as in, everthing up to it, but not that actual album). There's still a handful of songs of theirs I leave on my master random playlist on my computer. Listened to them heavily in high school, and pretty much haven't since outside of the occasional track or two from And Justice For All.
My brother sent me some Avenged Sevenfold album through teh intarwebs and while I don't like the band as a whole, I think they have the potential to be something I'd listen to. Find a lead singer that doesn't sound like a woodchipper at work and most of my beefs with them would be solved.
I think Darude is pretty neat. I'm such a whore for having Sandstorm on my playlist.
Audioslave is my favorite band and it seems no one on this entire forum except for me likes them, so I guess I'll mention that as well. Although, I feel I have to say that their latest album caught the attention of a few of my friends who didn't like anything they'd done up to this point. Quoting one of them, "They sound like their own band now, not simply Rage + Chris Cornell."
-
Audioslave is your favorite band?
MEDIC!!! WE NEED A MEDIC OVER HERE!!
Pull yourself together, man!
-
Yeah, sorry about that. There's no tone of voice on the internet and there are a couple of people on this forum that are out and out dicks, so I wasn't sure.
We're cool.
As for the mtv thing...
I was, at the time, listenning to the mix Tommy made for Tania. The television was on mute, but I was paying attention to the videos that came up because a lot of them suprised the hell out of me.
A lot of bands that are popular with this forum's indie kids were played.
There was a 20 second ad featuring an 'interview' with Lou Barlow. THAT shocked me so much I bit my tongue.
I remember Emilio freaking out and telling me to turn it off as I gave a feed to gabbly. Chill guy!
And jeeze, how long ago was that now? June? Forget about it! Nobody remembers any of those 'indie' bands that were played now anyway!
-
Slint - "Spiderland" :cry:
are you kidding? slint- "spiderland" as in the slint- "spiderland" that birthed the coinage 'post rock'? correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't liking this rather influential work not something to be ashamed of?
-
FuriousWombat has a point.
Sometimes it is COOL to like something that's crappy.
-
FuriousWombat has a point.
Sometimes it is COOL to like something that's crappy.
i wasn't talking quality, i was talking about influence. several bands owe slint for progressing the genre. and while they are a bit pretentious, instrumentally they certainly aren't bad. 'post rock' was born with slint's 'spiderland,' at least as an official genre. i don't think having an appreciation for that is a negative thing.
-
It's the dynamics, guys...the dynamics...
-
Audioslave is your favorite band?
MEDIC!!! WE NEED A MEDIC OVER HERE!!
Pull yourself together, man!
Nah. I still rather like the band. Most the songs I like of theirs I haven't heard on the airways, too. Usually how those things go.
Ever heard "Getaway Car"? It's a good song! Really! I'm not making that up!
-
I tend not to think of the more embarrassing aspects of my musical taste as bad, just aimed at a target audience about a decade below me, but I still love...
Panic!At The Disco, Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance et al, along with the genius cheesy pop goodness of Nelly Furtado, Justin Timberlake, Jamelia, Baccarra, Tatu, Infernal...
It might have to do with the fact that I go to and play at a lot of gay nights, and the fact that cheesy pop is brilliant, but not everyone seems to agree with me, oh noes.

Nah, I don't think any less of you for it. Hell, The Offspring used to be my favorite band, so I have no room to talk.
-
Meat Loaf i love and listen to. i'm thinking of buying the new My Chemical Romance album and i've got several Spazzys songs and heaps of Grates b-sides (er, that might not mean much outside of Aus. Spazzys= crap female Ramones alikes)
-
the genius cheesy pop goodness of Nelly Furtado, Justin Timberlake, Jamelia, Baccarra, Tatu, Infernal...
Futuresex/Lovesounds is without a doubt one of the top 5 releases of 2006.
-
on occasion i will listen to jethro tull. i also had a major thing for the song 'all downhill from here' by new found glory. i don't know what it was about that song, maybe the over pitch corrected vocals, maybe the over the top breakdown (possibly the singer reliving his glory days in shai hulud), it was just so mtv trying to be badass that it sucked me into its tractor beam of cheese.
*hangs head in shame
eyeball kid-stop saying bad things about the spazzys! pop punk/ramones-core is where its at!
-
Something I know I'm supposed to be ashamed of but am not: Creed. I think I own all three albums they made, as well. Admittedly, I didn't realize how big of a total fuckface cuntwad that Scott Stapp is else I probably would have never listened to the band at all.
Oh, I forgot, I also own My Own Prison by Creed. I've listened to their other two records, and those are complete crap, but My Own Prison has some half decent tunes. "One" actually comes close to being a good song. Too bad Stapp is on it, ruining it.
-
Jamelia, Baccarra, Tatu
I am guilty of these as well.
Also, I still kinda adore Backstreet Boys' Millennium. It was the first CD I ever got and I'm still pretty attached to it... I'd say that's pretty shameful.

There is nothing wrong with Jethro Tull. Nothing to be ashamed of there.

Trust me, seeing them live will remove all of that.
-
im late to the list but here goes...
Fall Out Boy, Gym Class Heroes, My Chemical Romance, Smoosh, Meg and Dia, Smash Mouth, Say Anything, Hellogoodbye, and the Cardigans, and this is just whats on my computer, not even touching my old cd's. that would be to embarasing
-
I'd like to think I've gotten beyond the point of liking music and not feeling guilty if I find out others don't like it, or even hate it...but I know that's not true.
I could name a lot of AWFUL music that I used to like, but that's not the point of this thread. So I'll just say that I like the Smashing Pumpkins and Phish, the latter of whom is my favorite band, and skeedaddle away.
-
I have to admit that I enjoy Gym Class Heroes from time to time. However, I offset them by listening to plenty of truly good music.

Exactly.
They're fun on record, and they're good the first time you see them live at a small venue... but by the second show you realize that its all the same song, you're halfway through a packed set in Come Together and oh god get me out of here
er
in my opinion, anyway

I downloaded the new My Chemical Romance and Meatloaf albums this weekend

on occasion i will listen to jethro tull. i also had a major thing for the song 'all downhill from here' by new found glory. i don't know what it was about that song, maybe the over pitch corrected vocals, maybe the over the top breakdown (possibly the singer reliving his glory days in shai hulud), it was just so mtv trying to be badass that it sucked me into its tractor beam of cheese.
*hangs head in shame
eyeball kid-stop saying bad things about the spazzys! pop punk/ramones-core is where its at!
Trust me, seeing them live will remove all of that.
Exactly.
They're fun on record, and they're good the first time you see them live at a small venue... but by the second show you realize that its all the same song, you're halfway through a packed set in Come Together and oh god get me out of here
er
in my opinion, anyway
i've seen them about 5 times i think and they are better in smaller venues i reckon. i guess you either love them or hate them, they're one of my favourite aussie bands.
-
I've decided to pointlessly point out that I have
enough "bad" CDs to be crucified by most of you.
Mwuahahah. Hahahah. Hah. Hah. Hah. Eheh. ^^;
Example: All Disturbed CDs, most Incubus, several of H.I.M.s, both
Lostprophets CDs, Panic! at the Disco, several Godsmack, two
My Chemical Romance, and there's way more.
No shame.
Thank you very much, that is all.
-
both Lostprophets CDs,
Lostprophets have three albums. Presumably you're referring to the second two, which are shite. The first one is brilliant.
-
Example: All Disturbed CDs
I still say Disturbed is the best thing to come out of nu-metal.

That's a lot like saying...well you can probably see where I'm going with this. Nu metal sucks etc etc.

No actually, I'm refering to the first one- which was the best, and the second one which
was all right.
You know, that's funny, I guess I totally blocked the new one's
existence from my memory. I was really dissapointed in that CD.
And agree with TrueNeutral on Disturbed probably being the best thing
to come out of nu-metal.
-
i've got several Spazzys songs and heaps of Grates b-sides (er, that might not mean much outside of Aus. Spazzys= crap female Ramones alikes)
I will poke out the eyes of anyone who says the Spazzys and the Grates are shit.
Also, everybody already knows what my favourite bad music is.

"either love them or hate them"? I don't think they're that polarizing... sometimes its fun to hear their songs. I didn't like them the last time i saw them live... Mach Pelican is my new fave Aussie Ramones style band

Have you been to any Grates gigs in Sydney? you woulda seen me around if so....
-
Nope, I get free concerts in Newcastle because I work at the Bar On The Hill, which is the Uni bar! The Grates were awesome, but we have not seen the Spazzys there yet.
-
My Chemical Romance.
They are the bane of my existance. But I can't help. it's just so.. good.

She's actually a groupie.
Nope, I get free concerts in Newcastle because I work at the Bar On The Hill, which is the Uni bar! The Grates were awesome, but we have not seen the Spazzys there yet.
I go to free concerts because i'm either there as a music journo, there with Liveguide.com.au, or if that fails the Grates will get me in... at their last show Alana was like "I'm Alana from the Grates and I demand that this girl gets into the show!" that wasn't me though...
I'm the biggest Grates groupie on this board, i bet - seen them 8 times, got their drawings on my bag, promised Alana a Neutral Milk Hotel mix i haven't made yet, run their flickr group, got set up with a girl after their show when Pae said she was my girlfriend (the girl, not Pae) and got us drunk on Jager, then put us on the door to the Newcastle show (i couldn't go though)... went to their soundcheck party last show and insulted Craig Nicholls from the Vines... crazy stuff.
um
i probably should not have admitted that
-
Ugh, this is turning into the message board from the N.
-
Picking the best band to come out of nu-metal is like picking your favorite Uwe Boll movie.
-
I have the second My Chemicalm Romance album which I think is surprisingly ok.
I have 2 HIM albums which I quite like.
I have the old JT album plus several tracks from the new one.
AFI are my favourite band and I have every album.
I have numerous Cradle of Filth and Dimmu Borgir albums.
I feel no shame in any of this. They're all well written, well made albums. HIM and MCR are the only ones that I'm supposed to feel bad about anyway. Fuck y'al.
-
It seems everybody i've talked to has listed the new MCR album as their guilty pleasure, from P-Fork to John Darnielle to random indie people.
Face it - its a fun album, like Meat Loaf. Death is scary, and we can get all NMH about it or we can pump our fists to complete insanity
-
They have three albums. I have "Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge". I'm getting "The Black Parade" next week...

Well yeah, but if they're the first motion pictures you see I bet they'll stick with you.
Also, Alone In The Dark, definately. That shit was hilarious.
-

I thought that album was shit. A bad pop album for 14 year old emos. I liked the first album a lot when it first came out (when I bought it I had to mail-order it) and they were, in fact, the first band I ever saw live. I thought they were great (though this was, remember, my first gig), and I thought Gerard Way had the most ludicrously camp speaking voice I'd ever heard. I'd cooled off them a lot by the second album anyway, but I completely loathed it, and all its carefully calculated angst. I've only heard the title single off the new album, but it's one of the two tolerable new songs I can remember hearing on the radio this year. There's a nice eighties feel to some of the guitar work. I might have to check out the rest of it at some point when I feel like I need some cheese, though it feels more like one of those rare few songs I can tolerate when it comes on the radio, rather than anything I would actually buy or otherwise own. I also like the over-the-topness of their vids. I think I remember someone once describing them as "the neutron bombs that ended the teenage angst arms-race" or something similiar. I know that my attitude towards them is at least partly influenced by their popularity, though I also think their new stuff is far too sheeny and over-produced. I love bands like Killing Miranda and Zombina and the Skeletones which are, objectively, much sillier than MCR.
At the very least though, they do actually, on some level rock. Something very few mainstream rock bands seem to be bothering with nowadays.
-
Yeah, Ghost of You (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEiZQ4Wwx24&mode=related&search=) and I'm not OK have pretty good videos. And they're pretty good songs too.
-
AFI are my favourite band and I have every album.
I challenge you to an AFI album...um, off.
(As in, I bet I have more of them than you do and I'm not afraid to say it).

Good choice. Start Something had maybe one good song on it, the title track, which - surprise surprise - was absolutely nothing like anything they've done before or since.
-

You probably do. I don't have Very Proud of Ya. I do however have a signed copy of Art of Drowning. I also have every other CD of theirs.

Ah, very true. Now if they'd just explore what they did in that song....
Saddens me, because I'm quite certain they wont.

Face it - its a fun album, like Meat Loaf. Death is scary, and we can get all NMH about it or we can pump our fists to complete insanity
I disagree with this and with Khar. The second album was fun and basically hormonally-addled. The new album is terrible. Terrible, terrible, terrible.
Here is a game I have invented which is kind of like the Google Image Search game. It is called the "hidden track" game. This is the procedure for playing:
1) Find an album with a hidden track.
2) Listen to the hidden track.
3) Is the hidden track good? If yes, then you are listening to a good album. If no, then you are listening to a bad album.
By that token:
TV on the Radio - Return To Cookie Mountain
Hidden tracks: "Randomness," "Snakes And Martyrs," "Hours (El-P Remix)," "Things You Can Do"
The first track is just weird randomness but the other three tracks are good. Good album.
My Chemical Romance - The Black Parade
Hidden track: "Blood"[/b]
Awful track. Bad album.

Wow, that method really made.... Absolutely no sense what so ever and didn't back up
your claim that the new album is horrible.
So a diverse album with all sorts of experimentation
is worse than a hormonally addled album?
I'll add "hormonaly-addled" to my list of "Things That Make Things Good" list.
-
I've been freaking out about dying lately and listening to the title track from Black Parade this morning made things alot better. I don't know how and i don't know why, but sometimes you just need to pump your fist into the void.
Wow.
That sounded lame.
But its true
-
Any picture of AFI's frontman, What'sHisFuck, automatically trumps any picture of the entirety of MCR for sheer embarassing, How-the-fuck-do-people-take-this-band-seriously-ism.
-
Ah, so it is only acceptable to listen to bands who look like four or five random people dragged out of a third year interactive media class. Well of course. I suppose it is also okay to listen to bands who dress in cute strange costumes or wear their pyjamas while they play or something because that's just so quirky and adorable and of course every sweep of eyeliner is a leaden statement of misery and serious intent.
-
No, it's just that MCR are shit.

*almost writes up something about how judging people by appearances
is stupid, injecting a sarcastic remark about how we should all decide

...Whoah, uh, are you being serious Tommy? ^_^;
To stay on topic, I recently bought a Rise Against album.
I think it's spectacular, but does it count round these here parts?
-
While my game is potentially dangerous, it also works very well. Take Coheed and Cambria's latest album.
Coheed and Cambria - Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV: From Fear Through The Eyes Of Madness
Hidden track: I don't know what it's called.
Shitty attempt at bluegrass that doesn't fit in with the rest of the album and is actually terribly done. Bad album.

God, are you for real? I mean really, seriously. No way, you can't be
saying that stuff with a straight face, can you?
-
Today MCR made me incredibly happy.
This much is true.
Are you sure you aren't accidentally listening to My Bloody Valentine??
But I kid.
-
Tommy, I think once you try my method you'll find out how well it works and how good it makes you feel.
-
Shane, it gets easier if you imagine this guy saying it.
Oh, man. Don't get me started. I saw them live.
-
Today and yesterday MCR made me almost not depressed.
This much is true.
I need to listen to the Black Parade again.
I think i have a problem
-
God, are you for real? I mean really, seriously. No way, you can't be
saying that stuff with a straight face, can you?
You should calm down Sir.
We realised a while ago on the forum and in our real lives that music is subjective. Thus, we pretty much just try to make each other laugh through our flippancy and deliberately pithy opinions. We don't mean it, we are just having fun because our everyday lives are stressful, scary and boring. Listen to whatever you like, we can't stop you.
Ah, no, see, another trapping of the internet. I wasn't upset.
I was just curious as to how you could actually really believe that.
And it's not that you can't stop me, it's just that it would require
you to figure out where I am and spend all the money and time to
fly to where I am, torture me, break my spirit and take away all
my CDs.
Er, I hope you're not getting any ideas.

But that would mean Stone Temple Pilot's Purple is a bad album, but it isn't a bad album.
Although the hidden track IS good for a laugh and I'm pretty sure that's what they were going for.

Rammstein.
I am completely gay for Rammstein. Of course if it ever comes up in conversation, I smirk in a superior fashion and start expounding on how they are just Laibach for adolescents.
Oh, and to whoever listed "Ace of Base" - you sir, are on crack. Ace of Base is the shit, I will defend that one in any kind of gladiator-style murder-dome of your choice. :-P

It's a pretty much accepted fact that all rivetheads will openly decry Rammstein, Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie at any opportunity, but still have a ton of their CDs hidden behind their Skinny Puppy and :wumpscut:.
-
Rammstein and Rob Zombie are supposed to be stuff we're ashamed to listen to, as well?
Shit, guys. This thread is depressing. Seems like every time I see a new post in the thread, it's someone naming a band I like that they feel is bad music they have to confess to listening to. I had no idea it's not posh.
Next I'm going to be told I should be ashamed of liking The White Stripes.
-
every piece of music I own is not a regretted purchase. Well, I say every, what I mean is everything except that Lost Prophets album, Start Something
*shudder*
it had one or two decent tracks, then I got the album and it was absolute shite!
-
On a side note, I remember the day I traded in the first Third Eye Blind album and a Men In Black soundtrack CD a friend had bought me months before (which I admittedly enjoyed for awhile because I was in 8th grade), and bought a copy of Beck's Mutations, which had come out recently, with the credit and some birthday money. Walking out of the store was like waking from a long, feverish dream.

I got flack for seeing them last year at a huge venue, because its obviously my fault that I wasn't in Australia when they were playing tiny pubs to 50 people and I wasn't cool enough to like them before they were popular
-
But that would mean Stone Temple Pilot's Purple is a bad album, but it isn't a bad album.
I suggest you re-evaluate that album, sir. I believe you will find it to be bad.
-
hmm
R.E.M. - Green
secret track: Untitled (actually, i think the title was actually given in one of the Out Of Time singles) good
-
But that would mean Stone Temple Pilot's Purple is a bad album, but it isn't a bad album.

It's not a GREAT album, but it's not a bad album. "Big Empty" is one of my favorite songs ever.
-
Emilio has a firm grasp of this game. Narr, you're close, but I suggest you keep trying.
-
Mindless Self Indulgence - Tight
And I love it so there lol...
-
Well, okay, I will try again.
The Aquabats: Fury of the Aquabats. Secret track = "Theme Song!"
Awesome song, therefore good album.
Did I do it right?
-
i think the fact that i listened to The Black Parade on repeat all day yesterday and pumped my fist in the air and then posted some of the lyrics on my blog is proof that i'm way messed, and my friends were justified in giving me a comic called 'emo boy'
not the album. just that one song. over and over and over and over again
there are people who think Bruce Springsteen is shit. those people are idiots
-
Well, okay, I will try again.
The Aquabats:? Fury of the Aquabats.? Secret track = "Theme Song!"
Awesome song, therefore good album.
Did I do it right?
The secret track on that album is "Playdough!", dude. But that's an extremely awesome song, too (especially live), so no worries.
Should I be ashamed of having soft spots for Less Than Jake and MxPx from freshman year of high school? Because I am totally not.
-
Did I do it right?
Absolutely. Congratulations! Now you can play it at home, in public or during debates!
-
Hmmmm....let's see now...
Hey, it works!! Finally, a way to tell if music is shit or not.
-
I have formulated my own version of this.
I have discovered if every song on an album is bad, the album is also bad.
If every song on an album is good, the album is good.
Try it for yourselves.
Yes, but then you must listen to every song and make a value judgement on the entire album. My method is very subjective and biased. Plus seriously the bad hidden tracks are inevitably hilarious.
-
I have formulated my own version of this.
I have discovered if every song on an album is bad, the album is also bad.
If every song on an album is good, the album is good.
Try it for yourselves.
Hmm, i'm not sure about this one. Both 'End Hits' and 'Argument' are superb albums, but both have one track that is pretty shit (F/D and Full Disclosure).
-
The secret track on that album is "Playdough!", dude. But that's an extremely awesome song, too (especially live), so no worries.
Such a good song!
-
Read it back. "If every song...".
so, what is End Hits then?
-
Read more carefully. He meant that IF EVERY SONG on an album is good, it's automatically good album. If every song sucks, it's automatically a bad album.
He has made no claim to the fact that a good album must have only good songs. A good album could have a couple crap songs. But if an album has ONLY good songs it is automatically good.
-
read more carefully? i'd need to actually care for that to happen.
-
But that would mean Stone Temple Pilot's Purple is a bad album, but it isn't a bad album.
I suggest you re-evaluate that album, sir. I believe you will find it to be bad.
Says the man who listens to Coheed and Cambria.
-
Why does everything have to be in black and white with you tommy?
-
Wait, I like The Queen is Dead as an album but I don't like "Cemetry Gates." Does that mean it's crap?? No... :cry:
-
yes it does, as Cemetry Gates is the best song on the album aside from There Is A Light That Never Goes Out
-
Says the man who listens to Coheed and Cambria.
I listened to the hidden track. I merely heard the rest of the album.
-
Ooh, ooh, but I on the other hand do listen to
Coheed and Cambria! Make fun of me, make fun of me!
I'm wide open!
-
yes it does, as Cemetry Gates is the best song on the album aside from There Is A Light That Never Goes Out
Now you're speaking my language, friend.
-
one track that is pretty shit...Full Disclosure
I disagree.
-
I have formulated my own version of this.
I have discovered if every song on an album is bad, the album is also bad.
If every song on an album is good, the album is good.
Try it for yourselves.
so the flaming lips don't have a bad album as you own them all on vinyl (i am refering to the bonus track on the hit to death in the future head...i listened to that the whole way through once)
-
I disagree.
That's ok, you have the right to be wrong.
-
I disagree.
That's ok, you have the right to be wrong.
But what about the wrong to be right?

you can be wrong all you want doll.
-
so the flaming lips don't have a bad album as you own them all on vinyl (i am refering to the bonus track on the hit to death in the future head...i listened to that the whole way through once)
I'm not sure of the argument here. Are you implying that the Flaming Lips have albums which may not be good? I contest the validity of your statement.
-
you can be wrong all you want doll.
Phew, thanks, I was worried for a minute there.
-
Although some of these bands have already been mentioned, I'm going to add my little list here because I am new to the forums. (hello!)
This is pretty bad, but I listen to Panic! At the Disco. Only to work out to. But dammit, it's catchy and I like it. ....I'm so ashamed. I also had my Linkin Park phase (Crawling was like, the best song EVAAAR). I had a brief period in about tenth grade where I was completely obsessed with Something Corporate.
But my crowning achievement was the purchase of an incredibly awful album. I bought it on a friend's recommendation, and I hated it, but it was still a part of my music collection:
Good Charlotte.
The fact that I supported this band in any way keeps me up at night. I was in eighth grade, but goddammit, that's no excuse.
-
Ugh. My ex always tried forcing Good Charlotte and the Deftones on me. The latter I don't mind at all.
Kaiser Chiefs. Although I just heard a song from their upcoming album and it was goddamned terrible. They got rid of all the whoa-ohs and na-na-nas.
-
i feel like i should disown myself after coming to the realisation i own these albums
my chemical romance - three cheers for sweet revenge ('the ghost of you' video was its only redeeming quality)
the first two lost prophets albums, although i did really like the first one and occasionally give it a listen
dashboard confessional - a mark, a mission, a brand, a scar. (i think my organs are setting themselves on fire for this admital)
the most recent alkaline trio album was terrible. in my opinion, good mourning was their best by far, all of their other stuff was completely hit and miss
-
I own all the major Korn albums to date
(coulda sworn self-titled was acceptable though)
-
The Flaming Lips have not made a bad album, though The Soft Bulletin came awfully close.
I don't have any CDs I wouldn't justify as actually being good, but I do have some stuff that I would qualify by saying "I own this because it was only a dollar or two, which is how much it is worth to me". Stuff like Nina Gordon, Juliana Hatfield, EMF, Kittens, Dink, etc. Bargain bin stuff.
-
I have the first two Spice Girls albums. I am not ashamed.
-
I own two New Found Glory albums, 2 Saves the Day albums, along with other manifestations of poppunk and emo
-
The Flaming Lips have not made a perfect album, though The Soft Bulletin came awfully close
FIXED
-
we all have it. that one cd we have hidden under our mattress...the one we only bring out when NOONE is around, and it's dancing in our underwear time....
confession cleanses the souls, brothers and sisters. CONFESS, so that your mind may be free.
i'll begin.
i...i like the killers. i know. i know. i can't help it. i try not to. really, i do. but their poppy beats, and completely obvious depeche mode ripoffs are just too much for me. i listen to them, and i smile...oh god...i'm sick...
your turn
Killers aren't so bad, they're just vanilla. I don't listen to them, but I don't mind when I'm working somewhere and they come out on the radio, and I have no doubt I would have loved them if they were around before 2001.
There are a lot of bands I listened to from 1996-2001 that I'd be embarassed to admit I ever liked now, but there's one 'embarassment' person I still enjoy.
Alanis Morisette. I still occasionally listen to Jagged Little Pill. It's really not a bad album. It just got insanely overplayed and in no way deserved to sell anywhere near the numbers it did.
-
Psh, Clouds Taste Metallic and Hit to Death in the Future Head are far more close to perfection than The Soft Bulletin could ever hope to be.
-
imo: Flaming Lips post-Zaireeka > pre-Zaireeka
as for bad music I own... Umm... I have a copy of the Prodigy's Fat of the Land which I don't like. Also the red hot chilli pepper's greatest hits, which I kinda like.
-
Blink 182 has been my guilty pop pleasure for some time. I loved them in year 8, and maybe it's mostly Nostalgia, but I still quite enjoy them., Oh well. The same goes for Korn's Follow the Leader album. Also, I would say Sonata Arctica are another guilty pleasure, but not quite as guilty as those two other bands. That is all!
-
i have every album by Saves the Day. i might be a little ashamed.
-
Hanson.
And, oddly, the new Fallout Boy song has me head-bopping along. No offense to any fans, but I can't stand them but the song... its so catchy... i can't help it.
-
Oh, bad music. I'm not ashamed of anything I listen to, but I bet the majority of you people would be ashamed for me.
