 Posted: Fri Jul 02, 2004 11:39 pm Post subject: What are you listening to right now? [RULE: SEE page one] |
|
|
 |
|
What song are you currently listening to?
Song: U Can't Touch This
Artist: Hammer
Score: 8/10
Why: This is a catchy song and besides - HAMMERTIME!
EDIT: NEW RULES!
After discussion amongst the mods, we've decided to introduce a rule for this thread that simply requires some sort of comment about what you're listening to, why you are, or why you like it. I needn't be an essay or review, but just a few words to add substance to that thread.
Most of the good posters here do add something to their posts, but a lot of posts aren't about discussion, aren't adding anything to the thread, and are really just a form of spam.
Good posts:
| Sin Ogaris wrote: | Song: Superheist medley
Artist: Hayley Katoma (Superheist fan at their final gig at the Corner)
Album: NEW.RARE.LIVE.
Why: Great medley in my opinion, while her voice isn't amazing the new arrangements are refreshing and make the track interesting to listen to. |
| Frozencry wrote: | Song: It's Not Over
Artist: Chris Daughtry
It's actually a damned good song. Pretty good vocals. |
| Mitchacho wrote: | Song: Arizona
Artist: Kings of Leon
Album: Because of the Times
New album. Haven't heard much love from it on these boards so I'm going to spread it. I can't understand a word this guy sings but the music is unreal. |
Bad posts:
| El Taco wrote: | Song: Two Shoes
Artist: The Cat Empire
Album: Two Shoes |
| R3ND3R3D wrote: | Song: Here without you
Artist: 3 Doors Down
Album: Away from the sun |
| Vervain wrote: | Song: Cemetery Drive
Artist: My Chemical Romance
Album: Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge |
^ Especially bad. f*** dreadful band.
As I said, it needn't be much added, just something to give the post a point of being there. This was actually the format of posting when this thread was started, but it seems to have been lost along the way. Most of us listen to many many songs during the day, so if you're going to go to the effort of making a post here about a particular song you're listening to, we'd like you to give some indication of why you're posting about that particular song.
---------------------------------
EDIT 2:
ANOTHER NEW RULE
The mods would like to see a maximum of one "What I'm Listening To" post per day per person. Discussing songs/bands/etc. is still fine, but we don't wanna know what you're listening to every half hour. This rule will be strictly enforced. Anyone found taking advantage of this thread (i.e. spamming) will be dealt with accordingly. That may include warnings/fines/bans or Mitchacho taking your sister out on a date. Trust me, you want none of the above.

Kings of the Carnival Creation by Dimmu Borgir. Score? Meh, probably 6 or 7. Bloody fantastic song, largely thanks to Nick Barker's excellent drumming. Why? Because I hit random and it played.
