SleepyFroggy Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Country music has cool uses of scales though. Even though they seem to limit which ones they use in the genre. IMO, hiphop has some of the best lyrics I've ever seen. Depends on who you are though.. Tastes will conflict. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SleepyFroggy Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 in other news, death metal. it's terrible. Yeah.. I've never been able to get my ears around that. Amazing what some of them can do in standard tuning though. At least some of it gave doom a few neat songs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necrotic Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 It's has boring instrumentation (aside from what Neko posted) with boring lyrics I can't relate to because I'm not a bumpkin. But some of it's a'ight. For similar reasons I can understand someone not liking death metal for thinking it's wankery and I could totally understand if someone can't relate to the lyrics because said person is a whiny sissy little girl who can't handle harshness and manly things.

Death metal is basically what the sheltered suburban kids think manliness is On a slightly more serious note, Country is probably more "harsh" than Death Metal is lyrically. Some Death Metal lyricists are pretty damn clever, so they win in that department, but that doesn't make them anymore hardcore than some Country dude singing about his wife.

Schwaltzvald Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I listen to the local country station around where I live whenever I clean-shave or shape up the beard & stache. Probably the only time really as it serves as white noise for me considering late night or early morning it can be real quiet; or at least till the house cat meows at my presence and just seems content watching me shave. tl;dr - I'm indifferent to country music.

Nick Hyral Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Some country is okay. Alot of it though just drives me nuts.. it's always about a dog dying.. a wife walking out.. a man drinking away his problems as he sings about how he just wouldn't be a country boy if he didn't have a pick up truck.. After while I've started to believe they're all singing about the same dog. they were all left by the same woman that really gets around. And they all frequent the same bar.

Brushfire Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Come to think of it, the only country I liked was in The Most Unwanted Song. http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/listening_post/files/KomarMelamid_The-Most-UnwantedSong.mp3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
