I like Spider Snipe...



charlie is a fantastic album though. it's the most varied i find.

i hate to say it but whenever i listen to melt banana i just get a message of "HEY we can't play for shit iSN'T THIS GREAT"

i don't know though i've heard spathic and like 4 songs from cell scape

[rtil]

that\\\'s what i like about them so much. no real sense of rhythm or melody, it\\\'s mostly just noise and screaming and things and thats\\\' what draws me to it
also the fact that if you want to like
clear a room full of people
melt banana is probably the band to play to make them all go away as quickly as possible

i find noise music really ummm relaxing because i get sick of a typical song setup most of the time (verse chorus verse etc)

[Nadroj0711]

taylor, you don't have to like them
but wait
i thought you did like melt banana

[trent bortknob]

there's stuff like that that isn't just noise its called proggressive rock????

you would like the mars volta (maybe) but there's other good bands like king crimson

[rtil]

i thought progressive rock was stuff like liquid tension expirement that stuff is gay

and also no i\\\'m not interested in the mars volta or king crimson i like unstructured music like noise better

things like "talent" aren\\\'t a concern of mine either

[trent bortknob]

im just saying if you want to listen to music that isnt purposefully bad but isnt like pop structured you should listen to it

when i say progressive you probably think of rush or other gay bands but you should give something i say a chance!!!

[Nadroj0711]

things like "talent" aren't a concern of mine either

then might i make a suggestion as a student of music
have you heard of minimalism
it's music based on easy motives
and it doesn't really have much of an identifiable structure
this just might be your thing!!!!!!

[rtil]

look i'm not gonna get into all these gay technical terms for types of music i just like how melt banana and a lot of bands like them sound and that's the way it is
i don't think they're purposely trying to sound bad, they like what they play and there's people that like what they make

[Nadroj0711]

oh, i wasn't saying anything about melt banana
i was just wondering if you would be interested

[Philip K Dick]

i'd say the mars volta is less structured than melt-banana

[Philip K Dick]

progressive rock is a pretty shitty genre in general though. there are several reasons why. most prog bands are just trying too hard to be, well, progressive, and just sounding bad. bands like rush and king crimson have a few good songs but are incredibly overrated and cause the whole progressive rock genre to be so as well. bands like dream theater just plain suck. progressive metal is one of the worst genres ever conceived.

thats my opinion anyway!

[rtil]

how is mars volta possibly less structured than melt banana
especially melt banana's old stuff

[MRat]

This thread is so filled with lack of musical knowledge that you could swim in it. You all are thinking in term of how something sounds, not how it's built. So says I, and I've got a producer credit on a CD, so I feel much more qualified than I am to make such claims.

Anyway, dividing music in genres is stupid because all music is going to be different. End of. Your wasting your time classifying and labelling things, just listen and like it or don't. If you enjoy it, good for you, have a cookie, else just leave the shit alone and move on.



ALSO have you ever read the music for Mars Volta? It's super strutctured. ALSO Melt-Banana is fine as it is, why are you comparing it to other things.

ALSO Rush and King Crimson are very mildly progressive. Stuff that is more typical of progressive music would be bands like An Endless Sporatic.

ALSO King Crimson songs are usually very chorus heavy, so I don't know what your on about Taylor.

ALSO Stephen King. That is all.










Yeah I know, I have no idea what I'm talking about. This shit just came right on out of my ass.

[rtil]

that was probably the most elitist post i've ever read on this forum
