Aug 9, 2008 - What kind of music is this anyway! Poor production, no real beat to it, Gloomy, depressing, song and video was made in one day probably! Maybe these guys were the opening act for some little hick town festival. Yeah id much rather hear Fred Dursts voice over this crude and unusual music! At least the real Crazytown has some melody to it! Isnt that what music is about? Melody?

Aug 9, 2008 - The way you typecast and stereotype millions of people into 1 pile of "MOTHERFUCKERS' pretty much explains away how 1-dimensional your thought process is. The radio plays some good music, but it's played into the ground. Zeppelin, Pearl Jam, are good bands, but I don't need to hear the same 5 songs everyday for 20 years. Try expanding your horizons beyond "U VS ME" and get a little bit more musically intelligent, because you seem to like corny cliche music thats marketed to TEENAGERS.
FuckingStanz Says:
Aug 9, 2008 - Haha. Fred Durst. Dude, you're a douchebag in every sense of the word. Velocity Girl is not the greatest example of indie, this song doesn't do that much for me, but Limp Bizkit took their influence from early 90s grunge/alternative and old school rap. All of that is indie. So kill yourself.
FuckingStanz Says:
Aug 9, 2008 - I guess you're right though. Ashlee Simpson and the Backstreet Boys are musical geniuses and deserve our respect. They were marketed well, so they are musically talented by default THANK YOU FOR YOUR WISDOM
VanCityKyle Says:
Aug 10, 2008 - Oh compared to this shit, yeah they are geniuses, i never fucking said that now did i? Just stop being such a close minded fuck and open your ears to everything! Hey i like corny rock like Bizkit and Crazytown. I also like The Rolling Stones and The White Stripes, Fleetwoood Mac, If it sounds good i will listen to it! Just stop being so close minded! I mean if your music is so good, then why hasnt anyone signed you? why? People make music for people to hear.
VanCityKyle Says:
Aug 10, 2008 - So far nobody is buying your albums! Never even heard of this shit outside of Youtube! Yeah my favorite artists are Eminem, Coldplay, U2, John Mayer, is there anything wrong with that!
FuckingStanz Says:
Aug 10, 2008 - Who the hell says I make albums? You're so reactionary. It's ironic that you say "open your ears to everything" when you're the one that's shut off and refuses to acknowledge anything outside the mainstream whereas I embrace music from any corner, including the mainstream. It's not my fault that the percentage of phony non-musical shite in the mainstream is considerably higher than that of outside.
FuckingStanz Says:
Aug 10, 2008 - You are just kind of beyond hope. You are so far from being "enlightened". You strike me as a real "average Joe" that is scared of what he doesn't understand. This single video/song does not embody indie music. It's ridiculously diverse. All of the mainstreams ideas came from either underground music or classic/old music from back when the mainstream actually embraced real ARTISTS up until the 80s or so when novelty commercialized shit started to dominate, s'why the underground exists
FuckingStanz Says:
Aug 10, 2008 - It's funny that you're so proud of Eminem, Coldplay, U2 and John Mayer as examples of commercial music, failing to realize that they themsleves do not agree with your logic. They all would tell that a large majority of what influenced them and what they listen to on their spare time is a lot of obscure music. U2, for instance, worships Joy Division. Coldplay were influenced by Jeff Buckley. Eminem would list countless underground rappers.
VanCityKyle Says:
Aug 10, 2008 - Oh give me break, thats just another cliche cop out! If a song is catchy and has a good beat and its a good song than who the fuck cares. Listen if you have a problem with Maintstreem America than go live in a fucking cave. "Close Minded Fucks"......... Just shut up and deal with it! Im so beyond hope, yeah right!
VanCityKyle Says:
Aug 10, 2008 - Hey news flash, i listen to Jeff Buckley and Joy Division. They werent/arent that underground! Yeah but U2 worshiped the Stones too. And Coldplay worshiped the Beatles and Oasis. Eminem also was into 2pac and Biggie! Oh and i never said that underground is all negative, but the reason alot of these acts are underground is because there music isnt on a certain level yet. You just keep on opening one can of worms after another! Theres nothing you can say to prove me wrong. im shaming you to death.
FuckingStanz Says:
Aug 10, 2008 - You've got it wrong. It has nothing to do with being "on a certain level." Lmfao. You are so clueless to how things work. It's marketability. When you're predominately marketing faux-coolness to predominately to kids, sheer quality of music is less than important. A song also has to fit into the verse chorus verse structure, and nothing that goes over the heads average Joe. You see, mainstream music always takes in the lowest common denominator. It has to be as watered down as possible.
FuckingStanz Says:
Aug 10, 2008 - If you honestly are 'black and white' or 1-dimensional to believe all mainstream music is on "another level of greatness", I sincerely hope you aren't looking for a career in music or considering breeding. A lot of incredibly technically, melodically, dissonant, pure, artistic, music doesn't make it on the radio for all those reasons - it's too complicated for mass audiences. They just wanna hear an average rock song. Recycled ideas. Predictability. Something that they will eat.
VanCityKyle Says:
Aug 10, 2008 - You have no taste then! If you think for one second that U2, Rolling Stones, Eminem, Coldplay David Bowie, The Kilers, John Mayer, Led Zepplin arent on another level of greatness than you are sadly mistaken!--Hey heres a thought(IM SERIOUS) Name a few underground bands that i can look up on youtube, and i will tell you my opinion. I mean hey maybe the music you like so much is really good and has depth! Im not kidding i would love for you to name a band or two that you like.U Might be surprised.
FuckingStanz Says:
Aug 10, 2008 - The Killers are a generic new wave clone. They are all style, no substance. Interpol shit all over them.
VanCityKyle Says:
Aug 10, 2008 - Interpol are a great band, i will never, never deny that! But i like the Killers even better! And have you heard Sam's Town! That album had substance written all over it! Man how can you put down the Killers!

Aug 10, 2008 - It is MONEY that caters to the lowest common denominator. An unfettered (i.e. without motive of material gain) creation of art is the ultimate act of pure individuality, and per force will not recieve popular acclaim as one man differs from another in personality/likes/dislikes/perception and understanding in greater degree than one species biologically differs from another. The audience will of necessity be more focused and communal.
paleyellowrainbow2 Says:
Aug 10, 2008 - Anything that recieves popular acclaim is usually bereft of challenge (techinical/emotional/intellectual) to the listener and should be regarded as suspect of being the product of a painstaking calculated effort to conform to psycho-aural marketing studies conducted by the music industry. I agree with the substance of you comment - why do you not mention consonance?

Aug 9, 2008 - Yeah you motherfucking indie fuckers are the worst man! Your the biggest snobs and prudes out there! Even if you guys like a song on the radio you wont admit it because your on "A DIFFERENT LEVEL", "AND YOUR IN TUNE WITH WHATS NOT SELLING OUT" you are the biggest crocks of shit out there! Prudes, Snobs and gloomers. Listen go sit in your moms basement and throw a party for your indie friends.And yes i know almost every band starts out indie.some of them are smart enough to appeal to the masses
