Yeah, or maybe The Nurse?

But ah. Totally with you on your pick nonetheless.

Nirvana. Makes me think of Kurt. Then sadness. 'Cause Kurt Cobain was an amazing musician. But, like blackT said, it really shouldn't make me sad. Still love Nirvana lots though.

bollocks! when i can't distinguish the difference between two different songs by a band then they're depressing, the most uninteresting band EVER! although i dislike nirvana too :) (and im very aware that all this band hatings not going to make me very popular) if you put on a coldplay album after about 2 minites i'd forget it was there and it would become light background noise, but really crappy background noise, the kind that makes you want to peck out your eyes, can't stand them and refuse to accept that there's anything decent about them.

I voted for Coldplay. I am not usually one to get involved with the negative posts, but this isn't really negative. Depression is a valid emotion, or state of mind, same as hate, love, angst, etc.

My wife enjoys Coldplay. She says they're relaxing. It sounds like one long song to me.

The Used... by far in my opinion

They lift me up. Good n light for a pickmeup, if youre listening to the newer, and if youre listening to the old, its more like fast paced anger release than depressing.

But , music is all down to opinion. Thats just my take on it.

crashingsun 01-24-2006 01:51 PM

I voted for Other, or Floyd the Wall. High quality depression. Blue Sky might actually be the most depressing song in the album but there's a few close ones. The only thing I don't understand is these guys were rock stars. What did they have to be depressed about short of maybe having some chemical imbalance? (ahem, modern day crying brit bands) Still, beautifully sad music though. Screw Coldplay. I like Radiohead but hear the guy's a super obnoxious ass. I hate when fame screws with talent.

Sneer 01-24-2006 03:18 PM

i bet my future mortgage that most of the people that have voted for radiohead on this have heard at the most 5 songs. yes they can be, but so can every band worth their weight. i vote coldplay, just because there new album is so atrocious it makes me want to down a bottle of tranquillizers.

OK Computer, Kid A, Amnesiac, and Hail to the Thief are thematically really very depressing. Just listen to Pyramid song or A Wolf at the Door or Climbing Up the Walls.

Sneer 01-24-2006 03:29 PM

....do you not think i havent heard those songs? i ownly literally everything they've done. and yes, granted, OK computer, amnesiac and kid A dwelve in more negative overtones. but the messages prevalent in their sonhgs are uplifting, its almost lyrical advice and help. the bends and large segments of pablo honey, hail to the thief and even OK computer have that affect.

Shooting Star 01-24-2006 05:19 PM

I can see that for Pablo Honey and the Bends, and the music for a lot of OK Computer can be really uplifting but the message it's getting across doesn't seem to be at all. Like No surprises is very quaint and nice but about giving in to monotony, and the upbeat electioneering is about rigging votes so the electoral system is useless. Kid A and Amnesiac are really stark.

ShOwTiM3 01-24-2006 05:36 PM

Nirvana - Rape Me is also a very depressing song... in my opinion. Cobain sing this very emotionely... as every single Nirvana's songs.

judas_priest 01-25-2006 01:39 PM

^ Agreed. Nirvana are pretty depressing.
Coldplay are definitely the worst though.

gregb 01-25-2006 01:40 PM

I think the term Haunting, is better than depressing for most of the above bands. I would vote for abandonded pools as most haunting.

because you totally go overboard with the comments about them.....x&y couldn't have possibly been THAT attrocious....perhapse uninteresting or bland ..to you....but....you get my drift....

Sneer 01-25-2006 02:06 PM

in my opinion it is atrocious. is that so hard to get your head around?!

yes, yes it is.....it's simply not that kind of music....in my mind, only death metal, iron maiden, bon jovi and other kind of crimes against humanity can be called atrocious...coldplay is just bland to most people who dislike them......just like u2 is to me....but i definetly don't cringe when i hear them, i just switch the channel....because they're dull.....

Sneer 01-25-2006 02:19 PM

the key words being "in my mind". different people hate different things. the sooner you grasp the concept of personal opinion the better.

if i haven't done that in my 8 months here, why should i start now.
i hate to repeat myself, but you should have learned by now, there is only my opinion, other opinions don't exist and/or are not valid or worth as much as mine.....


that is all....enjoy the rest of your evening....:)

crashingsun 01-25-2006 03:07 PM

if depressing-good I stick with floyd

depressing-bad probably coldplay though i don't think I've listened to an entire song so maybe i shouldn't judge them except most people i know seem to hate them

neurotic/alienated=nirvana or radiohead

haunting = some songs on peter gabriel us

that's all i have for now without actual thought applied and i usually never follow trends either so imagine that

It's future first of all. And from a technical proficiency standpoint, Iron Maiden **** all over Coldplay. From an originality/innovative standpoint... Iron Maiden gets the prize for that one too.

And yes "OMGZ OpInIonz0red", I thought that bit of immaturity would appeal to your immature taste and typing. I don't expect to be growing anymore than I already am now, which is an acceptable height, unless you mean mature in a mental standpoint which I'm certain I don't need to. Thanks.

More specifically I'm judging by the fact that you completely debased an entire genre (very stupid thing to do, very stereotypical), and saying Coldplay are preferable to Iron Maiden. Those two statements alone make me question whatever taste you claim to have.

Vismund Cygnus 01-25-2006 03:26 PM

Ah an argument, my money is on Phil.

Go Phil, go!

I don't mean to make a point of being an ass... I just tend to like to argue. I hope it doesn't make me a bad person. :(

i debased an entire genre...yes, death metal, if your comment was supposed to mean that i shouldn't discard every band that is labeled as death metal, all i can say, and why is that? if there is one genre in this world that is pretty unique and standard in sound, i think it's death metal, and i don't like it....

and putting iron maiden over coldplay, yes, any day..in fact, i'd put bon jovi over iron maiden.....and that's saying something.....

now go play dungeons and dragons kid....

Yes, you debased an entire genre. This is what we call generalization/stereotyping/bias. Because you've heard some death metal you dislike, if all death metal you've heard you dislike, it doesn't mean the entire genre must be bad. There is always a chance you'll discover a band in said genre that you like, if you keep an open mind. It's like saying every black man you've ever met has tried to steal from you, therefore the entire black race is evil.

And now you're into your own opinion about Iron Maiden, ignoring things that can be objectively described such as musicianship or originality. I'm glad you have your own opinion about things but frankly I can argue why Iron Maiden is much better than Bon Jovi or Coldplay easily.

And no, I won't go play Dungeons and Dragons. I don't know how to play, I don't own any of the necessary things to play, and I don't know anyone who does play. Good day.

Urban Hat€monger ? 01-25-2006 03:37 PM

I think people should be allowed to hate at least one band without having to resort to facts or figures.

With Adidasss it`s Iron Maiden for me it`s U2
