I've tried to give it up, really, honestly I have, but then, every Wednesday morning, I find myself drawn to it in the local spar. It's like smoking, I know it's bad for me, but I ...just...can't...help...myself.
You're right. It'll be the death of me if I don't stop.

The NME's like music journalism crack. They sent me one free a couple of christmases ago, and despite my distaste I found myself reading it from cover to cover. I poured over what Kurt Cobain's top 50 albums had been, and I never even liked Nirvana when I was a kid. I'd been clean for years and I thought it was rubbish even when I was 14, but it'll always be there under the skin, waiting for its chance to sprout again...

Not in the slightest, and I like a lot of hugely popular bands like The Strokes et al, it's just the way it's presented in that magazine - it's like 'Oh, this band is ok, but they smoke crack and have really cool hair, s you should probably buy their album' -

I think it's because the NME is for people who like to be told what they should be listening to, and can't present a band without presenting a fad to go with it.
The Heat magazine of indie, if you will.

Yep, that pretty much sums up the NME. Also, the quality of the writing is appalling. I remember cringing at it even when I was a kid. I like very little that's popular myself, but that's just because of my personal tastes. When a band I do enjoy like The Futureheads gets huge I couldn't care less apart from the fact that it'll now cost me a lot more money to go see them.

Eh... irrational hatred.... I guess I have an irrational hatred of every peice of crap rap song I had to hear at my junior prom last year. Who did that "Tipsy" song? I'd so love to strangle him. I guess that's it. I'm pretty eclectic with my taste in music, hell, I'll even listen to Christina Agulara in small doses.

Imagine how I felt stuck in an uncomfortable dress listening to that crap for hours. I wanted to rip the DJs throat out and feed it to him, then take over for him (although I probably would have got heckled for playing the Time Warp XD)

What's sad is I used to like both Limp Bzkit and Jimmy Eat World (I had horrible taste in music when I was in middle school x_x)

And DMX is possibly one of the most annoying rappers to ever get played on MTV... wait no, I think that Lil Jon guy beat him... but I don't know, I stopped watching MTV when they stopped playing Daria (yes, I watched Daria when I was younger, I have an awesome aunt and we'd sit down and watch it together ^_^).

heh, daria was actually a pretty great show. I also liked sifl and olly, the andy dick show, and the maxx when it was on... not to mention the my so called life reruns. you never see that anymore though. I think thats what pisses me off about mtv the most; that they have the potential to show quality yet they choose to play crap all the time.

lol.

Living in the world of the metal undergound, as it were, My estimation of a bands hugeness is so much less than most other peoples. For example, how many of you here have heard of Marduk, Carpathian Forest or Immortal? I would have said all those were massive, I mean, hell Nattefrost of CF can even make a living off his music alone! But of course, this is no note of what a tiny, tiny, miniscule drop in the ocean a lot of what I listen to makes: Even the hugest of the huge modern metal bands like Nightwish and Children of Bodom are only recognised half the time by people who are actually into the music or the subculture in some way. The other things I listen to can often be even more obscure.

What it really means is though, simply through my own tastes, I don't really have to worry about my favourite bands 'getting huge'. I doubt I'm ever going to wake up one morning to see Forefather or Korpiklaani plastered over the front of NME or Kerrang!, unless I've died and gone to metal heaven.

Hmm what about Maroon 5, is that irrational?  I don't know, when I first heard that one song I thought it was catchy I must admit, maybe it was too boring of a day when I did, but was wary about it then suddenly after I have this intense hate of them and whenever I see the name I walk the other way...

Hehe...my mate tried to get me into Nightwish a couple of years ago by telling me that they sounded 'a bit like garbage'. Needless to say, he was terribly wrong, and also, not my bag, but hey. He tried.
I also have a really good friend who keeps trying to get me into Children of Bodom and Meshuggah as payback for him coming to the indie nights I do and having to put up with loads of terrible indie shite, but that hasn't worked either...

Nigthwish are an average band anway. And there's no way your Indie brain is gonna understand Meshuggah when it's harded wired to think that complex is bad.

Sorry, lack of 4/4 makes it sort of hard to be dull.*  EDIT...didnt actually look at who posted that reply. But I dont think there's anything dull about it. Even "I" isn't dull, just messed up. The new album might be through, from all reviews.

I'm rather chuffed that the simple fact it was me merited an edit :)

Meshuggah do try hard and it's always nice to see a little effort being put in, but for some reason they just wash over me and produce a big 'meh' effect.

You're from Rhode Island, do you also have a hatred of the Met Cafe being closed and Lupos moving to the fucking Strand?  I have such fond memories of the Met.  At least the Living Room is still around, but lets be honest, that place is a dump.  The Green Room is really good too, haven't been there in a while.  I'll end this goofy little rant about RI venues.

in all honesty, i don't frequent the providence venues. i was at the living room and the grow room on okie street a few months ago, but the people were obnoxious, and really reminded my why i don't bother with the shows.

and yeah, the lupo's move was pretty lame.
