I think a better alternate title for this thread would be, "What band did you mildly enjoy at first but then grew to love after many many listens?" That would make more sense than "HEY, WHAT BAND DID YOU FORCE UPON YOURSELF SO YOU COULD BE LIKE EVERYONE ELSE AND PROCLAIM YOUR LOVE FOR THEM BECAUSE YOU FELT LIKE YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO AND THEN YOU ENDED UP HATIN THAT SHIT BAND ANYWAY."
Of course I'm kidding. But only a little bit. And demonrail, you're a good dude. |

And Possibly You Ended Up In A Mental Hospital For Exposing Your Delicate Ears To The Sound Of Katrina On Record. And Deaf For Nothing Too.

See, I want to hear some legitimately challenging music.
Music that literally challenges me. Hopefully to an arm wrestling contest because I'm pretty good in those. |

MadCapLaughs, no offense, answer the thread however you'd like.
But he's asking for bands you hated no matter how much you listened. |

I challenge the music more than it challenges me. There is literally nothing that a record can do to challenge me personally. That's not the point of why I love listening to music in the first place, anyway. And it's not like I have easy listening on all the time either.

Porkmarras, we haven't had any epic page-long arguments lately. So, I challenge you.

Go on, then. I'm challenging you to challenge me. Let's see who comes out victorious after our internet duel. Prepare yourself for the worst, and don't leave your records scattered on the floor, or it'll just make me think that they're not worth it.

ah. i'm a bit hung over. i think i saw the thread and read the last couple posts, one being the one you put up about the alternate titles for the thread. which meant there was probably some battle over a term or definition or how you shouldn't conform or something. but you put something like this thread should be called "bands you mildly enjoyed at first but then grew to like after man ylistens" i think thats what you wrote, i'll check again. as far bands i hated no matter how many times i listened to them, there are so many there is no point in even naming them. |

I've been on many music oriented forums in my 7 years of going on the internet for hours a day, and while some of them including this one have members who know what they like and don't bother with what they don't like, I've stumbled upon forums where some members just suck up to more veteran posters and just seem to follow their music taste even if they don't like it. Yet if I post that I don't like the band I get shit from other members. Possibly why I like this board more than most of the other ones I've posted on in the past, people are very open here and I like that nature in the internet and real life. I seriously hate stupid elitist internet users who think everyone should listen to the exact same bands as them and bully people into thinking that their music taste is "right". Luckily there is not much of that here and people here are generally very chill about things. But yeah, I digress, people should learn to just like what they like and other people should accept that other people don't like their favourite bands or whatever. I learned that greatly when I actually started hanging out with people I'm friends with. This goes for movies as well I guess, a lot of people in my life seem to think that I don't like movies because everyone else likes them, when in actual truth I just don't like most modern mainstream cinema. Whatever, I think I've completely missed the point of what I'm trying to say. |

I don't really try to like anything I don't like. If anything I don't give some music enough of a chance.

I don't judge a band soley off of one song, but if I hear a few of them and don't like them I won't listen to that band. It isn't so much about forcing yourself to like something because you think you should, or dropping a band or any of that bullshit. To me it's just about your current state of mind when you hear a band.
The first time I heard the Black Lips, I didnt like it (this was a few years ago). I didnt listen to them again. About a year ago I was at a party and heard them, then saw one of their live shows, and it was the 'right' time for me to hear that music, you know? Cuz taste often changes, and circumstances and moods when you hear a band has a big part to play. They are now one of my favorite bands. |

Also in my opinion,music is about self-discovery, self-expression, and a just getting away. If it moves you, it's for you, if it doesnt, it's not.
I don't get the whole challenging thing, if you wan't a challenge go start a duel, andrew jackson style! (which could happen sooner or later looking at how this thread is going) |

I never really tried to like any bands. I tried not to hate Dinosaur Jr.
