Metal.

No man, the chicks go in front. That chick behind you, she ain't no chick.

o.O serious? Thought I felt a jab in my behind

And neversoft I wholeheartedly agree

[summer]

iTunes tells me that the 'metal' music in my library is- Feeder, System of a Down, Tool and Underoath.

I know Feeder definitely aren't, but I don't properly know what metal actually is so uhh..

[samsaBEAR]

It is. It really is. Everyone's always talking about how "oh, music isnt the way it used to be; old music was so much better" but I've rarely heard someone say "classic rock sucks". For some reason you can smack talk all of today's music but god forbid someone says Led Zeppelin wasen't that great. I'm kinda sick of hearing about it. Yes, we get it, when everyone was high, drunk, getting in fights with other band members and making the lamest music video ever, it was much more fun. But get with the times. Music changes, it doesnt make it worse.

i agree
sure, you have to have some appriciation for classic rock, without those bands, music wouldn't have been such the big thing it is today. however, i belive nowadays, music is a lot more dynamic, it has a lot more going for it.

Don't get why not many people like classic rock guess they're into hip hop..yo..

>_>

And meh, I was told that Hendrix was overrated once, felt like hitting him

What's wrong with Hip Hop? And you are being incredibly biased. Just because you like Led Zepp/Hendrix it means they must have done more for their genre, get over yourself!

Lol, sorry are you telling me to get with the times? I'll do and like whatever music I want. =/ Just because it's old, doesn't mean you can't like it anymore. Jeez, my nan is old but I still like her. Also, all I said in my post was 'Was that a joke too?' Who said anything muisc changes or making it worse? :rolleyes: Oh and by the way, some of the music videos back then were amazing and alot better than they are now.

Probably about 90-95% of music videos are better now purely based on technology changes and how much a band/artist spends on music videos.

Because Zepp/Hendrix/Beatles have done more for their genre than any other band? :rolleyes:

tbh, i think sam summed it up.

What have Zepp done to their genre that Blink 182 haven't to theirs? Hell, atleast the genres I'm talking about are still alive.

Well considering led zepp disbanded because of bonzo's death- if bonzo was still here they'd still be rocking now most likely.


Also:

"Led Zeppelin IV is the fourth best-selling album in history, having sold more than 22 million copies, and four other albums by the band – Physical Graffiti, Led Zeppelin II, Houses of the Holy and Led Zeppelin - also rank among the all-time top 100"

They've had such an impact on music, album sales, inspired many people, (not too sure if the whole of the band has) but jimmy page is in the music hall of fame.

So meh..

By the way i'm not disrespecting blink-182- they're a great band, I just don't think you can compare the two to be honest.

Yeah but Classic Rock/that type of rock isn't alive. It's just rated highly upon people who are living in the past/barely listen to new music "because it doesn't compare".
And also, what is wrong with Hip Hop? I'm pretty sure you made a sarcastic comment about it.

Classic rock is still alive sort of: White stripes/Rolling stones (they'll die in about 100 years)/aerosmith etc (sorry very tired so can't give good examples)

Music just seems to be bland.. everyone's copying each other kind of, still a few good bands out there, just seems like music needs a kick in the right direction: more original bands etc: sort of why I like enter shikari: Rave/Rock/Metal kind of thing: Not too keen on the songs but I like their originality.

Also hip-hop is ok... I prefer old school rap/hip hop like run-dmc and all, 50 cent/eminem/eurgh.. *jumps off cliff*
