Hey folks ...remember music?Its what you like to listen to when you're at home...not the stuff you pretend to listen to to impess 'scenesters'...the bands you actually like....remember your friends?The ones that dont really care how hardcore you are??????
-
-
i agree with ants in the case of quite a lot of people. don't get the boggy bit, though...
-
I don't know if it's aimed at Boggy or it's what Boggy thinks himself. I'm pretty sure that Boggy shares the same idea
-
i remember that... ah, good times.
-
Boggy asked me to start the topic...
-
haha shithot
yeah, but its got nothing to do with "hardcore" or whatever. Just losers that name the bands they like to make friends. example: the appleseed cast. Course its a matter of opinion if you think they're any good or not (personally i think they can be a bit tedious) but there is this thing were if you like this band, you can hang about with person A and B, but you're not allowed to even look at greebo A and tinger C. Its fucking pathetic and i know for a fact that soon its gonna be more prominent within our blessed scene than people who love the music and the attitudes and not the bloody status.
Also i love Deftones to death. i don't give a paki if they're not cool enough for everyone.
"The Anti-Status League". sign the fuck up here.
sorry.
-
oh and bring back genuine people and who give a fuck about you as a person, not because you like The Appleseed Cast (i think its called friendship)
-
It's about time someone else realised all this shit too. Nice one Boggy/Ants. ^_^
-
I have a nightmare where I am djing and everyone is stood around drinking soft drinks with clipboards and rating everysong put on...never dancing...apart from to the brief silences between songs when they make up a name of a band and claim to be into them for years...
Seriously....I miss having a laugh with friends and not having to panic cos what I am playing is not 'cool'.Admit it...if I actually played Wheatus again youd love it.

I would [img]smile.gif[/img]

i wrote a ded long post, but it was shit so i narrowed it down to.......
FUCKING RIGHT, SPOT ON!!!
i thought people would be more likely to read it that way.
-
name one person who pretends to like appleseed cast. this is about the same viewpoint as that person who said people buy jazz albums to be obscure, its not about what the label of the music is, its wether you like it or not. i realy dont understand the point of these particular posts.
-
wait a minute i think i get this now

I don't think it's that they pretend to like it, I think it's the fact that they like it for the image liking such things portrays. I don't reckon half those people who are into emo and/or H/C are for real. Granted, some are. Take Stand for example. I reckon they've been doing what they do for long enough now to be taken seriously. A lot of them, especially some of the girls in the 'scene' come across as total social-climbers. Which is probably exactly what they are. So I just negated my own point. Shit. [img]redface.gif[/img]
Anyway, the fact remains thus:
Things are only cool for so long. Then you start to see who's REALLY into what genres...
-
-
i'm glad people agree with this
i'm NOT slating the appleseed cast or people who like them before anyone else asks (Al...)
Dave H - i reckon you got it 100% right. the bit on girls is a bit of a stereotype though, be fair.
Its all down to whether or not people actually go home, slap on some and listen to it. sounds stupidly simple, but that's all that apprieciating "our kind of music" needs.
I'm gonna shut up now because i'm basically telling people what they should do and in turn becoming a wanker. again, sorry.

Ok, ok...There are some right social-climbing male twats aswell... ^_^
-
Yeah its shocking to see how much a lot of people have hanged to try and 'out-hardcore' other people
-
HHH have it right - "You're clinging on to someone else's dreams to improve your status"
-
Someone please see the irony of that...
A quote from a hardcore song.
You all saw it right??
-
Kenna, I clearly just wanted to make people think I'm cool and 'hardcore'. I mean I am a girl and so clearly only listen to this kind of music to climb the social ladder and be in with the 'in' crowd
-
Whoa, whoa...Nat, I didn't mean you when I was on about the social climbers!! No way. I think you're pretty cool. You deserve respect for what you do, so you're not on my dislike list.
It's people like your ex drummer I can't stand. I think you know why... ^_^
-
No,I'm not on about hardcore fans at all...more the growing trend of people trying to outhardcore each other...I know you have always been into that stuff cos for 2 years you have been bringing me the cds to play,plus you will still talk to your 'non underground' friends....there are people that dont.
-
Can people stop being so vague and actually name names, cos frankly, i'm pretty unsure whether this actually goes on the extent that everyone seems to be going on about here.
Sure people sometimes latch on the cool bands or whatever to somehow validate their social position, but i don't think i've ever seen anyone ignore there dickhead mates cos they listen to Band X, i just think people like to rabbit on about how everyone is so fucking elitist when i don't think theres any sort of problem at all, as far as i see it, everyone in Grimsby is just as uncool as each other
-
erm..I could think of a couple of people wes
-
-
it wasn't actually wes...sorry..I can add you if you want me to?
-
Why do we need to name names????Surely that defeats the object...and true people dont fully turn their backs on friends cos of their musical tastes...but they certainly have less time for them and consider their opinions worthless and ill informed...and also arent open to making new friends...unless they are of a similar 'ilk'
A lot of us who have been around for a while now are at a stage where nothing matters except enjoying ourselves with people whos company we enjoy...rather than judging everything and everyone on a 'scene point' basis.
Conversations are so much more interesting when people are not discussing record labels for an hour or so (I'm not on about you or Lorgi...that was a progression)but there are a few people out there who will only listen to bands off label x and nothing else...thats fucking gay.
And people who dismiss music as shit...and do nothing but complain when it isnt aimed at them....just saying 'shit' when something popular comes on shows an unbelievable arrogance and brings down the mood for everyone else around you....Appreciate and consider your friends and aquaintances...that is what life is all about.
-
Whoa Nelly! I mean Nat, chill out sister. Your on the defensive a bit. I wasn't being malicious, you should know me better than that.
-
That fucking fat cunt with the ridiculous looking quiff. I hate that bastard! Yeah he may be a shit hot drummer but he's a fat bastard with a gay hairstyle! Social climbing bastard.
-
You are correct, Boggy. Well done!
-
woah, ken ken, I wasn't being serious you should know that by now [img]tongue.gif[/img]
-
this argument hacks me off, all you need to know is, do you still listen to the same muasic you did when u "joined the scene", or even, do you diss the music you used too listen too. mabee your opinion changed about the band but you used to listen to them so they must have got to you at some point. personally, i still like coalchamber, and no matter what people say i will always like them. the only new music i get into is of my own accord, i do take opinions and respect them but i buy cds i like, at the mo im gettin into drum and bass, stuff like that, tis ace! all of my own accord. i believe if you find out what you truly like, rather than what people tell you to like, you will ovr all have a better opinion of the music you listen to when you try to explain how good it is! god i make no scence!
