Randomly Crap Out Your Opinions Thread

I hate the coldplay singer's voice. I like plenty of weird voices, but his annoys the crap outta me.

I just hate Coldplay in general.

[Runesmith]

If the so-called "classics" even made the charts at all.

Bingo. It's cliche to mention, but Jimi Hendrix with and without the Experience only had one Top 40 hit in his entire career.

stop

Gooby pls

I've warmed up to Animal Collective, but I think their singles and last three or four albums are a pretty poor representation of their music.

80% of my music collection is in no way related to the internet. Haven't heard it on the internet, haven't been recommended it by someone on the internet.

Just sayin' how there are other (and better) ways of discovering new music other than AM/FM radio nowadays. The internet is just one of them and arguably the biggest for unsigned, low-tier/mid-tier artists to get their name out there for more people to hear and discover.

For me, it's probably about 70% of the music I listen to I would have never known if it wasn't for the internet and its streaming services, recommendations, social media sites, etc. And a good majority of those being downright impossible to discover without the internet, so I'd say it's a pretty good method to go by.

I'd say that about 50% of what I have in my music collection I discovered through the Internet. Rougly 20% was via Satellite Radio, 15% was via buying albums based on a band's album covers and/or hearing their music being played at an indepenant record store, 10% reccomendations via friends, and 5% mainstream media (if that).

Not sure about proportions, but from most to least here's where I discover most of my music:

• The internet, particularly last.fm.
• Videogame soundtracks. GH and RB are the main ones, but I also discovered some bands through Saints Row and Brutal Legend.
• Free CDs in music magazines.
• Support acts for bands I see live.
• Other.

I have a goto guy for music who has set me up with almost all of my current favorite bands of all time. no joke. He literally has shown me every one of my top five bands.

Also, I think that Metallica is over-rated. Some one will likely crucify me for that statement, but I only think it because I'm not the biggest metal fan in any sense of the word. It just does nothing for me.

You're clearly new here

Not only is Metallica overrated, all of the Big Four of thrash (Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer, Anthrax) are.

[SuperTigerMario]

Not another Big Four conversation. Please.

[Henry_Sardonicus]

I consider Slayer to be overrated, and I like Megadeth, but I hate Dave Mustaine.

I don't let politics get in the way of my music. Otherwise I could never listen to Moby.

[SuperTigerMario]

Or Ted Nugent.
