[quote]f**k quality, you dont see me making threads about Beethoven or Amadeus, its whatever rocks your fuckin socks, right? I can listen to mcr turned up loud just the same as gnr. why can't you just let people enjoy what they want to? stop pushing your own crap on them, the last thing we need are a bunch of fallens running around with a bunch of tylers following right behind like puppies. just let people enjoy what they want to, no matter how terrible it might be.

Hate to say this but I agree with James on this. I'm getting like really bored with the fact that the Music section is becoming like this repetitive place where "Rock beats all! Omg! Quaility over anything!"

I understand that this place can't be a place for verbal masturbation either but I don't really see a problem with letting kids have their McR thread to talk about why they like them.

If you want to talk about quality of a band, make a thread about just that. That way, people won't get offended because then they're expecting a debate and disagreements. It saves time and pissed-off emotions that get wasted on younger kids who don't know any better.

But if a kid is making a thread that just wants to talk about a new album by a band then for God's sake, let the kids talk about their album. I understand that McR is technically not as good of a band as GnR or David Bowie. A lot of people do. But some people just like a band for the wild and crazy idea that they just enjoy the sound of the band.

For example, I'm going to make a really dirty confession right now actually. I like Fall Out Boy songs. I find their songs catchy and fun to listen to from time to time. Sure, there is no way that they're on the same level of talent as Black Sabbath but I don't care about that nor do I need a lecture about why Black Sabbath is better than Fall Out Boy.

All in all, I'm just proposing that the bashing of bands just stop, especially if the thread topic is not asking about the quality of the band. Let the little ones have their one McR-rave thread and one Fall Out Boy thread without it leading to "This band is not good because Point A, Point B, and Point C" and then the thread starter gets offended and pissed off and starts flaming. I'm sick of it.

Okay, I'm done ranting. You can mindrape me now, I brought the lube. Smile

I think James needs some happy pills since he's been an incredible bitch all week. That's my job, stop butting in.

[quote]Yadda yadda yadda propose no more band bashing...[/quote]

And I veto it. 'Cause I can do that. ^_^

Sure, kiddos can talk about their sh*tty bands all they want, but after the four posts of "NEW MCR ALBUM!" "HELLZ YEAH!" "IT'S GONNA BE SOOO GOOD!" "YEAH!!!", the end. They can go on their merry little way having said everything there is to say about that topic.

And then.

My turn. And Tyler's turn. And whoever has more than four brain cells and working hearing. It's not about changing what they listen to, I couldn't care less. It's about the quality of a band and [i]why[/i]. Crap bands are more fun to talk about than awesome bands 'cause there's more to say, but the same can be done for really great bands too. Slash's guitar playing is not technically that good if you look at it from a theory standpoint. His knowledge of scales and major and minor and harmony was lacking.

As I've said before, unless these people are in the band, it's nothing to them. And if they get offended by it, they should come up with logical arguments to defend them. If not, they can stfu.

And as I've also said before, if someone wants to go out and buy every Pretty Boy Floyd album just to bash lame bands [b]I[/b] like and listen to, be my guest. They could use the royalties.

Oh, and anyone who likes fall out boy deserves a slow painful death. My roommate does. I hit her in the back of the head.
