    The artistic factor doesn't seem to matter anymore... Only the money music can bring... Unless you're actually an underground band and stick to what you know then become discovered and go on making the same music you used to. I'm thinking of Nelly Furtado... Her excuse is: "Well I wanted to be versatile and switch music genres." Sad excuse for em...I just wanted to make more money. PATHETIC AND COWARDICE.

    There is good music out there... You just have to know where to look... :) Most music now is controlled by the record companies, though...

Get some glasses, music is everywhere...just look for the kind you like(not on tv obviously..)

    I get music from a page www.zonarave.com but it's in spanish and they just talk about 2 types of music. Electronic and Reggae I also find gd stuff from a real tiny rasta store("selassie house") near some big shopping center, it's quite "underground" and just some ppl know about the store. I also find good philosophy there with some friends. Near that store, there's a Skater Shop("Relax"), they are linked by the power of Sativa! (They share weed), so we know each other and share music and words instead to be away from them just for be a different way of life (punks) Friends, u share music with them, u change cd's and talk about where to go to download music from Internet. Bearshare, Kazaa, Ares, Torrents , etc. U download music from those downloaders And if u have some foreigners friends, ask from their music, i got a friend from Ecuador and we shared music 2 days ago, DAMN they have some good ska over there..!!

    The stuff in the charts is mostly crap granted, but there are still alot of creative artists out there.

I watched VH1 with it's top 20 count down one night and didn't like one song. Usually there's a couple that I like, but now a days songs are suckin.

But like some said thier is good music out thier, just got t know were u look. Im not into any one genere or artist just like maybe 1/2 songs from each artist really. Frank Sinatra still rocks 8) as does WOOOOO OWO WHAT A FEELING, WEN WERE DANCING ON THE CELLING!! by the legend himself......

    Well I know there's underground stuff and that's what I listen to. Although, I find that we're overrating the wrong bands and underrating the ones who deserve the praise...

    There's a band i used to listen to, saw em first opening for Queensryche on the Empire tour, Maple leaf gardens in Toronto. they were called Warrior Soul. Good Heavy metal/punk band, did 6 albums, but they never really caught on. Cory, the lead singer said it best in an interview, that he only wanted to make 50-75 thousand a year doing his music, you know, make a good living, but you either had to be a poor struggling band, broke and poor, or a massive success, and rich, there was no inbetween in the rock world. Also, to make a living and get known, you definitely couldn't be original or different. It's not often a ground breaking band comes along and changes things.

    Yahoo radio is great for finding new music. The basic service is free, but the monthly fee service is worth it. It's different than other internet radio because you choose what to listen to. It's basically freeform radio the way it should be.

    I was just wondering somthing... why do bands have such stupid or really long names now? My frined gave me a flyer to come to a show. I didn't go because the names of the bands where so retarded. Most of them I've already heard from CD's they've made of themselves too. Now everybody trys to make a phrase outta their name or put way to many word in it. There's a newer band called "Cute is what We Aim For" I can give them so much respect.... :roll:
  20. T.RexSalvaged from archive14 Oct 2006, 23:51
    Judging a band by its name is incredibly petty, you deserve to miss out on good music. And since when has 'The Doors' been a decent name? You don't get much blander to be honest...
  21. Rocker KidSalvaged from archive15 Oct 2006, 00:24
    Not really since I've heard most of their music. The name usually fits the kind of music. You don't name your band "Skulls From Hell" and then sing about daisys and rainbows. I'm not missing out I told you plus the music was no good, turns out my friend works for a mainly emo music club... Just some of the names are so long nobody can remember them....

    It's funny because when the big underground bands DO make it, all of the beard-stroking fans turn their backs and are like "Aw man they sold out!" and then go and find some other obscure band. I dunno, I just discovered a free wifi connection here at work and have been listening to last.fm daily as well as going out and downloading mixes from the different forums I'm on. Been finding some really, REALLY good shit lately.

However, I personally can't stand names that begin with "the", just don't ask me why... I get annoyed every time I hear such a name -_-

    T Rex re The Doors I believe The Name Started out as The Doors of Perception after The Drug Biog of Aldous Huxley The Gates of Heaven and Hell or The Doors of Perception Who Took The Name from William Blake So Bland "The Doors" was not The name may have started out all fancy and inspiring, but what were left with was dull and forgetable, the majority of the population are not aware of where the name came from, and are just left with 'the doors' and Jim Morrisons undeserving reputating. Don't get me wrong, I love listening to the Doors when in the right mood, but the name sucked, and Jim Morrison really dosnt live up to the legend that he has left behind, him dying is what really made people remember him tbh...

    If Morrison had only wrote Three Songs When The Music`s Over, The End and Horse Latitudes Two of which are on The "Strange Days" All Three had Echoes of Strindberg, Sate, Ginsberg, Whitman, Burroughs, These Alone Never Mind anything Else assured Him of Musical Immortality. Yes, He was a Flawed Genius but Most Geniuses are: Nevertheless He went on to Produce The American Prayer which was Like The Bastard Child of Whitman, Ferlinghetti, Kerouac Burroughs and Ginsberg The First Track upon The First Album "Break on Through To The Other Side" is Like A Metaphysical Manifesto Equal in Impact to "The Metaphysical Marriage of Christian Rosenkreutz" This not a Beatles This is Not A Rolling Stones This is The Doors Their Reference Points Are Baudelaire Blake De Sade Ginsberg Burroughs Kerouac Ferlinghetti Bretch Sate Strindberg Their Closest Reference Points Are VanDer Graaf Generator The Velvet Underground Amon Duul Genesis Yes TRex if you cannot see this You may have listened to them but You have Never Heard "The Doors" http://www.soundboard.com/sb/jimmorrison.aspx

    Why the fuck can you not type like a normal human being? I find it impossible to have dicussions with you (which is a shame tbh) purely because you seem to type with your fucking forehead...

    Money will always be a huge factor, from the bands of today, to most of the bands of the past... if they deny it, then they should do it for free, but they can't, cause lets face it, it's their job
  30. ColziSalvaged from archive4 Dec 2006, 17:44
    Another thing is if an artist ie Robbie Williams makes a record/single no matter what it sounds like its going t sell millions based on who he is- when he broke from Take That he had some cracking songs - such as -No Regrets- Millennium-She's the One- so yea those are worthy of money, however take his new single Rude box - sheer shite yet he's sold millions! If anyone else song that song it wouldnt get airplay!
  31. sorbusSalvaged from archive4 Dec 2006, 17:56
    Wha??? Do you Mean Robin Williams Late of The Corries I know Robin Williams The Actor and Comedian but as to Robbie Williams I do not have a clue who you are on about
  32. ColziSalvaged from archive4 Dec 2006, 18:28
    ha i like it i love it! U American Canadian - anyways He was part of Take That massive boyband in UK ( thats since regrouped after 10yrs) Anyhow Robbie Williams is huge in UK ( i dont know why -likely based on his Take that days!) Anyways Robbie Williams is a twat with a massive ego- thought the US would be a piece of piss to crack - however it never happend ! ROBBIE- in his hay day :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGzTyhSX7e0 ROBBIE now :roll: ( sorry in advance! ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82ymEMGSClE
  33. T.RexSalvaged from archive4 Dec 2006, 19:07
    Robbie is an arrogant twat, but he's a good singer, and the guy that used to write his older songs was a damn good songwriter. Angels is so good to sing along to when plastered, cos every fucker alive knows the words, and they are pretty great. I don't think much of alot of Robbies stuff, but I have to admit he does put on a damn good show, seeing Angels, Let me entertain you etc, live would be an expeirence for sure imo.
  34. ColziSalvaged from archive4 Dec 2006, 19:27
    Yea maybe the Yanks just couldnt bear his arrogance which is fair enough! Top class perfomer aye!
