Music!

Almost everyone I know listens to music. Some kind of music.My family,we always have music playing at home, at least when my dad's home. When I was younger,it was classical,piano and violin masterpieces.Now? Now WE play the music: Sheila (my sister) and me. Thankfully we share a similar taste in music (maybe because she heavily infuenced my tase) so not too many arguments on whose playlist is on.But that is NOW.

THEN?

In sixth,or eighth standard,I was inflicted with Backstreet Boys. Not a lot of BSB.Just one cassette.I was forced to listen to it day after day,month after month until the casstete itself decided that enough was enough and committed suicide.
A few months ago, Sheila downloaded a song called "which Backstreet Boy is gay?" which has a line that goes : our main fans are 12 year old girls who think we're cute..or something like that.I can still remember every word of those peurile,disgusting lyrics,which,now to think of it,make next to no sense,unless you're a little on the queer side or are a twelve year girl.
Yes, I know its just a phase,but excuse me??it was one LONG phase.Its very sad.

Sheila still hasn't apologised.


Now almost everyday I listen to atleast one death-metal track,at my friend's house. Not out of any desire of mine,believe me.Those songs are basically noise under the guise of "symphonic black metal" or some allied shit. You wouldn't believe the number of catergories noise is divided into : acid metal, death-metal,freak metal,plain old WIERD metal.Add some really sick metal to that,and you have a whole category of sound you had rather not approach except when armed with earplugs,and even then only when absoluely necessary. Personally I'd object to metal even if I was stone deaf.Come on, if Beethoven wrote his best music after he had gone deaf,surely these morons can attempt something approaching music.Even if they have negative IQs,they still have the God-given gift of hearing. Atleast,they claim to.
My friend claims that you actually need to get USED to metal. You're supposed to accquire a taste for it.You have to keep listening and eventually you will see the beauty in it. I ask you!!
You'd think these so called 'artistes' atleast make up for their obvious lack of talent with some decent lyrics,wouldn't you?

But no! They insist on singing Sicko stuff,most of it Antichrist.Oh,yeah,don't even go anywhere near those videos,unless you're seriously into sado-maschoism and suffer from an unpronounceable and criminally dangerous brain disorder. How can they look their mothers in the eye,I wonder.

Clean up music!



DEATH TO DEATH METAL!


My opinions on tamil film music,I shall keep to myself,not wishing to be TOO explicit in a public forum.

A.R. Rahman, however, is pure genius.
