Wu-Tang Clan's good, and I usually enjoy Eminem (though mainly because of the production quality), old Dr. Dre, and 2Pac. I rather like good freestyling, particularly if it's done well over drum 'n bass.
Ever tried Ratatat? It's pretty much hip-hop without vocals, and it's ace.
Freestyling is amazing mate ~:cheers:
No I havn't tried Ratatat but thanks I'll have to try it sometime.
Ah, I still have fond memories of Daphne and Celeste being booked to "play" Reading about five years ago.Quote:
It's always priceless when these plastic package groups get bottled off the stage at festivals, especially when the bottles are full of yellow water. 50 cent springs to mind...
.
You have NEVER seen such bottling. Truly impressive. I don't know if the Persian arrows at Thermopylae really did block out the sun but I am quite sure our bottles did. They got through two songs and legged it. It took them the rest of the time they were supposed to have been "singing" to clear the bottles off the stage.
The Good Charlottes last year, or maybe it was the year before, was also impressive, although they did manage to finish their set, hats off to them. Unlike D and C I wasn't quite sure what they had done to earn the crowds rage, (other than be a bit rubbish,) not that that stopped me joining in, obviously.
Ha Ha, reminds me of how Linkin Park were savaged at a Metallica concert I was at a few years ago. They even pleaded with the massive crowd to just let them finnish their set and that they couldnt wait to see Metallica either, to which they were met with the predictable rain of bottles. The drummer made a fatal mistake of getting angry when he got hit in the head, he threw the bottle back into the crowd, as in aggressively, and got absolutely pelted! ~D
It was so funny, it nearly made their set bearable... Nearly.
Any Dutch around here know De Jeugd Van Tegenwoordig? Watskeburt? I saw them when visiting friends, they were awful. They got bottled off too, loads of fun.
Ah, same thing happened at Leeds. It was sick and wrong, but necessary. Festival crowds know what we like and we speak with our bottles.Quote:

Its just very direct feedback! ~D
Mostly Extreme Metal - Black, Death, Industrial and Folk. A few other not-so-extreme bands. Also, lately I've been getting into grindier and grindier albums. There's too much death metal to list, but I listen to a lot of Cryptopsy, Nile, Nunslaughter and the like. As far as black metal goes, my favourite act is Immortal, but I also like 1349 and early Satyricon, Gorgoroth and Enslaved, to name a few. My favourite Industrial Metal band is Tidfall, without question. As for Folk Metal, I'm really into Skyforger, Waylander, Belinus and Korpiklaani. Finntroll's first two albums are also great.
Beyond metal, I listen to this and that, but there's a pretty good chunk of techno in there. I just got a Fischerspooner album, and before that, Neophyte. Kraftwerk also kicks ass.
Plain folk is good too, as well as folk crossovers. The Pogues, anyone?
Not including guitar blues (there's too many blues artists to list):
Pink Floyd, The Doors, Jefferson Airplane, Jimi Hendrix, Iron Butterfly, Santana,...
I think you get the point.
(Damn- can't find a smilie with a bong.)
Oddly enough, I also enjoy Wagner and Gorillaz... not sure why.
Bit of Country & Western too. I'm getting into practise for when I move to Texas and become a hick. It's gonna be sweet.
One day...
Beatles
Cloroform
Cockroach Clan
El Caco
Metallica
Motorpsycho
That's just a mutant's handful that popped into my mind at the moment.
I don`t listen much to music, but what I listen to:
Nightwish, Linkin Park and Evanescence, anything else just random. Mostly hardrock and metal. Not old music though, wich in my opinion suck.
Evanescence.....you make me sick :no: :shame: (Joke)Quote:

Allow me to point out that I don`t listen to Evanscence or Linkin Park anymore, not much music at all really. If it just were a music shop here I might actually had have bought some.Quote:

Well currently the bands that I listen to the most are The Verve, Radiohead and Keane. ~:)
I'm gonna cry with joy! Someone else listens to the melvins! Joyous day joyous day.
But I have to add one more band here Faith No More, they rock, period.
I'm tellin anyone who thinks modern music sucks to check out Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers there is hope left for music, these guys rock hard especially live. Every show they play like they got something to prove and their music is good old fashioned loud bar room rock.Quote:
Modern music is rubbish.
...
I wish someone would strangle these 17 year old bleached blonde pretty boys who pretend to know how to play instruments or be rock n roll.
OMG to think that someone in my own clan thinks old music sucks is horrid lol, old music is by far the best todays music is a joke most artists have to sing a song they didnt write, its a joke they cant make there own songs and the ones they do make are aboultley s*** :furious3:Quote:

Have you ever tried to write a song? Not a crap rhyme, but a song that could get somewhere in the charts? It's pretty difficult.
Yeah I really hate them , and their song...Quote:

Most Rock and some Metal. Most music I can handle but the really light pop boyband junk and rap.
The Dead, Beatles, Stones, the Band, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, the Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Neil Young, CSN, Bob Marley, Widespread Panic, Drive by Truckers, Gov't Mule, and a whole bunch more. I really only like old stuff, and some jammy Southern bands from today.
