Members thecornman Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 Something I never understand is why people feel the need to trash one thing to somehow make their thing come across as superior? It just makes people look insecure in their beliefs. It just seems like a negative way to go about things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's absolutely correct, but that's also how people enjoy passing their time on this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kayd_mon Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 Is Adam Jones even an above average player? I don't know, man. One of my best friends loves Tool - I'm pretty sure they're his favorite band. The reason why he loves them - Danny Carey. Yeah, my friend is a drummer. Since he likes them so much, I gave the band a closer listen than I had before. I was never really into the band before. The drumming is excellent. The bass guitar tones are really great, and the playing is good, too. Maynard is a great singer. Adam Jones does his thing, but he is, at least for me, the least interesting part of the band. I don't mean that to insult the guy or his playing, but I don't pay a whole lot of attention to the guitar in that band. Overall, I like them, and I had a good time at their show. I get what you mean about some Tool fans - I have met some really douchey Tool fans. In fact, the guy sitting behind us at the show I saw was probably the biggest asshole I've ever met. That's saying a lot, since I live in Miami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skyforger Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 Girls:[video=youtube;3TV1FXjq844] Guys:[video=youtube;xer3Hh_SesI] Same sort of genre. Girly band is all girls, manly band is all men. I thought the disparity in the overall tone of each song was quite interesting and unexpected. Obviously each song on its own does not speak for their respective discographies, but eh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Alecto Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 Actually, that was surprisingly melodic: okay the cookie-monster-on-steroids vocals are harsh but there was a lot of melody in the guitar solo and underpinning the chorus. Don't know if anyone's mentioned Kittie yet, but what the hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kayd_mon Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 I thought about them, but didn't think to post a video. This band always makes me laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Skyforger Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 We are talking all-girl bands, not just female-fronted right? If it's the latter, Arch Enemy springs instantly to mind... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Doctor49 Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 what A whole thread about girly music and no mention of the girliest band of all NASHVILLE {censored} that Ruyter Suys is a real girly guitarist and, when she was there, Cory Parks was a little girly bassist. anyone mention hook heavy rock?

Members cale76 Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 Tool = mumbling over bass lines. Seriously, I don't understand the fascination with why everyone thinks, or at least used to think, that they were so cool. Danny Carey is a good drummer, and that's about where the talent stops in that band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soundcreation Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 I {censored}ING love both those songs. I can appreciate the pop brilliance of a song like Our Lips are Sealed and the cool odd time signatures in Schism. Too bad some of you are so closed minded. I don't really give a {censored} though....your loss...not mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BeanoBoy Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 that depends. the Beatles or Cream in mono are far better than their off-kilter stereo versions. Totally agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Wayne2 Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 A 6' tall 200 lb. dude who wants to get really silly on stage has a hard time doing it without looking threatening or ridiculous. Look at how much scorn is heaped on the hair bands. Guys who pull it off are just super talented or a little smaller (e.g Weird Al, Queen, EVH). It's probably just easier to go the shoegazer or sweaty rock star route and not worry about anyone hurting your feelings. On the other hand you have women like Juliana Hatfield who are naturally kind of surly but have cute voices and are trapped in bubbly-looking bodies.

Members RaVenCAD Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 Why do you think I only play music with women? I'm going to guess sexual orientation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members =JL= Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 I've never heard Tool before, I just thought they were a metal band. I heard all sorts in there, bits of Soft Machine, early King Crimson, in fact a lot of Canterbury scene cues in there. I quite liked it. Maybe as I'm a 6'3" biker you'd expect me to, but I also play in a half-female band and have a Hello Kitty Strat. Make of that what you will.

Members nicholai Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 I don't see that many differences between the sexes, certainly not enough to play only with girls (no women?). Maybe extend your range? When I was single I had a blind date with a girl who taught herself to shred almost to a Shawn Lane level yet played video games all day. My butcher graduated Cornell in biotech, kills pigs, and she is a mean {censored}ing metal bass player. Boh were cute not that it mattered. Anyways go back to talkin bout whatever. /if anyone is in Ithaca ny go to the piggery! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
