I feel ripped off... anyway, their music is just technical noise with no emotion, tells no story etc... it's not really music... I am sure many of you will celebrate that aspect of it and declare it to be the future of music... perhaps I am just an old fogey that doesn't understand the new kids music.... Ironically, I am glad that music like that exists, and that people go listen to it... it just seems like kind of artsy fartsy experimental crap designed solely to disturb and irritate the listener, and why would anyone really want to listen to that? I have heard the same type of thing before in the past at performance art galleries where they like bang on pots and pans and people with no musical ability are like sawing wood and bashing pieces of metal while naked and covered in body paint etc... that's much more entertaining that watching 2 guys with their heads down barely move on stage.... --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
