Dun dun dun!

[sonerohi]

Why does Michael Jackson chew with his mouth open? Table manners dictate that the mouth should be closed.

[Wideman]

hmm i actually agree the spiked collar is ott but if its not like pure screamo thts just sounds like noise than its ok XD

[Dwarf]

I guess you are referring to Black Metal when you say screamo?

[Hippoman]

Dun dun dun!

that's being played backwards.

[Siquo]

Sorry Wideman, the best metal was made in the 90's. Today's emo-screamo-whino-goths really don't deserve the term "metal". 

But as you listen to "the music of now", what is that? What do the youngsters listen to, nowadays? I'm stuck with the same old music I've listened to for the last 20 years, and the above statement may be wrong. I certainly hope it is. Give us some links.

EagleV: Lucky Bastard. Mine hates computergames.

[Bandages]

Well, I'm "young".

My three favorite styles of music I like listening to are probably best expressed by the following bands/artists:
The Strokes
Andrew Bird
Why?



yep

[Heron TSG]

I find that a lot of 'dance music', rap, techno, and metal these days is either too upbeat[1], has no rhythm, or the singers are just whiny.

[1]: It's like they're thinking, "How can I make this exciting? Oh, I know! dadadadadadadadada!"

[Karnewarrior]

I like Reel Big Fish, Lostprophets, and Tripod.
I'm a very happy person.

This changed from pictures of Bay12ers to a discussion of music :-P

[KaelGotDwarves]

Nowadays, the best "new" music for me has been stuff that defies old genre boundaries. Things like Joanna Newsom (labeled freak-folk), Frederico Aubele - his wife Natalia Clavier (latin/trip-hop/lounge), new electronica (I don't even know what they call trance/progressive/electro-pop anymore) in the way of Imogen Heap.

Spoilers: most techno isn't really "techno", it's a generic term to describe electronic dance music that was popularized during the 90s. Anyone who calls it techno is like people who call emo whingefest music metal.

Agreed, nothing beats 90s Burzum, Darkthrone, Immortal, Mayhem…

Except that one song with that one note that is all like [guitar sound here because I can't type guitar sounds]/too-vague-of-a-description.

[Bandages]

Okay, okay! Enough music dicussion!

Hipster photo time!

Spoiler: Dude, I am so into coffee and the environment. I like that band you've never heard of - but only their first album. (click to show/hide)

That was taken spring '09. I've gotten a haircut since then :x

[Jackrabbit]

I love your glasses. You are awesome for all time because of them.
