    But because I'm wrong, it means neither of us are right. You're less right, though.

    Why is that?

    Oh, and I'm assuming this is a place where your opinion completely guards you? No disagreeing at all?

    In that case, Jesus is a Lemmy-wannabe.

    My brother and all his english-lit-major friends are Tool fans. They enjoy sipping red wine by a fire, while listening to Tchaikovsky and debating the state of the economy.

    ... I can see it now.

    Tool have their fair share of unadulterated anger songs, too. I can't see "Crawl Away" being a scholars choice.

    i find their music to be equally bad, but at least paramore doesn't ham it up.
    plus, i associate an annoying fanbase with paramore, but at least they're not an annoying AND cluelessly pretentious fanbase.

    Hm, I don't think I've ever actually talked to a pretentious Coheed and Cambria fan... well, one.

    I'm a casual Tool fan. Every time I say that, someone always says, "Dude, that's not possible!"

    I can't stand pretentious fans of any band, even bands I like and especially bands I don't like.

    I think that if most of the singers in popular music died, honestly, no one would care, because there would be a legion of talentless drones to follow them in their path of mediocrity.

    And I can't stand people who go "You don't like *insert pop-rock band here*?!? You should listen to them more, you'll like them!" Actually, I was really into pop-rock at one time, so yes, I've listened to them and yes, I don't like them. With pop-rock, you've heard all you're going to hear the first time you hear it. With other kinds of rock music, you hear this cool lyric here, or this guitar solo here, or how the bassline went, or other elements you missed before, and it gets better with every listen because of that. It just gets on my nerves.

    That's not to say that I think that all pop-rock is bad. I do have a few guilty pleasures... that I'm NOT going to say.
    Would you pay for music by Beck?
    Maybe.
    What if you heard he owned a plane made of gold?
    Sure.
    Good, because he needs the money.

    Here's the Crawl Away lyrics I was talking about.

    Crawled away from me. slipped away from me.
    Tried to keep a hold, but there was nothing I could say.
    Slid away from me. crept away from me.
    Tried to keep it down, but there was nothing I could say.

    What you try to say is you dont wanna play.
    What you want and what you need dont mean that much to me.

    I can see youre back is turning. if I could, Id stick a knife in.

    This is love...
    This is my love for you...
    This is my love...
    This is my love for you...
    This is my love for you...
    This is my love for you...
    This is my love!

    Say you wont go.
    Wont go... wont go... say it.
    Get you in a strangle hold baby.
    Get it till you get it right.

    What you try to say is you dont wanna play.
    What you want and what you need dont mean a **** to me

    I can see youre back is turning. if I could, Id stick a knife in.


    It's very well written, of course, but like I said, it doesn't seem like something to listen to next to the fireplace.

    Fair enough. I haven't delved into Tool a whole lot, but I was merely stating that a lot of the Tool fans I have met will bring up how intelligent and cryptic the lyrics are.

    I could see a high-class scholar in a silk bathrobe sipping red wine next to the fireplace to that song, what are you talking about?

    I like some Pixies songs but some I find very very annoying. Black Francis' voice can annoy you after while.
