Yeah, I know they're your favorite band (you only bring it up ALL OF THE TIME). That's why I used them as the example.Quote:

fair point haha. I assume now we have a music thread I might reach out a little further... also a lot of the bands that I like are not bands that other people like and often leads to silly arguments about the legitimacy of the bands. Do you have a favorite band?Quote:

finished listening to the album deloused in the comatorium by the mars volta...

I don't ever really like short songs like that.. it's just a transition. The highs definitely outweighed the lows though. the drums were sick through out the entire album as well.
I know! I didn't know anyone would know that! *looks down at shirt to make sure he isn't wearing a foo fighters t-shirt*Quote:

I mean, if I had never stepped outside of my comfort zone, I would have missed out on stellar stuff like Jurassic 5 and Florence and the Machine. Now I couldn't imagine not having those groups in my life.Quote:

yea, my friend and I often debate which band is better fatm or paramore... and his case is always that florence is not as good as a singer... which just happens to be an opinion, one that we disagree on so I get what you mean when you say you can't really be apologetic for things that you like. Do you like any bands lead by females? I know sometimes that's the problem people have with fatm.Quote:
