I just think it's silly to refer to music you think is good as "****ty".

With that said, good thread. I'm not going trying to derail it.

You know it was kind of a tongue-in-cheek title I thought up in about five seconds. It wasn't meant to be some grand statement. It's just a reference to at least vaguely trashy metal that isn't really meant to be particularly exclusive.

Attention seeking? Me? Never.
