: ...it doesn't even warrant a comment by me.
That's too bad, maybe you should try it again. It can be immenselt enjoyable.
:..and did I mention liking Lifehouse? I vaguely remember hearing a song by them, and I wouldn't consider that grunge.
"Hanging By A Moment" is a perfect example of a Grunge Ballad. New-age Grunge, granted, but still grunge.
: But, to me, that's the whole appeal of grunge. No one likes it anymore. That's why I like it.
That's fine that you like it, but I find it strange that you like it BECAUSE no one else like it... Sounds alot like faux-rebel posturing to me...
: The only thing I bands I like these days that are still around are TOOL, Deftones, Stone Temple Pilots, A Perfect Circle, Godsmack, and Incubus(but now they're starting to be on MTV, which fuckin sucks)
My opinion (as if you care): Tool- sucks, Deftones- not my cup o tea, but I respect 'em, STP- they are just okay, APC- see tool, Godsmack- see tool, Incubus- try to be different, but are perpetually the same
: I only hope this new band with Chris Cornell and Rage Against the Machine can bring a much needed salvation from this perpetual music hell.
Eh, if Spears and *NSync are doin' what they wanna do, all the power to 'em... I actually prefer monothemed pop-gloryhounds to genre-jumping-to-be-hip "sell-outs" (I dont' like this term, but it applies here) like Gwen Stefani.
Sincerely,
St.Cyril.
