Learn to spell Jimi Hendrix before you invoke His name.

*thunk* justifiably stabbityied by an enraged, rock-loving Tonberry. Never saw my life ending like this...I regret nothing! ;D

Actually, his name was James Marshall Hendrix...


...if you want to get all technical like.

I loath rap. And country. And pop.

And Leon Redbone.

"Savage Garden". >:(

Listening to that 'band' causes the male generative organ to shrivel up and drop off in 100% of cases. We should just nuke Australia for inflicting them on the world.

Jimmy Hendrix is dead, but the guys in Savage Garden still live; where is your god now?! :'(

I'd rather listen to Savage Garden than half the "music" produced today, but that's more of a lesser of two evils sort of thing. besides, they're more of a late 80's pop band than a strange 90's alternative rock band.

There is only one kind of music that's crap, anything created in the 20th century or later

Sounds like someone was born about 100 yrs too late. :P Then again that may always be true regardless, if you're making statements like that.

I think you can safely assume that there has been some utter tripe produced in the ninteenth century and earlier, however, crap music lacks the staying power of its better contemporaries. Good music stands the test of time, therefore it seems like in the past the music was better, when in fact there was just as much crap as today, it just got filtered out of history. That's my opinion anyhow.

It applies on a shorter time scale as well. people still go to Motorhead concerts 30 years on... not as a nostalgia thing, they never stopped producing records, people never STOPPED listening to them and they Ain't gunna stop until Lemmy dies a bloody, liver exploding death.

Whereas apart from 70s Cheese pop, not much of the rubbish is left from the 70s to tourment good people on a daily basis.

oh yeah.. and 50 cent should be shot yet again

I'm born in the year 1328 our lord, and I know bad music existed before that, but it was not the crap like the music of this age.

This is amazing. No one has mentioned Crazy Frog

Its probably largely due to the fact that you're exposed to an awful lot more music these days than you were back then. Hence, there's more crap. As to whether or not its actually a larger percentage, I don't think anyone can say.

But anyway, its pretty easy for me to say that all my favourite artists have existed in the last 100 years. :P To borrow a line from the great Lou Reed - here's to everyone who's life was saved by rock and roll!

Darn, someone beat me to rap.

The only other thing I can think of is "toxic" by Britney Spears. That is the most vile song ever concieved of, especially with the awful screeching of a thousand dead souls or whatever that sound is.

Also, Eminem should be prosecuted for causing a bunch of idiot fourth graders to begin screaming "Just lose it AAUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

yup, I hate that song.


Oh yes, Insane Clown Posse. I've never heard their music, but I hate them unconditionally due to their name.

[Chris the Pontifex]

hmm

panic! at the disco... theyre on the radio now. I dont really like them though its still a whole lot better then Tokyo Hotel. (someone is going to shoot me for that)

anyway, I do like some rap music, sometimes. Electro and Techno I can enjoy as well as rock or "emo" (whatever that is) or pop. It really just depends on the setting, the loudness and how hard I need to concentrate on something.

The louder spiecies of metal, techno, and industrial seem to aggrevate me, they really get on my nerves.

about "emo": (I thought it was a bird)
would any "emotional" music be considered emo? ie. is Radiohead emo? is Portishead? and if so wouldnt that be a little too broad for any gerne, almost like "Urban" or "Dance"

IIRC crazy frog is created in the 21st century and that's well into my category of crap.
