Unpopular Music Opinions

Oh for sure, I love Minor Threat and Fugazi as well, but I'm just saying that I feel like the ideology itself, at least to me, is sort of a reactionary, counter-productive thing. Also I will stick by my metal statement, all my frienRAB in high school were metal-heaRAB and I listened to a lot of metal as a result and am not impressed in the slightest. I always found it strange I was there friend since I was so much more a fan of punk.
 
The Beatles are lame: simple watered down tunes, fruity pop vocals, flat layerless sound, etc.

What's your argument? Oh wait that's right, you don't have one!



The fact that people are disagreeing with me doesn't prove jack shit.



*That's what

If you can't tell the difference between talent and mindless marketed crap then may god have mercy on your soul. You're a tool. Defending your taste in music is one thing, insulting real musicians by calling korn progressive is another. learn what the word means. Oh wow so they toss is safe metal with hip hop early on and then decide (as you said) to go towarRAB more techno. That doesn't mean progression! At all.
 
that's unfortunate. searching... is still a great track too, one of my favorite SG tunes to play back in the day. slaves and bulldozers is another great one. the coda on 'somewhere' is phenomenal as well.

actually, come to think of it. badmotorfinger is an effing GREAT album start to finish.
 
I hate remixes

There's nothing more depressing than seeing a song you love with the worRAB (DJ Moron mix) after them.

There is nothing artistic about sticking some generic beat over something, using a fuckload of electronic effects over it and then crowbarring in some of the original song almost as an afterthought. To this day I can't think of a single song that's been improved by a remix.
I don't mind radio edits, I don't mind stuff being sampled to make totally different songs.
I just hate remixes.

Oh yes and while on the subject,

99.9% of mash-ups are rubbish.
 
industrial electronic music like coil is pretty cool.

the only industrial genre i don't like is industrial rock. it's like a constant tug of war between techno synths and heavy guitar lines.
 
Haha we can trade off lyrics until we've exhausted both albums, that still doesn't make you right. Adore had phenomenal songwriting, but there was a reason it didn't sell. It didn't sound like Smashing Pumpkins. It sounded like exactly what it was: Billy Corgan. Jimmy was gone and they had hit a well known low point as a band. Darcy and James barely showed up and according to Billy the only time they had meshed as a band during the whole session was for "Shame".

Machina II, on the other hand, sounded like everything the Pumpkins should have been at the time. They could rock while maintaining that musician's edge. If I had to point to one single sound that I could have hoped they would have held on to for a couple albums, it would be Machina II. Adore definitely proved Billy has incredible songwriting talent, but Machina II showed he could do it within the context he put forth as a band.
