That's good to hear, I was wincing at the thought for a day an three hours. Dont know if I'll buy it or not, but I should.

DTS decoder needed for some Roger Eno tracks is getting me miffled.

The Gremlins theme. That was a good one. I recently burnt a CD full of my favorite TV and movie themes, Gremlins included. Espacially the Quantum Leap theme. And the Doctor Who theme. And the Magnum, P.I theme.

you like quantum leap a lot don't you? lol

You're just noticing this? :p

I recently got myself very into BT. I bought the album This Binary Universe, and I must say, it's quite good. I always thought that his music would probably be more dance-ish, but it turned out to be completely different. It's very mellow and has a reaxing sound about it. I'm definitely going to buy some more of his albums whenever I get a chance.

I always liked the Magnum theme from 1980: http://www.filefactory.com/dlf/f/2ed...a/j/1172926574

Oh my lord, Christina Aguleria, we ****ing get it, you like the '50s. Christ.

Well, it's better than all this R&B-hip-hop-rap crap.

I'm not quite sure who you're talking to, but if you're talking to me, Magnum is from 1980. But yes, I also like the 50s. I'm sorry if I'm an annoyance, I just can't get interested in other music. I'm stuck to TV themes.

I find it really weird that out of all of the thousands of bands out there, that you only like theme music!!!!!

Why? Everyone has their own genre of music that they enjoy listening to. Just because someone has a different taste in music doesn't make them weird.

Unless it's rap...

I guess I don't consider it real music. It's made to be in the background of something and is not music on it's own. That's what I think at least. And not all rap is bad. The oldschool rap is sometimes cool, but anything now on mtv is shit.

It was a general statement Oddjobmaid.

She weaves it into her obvious, obvious obsession.

And Atmosphere is good rap you closeminded people.

Vocalists have a warped sense of music... The two vocalists from my band, the female considers songs without distortion and drumkits a novelty, and the male thinks a song isn't a song without a singer. Jeebus. They're good chaps, but dayum.

I'm sorry, I misunderstood.

I think she's more into the whole 1920's style than the 50's. I haven't seen her in poodle skirts yet. Of course, I could really give a shit less.

I know what you mean, about it not being real music. It's just that guitars and singers just don't 'do it' for me. I know it doesn't just contain guitars, I was just giving an example. I man, the other day was great. I was playing the TV themes CD I burnt full blast while pissed out of my skull. It was a special occasion, that's why I was drunk. It was the day that I got 'My Amazing Human Body' working on my XP. I know, it's for ages 6-10, but you know me, I'm a sad old git. Luckily, the neighbours weren't in, so I didn't disturb them with my theme music.

As for rap, I hate all of it. I know all of it isn't bad, but I just see all of it as a pile of shite. But as I always say, each to their own. And as I've always said after watching Only Fools and Horses - this time next year, I'll be a millionaire.

**** you.

WOOOOOT! Slug is Godsus Chreezy.

Well, that's a healthy point of view.

How does disliking a certain genre of music make you closeminded? It's not as if I've never listened to that genre before having an opinion about it.

That was meant to be a joke. Personally, I despise rap, but I could care less if other people like it.

Shout out to Jedi Mind Tricks, good rap band.
The whole Army of Pharoahs crew is pretty damn good, come to think of it.

Black Eyed Peas used to be this amazing underground rap group until Stacy Mickey Mouse Club Ferguson ruined them. Forever. The Pharcyde is pretty great as is Jurassic 5.

I love Jurassic 5. Heiroglyphics. They are good, too. That's the only rap I will listen to.

Shut your poobum lol.

Considering it you deny all of rap being any good is what makes you close minded my good sir.

I have to admit... I've found an NZ band I like. Omfg scary. Probably just because I saw them live in a parking lot. The Mint Chicks, gonna have a USA tour sometime soon.

EDIT: oh, and Trinity Roots.

Wrong. It merely means that it's not my kind of music. I've listened to various rap artists back when I found it tolerable, and none of them appealed to me. It's not closed-mindedness. It only means that the genre doesn't fit my tastes.

One day you'll, possibley in your mid thirties. Hebephrenia in it's purest form rite thurr.

Quite a hilarious Muse pisstake. It's like your first jam all over again.

Condemnation of the entire genre based on what you've heard makes you close-minded.

Fair enough, but the phrase is couldn't care less. Sorry, it angers me when people get that wrong.

Woot for JMT! Give it up for murder rap. Although Atmosphere's my fave. Some other goodies:

Illogic (Mindblowing)
Immortal Technique (Political)
Edan (Kinda quirky. Jewish rappers FTW!)
Beastie Boys (OLD SCHOOL)
Cage (Just ****in' good)

what about MUSE lol im likeing muse , dj tomcraft and moby o ya! and dont forget daft punk and rob zombie!

Not at all. Whether I like it or not, I am constantly subjected to listening to rap music eminating from random people's headphones at my school. And I resent it.

And be realistic. I can't go through every single rap group, judging whether I like them or not, in order to be justified in condemning the entire genre. I don't like it. It's as simple as that. Disliking the genre does not make me close-minded. Just like you disliking a different genre of music isn't close-mindedness. It's your preference.

Wrong. It can be used two ways.

I could say that I couldn't care less. Meaning that, my caring about the topic at hand is at the very bottom, and cannot go any lower.

I could also say that I could care less. Meaning that there is possibly a level of caring lower than the one I'm at.

Regardless of what you think, condemning any genre of music seems worthless and closed-minded to me. Every genre has some good stuff, without a doubt. If you said "I haven't heard any rap I like," that wouldn't be a problem. Actually, in all honesty, I don't care whether or not you like rap music. This is pretty much just an argument of semantics.


Now you're just being competitive. Saying you could care less makes no sense in the context you were using it in.


And for the record, I'd like to withdraw my praise of Edan from my previous post. I just liked his one song Primitive Plus a lot. The rest = meh.

I disagree. It's true that every genre of music is considered "good" to someone, but not every genre has something to offer for everyone.

I wasn't being competative. You were getting technical, so I corrected you. Saying that I could care less about other people's preferences is indeed used in the proper context.

All conversation of music is moot and useless if you don't use every opportunity to proclaim Modest Mouse as the greatest band of the last decade. So please all commence with this so the conversation will have meaning.

They rank, but everything I say I'm afraid will furthermore be useless.

Wrong. You were being competetive.




(just had to do your shtick)

Has the new Modest Mouse sunk in yet OANST? I've hardly given it a chance.
