He made you miss Prefuse 73? Kill him. Then kill him again.
That being said, Surrounded by silence was a bit disapointing. Nowhere near as good as Vocal studies + uprock narratives.

Quote from: Spencer
"Crazy in Love" by Beyonce is probably one of the best examples of the past few years I can think of in regards to this ("Toxic" also immediatly springs to mind).


I have to admit that I actually like those singles along with the Justin Timberlake one.

Yep, those songs were just damn good pop music. And there's nothing at all wrong with that.

Corrected ^_^

Toxic would have been an awesome song if it had been done by KISS or Poison though.

Khar, try giving in to your inner pop demon!
Everyone has one, it's just that yours may be buried under a little more...metal than most :)

No matter how buried it'll keep bubbling away inside him, and one day we'll come on here and find that he's gotten really really drunk and scrawled "I <3 Justin" and "Sean Paul is raw sex" in every single thread.

Last time I got drunk (which was last night) I remember stumbling from the bus station to home in a sort of zig-zag pattern trying to sing 'Supersatan' by Cryptic Wintermoon

The part where I wrapped myself tightly around a lamp-post for balance then rasped "HEY LITTLE MOTHERFUCKER, I WILL MAKE YOU A FOOL!" at it before kissing it and throwing a metal salute and screaming "I AM THE SUPERSATAN" at some chavs who were just looking at me like their brains had melted has some comedic value methinks.

One day, it'll be 'Sound of the Underground' coming from your lips as you touch them lightly to street furniture. You're just in denial ;)

I like Sound of the Underground.

Well, I like Overlord's cover of it.

The extreme sludge metal one.

Their singer sounds like an Orc vomiting through his nostrils.

But you surely can't deny the awesomeness of the original?

The flyers for the club I'm djing at have a picture of Nicola Roberts on the front accompanied by the words "Because Muse do not 'rock'." Fuck yeah.

The original version does not include the dreaded soviet drum horror of Mike the Elephant Man, or make use of Overlord's patent 'Drop the tuning till the strings fall off' guitar sound. So no, not really.

Seriously, tortured grindy screams, low recording quality, and a whole metric tonnage of feedback, and it's awesome. The original is just annoying. Pop music makes me far more moody and angry than any amount of extreme metal ever could.

good pop music is good pop music, its not clever and its not big. its just fonky-ass tunes which infiltrate your brain.

I also think it's worth mentioning that I was never regularly exposed to pop music until about nine-ten months ago when I was forced to face the horrors of the sixth form common room stereo. Pop music (modern pop music anyway: My views on the sixties are entirely different) has never really appealed to me, and I have made no effort to check it out. All the radios in my house are tuned to either Radio 4 or Radio 7 and waste very little time transferring between, except for maybe the odd dabble on Classic FM or Radio 3. It distresses me enormously that people listen to things like Power FM.

Ugh.
If it had been done by either of them I think would have stabbed my ears out with a ice-pick.

No offense to your tastes, but I have a particular hatred for Pop Metal.

They're arena rock, not pop metal.

Pop metal has been definitively proven either not to exist by being an oxymoron, or to be Sonata Arctica. Take your pick.

There is some good pop music around these days. Toxic has one of the best basslines ever, Justin Timberlake is great as is some Girls Aloud. Of course, there are huge numbers of awful pop songs around to make up for it.
