freaking amazing or pure garbage???

What's really funny is if you talk to someone and he's a complete jackass, you can say , yeah man , what a jackass, and no one will question it.

But if you say, damn, that music sucks a large hairy one, well, you get lectures about taste.

There's a huge amount of really bad 'musik' out there. In all fields, from rap, to opera.

for aficionados of the extreme--- does super high volume and hyper extended notes cause altered states? this band's fans believe so.... WARNING, this is not for the faint of hearing or those with WEAK SOULS........

not trying to be a downer but the first band you posted seems like a clumsy combo of textbook prog and harcore. two styles that have been around since the 70s. definitely, there's nothing really innovative about that band. i don't keep up too well, but i promise you there are bands 50 times better that did the exact same thing including the beats and stark contrasts, 10-15 years ago

the vid above is pretty much a dead ripoff of the melvins circa 1992

still, it's cool to see shit you've never seen before. if you're into that, wfmu is a great radio station that plays great esoteric/unusual music 24/7/365

melvins! the guy with the wacked out hair, haven't hear that group for years.


very astute---- sun ooooo-- the band above, and a similar more musical band named boris--both list the melvins as major influences. nice to see another cool music fan.

thanks for the radio tip!

surf:D
 
sure, thanks. if you can tolerate leaving it on for a stretch of several hours through some of the more endurance-required programming, it's entirely possible you'll hear something mindblowing on wfmu a few times a day. they archive everything and the programming is extremely varied. they're basically a large group of very talented music/cultural anthropologists

my opinion is they are amazing---incredibly precise yet chaotic. napalm death meets depeche mode-----

may I present the future of Rock and Roll, lady and germs:

I'm on the east coast....and this is growing in the hood so to speak....the white hood. I've heard it in the garage bands around town. My sons friends do this kind of music, 13 to 18 years olds putting it out. To me its a temper tantrum through music. Frustrations of lower class white boys finding their voice in todays world. It does have its place!

If you like this kind of stuff you be better served checking out The Dillinger Escape Plan, as well as some of Mike Patton's side projects...
Now these guys truly rock:

good points, yeah, music is a great artistic outlet. i look at bands as little entrepreneurial ventures combined with controlled rebellion and loads of good old fun! the organization required to put a band together, get gigs, makes deals, hire and fire, manage the money at times, be on time, rent or buy equipment, learn the business, etc etc is an awesome training ground for young people.

however, i disagree with the lower class stereotype--- the love of music and the desire to make it-- cuts across all demographics. back in the day, it was the son of the president of a national bank who excelled in my hometown as a punk rocker--- hardly a lower class family. just because something "sounds" like its from the gutter--- means little in reality most of the time.

best wishes,
