Nevermore > just "Metal" so...

[PlatypusJesus]

It was amazing. I'm just not sure how this will now be settled. An mc battle, maybe?

Open your mind and check these links, friend!

Also, kindly never mention "Bush - the band" on this forum again or...God Help Me...I swear I will start a Stain'd/Limp Bizkit/Collective Soul thread once a week forever until Nevermore open their set with "Love Bites"!

 

[PlatypusJesus]

I like...Bush the band...sort of. Okay, not really, but DAMN! There's no reason to do that just because of their mention!

Hey!

I listed 6 bands and 6 songs!?! What are you trying to do here?

Listing 77 bands sorta kills my original intent for the thread- which was to highlight specific non-metal artists that neverheads might have an affinity for as a result of our considerable sophistication in regards to all things melodious.

The Tea Party rules!!

 

[PlatypusJesus]

I'm sorry. I had so many that I wanted to list. I went crazy. Forgive me. I just...I couldn't pick just one man! I HAVE A PROBLEM!

 

[PlatypusJesus]

Non-metal is a very broad spectrum, by the way.

 

[Necromunchkin]

Maybe you should just pick one band from any given sub-genre or cross-genre or non-genre...

 

[PlatypusJesus]

That's an idea! But I'm extremely lazy.

 

[Necromunchkin]

.... but typing less would be less work.....than typing more *brain explodes*

 

[PlatypusJesus]

True, but it's faster to just type thoughtlessly than take twenty minutes to decide which band to pick from any given genre.

 

[Necromunchkin]

Yeah. After I saw your list I didn't bother, as too much of my own non-metal listening was listed in yours.

 

[PlatypusJesus]

^_^ See. It's not easy.

 

[Necromunchkin]

Yes, laziness is a cultivated art.

 

[PlatypusJesus]

Yes, laziness is a cultivated art.

Laziness is actually one of the reasons I read. XD

Cool, how bout this...what 5 non-metal songs are you grooving on these days? From ABBA to Zebra..1900 - 2006...no umlauts allowed!:Smokin:
