39 - 3. I think you're in the majority.

Best band of all time
 
Hi all
Porcupine Tree is a good band but not a best band of all time. The best band of all time is from Pink Floyd, The Who, The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, Guns N roses and Metallica.

boo boo 07-31-2007 03:05 AM

The best band of all time is from 6 other bands?

That made no sense.

Guns N Roses probably rank among the worst ever. Metallica are outright sell outs with only 4 and a half good albums and 20 works of unlistenable vomit. The Rolling Stones weren't bad but don't live up to the hype, and it says a lot when your band's best song is another band's worst song. The Beatles started off as some form of horrible proto-pop and only got good late career though that late career material is arguably the most influential music ever so I'll give you The Beatles. Pink Floyd and The Who are both awesome.

So you have a list that is ripped right out of generic-guitbox-magezine with only 3 notably great bands. You fail at the interweb, please quit.

Normally I would bait you by ranting about how horrible Napalm Death is, but I'll just agree to disagree.

Quote:

Metallica are outright sell outs.
Any band who joins a record label (major or indie, mattets not) is a sell out. If you're selling your art as product. You're selling out, thats a fact. Every band you like has sold out a long time ago.

Its one guys opinion. Who cares?

Oh my bad. This is a guy who makes threads like "Some generic prog band no one cares about is the greatest band ever and I'm gonna scold anyone who disagrees" and "And this is the worst band ever and I refuse to acknowledge they have talent even though they do and I'm gonna scold anyone who disagrees and even go as far as to tell them they are a rotten human being for liking them", so to expect you to have respect for anyones opinion is out of the question.

Even your avatar is unappologetically obnoxious. Everything about you says "please ban me".

I don't understand how you can not like Napalm Death they are original and created the Grindcore genre. Their death metal wasn't that bad either.

Not really. You don't sell out until you make music for something other than yourself and music.

The Beatles were great when they started. They weren't as good as they were when they released Abby Road or Sgt. Peppers, but they were still good.

These sentences (?) are punctuated so horribly that I'm not even sure if its English. There are plenty of bands who are signed to labels who do it for the music and got lucky. I wouldn't call them sell outs by any means. Also, art is a plausible business, I don't see why using it as such is a bad thing. The problem occurs when when smaller artists/distributors/companies/labels/whatever else fall behind because they're not as fiscally privileged as some of the bigger ones. Only then does it turn into a marketing race where the art quits mattering.

Ok. First off, anyone who says "quits mattering" should not criticise my grammar.

And regardless of your intentions, if you sell your art for money. You are selling out, theres absolutely no going around it.

Even as someone who dispises the status of The Rolling Stones with an incredible passion. I can still accept that they are better than Judas Priest. At least in my opinion.

So you can make more records in a studio where you can produce your music well. The money is just something on the side. I would think it would be hard to be in a band and work a full time job at the same time.

No, he knows what I mean. In music, limits are pointless. When people put a lot of limits on music such as "a guitar shouldn't sound like another instrument" then that presents a problem.

I agree that music is limitless. That's why I like all that avant-garde stuff.

Art is limitless too, which is why I hate when people make fun of modern art. I personally like it better than the old stuff.

Byakuya pisses me off. He disobeyed his dead wifes wishes by refusing to prevent the execution of her sister (and his own adoptive sister) Rukia, and for what? So his folks wouldn't be upset with him? What an assh*le.

Kenpachi rules though. He's my favorite. Ikkaku also rules.

But Byakuya had to obey the orders. Ichigo is really the only person who liked Rukia so therefore it wasn't like she would be missed. Actually Kon would have missed her a bit, but he always has Orihime.

Yeah Kenpachi is cool because he is a bad***. The vice-captain and him together are hilarious.


I haven't watched Bleach since the middle of the bounto series. I hated that arc. The animes I have been watching are Hellsing Ultimate, Monster, and Death Note. I haven't watched any anime in months though.

Wrong. Renji, Chad, Ishida, Orihime, Hanatarō, Yoruichi, Urahara and Ukitake all helped Ichigo because they wanted to save her as well.

Rukia is one of my favorite chatacters. Shes the more likable foil to Ichigo, who is a jerk most of the time. Shes not a stereotypical anime heroine (weak, over emotional, naive) either. Like Orihime, or Kagome.

The 11th squad is the best.

It had its moments. Since the Arrancar arc it's gotten a lot better though. Aizen is a much more interesting villian than Kariya was.

Well when you think about it she has to be somewhat weak in that she isn't very high in the ranks. As far as I remember her strong point was Kidou though so I can give that to her.

Quote:

Yeah it is. Though I like the 10th division a bit because of how Hitsu***a and Matsumoto act together. The worst division has to be the 12th because I think that the captain is just evil. I think he is more evil than Aizen. (sp?)

Quote:

Maybe I will give it a shot. Do you get your Bleach from Bleachportal?

Edit: What episode does the arc start at?

Her Zanpakutō is pretty cool too. Its similar to Hitsugaya's in that it has an Ice theme. Too bad she rarely uses it.

Yeah Mayuri is pretty cold, but he's an interesting character. I hope he makes a return appearance.

lol. I get my bleach from Bleach Portal and I get everything else from the distro site I work on L9IAnime. We distro a lot so there isn't much need for me to go anywhere else. Most of it is done through XDCC bots on the mIRC channel, but we do provide a bit of torrents and we had/have some DDLs.

Added your forum to favorites.

As for Bleach Portal, which particular versions are available? English dubs or the original Japanese versions? Or both.

I prefer the originals, even though its a pain to read AND watch. But the dialog is just better.

Well on Bleach portal you can get subs and dubs I think, but I always get subs. English was not meant for anime.
