My friends think any music with screaming is Slipknot

[Generator86]

Shit, I'd never assume that technicality equals creativity and appreciation of one's craft. I understand that Rush is fabulous when it comes to knowing one's instruments, but I still think that they suck shit when it comes to songwriting. Conversely, the Misfits were a dearth of talent when it came to knowing their instruments, but I still enjoy a bunch of their songs.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that like what you like. Don't be judgmental under the criterion of (a) my favourite band can play triple reverse dweeb barre chords and your's can't, or (b) my favourite band doesn't even know what triple reverse dweeb barre chords are, so your bestest band are nothing but sellouts.

Like what you like. Hate what you hate. Don't let anyone else's opinions matter one whit. I've now hit 100 posts, and only 97 of them were totally and utterly useless (including this one).

HUZZAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
