a) pop isn't necessarily a BAD thing. it's not inherently bad. b) orbital isn't pop. they may be dance music, but they're not pop. in sides has no catchy hooks or easy mind-numbing singalong choruses. get over it. they're famous now. deal with it. c) pop? dmx krew is mind numbing, bubblegum, pop bullshit. a lot of "underground" music is pop. now, i didn't mean to go off on a anti-dmx rant and some pop music can be great. i consider a lot of cylob's stuff to be "pop" music. corny, but wonderful melodies. light-hearted songs. a good amount of rephlex releases are pop. albeit, distorted and odd, but pop. and i love cylob, by the way. that wasn't a slag. i hope i made sense. i'm really tired ..... np. merzbow 'eat beat eat #1' (this, by the way, is not pop) ------------------------------------------------- wells oliver : s0ewoliv@titan.vcu.edu "perhaps all pleasure is relief" : w.s.b. -------------------------------------------------
