U2, used to think they were a buncha sell outs(which they are) but one day i heard a block of their music on the radio and gave them a chance. less than 2 months later i had a ticket to their chicago show (9/20/05) on the floor and have been a big fan since.

I couldn't stand incubus, there new stuff is just mainstream crap that is generic and boring. But I recently heard the cd SCIENCE and I love it. It is such a rocking cd I don't know how they could go from that to something like morning view, what a shame!

I love Incubus but when I heard A Crow Lef Of The Murder I almost cracked up, what a piece of EMO shit. Let's hear some decent music on the next CD.

I loved Crow Left of the Murder, thought it was their best album. Not one song is bad and brendan did a wonderfull job producing it. I dare you to look at Priceless solo and tell me its one of the craziest solo ever. He picks every note omg. But anyway talk shows, megalomaniac, Made for TV moviem, Pistola all are great songs. Plus great live band, and i dont see the emo connection, Brandon is not wanting to slit his wrists on any songs. The only song where he talking about anything emoish is Agorapohebia and here in my room.

Zep are beginning to grow on me at last. I'm still not a fan of Bonham's drumming though. It doesn't swing enough for my liking; it's too Ye Mighty Hammer of Thor. But I quite like Led Zep III.

You know, I used to think the same thing about Bonzo's drumming. But the more I listened to it, the more I was blown away. For someone who can slam his kit like he did, he plays with some amazing dynamics. And he swings like a motherfucker! That's why that band was so devastating. They were like a heavy rock version of James Brown's band. Their groove was so insane. They were FUNKY. Page's riffs were nasty, JPJ was/is one of the best bass players ever, and the way Bonzo played off of, and with the two is genious. What he could do with his kick drum was amazing, and he made it appear effortlessly, like he never had to break a sweat. This is the same impression I get when listening to great funk and R&B bands like James Brown or the Meters. If Bonham or John Paul Jones had not been in Zeppelin, that band would not have worked. Or if they did, it would be a pale shadow of what they were. Just another flat, flaccid, 70's boogie band.

Give it a second chance and listen closely, and I think you'll see what I mean. If not that's cool too. Everyone has their own opinion.

Not a fan of Bonham's drumming???!?! :eek: Damn! I literally forget that opinion actually exists!! :eek: haha. LOL @ the " Ye Mighty Hammer of Thor" comment though. That did make me laugh. I still think Bonham is THE best rock drummer there ever was. He is in a superior league ALL his own. But hey, to each his/her own. Focusing on the good....very cool to hear Zep is growing on you. Love all their stuff but Led Zep II is definitely the one I've always found myself completely, overly obsessed with.

OK...getting back to the topic though. hehe. Just couldn't resist commenting on that.


Bands u didn't like before but like now!

2 really stand out for me....

FOO FIGHTERS ~ Never thought much of them even though their songs would always get lodged in my skull and I'd walk around constantly singing them. I just never really considered myself a fan. Then out came In Your Honor. Completely blew my mind and made me reevaluate the whole "I'm not sure if I'm really a fan" thing. Yes, I'm a fan and can finally admit with confidence that I like them.


DAVE MATTHEWS ~ I've had problems with him for a loooong time. Sadly he is one artist I reeeeally feel like I should like, but something just never worked out there. Love his lyrics SO much...he really has such a gift there, such a gift in general. I've always admired and appreciated the talent but something just never connected with me. Well thanks to one of my dearest friends who asked me to describe the things that bother me about his music...the violent horns, his weird twang etc.....she made me a mix cd of gentler Dave songs and BAM!!! I've found Dave that I actually LOVE! I'm very happy about that. I also went with her to see DMB live and that uped some points big time as well. SO yeah, I'm a selective fan with him...but a fan no doubt. We've had our problems, and still have our differences.....but we've met halfway and now we're friends.

bigmuzz

you am i...........i used to bag them in high school, simply because some chicks i knew liked them, so i called them a chick band.......but a couple of years ago i actually gave them a listen and enjoyed it..........

now i love them.............my how the tables turn.............cos now all my friends bag me out, cos i used to bag them out for the same thing.........

haha
