Embarrassing bands?

Prince Phaeral · 07-17-2007, 02:54 PM

Well, we all have our guilty pleasures. Often music-wise. So, here's where you come out and admit to liking a band or artist you normally wouldn't mention. I have a few, well...

1. Metallica. As in...Load-through-Reload. I'll admit liking Master of Puppets to anyone.

2. My Chemical Romance. Well, I just hear them bashed enough at school that I usually don't bring them up.

3. Evanescence. Only because so many people hate them. I actually shouldn't have listed this, because I am an open Ev fan. They happen to be tied with Nightwish for first place in my book.

Wow, nothing else is coming to mind. I know for a fact that I have more.

But I guess I'll make Justin Timberlake my last addition.

Colin Greenwood · 07-17-2007, 03:36 PM

I don't have any that I hide. If somebody makes fun of me for my music tastes just because I have one artist that they don't like, I say "**** you."

I CANT STAND NO DOUBT THEY'RE SO ANNOYING!

^That's not the point of this topic - read what his post is actually saying.

Balrog · 07-22-2007, 10:50 PM

^^ I like No Doubt.

Point of topic.

ShyGuy727 · 07-22-2007, 11:13 PM

No Doubt was my favorite band for a very long time (till Streetlight Manifesto came around).

I'm not really ashamed about liking any band, Good Charlotte (who I used to HATE) would be the closest thing for me, it's fun when their old singles come on the radio at work and the "The River" is a pretty solid song with some meaningful lyrics.

***ZeldaGirl*** · 07-22-2007, 11:16 PM

Justin Timberlake, for me (though, I only really like SexyBack).

Jigsaw · 07-22-2007, 11:24 PM

Hmm, guilty pleasures... I suppose I will go ahead and admit there is some AFI I like. I also enjoy a couple of Killswitch Engage songs, but since nobody's heard of them, I have no idea why I'd hide liking their non-screamo songs.

Prince Phaeral · 07-22-2007, 11:27 PM

^Everyone I know's heard of Killswitch Engage, dahlin'.

Jigsaw · 07-22-2007, 11:29 PM

But nobody I know has. That was my point.

Balrog · 07-22-2007, 11:54 PM

I like this one song, can't remember who it was from... N-Sync or Backstreet Boys... but it goes like this: "BOW-NOW-NOW-NOW-NOW-NOW-NOW, BOW-NOW-NOW-NOW-NOW-NOW-NOW, WE'VE GOT IT GOING IN OUR PANTS!" or something like that. I completely made up the last bit.

I listened to it when I was little. It has memories.

***CaptHayfever*** · 07-23-2007, 01:31 PM

How about parts of bands? Because Davy Jones is embarrassing, but Mike, Micky, & Peter totally rock.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Prince Phaeral · 07-23-2007, 01:48 PM

I suppose that works, too.

DJ Ryan · 07-23-2007, 02:46 PM

Can I admit that I like Sean Kingston?

Adam West · 07-23-2007, 02:50 PM

I like the Monkees.

Kain Highwind · 07-23-2007, 05:01 PM

...

I do like Cat Stevens. Also Gordan Lightfoot.

***CaptHayfever*** · 07-24-2007, 01:29 AM

^^I love the Monkees, but as I pointed out, only 1/4 of them are embarrassing.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

MASALOBOTOMY · 07-25-2007, 08:59 PM

I like Queen, and apperently at my school if you like Queen, you suck and need to listen to better music, which annoys me beyond my limits.

**Kargath** · 07-25-2007, 09:06 PM

The first CD I ever owned was the Spice Girls.

It's long-gone now, but still...

Colin Greenwood · 07-25-2007, 09:09 PM

^^ That's what people at my school think of every band I listen to.
