Boy bands - good or evil?

Post by Jimbo san »

So, what do you think? Are poppy boy bands the best thing ever, or are they over-commercialised faeces that should never have even been conceived by the dunderheads who produce them?

I think you can guess whch side i'm on. Discuss.

I couldn't care less as long as I get to listen to the music I like. I don't watch MTV or listen to popular radio stations much either, so it doesn't really matter. If someone likes that shit, then good for him/her - none of my concern.

I have mixed feelings about this. The current boy bands are just a modern version of '50's Doo Wop. Let me say that I LOVE Doo Wop. I liked it because it was carefree, it had style, and it was simple.

Modern boy bands tend to scare me off since they are so much more "sexualized", and let's face it, I'm not attracted to that.

I've gotta say, I dislike any and all boy bands. They're mainly over-commercialized performers with no shred of talent, made from the ground up to prey upon hormonal twelve year old girls.

Any kind of artistic expression created out of a desire to make money and nothing more is shit.
--
Only a real artist knows the actual anatomy of the terrible, or the physiology of fear - the exact sort of lines and proportions that connect up with latent instincts or heriditary memories of fright, and the proper colour contrasts and lighting effects to stir the dormant sense of strangeness.

they of course suck enormous amounts of monkeydick but i think they r necessary

that kinda thing has always been around,if there was no boybands all the 14 yo girls would prolly start to listen to good musik that i like and that would make me feel less than macho :roll:

also who would they think about while masterbating if there was no AJ,CJ,JK,AK,BJ,BS, or whatever the hell those guys r named?

Imagine people looking like weezer, complaining about their girlfriends and how they broke up with them... and making all their songs about that.

That is the hellish mixture which is 'emo'.

Its crap, and boy bands suck too.

I like boybands. Their music is my favourite type in the world, nothing I'd rather listen to, but their cool soothing tunes.

Better then that punk shit other people listen to :lol:

Nothing crawled up it... its just that everything refuses to come out, a hand might help... though one should be sure to count all their digits afterward
