Ed Wood Caulfield 0 Report post Posted August 28, 2003 Radio and MTV dictate what music is popular. It's not a matter of what music is actually good; it's how much money music execs are willing to shell out to the media to ensure that their acts get the most exposure. That's why you have a glut of bands/singers/sideshow freaks with similar sounds and grooves clogging the airwaves, and why bands with truly unique stylings or actual talent get pushed to the fringes. Be happy the stuff you like doesn't get much play... that usually leads to overplay. Well, that sure does explain why all these "Dirty South" rappers sound exactly the same. And why I can't tell R&B songs apart anymore especially R.Kelly's, whose songs all sound like the "Fiesta (Remix)". And why I can't tell these pop-punk bands apart. It also explains how a no-talent hack like 50 Suck can be so damn popular. He is backed by Eminem afterall. Eminem has his own record label. Em's rich. There's the explanation. And I just would like some of my favorite artists like Public Enemy or Talib Kweli get some more airplay on MTV because MTV needs all the talent they can get. None of the kids in my school had no idea who P.E. or Talib Kweli were and that saddened me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted August 28, 2003 Creed no longer getting much, if any, airplay Because...They don't have a single...but My Own Prison and One still get mad playtime...at least around here. They are cutting their 4th studio album currently and it has been said Stapp is very open about his addiction and his rehab stints...and that it stripped away from the ballads and are back with a more Tremonti dominated album...Which is good...Tremonti makes the better songs anyways...but leaving the ballads? It's their fail proof plan "Put in a bunch of Ballads but sing loud and bombastic" So looks like Stapp continues to follow the road of his Idol after all...

Guest Random Hero Report post Posted August 30, 2003 Liking: ALBUMS: October Rust / Type O Negative ('Love you to death' is haunting) King For A Day- Fool For a Lifetime / Faith No More (Their best album IMO) Album Of The Year / Faith No More Powerslave / Iron Maiden 1919 Eternal / Black Label Society Sing The Sorrow / AFI (I've yet to hear a song from them I don't like) The Darkness' first 3 singles Elton Johns 'Are You Ready For Love' Superman / Black Lace Disliking: The White Stripes (vastly overrated) Radiohead (prententious wank) Missy Elliot (DIE DIE DIE DIE) Anyone who says 'gots to have.....' on MTV cribs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye 0 Report post Posted August 30, 2003 Liking: Opeth - Deliverence/Damnation (powerfull Metal on one, Powerful grace on the other. Both sides of Opeth, both amazing.) Zyklon - Aeon(So far the metal album of the year. massive death mixed with sweeping black metal, includes the melancholy monster Black Metal never wrote) Aura Noir - Black Thrash Attack(Like the name implies, the perfection of black/thrash) Soilwork - Figure Number 5(Nu Metal without the baggy pants, dreads, whining. Covered in competant playing and hooks to keep you interested) Pantera - Power Metal(equal parts LA glam and Bay area Speed. Awesome party record.) Dislikes: Nickelback and any of the clones spawned from their sickly presence. Pretentious bitches who make me ashamed I live so close to their hometown. Ashanti. She brings nothing new to the table, she is not hot, hanging out with Ja Rule makes you a joke. Pantera for breaking up. I'm sure there are more in there, but that's what I got right now.

CanadianChick 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2003 LIKES: Sloan (Good band. "Other Man" is probably one of their best songs.) Red Hot Chilli Peppers (I've always liked them, but have been liking them more lately) Matchbox 20 Rob Zombie (Haven't really liked him in the past, but I'm likin' him right now) Fozzy (~! You're damn right I like them!) "Where is the Love" by Black Eye Peas (probably the only recent hip hop song I really like) Simple Plan (I like them) Christina Agularia (I don't know why, but I've liked practically all of her songs since she's started. They're all catchy) There's probably more, but I can't think of them at the moment. Geez, what an array of music though. HATES: "Boys and Girls" by Good Charlotte. WORST SONG EVER! Sean Paul, Sean Desman and all that type of music. I hate that so much. The music sucks, period. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EricMM 0 Report post Posted September 1, 2003 I'd like to add all so called "Dance Hall" Sean Paul crap. It's no good. It's funny. If someone mumbles when they're singing, they're fine. When they're speaking in another language, they're fine. But when their accent is so damn BAD, it's just ANNOYING!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
