Unfollow, what's the fun in that? It's way more fun to mess with people, I can count on one mutilated hand the number of times I've unfollowed something/someone on social media.
I'm still not quite sure what dubstep is but after that remix I want no part of it! I'm fond of the original, I swear it has to be the most cheerful, upbeat songs about school shootings...

As much as I shouldn't Lololl. Llooll.. right here I'm surprised you're the only one who mentioned that! Thought for sure a couple people would be like "you know that's about Columbine, right?"
I've been mentioning in these responses how I intentionally left a paragraph out. The one about how I used myself metaphorically and I've never done such a thing and this is for the kids and teenagers and and and anyone else who feels compelled to off their self over a... button. :breathe:
Good morning Jehtro, thanks for checkin this one out!
Dubstep. Just to give you a better understanding, at least you'll have more reason to dislike it if nothing else. Electronica, obviously, a dude named Mickey Finn accidentally doubled the tempo of a "break beat" (like Midnight Star - 'No Parking On The Dance Floor' - "break beat") back in the 80's. He called it "drum n bass" Cuz he's a drummer/DJ and from that evolved Jungle, Downtempo, and a whole shit load of electronic genres.
Then in maybe just the past 10 years, DJ's and artists began cutting that 80's drum n bass beat more than half, like 60-70% of the original tempo but are really emphasizing that 808 drum and all those 90's analogue sounds and, "Tada!!" Dubstep.
Lol, I'm kinda surprised nobody else brought that up. Then again it was my age group that really made school shootings a thing...
I only know what an 808 is because Alabama 3 referenced it in a song and I had to look it up (if you've never heard of them you should check them out, they're an 'acid house country' band out of England, Sopranos theme song was one of their tunes).
Guitar licks are usually what draw me into a song so I largely ignored the electronic stuff, I may have to pay it a little more attention...
Send me one of your favorite Alabama 3 tracks if you don't mind. There isn't much I don't listen to. I'm not a big fan of the cover song, too much snare havin "punk rock" but then Bad Religion and Social Distortion is labeled "punk rock" and they're dope so I'm not sure. Otherwise I'm hip to a lot of it.
I listen to classical in the mornings, Mozart type shit with my coffee. By breakfast I've probably switched through some reggae and 70's rock. Just depends on the weather I guess.
The best way I'f explain an 808 is it's that bass you don't hear, you feel it. The really low drums and they typically have a heavy synth on top so that low feeling, make your nose itch type bass lingers.
I can't do it! Pick just one that is...
I listen to a little bit of everything but it's a bit weighted towards rock, particularly old hard rock/metal. It's also nothing to go from Sabbath to Bill Monroe and then follow that up with some Leadbelly.
I've been to shows where I've felt the bass like that at the very least...
Thanks Jethro!
Damn dude, seems I can't shut up. I've seen Sabbath three times, once with Ozzy, once with Tony Martin and once with Dio but I can not tell this story any different than I've ever told it.
When I mention my Sabbath shows the part that sticks out the most was Sabbath with Dio and not cuz of Sabbath. Oh my fuck dude! Megadeath opened for them that night. I'd been a fan, always liked them, but I didn't own their music or anything. After that show.. went out the next day and purchased every.single Megadeath album. Chilling just thinkin about it.
Dave Mustain KILLED IT that night!
'Hello me, meet the real me!'
Sabbath and Megadeth in one night? I'm fucking jealous. I had a similar experience with Aerosmith, had heard and liked their music my whole life but not enough that I'd bother to buy it, then went to a show as a lark. Those fuckers could play.
It just occurred to me that I may have lied...I may have listened to dubstep before. Check out Tom Morello's (from Rage Against The Machine) Atlas Underground, it's him jamming out with a bunch of other artists.
^Lead track off the album, it's a lyric video in a literal sense, the song is instrumental with the lyrics just in the video. Bassnectar, Killer Mike, Gary Clark Jr, a whole slew of others are on the other tracks.
I'll click the play button when Pura wakes up. One thing you don't do is wake her up, BIG no-no!
Man I hate to be that guy but when concerts are involved, I've just been to a lot, no idea how many performers I've seen. "Hundreds." Anywho.. seen Aerosmith twice. Once when they were not sober and once when they were sober.....
That sober show SUCKED!! The damn venue didn't even sell beer that night. Sucked.
