^Little bit poppier than the NY Dolls but yes, the first few albums were great, especially S/T and Alive!

Who doesn't enjoy their own farts to some degree?

The degree at which I enjoy my farts are the highest on the scale.

Anyway, in regard to Limp Bizkit or whatever, I escaped that one. Never liked them. My mid to late '90s were all mostly punk and pop-punk oriented. I was pretty closed-minded to anything else, but some stuff got through. Then from the late '90s to around 2002, I was pretty much in the drug-induced rave phase.
I was shielded from a good bit of crap, but also a lot of good stuff that I'm only discovering now. I guess it's better late than never.

But speaking of Nu-Metal, the one band I've liked since the '90s and to this day is Deftones. I think I still like them now because of the nostalgia effect, but I'm ok with that.

Their earlier stuff were a bit more tolerable than the rest. Hotter than Hell was ok. The rest is pretty much a no.

I'm starting to seriously dislike Madonna. It's getting harder and harder to enjoy her music knowing what a d!ck she can be.

I've been a die-hard fan for over 15 years. Seniority is the only thing that allows me to overlook her selfishness, but it's getting exhausting.

I recommend a revisit of the Erotica era. It's a lot more interesting than people gave it credit.

I've come to terms with it. In middle school I felt like my music had to have a parental advisory on it and in my defense, Limp Bizkit was quite different from what I knew about at the time. Other stuff I listened to around that time: Dr. Dre, Eminem, The Offspring, Korn, Disturbed, etc. Stuff my parents listened to that I was exposed to and may have subconsciously liked but didn't realize till later: Talking Heads, Genesis, Elton John, Jean-Michel Jarre, the Big Chill soundtrack, etc. I just wanted something totally different. I actually thank the Red Hot Chili Peppers for getting me back on track and the Smashing Pumpkins for making it an obsession.

I think 'Erotica' is hands down Madonna's best song. That era for her, she was at a cross-roads and she really should have gone weirdo at that point; become the dance diva version of Jarboe or Evangelista. I think if she had cared more about the art than the accolades, she might have gone that route and still have been quite successful. We're left with a great song though...
