    Bands you really hate but pretend to like

    Bands you really hate but pretend to like

    Gorgoroth. If those dudes knew I really didn't like them they would drink blood from my skull.

    The only reason to pretend to like a band is if it gets you laid.
    I don't work and I don't save, desperate women pay my way.

    Is Gorgoroth still around? I thought Espedal left to be a fasion designer.

    If they got Hat back in for lead hatescreaming I'd pretend to like them.

    Doesn't have anything to do with this thread, but I like Florence + The Machine, but I don't tell anybody.

    I saw hootie and the blowfish in 91 at the old post office in Hilton Head. The second set they did all Public Enemy covers, it was sick. Seriously, they rocked the house that night, then they went pop, but the man can definitely sing and the band was not that bad really.

    It is nearly impossible for me to pose. This causes me to be rather abrasive at times. Why the fuck would I pretend to like something? One of my friends put a Pink Floyd lyric as his status on the ole FB. I did not let that shit slide. People go fucking nuts if you try to say Pink Floyd is overrated. Sorry, but they are overrated. I don't need to hear them 4 times an hour. They have 1 good guitar solo. 1. And Darkside OF the Moon is music to hang yourself by. Take a bath, hippy!
    No longer stuck.

    There really is only one band you should pretend to like.
    Wyld Stallions- it would be really bad form to hate on the band that saved the world.

    I'm not gonna pretend to like nearly any soundtrack for TGR ski porn in the last 5+ years. Too bad I like the footage itself. I guess I just don't get the whole inner-city rap vibe or the rasta shit for one of the whitest sports on the planet. Like most the audience is really "down with the struggle".

    I don't pretend to like the music, but I do like the movies.

    The irony lost on most non Ween fans is that the whole thing is make believe!
    (but ween knows this)

    Personally I love Ween, especially for the irony. Go listen to the tracks Homo Rainbow, Mister Richard Smoker, or Coke on my Dick....genius.

    Thankfully I am old enough to not care what anyone thinks. Music is like art. If it suits you and brings you joy then who cares what anyone thinks. Never and I mean never pretend to like things you don't unless you are doing it as a courtesy to not hurt someones feelings.

    This is quoted because I feel the same way.

    My roommate hates whenever I play ween. It's definitely an acquired taste, by that I mean you have to be kinda fucked up to laugh at it.
