The thing is for me, much as I dislike psytrance, it doesn't infringe on my life much....tends to keep itself to itself..thus avoidable,
but Dad rock (like the description:D ) is inescapable, droning on everywhere you go.
Hmm, I see what you mean.
But I think this skews the poll- is pervasiveness inherently a property of crapness?
Am I being needlessly finnicky?
Why do I care?
So many unanswered questions :D!
I'm just upset because funky house isn't being treated with the total revuslion it deserves :(

Aye, I felt much the same and voted Country as a result. As much as I hate the pretentious monotony of psy-trance, it's good to laugh at the poi-holding smegheads and even its keenest advocates tend to grow out of it.

Country - despite some decent tunes and artists - tends to be backward looking and seems to attract more than its fair share of tuneless rednecks with antediluvian views - albeit maybe working on the small working men's club circuit, with its succession of shite c&W acts has coloured my view somewhat. The other worrying thing is that, unlike Psy-kids, otherwise sensible adults seem to fall into increasingly tragic behaviour and modes of dress. Suede waistcoats, those stupid shoestring ties and oh the horror of cowboy boots on portly 50 years olds from Basingstoke, putting on silly accents. For that alone Country deserves the vote in my book.

I know that there are worse things that RnB (Which is how I would tend to differentiate stuff I don't like from stuff I do like R&B) but trance just doesn't bother me, Bedwetter I can ignore, Jazz Funk just washes over me making no impression what so ever so it comes back to RnfuckingB which constantly hands me paper towels when I'm taking a piss and wants me to pay for the privilege. And if you want a club night more than usually populated with people who I don't want to know then just look for RnB on the flyer.


This is how I feel exactly - thanks for typing it for me. :D

What you going to deny? That a fair bit of psy-trance sounds very similar. Or that a good few nights market themselves as having some kind of special karma zodiac-toting wonderfulness. See Synergy for example.

I've got a fair few psy-trance friends. Even been to a fair few nights myself - I'd agree about the time and place. Bless 'em though.

:D

Like I say a time and a place. I find ska boring as fuck after about 20 minutes of the stuff.. see?

It's gotta be a toss up between Funky House and Psy Trance...

I like tunes in the other genres *, can't really say I like any psy trance tunes, or funky house for that matter.

What is "funky" house anyway?

I love deep/chicago/acid house, which by it's very nature is "funky", but by having to usethe word funky in front of the word house automatically implies that it is infact funkless toss.

* Edited to say: I don't like Coldplay or any of that rubbish bed wetting stuff, so that may also get my vote.

Am I really the only one who hates miserable, naval-gazing, bland, bad clothes, WANK COCK SHIT FUCK INDIE :mad:

i'm with you Chris.

in fact, this excersise has proved that i hate a lot more genres than i had previously thought. :D

as for the poll. i'm a bit late, i can't think of just one genre for the chop - and it's obviously going to be r n b landslide.
 
In the absence of deep house and speed metal i will walk Johnogroats to lands end in aid of the R&B victims;)

Have you set up a paypal for their appeal mini-bus dub?:D
 
normally i would say funky house, buuut, psytrance has been thrown in also, so id have to go with that. Funky house is shit, but if i went somewhere and it was playing it wouldnt bother me and id probably get really drunk and nod my head along like a twat. whereas if i went somewhere and psytrance was playing id make a sharp exit. so thats my vote.

Cheers! Can I keep it?
Sure but it might need a lick of paint. The New-agers have been using it as a dial-a-ride:p

you didn't put emo so
I had to choose dadrock/bedwetter.

When I worked in an office in a hospital with
a great bunch of RnB loving women I kind of
enjoyed it after a while - I had to!!!
 
I dont think I am much wiser re funky house...its just house music that is commercial enough to get in the chartzzzzz?...s'ok....some will get your head nodding, some will be cheesy shite....however I am not going to defend it.....country is too broad.....love gillian welch, hate garth brookes etc...so its got to be ......psy trance...(if its like goa trance was in the 90s I hate it....no tunes just beebling about).

This poll is shit!

WTF is Country doing it in? :mad: :mad:

Because it's mostly shit and encourages elderly men to dress in silly outfits, pretending to be yankee doodle frontiersmen.

See posts earlier in thread.
