What do You listen to?


I was just browsing through the forums and ran across the "Most acheingly beautiful music" forum, and looked through all the responses and im somewhat confused.

Risking an all out brutal verbal assault by the 'Gon'ers, its becoming my impression that alot of the people here have a very limited taste in music.

It seems to be isolated around Classical, Contemporary, Soft Rock, and blues/jazz.

I would say Rock, but honestly, when i think of Rock i think of Metallica and GodSmack, not Jethro Tull or Grateful dead.
(i guess thats just an opinion though.

Now, Im hoping that people here have wider taste in music, after all, it comes in so many forms (even ones that older people refuse to recognize)

I mean hey, i gotta be honest, one of the best recordings ive heard was EMINEM's Marshal Mathers. Talk about a hell of a recording (musical content aside), it was crisp, clear, focused, and over all, one of the best recordings ive heard. (once again, im risking a brutal verbal assault.

So, Lets hear it for what types of music people listen to!
Just because i would rather Jam out to Metallica and drink beer instead of listening to Motzart with a fine wine does not mean my passion for music is any less!

What can i say? i dont listen to it. It feels somewhat formless and made up on the spot to me. Maybe i just need to look into it harder.

--Just a disclaimer, yes, i did list a couple satanic bands, however, i have no ties to the devil, The dark lord, the long walker, Cthulhu, Beezlebub, guy in red, the underlord, the silent beast, etc etc.. i do not slaughter goats or cast voodoo spells. I dont agree with the content but listen to it for its musical qualities which are suprisingly good, there is alot of heart and soul put into it, no puns intended.
hehehehehhehe

So who else has such a wide taste in music?
I own CD's of everything listed above!

lets hear it for music that others do not regfard as music!!!!!!!!

bwahahahahahahahaha
audiophanatik
Sean, wow I haven't thought about the Rez band for a long time. I was talking to a guy about Larry Norman last night but he never heard of Larry. He's into Apologetics and parody stuff like that.

Audiophanatik, didn't you start this thread so others could participate, or was it just so you could educate the ignorant among us??? Perhaps it is an age thing, but you can't make up definitions for words. 'Satanism' and lots of other things you bandied about already had meanings before you tried to assign one to them.

I question your taste in music, and understanding of the language. You cannot get mad because someone disagrees with you. You could be wrong, but then again, so could I. In this case Brian is much closer to the truth though.
Sean, im just going to let this drop. I feel no need to argue this point any further, if you ever feel like finding out the true origions of the "Satanic" religion, feel free. Utill then, im not going to concern myself with this issue. If you ever do decide to look into this someday, im confident that you will sit mack and say "I'll be damnded, he was right"
No pun intended
I have spent much more time researching this subject than the subject deserves and have to say that Sean is completely correct. His response is much more insiteful than could be expected from someone who has not studied or at least experienced some of the things he mentioned. Satanism is similar to children on a playground mocking something they do not like. It has no firm beliefs other than that Satan exists and the desire to mock 'Christianity.'

These are the same type of people who would bet against Tampa Bay in last years superbowl. News flash: the game is over!!!

Again, I add, you cannot add definitions to words that already have a meaning.

There is too much good music out there to get bogged down on the discussion of the mediocre. Everybody reach for some Otis Redding and feel the LOVE!

"Satanism is similar to children on a playground mocking something they do not like. It has no firm beliefs other

Exactly Nrchy, THATS BASICALLY WHAT IVE BEEN TRYING TO SAY.
-----------------Origional post by me-------------
Disclaimer, I do in fact know that SATANISM is not the worship of the devil, as commonly assumed
and believed. Satanism, if i remember correctly, is a believe in equalibrium, which entails the respect
and worship of both good and evil. The ying-Yang thing.
--------------------------------

i Never tried to give it a new definition,

It does not necessarily mean the worship of Satan, it DOES acknowledge the existance of satan, and god, but does not mean it is the "Worship" of satan. and in MOST satanic beliefs its all about balance of good and evil. yadda yadda yadda

For crying out loud can everybody just drop it?

You are all gonna make me burst a freakin vessle!

Lets get back to the music for christs sake, thats what we log on here for.
"For chirsts sake"? Audiop, you get all upset and you consistently post comments that are open for rebuttal! Maybe be more careful in your wording!
