It IS, Alex! They've got a really original sound! Which isn't to say they're GOOD. But they're way less generic sounding than, say, Nirvana ever were (which again, isn't to say I like them more; I don't, but mainly because I can't get past the guy's voice...)

Wait a minute. I'm not going to say that Kurt sang like an angel or anything like that but, if you can't stand Kurt's voice, how can you stand Dave Matthews'??

Aja (aja), Sunday, 11 April 2004 16:51 (twenty years ago) link

For fuck's sake, Aja....LET KURT GO!

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Sunday, 11 April 2004 16:52 (twenty years ago) link

I DID!!!(sort of)

WHY DON'T YOU TAKE YOUR OWN ADVICE!!!!

WHY THE HELL'D YA POST THAT EMAIL IF YOU WANTED THIS THEAD TO DIE???!!!!

AND BESIDES, IT'S NOT MY FAULT THEY ARE PAYING TRIBUTE TO NIRVANA ALL WEEK WITH THESE STRANGE NIRVANA COVERS!!!!

Aja (aja), Sunday, 11 April 2004 17:01 (twenty years ago) link

What advice? Get over Kurt? I was never into Kurt. Let it go, Aja. You're preventing his tortured soul from crossing over into the great beyond. You are damning him to limbo. Are you happy with that? How do you sleep at night?

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Sunday, 11 April 2004 17:04 (twenty years ago) link

Not get over Kurt in particular, just get over this. You wanted this thread to end and you just helped it continue.

And anyway...

I sleep on a matress with out a bed frame in the "office" at my mom's and an old bed at my grandma's.

And look, the main reason I got into Nirvana was because of Dave Grohl. I thought you would be able to remember that. I had absolutly no idea about a man by the name of Kurt Cobain till I read the back of the sleeve of the greatest hits cd. I only started to like him when I found out he was left handed. You see, I have this think about left handed people. I tend to find more interest in them. And it's all because I'm left handed. So is my best friend. And the person who makes fun of my best friend the most. Also, this other girl. And the Sister who everyone hates and my soon to be 8th grade teacher. And finally, my homeroom teacher this year.

Aja (aja), Sunday, 11 April 2004 17:14 (twenty years ago) link

you people are absolutely ridiculous, not one of you has a good argument of why hes bad. Look what your writing....hes ugly, he sings like a donkey, he has a fetish with black people. But maybe ur right cause u listen to really talented kickass bands like tool and the deftones. You people are joke. You know hes huge when he has little clubs of why people hate him and i bet it pisses u people off.

Zach Dilanzo, Tuesday, 13 April 2004 21:40 (twenty years ago) link

hey...
you remember february 11th, 2003?

yeah.
nor do i.

oh,BMD, still suck.
i just had to.

eedd, Wednesday, 14 April 2004 05:19 (twenty years ago) link

I'd take TOOL or the DEFTONES over DMB in a heartbeat. With Tool, you might get to see KING CRIMSON open for them. The DEFTONES might play "Savory".

Lil' Fancy Kpants (The K is Silent) (ex machina), Wednesday, 14 April 2004 05:35 (twenty years ago) link

who are you, pepe le punk?

You know he's huge when he has an army of internet minions who will hunt down the infidels.

Prude (Prude), Wednesday, 14 April 2004 06:09 (twenty years ago) link

I should prefer that the whole sentence be "You know he's huge when he has little clubs," full stop.

That just sounds wrong, John.

If you appreciate music, you appreciate Dave Matthews Band.

Paul Bender, Friday, 16 April 2004 05:45 (twenty years ago) link

bender, you've changed.

Oh please....what a towering stack of crap!µ

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 16 April 2004 05:58 (twenty years ago) link

DMB is a good band, but their fans are no different then the boyband genre, they just go apeshit for him.

ass, Tuesday, 20 April 2004 00:18 (twenty years ago) link

there's a buncha Dream Theater fans who think you're full of shit, by the way

J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 00:27 (twenty years ago) link

that was a challenge, the second you should be said with emphasis. "you think you appreciate music, huh? let's see you try to appreciate DMB"

oops (Oops), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 06:43 (twenty years ago) link

YOU GUYS ARE ALL HATAS! DMB WILL 4EVA BE THE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD! BETTER THAN ZEPPELIN, RHCP, SUBLIME, HENDRIX, BOB MARLEY, DISTURBD, AND WHOEVER THE HELL ELSE YOU MAY IDOLIZE. DMB KICKS ASS, SO FUCK OFF, ASS MUNCH

Nonya, BIZNATCH, Tuesday, 20 April 2004 12:56 (twenty years ago) link

YOU GUYS ARE ALL HATAS

I read that as, "you guys are all ass hats" .. and then again as "you guys are all hats" .. But being a DMB fan, it turned out to not be that witty.

And I believe it's "whomever". Once again, a DMB fan with grammar issues.

dave225 (Dave225), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 13:17 (twenty years ago) link

Why do I keep opening this thread?

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 14:34 (twenty years ago) link

ILM's favorite train wreck!

Made ya look.

dave225 (Dave225), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 15:50 (twenty years ago) link

RHCP

does anybody besides me read this as "Red-Headed Clown Posse," no matter how senseless a reading that may be? No? Ok, fine, whatever

J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 15:59 (twenty years ago) link

Fuck any of you who do not like DMB. They are the greatest band ever and you should bow down. I've never heard such dumb ass reasons to dislike a band. So again, if you don't like Dave, Fuck you and your mother.

Your Mama, Tuesday, 27 April 2004 01:33 (twenty years ago) link

Hey, Your Mama.

Are you a jock?

NUMBER 1 TERRY RILEY FAN (ex machina), Tuesday, 27 April 2004 01:36 (twenty years ago) link

Gosh, I'm convinced!

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Tuesday, 27 April 2004 02:24 (twenty years ago) link

perhaps everybody hates DMB so much because they are, by far, the most talented musical group on the scene today. ever think about that?????

erik james, Thursday, 29 April 2004 21:56 (twenty years ago) link

ts: DMB v Slipknot

Donna Brown (Donna Brown), Thursday, 29 April 2004 22:00 (twenty years ago) link

I love this thread.

Is this the longest running ILM thread?(I'm not counting the Nas vs. Jay-Z thing)

Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 29 April 2004 22:01 (twenty years ago) link

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!

I know that's why I hate GW Bush .. because he's so talented. His fans are still dolts, though.

Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Friday, 30 April 2004 11:16 (twenty years ago) link

No, Chris, you want the Phish: Name Your Reasons Why They Are So Bad & Hated thread. This thread should make you want to go to every Abercrombie & Fitch outlet on this green earth and murder preppies.

I've finally gotten around to reading large chunks of this thread rather than skimming through it for two minutes at a time ... it's been running for fourteen months with dormant periods of only four or five weeks max since then.
This thread should never die. We cannot let it happen. We must always remember.
Bravo to everyone who posted here and helped keep my brain functioning because I'm bored as fuck here at work.
Oh yeah, DMB SUX BZNALLS AND ALL HIS FANS R SUPER GAY.

Barry Bruner (Barry Bruner), Friday, 30 April 2004 17:17 (twenty years ago) link

BZNALLS

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

DMB sucks, and you suck for liking them.

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 30 April 2004 19:34 (twenty years ago) link

Dear Idiots:

I would like to state that all you Britney Spears loving retards can burn in hell. Not only does Dave Matthews come up with impossibly good lyrics, but also comes up with acoustics and rythms that you couldn't play to save yourself. Once again Dave Matthews Band is the best and I hope you mothergrabbing faggets will go and die. You also have no lives!!!!(I would like see anything that you guys have tried to come up with in the fields of music) And by the way to the faggets that don't know what they are talking about, Phish, Counting Crows, Dave Matthews Band and Bob Dylan are all the best. . . you may return to wasting you life.

Rex Daines, Wednesday, 5 May 2004 00:45 (twenty years ago) link

I can totally play "Crash into Me" on the guitar. And I really am the worst guitarist in the history of Christendom.

"And by the way to the faggets that don't know what they are talking about, Phish, Counting Crows, Dave Matthews Band and Bob Dylan are all the best. . . you may return to wasting you life."

I love wasting my love.

latebloomer (latebloomer), Wednesday, 5 May 2004 01:08 (twenty years ago) link

Not only does Dave Matthews come up with impossibly good lyrics

-- Rex Daines

He's right you know:


Dodo

Once upon a time
When the world was just a pancake
Fears would arise
That if you went too far you’d fall
But with the passage of time
It all became more of a ball*
We’re as sure of that
As we all once were when the world was flat

So I wonder this
As life billows smoke inside my head
This little game where nothing is sure, oh
Why would you play by the rules?
Who did, you did, you
Who did, you did, you

When was it killed
The very last dodo bird
And was she aware
She was the very last one

So I wonder this
As life billows smoke inside my head
This little game where nothing is sure, oh
Why would you play by the rules?
Who did, you did, you
Who did, you did, you
You say who did, well you did, you

If all the things that you are saying love
Were true enough but still
What is all the worrying about
We can work it out
We can work it

Oh I wonder this
As life billows smoke inside my head
This little game where nothing is sure
Why would you play by the rules?
Who did, you did, you
Who did, you did, you
You say who did, well you did, it’s you

the music mole (colin s barrow), Wednesday, 5 May 2004 01:14 (twenty years ago) link

Now you just try telling me that that lyric isn't impossibly good.

DAVE MATTHEWS NEVER DID A SPLIT 7 INCH WITH BORN AGAINST

GET TO THA' (PRICE) CHOPPA!!!!!!!! ROFFLE!!!!!!!! (ex machina), Wednesday, 5 May 2004 02:06 (twenty years ago) link

Wow hahah I am truly suprised that some one who hates Dave Matthews would take the time to play crash into me the whole way through and that you could get some of the best musicians to play the rest of all the other instruments that make the rest of the band and I agree go waste the rest of your life

jon skogen, Thursday, 6 May 2004 23:53 (twenty years ago) link

So did Allison just finally give up?

Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 7 May 2004 00:09 (twenty years ago) link

Rex, I think it's cruel to condemn Britney Spears to hell just because she loves retards.

dave225 (Dave225), Friday, 7 May 2004 10:58 (twenty years ago) link

And what the FUCK is it with Dave Matthews fans and poor grammar?
