What music do you like... ?

I can handle a couple songs from them but I'd never, ever, ever... Pay to see them live. I'll stick to having my boyfriend pick out the really heavy metal concerts and buying me earplugs He wants to take me to one when I go see him, which would be my first concert. Lol, he would probably smash my subwoofer if he heard me listen to afi.

Go see fear factory, rather heavy in parts lovely and melodic in others

I like that. Sounds so familiar even though they aren't in my collection.

I am one of those that is caught between two "worlds" if you will. Old enough to appreciate the Grateful Dead, Led Zepplin, and Pink Floyd but young enough to like rock bands of the 90's and today. All this talk of live bands reminds me...

One band I prefer live over studio is the Grateful Dead. Been to 7 concerts starting in the late 1980's and ending 2 months before Jerry Garcia's death.

Any diehard fan will tell you, "the dead are better live" Seriously, it's true. Not only that, the entire concert experience and camping out with "deadheads" was something very special. My little brother, born in 1975 experienced only 2 concerts in his teens. He now has "deady bears" tatooed on his body. That's how special the experience was. Where else can you see naked midgets tatooed from head to toe, and a funeral service for a case of beer bottles that fell off of a truck onto the street? How about viewing a distant wildfire in the hills of Oregon (Autzen stadium) while the dead play "fire on the mountain" followed by a sit by a muddy river while playing the dead's song "black muddy river", and that was just one night. I could go on but I had better not. It seriously changed our lives for the better.

One of the most remarkable things is the fans. The experience. Even if the dead played lousy.. fans are so friendly and create an atmosphere of brotherly love that just can't be beat. They could make the best time possible and make getting swept away by a flood or fire, a pleasant experience. fans and followers of the tours were from age 60 on down to 20!

Not their best song, but most people are familiar with "Touch of Grey"

My boyfriend introduced me to Fear Factory early in our relationship because I like really heavy industrial music, too. He calls it "stupid hard techno" But, you get the idea And since I like metal its like heavy industrial and metal mashed up. Makes my ears explode with happiness. I personally love FF, I don't think I dislike any of their songs. It took me a while to get used to them but I love heavy music that nearly breaks our windows when you turn the bass up I just cant handle it loud for too long haha.

Oh well allow me to feed your addiction. I mean, I already got you to buy Tesla AND more wonderful garter snakes 'How can you resist?'

But hey, if you like Tesla maybe you'll like this too. You'll have to click the link. Can't embed.

I know, it's "old fart" music to many of you. To me it was yesterday.

OK, this post doesn't really fit well into other threads but you gotta see this. Just goes to prove that a talented person in a studio with computers can make anyone a star. They don't need to be musically talented or even know how to sing.

In order to prove the point, you first have to watch this news clip. This guy on the news was made famous on youtube by his own "character" (Dumb ghetto sterotype). Everyone got a kick out of this guy and it went viral on youtube.



Then some talented guys took that news clip and "autotuned" it and this is why I'm posting it here. This is music. they turned that dumb ghetto type a dude into a star! I mean, you have to see it. I can't explain it. This is amazing. I actually like this song, what I am I saying? track is now available on itunes and it is selling. Amazing!



And that one spawned a punk rock version of the same song that isn't bad either!

Always found that every album by Lily Allen has something fun and different on it. This particular song is different from what I expect from her with a little bit of what I do expect. this sounds a little different for her and i like it. some of the music in it reminds me of a sound I first heard by coldplay.



A good track by coldplay:



Another good one:

I love the bed intruder autotune. It's pretty catchy. The people who made it are really talented. I like their other autotunes too
