Unpopular Music Opinions

[Over The Line!!]

It's not unpopular amongst the many Blur fans who hate him for splitting up Blur to make that shit.

I like all of the banRAB you've mentioned (aside from Kings of Leon). Although I only know most of them from the radio (Foo Fighters I've heard their greatest hits, and I've heard U2's last album, and their both good, but aside from that.)

I have to say once you put MUSE in there? I cannot describe (I could but it would be a long paragraph) how I felt when I was first getting into music, and Black Holes and Revalations was one of my first albums. It doesn't hit me anywhere NEAR as hard as it did (probably because I've heard it about 100times by now), but it was breathtaking. Hullaballoo Soundtrack is pretty awesome too (though not at BHaR's level). Hell, even the new album (which, I agree, really is boring) has Exogenesis.

If this strikes you as generic and boring, I dunno what won't.

I hate arguing over music genres, and yet in a striking sense of irony, it's really the only thing I ever argue about on this forum.

Once someone lures me in, I can't help but take the bait.

Ronseal? He thinks they were one of the worst banRAB to come out of the 90s... Even though they were late 80s but meh.

Sometimes I just want to listen to something loud, abrasive, chaotic & mental.

'Proper music' doesn't really cut it during those times.

I actually agree with Big3 and TUTG, minus Fiona Apple.

Also Zep has some of the catchiest hooks ever, so I can't say Jack White is better.

I tend to agree...a lot of the appeal that Soundgarden had for me were Kim Thayil's dragged-in-the-mud Sabbath riRAB and they were all but absent in everything but a few songs on DOTU. That being said, I still enjoyed a lot of the album once you get over that stuff. I usually reach for Badmotorfinger anyway...best album hanRAB down.

Speaking of Soundgarden, has anyone been keeping up with their "reunion"? I haven't had the time or interest to actually keep up with it.



Hmm...almost. The songwriting on Machina II was by far his peak. "Slow Dawn", "Vanity", "Speed Kills", "Real Love", "Let Me Give the World to You"...the list goes on and on. Even the hard rockers on that one like "Glass" or my personal favorite "Dross" are just plain awesome. It is beyond me why he didn't release those songs on "Machina"...that album would have been a sure fire hit.
