Okay so a while back i found this media player called [urlhttp://www.floola.com/modules/wiwimod/]Floola[/url]. Its a really small free download, its just a .exe so you can even keep it on your ipod or whatever for convenience of transferring music where ever you have a computer and a cable.. I've really Begin to like it for its simplicity. I found thins new thing where you can export your Music (from MP3 players or w/e) In to a HTML document. I thought that it might be intresting to post our HTML doc to see that variety, and to boast about how much more music we have then other people lol.


So go ahead.. what are you waiting for.

I know this ain't a request line, but think you can upload the stephen colbert audiobook to megaupload.com or something?

Needs more jungle

Edit: Also I hate when people post their playlists because it makes it harder to find illegal downloads

all of the metal you had in your collection was awful. that's what he meant.

and your ayreon stuff said aryeon so yeah

my list is a Word Document of around 14 pages

here's a bette rone withotu individual files, although subfolders got fucked http://www.gamingw.net/pubaccess/57278/dirs_1.txt

also yeah that's a lot of really bad metal and not much else.

OKAY.......I get that you guys don't like it but I'd like you to define BAD metal, Its all personally preference and what you Think is bad other like. Ill have to clarify that I love European Power/thrash metal...etc.

well power and thrash metal tends to be bad metal so.

I mean someone can prefer ska but it's still bad punk.

Yes In your opinion, you idiot. Your not being reasonable nor making any sense your stating your opinion as if its a fact, which it isn't its a fucking opinion. This topic wasn't made to insult other people taste in music.

"Please elaborate bolded text. In a manner that isn't an opinion please."

Still waiting for Steel's reply.

I'll edit this post to contain my album collection later today, but it's mostly made up of bad metal and ridiculous prog. Like Ayreon.

Same and same. Just look at my sig.

Why is this kind of music ridiculous? I find it absolutely sublime.

I've always thought that's a bullshit excuse. Yeah, all music is subjective. But you should be able to justify your tastes. Wash Cycle is more of a technical guy. I think it's a shame, but at least I get that! I don't like it when people just say HEH...IT SUCKS...at least elaborate slightly!

oh come on.

its fucking speed and power metal.

do I really...do I really have to explain THIS? of all things? THIS?

that works with MUSIC, not with this shit.

but fine, here you go you dorks.

speed and power metal are pretty much regarded as the joke of the music industry. even prog artists steer away from these guys. there is a reason for this. it is because there is exactly zero redeeming factor with this shit.

so let's break it down.

lyrically, they are beyond poor. the average set of Hammerfall lyrics belongs on a Magic the Gathering card, not in a fucking song.

We are riding for the battle field in force tonight
Fury of the darkest evil cry for war
Far beyond the boundaries of hell and starlight
On the road to lands unknown forever more

seriously? are you fucking kidding me? are you fucking five years old that they get to treat you with this shit? you know who can actually do lyrics about dragons and shit like that without sounding completely ridiculous? anyone else. there's this weird let that it's just oh so goofy so it's okay to like this kind of shit, but for fuck's sake, look at prog. here's a song about a carnival made by aliens.

Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends
We're so glad you could attend, come inside, come inside
There behind a glass stands a real blade of grass
Be careful as you pass, move along, move along

look at all those internal rhymes. the song itself is fast paced and it doesn't include bullshit adjectives about storms and shit. and hey, read those lyrics. a real blade of grass? from the start guess what you've learned; something really fucked up has happened to earth where a blade of grass can be an attraction. there's not a single wasted line here.

heres one about a Puerto Rican guy in line with Slippermen to be castrated. like I said, they can be on weird and strange subjects.

Understand Rael, it's the end of your tail.
"Don't delay, dock the dick!"
I watch his countdown timer tick......

aside from the alliteration, interior rhymes, etc, this is a very funny fucking lyric. it's clever and about chopping off a fucker's dong. it's very good!

here's one about a kid who is psychic and can read your mind and do all sorts of goofy shit.

And in two years he made the cover of Time
The albino priest with the psychic mind
"You wanna see Mr. Snow you better get in line"

He might've been fine - He might've got through it OK
If not for the girl, when he saw her I guess everything changed

And the loose in him wound up tight
And the flanks all faded in the failing light
And the needy people seemed an oversight

isn't that something? come on. he can see into people's minds, and then he sees this one girl and nothing fucking matters anymore except maybe talking to her.

these are three very different styles. not all of them are good. I didn't even get into hiphop, I stuck to prog. go ahead, find me a single fucking speed metal or power metal VERSE that is even close to something like Carie, which is one of the most heartfelt prog songs ever (as a result it gets into pop territory lol).

oh, but I know what you'll say. "I don't pay attention to lyrics".

to which I reply: fuck you. the fact that you choose to ignore what is almost certainly the real meaning of the song because you like rocking the fuck out to guitar doesn't make you any less of a douchebag.

hey, DP, you hate rap. why don't you ignore the lyrics? whoa what do you mean that makes the song just almost an instrumental piece? huh funny how that fucked up the entire fucking genre right there!

if you ignore lyrics in speed and power metal, you don't know shit about speed or power metal. that's it. end. you can't just say "yeah i choose to ignore aspects of the song", it doesn't work that way. I bet Hollaback Girl isn't a putrescent compost pile if you ignore Gwen Stefani but she put her voice and her lyrics in it and I never ever want to hear it. you don't get to say you actually listen to music when you don't fucking understand it. if English isn't your first language, so sorry cholly, but let's face it, just like I will never appreciate Jacques Brel like a Frenchman would, you probably won't get English music ever. can you like it or dislike it? sure. can you really honestly defend your opinion? probably not. you're going to tell me that if a song had lyrics that were just slurs against your family, you'd still say it's a good song?

Dragonforce and company purposefully make terrible lyrics because it's all part of their shitty aesthetic. heh...I'm a badass whoosh.

which is where we go into the next part, the actual music. the singers are godawful yelpers who wouldn't be okay in any other genre but it's okay to be completely tonedeaf in these because as long as you can yell dumb shit loud enough, you are a good singer. and the fucking guitars and drummers. ahahahah. for fuck's sake.

THIS SHIT? REALLY? THIS IS WHAT YOU THINK MUSIC IS?

speed and power metal are for people who don't know what a soul is and when they want to actually rock the fuck out are too ignorant to know of any of the great bands in the past that would do this shit without being almost offensive to the ears.

this isn't fucking music. this is a douchebag who doesn't know how to play a guitar looking like a fuck while he plays the same kind of bullshit Steve Vai already has wholesale control over (no one is a bigger douchebag than Steve Vai).

rock out? you wanna grow an actual sack and stop listening to this kind of pansy flowy hair I'M A HERO WAAAAH bullshit. I've met girls with more balls than all of metal put together because they can listen to this shit and not cry about how a dragon killed a village and they were all alone.

LISTEN to these people. for fuck's sake. this is dense punch-your-fucking-face music. this is what it really means to be tough, not some worthless Malmsteem shit acting like he knows what music is.

oh but I like technical virtuousity waaaah listen to jazz or classical then. you already established you don't listen to lyrics, but most people like this don't have the guts to go for at least fucking post-rock because they are apparently fifteen years old and shit about dragons while playing boring guitar riffs so that some nasty goth girl will let you feel her fucking titties because you're so fucking hardcore is great music.

and here's the best thing: I listen to this shit occasionally. yeah! I have a Masterplan album on my ipod right now. if you were feeling really insane and wanted to look through my music list, you'd find a few others! it's okay to break up other music with, sometimes you want cheesy shit. I recognize it's shit but I think it has its place.

my original comment was towards this: http://www.gamingw.net/pubaccess/52083/itemlist.html

look at that.

it's almost all speed and power metal. you aren't appreciating music, you're listening to fucking SPEED AND POWER METAL ALMOST EVERY TIME.

it's okay to focus on a genre, I got a lot of hiphop and punk. but similarly you need to recognize the flaws and I'd argue (and have) that speed and power metal have far more flaws than ANY other genre of music. it lacks the passion of, well, anything (even indie bands manage to care more it seems) and is far less technical than prog metal even, ignoring classical and jazz and shit like that. the lyrics are worse than even Vanilla Ice rap. there's nothing redeeming about it and SOOOOO MUCH of this list is made entirely of it.

I can't believe I had to outline any of this. I figured you would be aware you are listening to the worst music. it's not even metal man, metal at least has bands like BtBaM and Alcest and Electric Wizard and Boris and Dillinger Escape Plan under it. metal has more bad bands I'd say but it's got great shit in the genre. but speed and power metal is so childish. christ. can't even grow up to hardcore punk or anything, gotta listen to some nerd with terrible hair wail about battles that he would die three seconds in.

conversely I think Henry Rollins could take all of Scotland armed with a folding chair.

wait I'm confused, why did you link Daft Punk.

my complaints are directed to speed metal for a reason. other genres of music took a note from Tim Buckley and treat the voice like an instrument sometimes. as a result, the lyrics make little sense but are sometimes not supposed to.

or in electronic music where the vocalist are CLEARLY part of another instrument, like in Daft Punk.

my thing about speed metal is it's just not impressive in any way and is in fact kind of annoying a lot. I can take it in doses but I don't see what the audience for it is! if you want angry music, listen to punk. if you want cheesy lyrics, listen to prog. if you want complex instrumentation, listen to classical. if you want all those, listen to prog metal.

Listen to Paul Dilbert, his last album (Silence followed by a deafening roar) is purely instrumental and it is totally unlike all that "power metal" but is still very technical and musical.
