Easy to listen to? It induces vomiting when I hear it...

Yeah but you're a nu-metalhead. No one expects you to have taste.

He's got a point. Oomph! do you really think all music designed to be popular is crap? Or any definition of Pop really. I assure you I can name more good 'pop' artists than you can Nu-Metal artists.

What makes you think I do? I obviously don't think the music I listen to is 'designed' to be popular.

Why the hell are you talking about nu-metal? Also, about your challenge: are you talking nu-metal band and pop bands that currently exist? I will accept your challenge in that case (though 'good' is awefully subjective)
But if we are talking 'all time' I'm at a severe handicap since pop has existed a LOT longer than Nu-metal has.

But I really don't see why you people keep mentioning nu-metal, are you afraid of the truth, that I listen to heavy metal in general and you can't take on heavy metal in general so you label everything I listen to 'nu-metal' to make yourselves feel better?

I was agreeing with you.

Uh, did you misread my post? Considering you started a thread about what corperate garbage pop is I'd say I have a pretty good reason to believe you do.

It wasn't meant to be answered.
