2. Angry Rockers


When will they learn? It's like they're the most closed-minded people on the planet. Anyone who doesn't like their music is instantly below them and not to be bothered with. And then they complain about being misunderstood, about how nobody likes them, about how they're too altenative.

Well if you tell every second person in the world to fuck off then what do you expect? You get a bad name cos of the attitude you have, not cos of the music you listen to. I listen to rock. I love it, mostly. You've lost me by Children of Bodom or 6 Inches of Blood but anything that doesn't sound like pointless screaming without making an attempt to sing is generally good.

I really don't get it. Is the entire angry thing some kind of statement? Cos if it is, I doubt it effects anything and it just comes across (to me) as mildly annoying. On one hand people=shit, on the other hand angry rockers seem to build a lot on image. Stop caring. That's the only way. Stop caring about the image but work on the attitude so it's less confusing. You're not really gonna freak anyone out these days by wearing black and looking moody. Too many people do it. You'll freak people out by behaving strangely. Unfortunately it's hard to do when you're angry. So stop being angry rockers, just be rockers, and I'll have much more respect.
