  • Why Nickelback and all other "pop-music bands" suck!

    A guy frequenting the Petrucci forum compiled and posted this clip.

    The left track is their song "Someday".
    The right track is their song "How you remind me".

    That is too funny. I knew there was a reason why I didn't like those guys. Of course, I could probably do that with some of Yngwie's stuff. At least he shreds, though. [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

      That's just bad, I even read an interview from them where the dude said he spent hours analyzing "This is how you remind me" and based every song on their new album after it because it was a hit.

        I guess you have to find a formula that works and stick with it. Hell, even Poison's songs sounded different. [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

            You can do that with a few Godsmack tunes if you cared to sit through all their material. Fans must get confused what album which tune is on as they all sound like they were recordede at the same time and often with the same riffs.

              This is why I hate AC/DC, every fucking song is the same, and they get more radio play than Van Halen. pisses me off [img]images/icons/mad.gif[/img]

                It's not just "pop music" though. A lot of music sounds very repetitious and monotonous to different people. You can find it in Country, Rock, Blues, Hair Metal, Death Metal, Nu Metal and on and on and on (don't even get me started on Rap and Hip-hop [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] ). Another point to consider is when the same person is writing and playing the tunes, they will probably tend to have varying degrees of similarities in each song or at least each of the same style of song. I'm not saying this is the case with everybody nor am I saying that any of these bands are the greatest or anything, just trying to bring out another viewpoint. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

                      <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Hers's the thing, I sell out in a heartbeat to do pop music for a couple of years. I could make my millions, and then use that money to never work again and create the music that I wanted to create. I'd even do the boy band thing if it made me enough money, quit after a while and relax. I could then spend the rest of my life doing nothing but playing my music. [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

                        <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I noticed that a while ago with them recycling too much. It's dull and predictable, but they probably think it's a good way to make easy money with a minnimum amount of effort.

                          [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] See, songwriting's easy. Once you've written one, you've pretty much written all of them.

                            I'm guessing they suck because they are successful in the music business and your not.
                            We must!
                            We must!
                            We must increase the bust!
                            The bigger the better!
                            The tighter the sweater!
                            The boys are counting on us!
