So do any metal dudes here listen to Pelican?

Don't you wish they broke up after Boces?

From Kraftwerk's golden era, Computer World has aged the least well. I still like it, but I recognize that it's mostly chintzy; seriously, "Pocket Calculator," as fun as it is, is very much an artifact of its time. (Also, "Numbers" was an obv. influence on DJ Shadow's "The Number Song." C'mon.) Their other stuff has fared better over the years, though. Sure, the sounds you hear on Trans Europe Express or The Man Machine may've not been produced by a laptop, but Ralf and Florian's songwriting was top notch. The alone is enough to make up for the primitive instrumentation.

Linkin Park. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Nu metal crossed my mind, but hasn't its time passed? I honestly have little clue what's "hip" with 16-year-olds these days, a fact in which I take great comfort, really.

I'm sure the Floyd/Zep faction exists in high schools still, but I don't know about Green Day/Rancid. I think it was only so prevelant at my school due to the mid-90s ushering punk's mainstream success. I've no clue what's since supplanted it.

When I was a teenager, I think every guy I knew either liked Green Day and Rancid, or Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin. The only in-between was rap.

As long as there are 15-year-old boys getting into music, there will be new people getting into Pink Floyd.

A) People who go to Hot Topic and buy shirts with slogans like "Can't sleep, clowns will eat me." B) IDRM, but then he only does so ironically.

I support consensual rape.

This came close to making me laugh. Of the shirts posted, the only that made me giggle was the Native American one.

Crocodiles is awesome. "Do It Clean," "Stars are Stars," the title track, "Rescue," "Happy Death Men"...man, I love it.

Why doesn't he just quit now? Does he have to prepare himself to quit? Whatta fucking douchewhistle.

By the way, Czech, though it was not my intent, this thread is doing you a very big favor. I expect a thankful pm post haste!

Man, some of you are desperate to incite backlash against me. Tell me what's wrong with calling out another person on his bullshit. Some of you think your posting in this thread is doing the same to me, but I guess I'm different somehow.

<3 Sorry about the lack of more Sneetches, sugar. gmail has been uncooperative, lately, plus I was out of town for the last few days. I'll try to send you more this weekend.

Oh, hush. I don't even dislike The Czech Republic, though I know he harbors resentment towards me. (I saw his comment in the thread after I was banned from j*wing.) As such, I like chiding him. Anyway, my earlier comment was w/r/t "apathy" towards this thread, which—the apathy—is clearly inaccurate.

For people who claim to not like me, you sure know how to post in this thread. Good job, lads!

Thanks to Nevermortal, I can never use that term again.

Any specifics on why this is so? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Meandering, avant-drivel. Outside of "S.P.Q.R." and some of "Paper Hats," it's unbearably dull.

Do you people read other threads? I saw two where Czech had to point out he was "almost" ready to quit. I don't get the logic behind that; you either quit or you don't.
