balti-pie Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Despite having far too much time for experimental psych rock like the Flaming Lips (new album today! Woop!) I absolutely fucking hate Pink Floyd and will not willingly sit in a room while their drivel is being played. Their best song is now a Scissor Sisters song, and the only thing of theirs I own is the Flaming Lips cover album of DSOTM (and I don’t particularly like that anyways). If any of em played at Glastonbury - any of em, but particularly Gilmour - I’d turn up and roundly abuse the crowd for supporting that toss. Pink Floyd. Bleh.

Troop Dogg Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 This is one of the greatest songs of all time. FACT. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll never be gripped by a great new album in the same way that I would have in my teens and early twenties, irrespective of the quality of it. I often think I’m getting too old for gigs/festivals now I’m settling into my 40’s as well, but the top and bottom is that I still have more fun at them then anywhere else on this planet!! I know what you mean, I'm approaching 40, am married with kids and am certainly much less interested in what's "cool" these days. I find myself slipping into the comfort of Absolute Radio and listening mostly to the stuff I enjoyed when I was younger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattymooz Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 I love Muse (I just force my self to believe they stopped making music after Black Holes & Revelations). I don't care how many times I see them live, they are always great fun. On the other hand I don't 'get' radiohead. Its partly I think that I find their discog so daunting, but Ive tried In Rainbows and OK Computer a couple times and it has never really clicked with me (and yes I know Muse are basically just "RadioheadLite").

Given his back catalogue, a HL&tN set should be a good time, but I gather it's not. I saw him live 20 years ago, met him aswell, great gig. Nice fella too. Hes deaf or something now.

Gnomicide Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 I just heard a song I didn't know and was enjoying it enough to Shazam it to see who it was. Ed Sheeran. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a thing against people wearing bright white trousers, because I think it's dangerous, and that put me off listening to their music (imagine how I felt at this years Glastonbury). Have you never been in a school playground at pickup time in Summer? These and Birkenstocks are mandatory. I like Liberty X and 'Just a little'. There, I said it. I also think Wagner is overrated. Long shit, doesn't even fit on one album. Except the start of the Ride of the Valkyries, that's good. That was the ring tone of an ex girlfriend.

rubick Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 I've been going to clubs/raves/electronica gigs for almost 30 years and I really, really couldn't give a horse's flying fuck about Daft Punk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark Posted July 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Had a cursory check of Rolling Stone's list of top albums of all time. Of the Top 20 there are 12 I've never listened to: Pet Sounds Revolver Highway 61 Revisited Exile on Main Street Blonde on Blonde The Sun Sessions Kind of Blue The Velvet Underground Are You Experienced?

bombfrog Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 I have too many to list, in all categories, but I'll give it a go. * Never really listened to David Bowie before he died, just didn't get him. * Don't really like Radiohead since their first album and didn't watch their Pyramid set, same with Rolling Stones, I went to watch Example on the Other Stage instead. * Pink Floyd can get in the bin. * I watched the first 10 or so series of X Factor and enjoyed it. * I can recite all the words to Ice Ice Baby in well under a minute. * I listen to Radio 1 most days and still love lots of modern pop music, including stuff like Arianne Grande and Camilla Cabello. * I listened to a bit of Simply Red on Spotify the other day and enjoyed it (the early stuff obvs.) I like lots of cool stuff too, I promise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daft Punk hold a special place in my heart. No idea on what the song was but I beat a step daughter in a Wii dance competition, whilst sitting down. She wasn't happy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
