Angry Im just Disgusted

I just have to complain about this. And im sure many will agree. Metal is too F*ckin dominate. Every where i turn You either have to like Metallica, Maiden, GNR, or Malmsteen. Man Metallica is great and all but fuk its always metal everywhere. As for punk, punk is stupid no offense to anyone. And the only other style of rock people are the grunge people. Their too depressed for me. Man in my music club class at school, all they f*kin play is metal. I play a lil floyd, doors, and some of my own psychedelic sounding riffs and the whole crew gets pissed and takes the borrowed guitar away from me. I dont wanna shred like a dumbass, or gallop with crazy distortion all the time. Man this just blows. AND IF ANYONE BURNS ME IN ANYWAY F*CK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Im just Disgusted

I know how ya feel dude. I used to feel that way, too. However, there comes a time in every guitar player's life, or i dunno, maybe it's just me, when you start seeing speed as the only way out. lemme elaborate. I'm going through a metal phase right now. and while the whole classic rock thing used to do it for me, i find that these days i can play it without really paying attention to what i'm doing. the only way to get my mind to shut the **** up is to play as fast as i can. that's my three and a half cents. it just helps. metal, punk, grunge, it all depends on how you're feeling at the time. give it a few months.

Re: Im just Disgusted

1)Sorry for the language Fulghum
2)Blind Instrument your pretty right, but belive it, i have never found comfort in playing fast and heavy and dont think i will, the depressed part i got down, im a teen (lol). but even in my depressed state, whatever i express through music comes out in a way of mixing "the end" with "breathe in the air". weird.

Re: Im just Disgusted

New Metallica's terrible, Guns n Roses haven't released anything worthwhile since '89 or something, Iron Maiden retain the profile of a marble on fixxlevy's radar and I luckily haven't heard Malmsteen for a good 15 years, apart from that clip where he makes even more of a penis of himself on some transatlantic flight.

Hey Sev, when, and if, they take that guitar away from you again, take it back! They'll appreciate it someday. Or not.

I know there has to be a point behind fixxy's rambling...

Re: Im just Disgusted

The only way I get people to notice my piano playing is to basically play as fast I can, so I guess that's the easy way to get noticed. In the right hand, I just learn and practice my blues scales, and I basically let my fingers spaz out up and down the board. In the left hand, I'm banging out the chords in octaves, sometimes with the fifths, like power chords. It's shameless but it works.

Re: Im just Disgusted

Who cares about impressing other people or what other people consider good music? Just listen to and play what you want and calm down.

Re: Im just Disgusted

Yeah, David's right, but I know what you mean.

For the past two years I have played in a guitar competition called Guitarmageddon. It's me, and then a bunch of guys who have been playing for 20 years and just shred. It's a bunch of bollocks, it sounds like shit and just grinds on my ears. The first year I was listening to Stevie Ray Vaughan a lot and the thing I played sounded a lot like Texas Flood. The next year (this year), I plugged my Les Paul strait into a Marshall stack and just ****ing rocked out. No fancy effects, no technical bullshit, just ****ing rock. I didn't win, but afterwards one of the judges told me it was a relief hearing something other than shred metal for a change. But yeah, shredding is annoying. It just seems like it has no feeling to it. It's all brain stuff, there's no heart to it.

I like Metallica, and GN'R, but I know what you mean. My friends don't really dig that though, so I've never really been pressured out of my music.
