Just goes to show that there are idiots wherever you go man. Don't let them get you down. Don't know if i'm a rocker anymore since I shaved my head about seven years ago, but You rock on man...I got your back

because sometimes life is just too hard to handle and they just arent strong enough to deal and just wanna get away from it all.they just kinda sync themself away from everyone and love their music. emo music helps even me sometimes. emo kids are awesome.\n=)

debean75 is probably right... \nWhen people are optimistic or have a kinder attitude, they're put down and made fun of right away, like Hilary Duff for example. No one pays that much attention to her music, it's  just because they look at her clothing from Lizzie McGuire and her explitive-free CD cover, and brush it off, saying she's a goody-good because she's got a lot of happier lyrics.\n\nSome rockers are optimistic, but they all have their bad days once in a while. People like music they can listen to when they're mad or sad, and rock music is like that sometimes.

Usually it's because if everybody likes a certain band and they become popular, the band's old fans die out. It's because people talk about them too much and think they know everything about them when they really dont.

Country these days is Pop and yes I hate Pop.\nWhat's this about Rock & Roll I hear? Rock is an American institution and is here to stay! There is good rock sure! And there is bad rock too. But some of the very finest of music to ever burst on the scene has been Rock, and for that we must all give props to Rock.

Because to hate all the time is stupid, life draining, time consuming, emotionally exhausting, physically abusive and just not great for ones social life.. \n\nWho needs that?!\n\nI'm down with the love thing any day!

Since I like almost all of those bands, I had to say something.\n\nLook, nothing is wrong with any of those bands. Just because they play something different than what you listen to doesn't make them crap. Plenty of people would call the music you listen to crap, and you wouldn't stand for that, would you? There are different kinds of music (and different kinds of rock, for that matter) because different people like to listen to different things. You're entitled to your opinion, yeah, but just realize, yours isn't the only one out there.

no. people only like him cause he killed himself, and i don't understand why. but i respect him and his work with nirvana cause they opened the door for other grunge/alternative rock bands.

the rock world is full of childsh little kids all having a pop at eachother for liking different music, no one should judge anyone for liking music. im not an emo fan myself but atleast these bands are playing there own songs and instruments. people need to grow up and just chill out

I think their music style is unquie, compared to the thrend they are following. (emo?) But I personally don't like them.

I like your argument, you're not biased about anything and show both sides.\n\nI agree, and rap/hiphop/r&b is my favorite (usually because it's so much more fun to dance to). I like rock or punk sometimes but I can't listen to anything that's constant screaming. To me, I don't consider it really music. But if that's what you like, then hey, I'm not stopping you.\n\nI guess what I'm trying to say is that people have very different tastes in music sometimes. The world is incredibly diverse, everyone's so different in their own personal ways. This is just one of them.\n\nWhat do they see in this music? Maybe they prefer hardcore, angry music, or maybe it gives them a rush. I don't know, and probably never will. But again, if that's what they prefer than I see nothing wrong with it.

Ummm............I would have to think about the British pop/American pop question a little harder before I gave that answer.  \n\nYes, I do think that American music fans are fickle.  I hate it when people are fans of a band simply because it's the "popular" thing to do, then as soon as the band goes out of style or does something wrong, then they are not loyal anymore.  Examples of this would be how New Kids On the Block where so popular at one time and all of a sudden they went out of style and nobody would admit to liking them anymore.  I on the other hand still listen to their cd's and will still admit to liking them.  Once I like a band, I like them for the long haul.  \n\nAnother example would be how the Dixie Chicks were really popular and then they stated their opinion and all of a sudden nobody likes them anymore.  Oh well, let me stop rambeling now.

I agree....don't like most "modern rock" nearly as much as the 70s classic rock bands!  Led Zep, Steppenwolf, Hendrix, Seger, Fleetwood Mac (are they rock or lite rock tho lol), Allman Bros, Bad Company...oh it doesn't get any better. :)
