So because I was somebody you didn't know you decided to just taunt me repeatedly? Then when I answered you you dropped the "who are you?" card. Guess you can play it off as something else now if you like.

edit
theres really only a few bands i have ever listened to that make me want to do this. i really do like "all kinds" of music. i used to hate country but now am starting to enjoy country like jason aldean where there is a little more fusion of rock into the music. Some music may not be my type but i feel i can understand the good qualities about it.

but i cant stand muse. nor can i stand is greenday. i used to like them too.. wierd

It just kind of sounds like everything else I could hear on the radio. I don't listen to the radio to begin with (I'm never really near a radio - no car), but it just doesn't sound different from the alt-rock that I listened to when I was in middle school.

Not my style.

Subjectively identifying music as mediocre and claiming that it is an objective quality does make you a douche though.

Damnit I'm horrible at this.
Yeah, who do you think drank all that PBR? Oh yeah, my gay hipster roommate and his gay hipster friends.

I say gay because, well, he is literally gay (as Rob is well aware of). Not gay in a negative way. Obviously. Dude's a true bro.

I think they are huge in Canada due to the fact that Great Big Sea was extremely popular. Sound similar to them.
