Unforgivable musical crimes
 
I'm sure we've had this thread before, but I was just listening to something and was reminded of "Glice's unforgivable musical crimes #1 - Children's choirs".

Also, moustaches in rock.

Also, bass solos outside of The Who's 'My generation'

Also, liking/ being Frank Zappa.

Obviously, this is by no means exhaustive. Why not join in?

Apparently, the last thread sank like a turd in a swimming pool.

Might as well get it out of the way early:

Disney Channel. Enough said.

Glice 08.18.2009 12:01 PM

Ah yes, 'music for children'. Kids do not have shit for ears, so quite why they apparently deserve this I have no idea.

The only problem with this is that there's been a lot of genuinely great pop come out of some fairly dire situations. Who of us hasn't, at some point, needed the sage advice of 'getcha head in the game'?

Ah yes, Phish.

I was thinking of this thread as more of an opportunity to slag off people with rainbow coloured guitar straps more than 'slag off bands you don't like'. But then, Phish really are that criminal.

Totally, totally agreed.

and what I hate most..

 

and this includes ALL you fucking terrible Sublimabee bands from Long Beach that I have to see open for every local reggae show I go too including

Zen Robbi
The Breddrens Daddys
Fortunate Youth
Katchafire

and all you other fucking sucky fucking bands. you suck get over you lame asses!

Glice 08.18.2009 12:37 PM

Right. Again though, they're not so much criminal as just shit things. I mean, the checkered converse trainers/ fat, bald singer combo [outside of bad manners] - that's criminal.

gualbert 08.18.2009 12:42 PM

Greg Norton looks fine.

Glice 08.18.2009 12:44 PM

No no - his output might be fine (I'd disagree, but it's very much a moot point) but the moustache is shit. Even by moustache standards, it's shit. Even by Hitler's standards, that's a shit moustache.

notyourfiend 08.18.2009 12:46 PM

These guys are seriously criminal. And if you aren't convinced, remember when they dumped 800 lbs of poop on a boatload of tourists?


 


 


Plus, there are too many tattoos of that stupid-looking icon.

PAULYBEE2656 08.18.2009 12:47 PM

kids love kids pop so that usurps it being criminal....

the boo radleys recording and releasing wake up boo....
coldplays continued existence
the remastering of bleach
zwan and everything that sailed in her...shame on you pajo
britteny spears "womaniser" possibly the worst song ever committed to a cd/mp3/vinyl etc
rumours of a pavement reunion minus gary young
gary young being ousted from pavement
gary youngs drumming
bowies china girl

I think every post should begin with "Also,"

Also, endless guitar solos (say 5+ minutes)

Unless those guitar solos can otherwise be classified as "noise solos."

But even then, it's almost always obnoxious when there is only one instrument in the foreground for such a long period of time.

Glice 08.18.2009 01:08 PM

Can I play the Les Rallizes Dénudes exemption card?

Glice 08.18.2009 01:09 PM

Also, VU sunglasses in the 21-century. You are neither a young Lou Reed nor in the Ramones. Fuck off. This includes Lou Reed.

I don't know them that well, but I like what I've heard of them :-)

You know, shockingly enough, just because I liked one show with cute children doesn't mean I own a daisy guitar. Or a Hello Kitty one. I'm happy with my fender, thanksverymuch.

:-D

However yes, I agree, those guitars are obnoxious looking. More so, I am skeptical of their quality. But as a donation, you take what you can get.

Satan 08.18.2009 01:19 PM

they're made to be smashed.

kind of like children.

This, combined with a pair of Jeremy Clarkson shoes and a nauseating taste in Top Shop rock.

I never said anything about you. At all.

The Replacements' dumping of Bob Stinson and all of their output post- said dumping.

demonrail666 08.18.2009 02:27 PM

that moment when a once decent rock band decide that they're now massive enough to employ three black women to stand at the side of the stage and sing harmonies for them.

overly mobile session bassists

DeadDiscoDildo 08.18.2009 02:41 PM

This thread is a musical crime. Everything has it's place. Everyone has their place. Everything is nothing. You are shit.
