[quote="jelle"]BEST TOPIC EVER KOPS
oh btw people who say they hate heavy metal please metal isn't all about screaming(metallica,iron maiden,black sabbath MANY BANDS) only all the death-black-core and subgenres of these use screaming and really loud guitar and nu metal and thrash metal do sometimes
.
as for me i CAN'T STAND POP and all popular music.
I mean really in these days all music seems to be about is being catchy and it has to be trendy and the artists has to be either hot or cute or very weird music that is written with real passion and with talent just isn't popular these days any more.
all the popular music is the same beat in every song or IF there is guitar just 3 chords OVER AND OVER AGAIN on EVERY SONG.
no creativity no passion for the music it's all about the money and getting radio plays. Ugh and then a lot of artist are so talentless they have to use computers and autotune to make their songs sound good(to them) and just to let you guys know A LOT OF THESE PEOPLE DON'T WRITE THEIR OWN MUSIC yer they don't so how can there be soul and passion in it when they have not written it themselves?.
and no i'm not saying only metal has passion look at things like blues good jazz hell even some country they put hearth into their music and you can hear it and that makes real music the music that moves you that will make you feel something not some random weird noise over a computerized bass and a weird voice which is autotuned talking about having sex drinking partying cars girls hookers
other gernes is can't stand are all dubstep dj music and techo type of music i mean come on someone can explain me what is beautiful or nice about this music yes nothing beats and random weird noises over it.
hope i haven't pissed anoyone off with this rant feel free to argue[/quote]
Did you just steal my brain?
I agree with a lot of what you have said here,
jelle I'm also one of those who mostly listen to musicals that were written before this century, like
Les Miserables, Godspell, Phantom of the Opera, Jesus Christ Superstar and
The Lion King. I don't really like any of the musicals that were written since the start of this millennium, as a lot have started to use a lot of pop or modern music that is in vogue today.
I literally don't like any bands (so am just as in the dark about popular bands as my great-great-great grandparents :p), but metal bands are definitely my least favourite. And I also dislike most of the genres today as a lot of the lyrics are always indecipherable and have to always do a Google search to even follow the lyrics. And is it just me or is the vast majority of songs in most genres (especially pop) about love (usually unrequited, breaking up, or very romantic? The only exception so far to this in the pop genre concerning love is "Love Will Find A Way" on the "Simba's Pride" soundtrack sung by Heather Headley (original adult Nala on the Original Broadway Cast). That woman can make ANYTHING sound good, in my opinion.
