One of these days he's going to Rickroll us and we'll realize that this was the ultimate troll.

That made me laugh even though I was thinking I doubt anyone is clicking the links

Just the idea of doing thousands of links just for one rickroll is really lol

Hair metal still sounds good, and that hasn't changed, nor will it. I'm not interested in listening to some boring downtempo guitar and and a guy complaining about his life. Crying about how depressed they are?
Has anyone forgotten that AIC actually began as a heavy metal band? They switched to grunge via request of Columbia/Sony Music. Fyi, current AIC bassist Mike Inez played for Ozzy before joining his current band.
Nirvana's music is so negative and so deep down depressing that it's not even possible to enjoy. Gave them a try I don't know how many times but couldn't. Their music is just plain awful. Ditto with Bush - not to mention the fact that singer Gavin Rossdale (who had a fan tossed out of a Bush show in Toronto a couple decades ago - for wearing a Rush, not Bush, tee) is a huge douchebag. I can understand if some people don't like this kind of music but I think it is kind of bull**** when people choose to hate this form of music just because of the way the bands dressed. If you hate a form of music simply because of the way the bands looked you are obviously not comfortable with your own sexuality. The Glam metal scene was more manly than any other form of metal. They partied, played music about good times, and they ****ed **** tons of hot chicks, and did plenty of drugs. What is more manly than that? Alice in Chains were a glam band they just changed their image once their comrades in Seattle we're getting noticed. Vince Neil said it best. Not other people's fault you can't score women or have a good time. What are you mad at living in the suburbs? Your parents grounding you because you wouldn't take out the trash? People in the slums who are products of their environment and have no control of institutional racism, redlining, and neglect, laugh at you guys. Try being depressed when there's no jobs in the community, no education, run down houses, rows of brick project buildings, flooding of crack/heroin, prostitution, blackouts, and being ecstatic to receive free lunches at the local YMCA. You understand where I'm getting at? That's what Hip Hop was born off. REAL struggle and people never made any whiney/emo music. Metal would still be popular today. But the industry wanted the talentless Grunge bands to make some money. So they Pushed the urban white kid into thinking it was cool music. Man were they misled.

Man with your insight I bet you could take over the world if you started a label.
