i feel like you should maybe let this go a little longer like a week maybe incase someone just isn't in the mood, but maybe this is the type of thing not everyone can get into... remembering the what posters didn't like thread, i want to see some more posters from that and then go back to that thread and see what people like and didn't like. lol. i don't want to force people to do these though, but maybe people mostly just want to talk about drugs on this site and then post what they are listening to every now and then.
with how mal3volent was describing having to pick priorities and how i was thinking about how i felt at different points in my life i started doing 90's hard rock radio with like metal, grunge/alternative in my head, and thought "slipknot v.s. white zombie" would be a good one because they are both different emotions but they were both on the harder end of what was on. that would cast out one of the harder metal acts that probably wouldn't win in the first round... i honestly couldn't decide rob zombie is a lot of fun and got that kick ass pride thing going on a lot of rock doesn't have, and then slipknot is like emotionally fucked up type stuff where you kind of feel down and not really pride. i can get into both... i was trying to do some other ones and there were a ton of ties... it ended up being me trying to figure out how Bush who i only really love 4 of their radio hits wins the whole thing. like i was thinking smashing pumkins could win for me cause they have such a wide varied catalogue. like i can think of a ton of smashing songs i like and was thinking "bodies" by pumkins could hit as hard emotionally as "glysterine", but i really don't know. i felt with the slide guitar on "everything's zen" that's like the equivilent to a bunch of good smashing pumkins or nirvana songs. like i was thinking "how is nirvana not number one with how i love 'endless nameless and the acoustic album is perfect", but i dunno. still kind of felt bush after like an hour about thinking about this.. i don''t want to reveal too many of the choices i was going through cause i'm curious if you guys want to do this.
mal3volent and mysterier have a lot of stuff in the emo screamo and shoegaze that i don't think is the most popular from those scenes, but they are pretty good stuff for people to go through if they are bored. a lot of the posters probably aren't familiar with the genres. you guys could do a survey of those underground genres and then i could give a review about how that compares to what a lot of people were into in the early 2000's and what's popular on reddit. a lot of the same stuff that scenesters were listening to in early 2000's and late 90's is still going pretty strong on the reddit community today. i dunno. i'd definitely do you guys choices with out giving my opinion on what they should be and then give my other emo favorites when it's over if you guys missed any... anways. had some fun with this, but don't want to pressure anyone to have to think about these and then count them up. but since you guys thought of it, it's pretty fun.
also realizing how i answered some of the classic rock stuff might be confusing, so i'll have to reeddit my picks. like i was saying "when i was a kid, i'd pick this, but as an adult i choose this" doesn't really let you know what i chose, so i'll go back and edit that for whenever you do choose to tally this up. but doesn't seem like enough votes to me like this kind of failed. i guess not total failure cause a few posters had fun with it.
