The future of music...

[King Jericho]

I've done it, I've created a new form of music, obviously derived from existing music, just....nu.
Nu Metal + Emo + Shit x Shit x10,000 - all the shit, cos Emo and Nu Metal = Shit anyways + Techno + crap and you get = Nu-emo.

Or as the crazy kids are calling it, Nemo. You to can be 'nemo', join today.

(A very JJ-esque thread, I know).

[Kane Knight]

You left out techno.

[King Jericho]

Damn, so I did. I'll add it in.

[JJ Moore]

Nah I wouldnt sink that low

[King Jericho]

Yeah well that's cos there is a small place in your heart for emo. :'(

[JJ Moore]

Your right, look - Ive turned emo.

Hair across face + Earring on lip = Emo

[King Jericho]

You left out the small penis.

[The Destroyer]

You look more like a member of the Misfits than anything else.

Now promise you'll never do that with your hair again. :|

[Danny Electric]

I forgot to laugh.
Sorry I'm not wailing like shitty Bruce Dickinson with a 50 minute guitar solo.

Baby steps.

First, you have a good voice. Stop singing like you're waiting for your balls to drop--They have--and actually use it.

Then we can talk about sounding like overrated metal singers without your capacity.

That whole thing was a slate against some metal. Sorry it was stereotypical but this whole thread is.

[Danny Electric]

It just pisses me off that people categorise a certain type or person with a certain genre of music and then all they do is slate it off. If you don't like it, don't go round saying how much you hate it, just don't talk about it.

Plus not everyone with a fringe and a lip piercing is an 'emo' kid.

[Gertner]

btw Techno = more popular then any form of music.


but according to Kane nobody listens to it

[The Destroyer]

Than any form of music? That's pushing it a bit, methinks.

Chill out man, I'm just having some fun.

If you wanna talk about catagorising, how about calling a form of music emo, meaning 'emotional', when every form of music means something to someone and is emotional. You can also catagorise certain people the way the dress to the music they like, you can do it with me, it happens, its just the way humans relate to things, i.e fringe, lip ring, tear = emo, the way some may relate baggy jeans and long hair to stoners or whatever.

Plus, emo music sucks balls and thats nothing against you.

I agree with that statement :y:

Sorry about the rant.

*hugs*
I'm allowed to think that at least.
Seriously I think the music in Iron Maiden is really good but I'm not a fan of Dickinson's.

[JJ Moore]

This thread has made me sad :( Emo sad! :(

[Kane Knight]

but according to Kane nobody listens to it First sentence=A lie.

Second sentence=A lie as well.

Wow, you're batting 0.000, skippy.

Not going to happen until someone invents a way for us to never have to hear about music we hate ad nausuem.

Or, for that matter, until people stop stereotyping themselves. The emo/punk crowd does it to them fucking selves, just like almost every other group. Not every country fan fucks their sister, not every Goth is suicidal, but you know what? The "culture" as a whole propagates it. The same goes with 99% of music fanbases.

[asphyXy]

I have long hair.

[Kane Knight]

That's it, Pixy is emo!

Actually, it's my theory that they're going to drop all the pretenses and call it angstcore. Angst sells. That's why Linkin Park can make a single out of every song on their record and have it sell. Generic, nonspecific, unthreatening angst. It's whitebread enough to meet the approval of inattentive parents, angsty enough for every "misunderstood" teen to run out and scream along...

[Gertner]

lol didn't you say that nobody remembers any "Dance" song"

I'll have to tell that to the hundreds of thousands of people that are going to be at an event that i'm going to next week.

and btw dance music is more popular than any form of music. Crazy as this is to you americans, there is a world outside of the U.S.A

I'll go check my atlas to doublecheck.

[The Destroyer]

It's more popular from your perspective, perhaps. If it was the most popular form of music then surely it'd be right up there at the top of the charts, which it blatantly isn't. In fact I'm not seeing very much dance music at all near the top of the Canadian charts...

[Danny Electric]

lol
Canadian charts

Prove it

Dance music isn't the most popular in the UK or the majority of Europe and bands like Busted were for some reason huge in Japan, so where's this huge market i'm missing out on? It's not africa or the antartic is it?

If your basing it on a dance festival, you could use the arguement that there are more rock festivals in the UK each year than dance:

Leeds
Reading
T in the Park
V
Glastonbury
Download

The mininum that one of those draw on 1 day is 40,000

On what are you basing the scale of dance music on? It's not record sales as that genre fails in compasion to cheesy pop in the UK and Country music out sells Dance in the US, so what are you basing you statement on?

check out WEMF in Orangeville Ontario. See how mnay hundreds of thousands show up. Dance music is not big cd wise, but shows/concert wise, the numbers are undenyable(sp?)

btw soccer isn't popular in Canada, therefore with your theory it isn't popular in the world.

THE U.S doesn't MEAN SHIT! liek I said if we were basing everything on the U.S, soccer wouldn't be recognized as the most popular. Check out ANY dance music festival. They draw in the hundreds of thousands. Dance music is more of the live performance then cd sellers.

Factor in South america were it's huge as well, Germnay, Holland, Spain, the list goes on and on.

This club I go to in Canada every Saturday packs in people by the thousands, even for dj's that are viewed as "less than "

Check out the Detroit Electronic Music Festival and see the numbers it draws. You can't deny it.

If you were to tally up the amount of people that went to rock festivals/concerts to the same tha went to Dance festivals and concerts i think you'll find the following

Rock > Dance

[Gertner]

also factor in the people whom go to dance clubs(not the ones that play some hip-ho-, some rap and some dance. Just purely dance.

Remember , you gotta factor in other places in the world, such as South American, Asia were it's huge
