    Well it all depends on who you play with, doesn't it?

    Rock Music!

    Miles Davis was supposedly a bit of an influence on my favourite band (Radiohead), can you recommend some tracks and an album from him?

    Rock Music!

    When you say English rock do you mean Rock music from england or music that has English lyrics? Cos I can guarantee you, not all English rock bands are crap. Radiohead, Muse and Coldplay are some good examples.

    Online multiplayer games

    Why does everyone hate CS? Is it because its really popular now? Is it because those annoying 12 year olds play it and piss everyone off at the internet cafe? Or because its started to age? I think its a really solid game, and has plenty of longevity. Its also bloody fun. Despite...

    Gandalf! The Ring cannot stay here!

    lol *spoilers ahead* I reckon they'll finish The Two Towers with Frodo dying... Its a better ending than just having Sam trying to find Frodo. edit: added the "spoilers ahead" thing cos I'm nice.

    Any Radiohead fans here?

    Yazbeck, seeing as many people responded to my post I feel that it has a place here. Hell its up to page two, which is more than 80% of the threads in this entire msg board. You have heard a total of ONE Radiohead song EVER. Its not as experimental or that "unpredictable that its predictable"...

    Rock Music!

    I agree with what you said... Triple J is the only station I can ever listen to (on occassion Triple M, but theres too much godawful creed, POD and linkin park), it has the most variety and plays underground stuff sometimes as well. Which other station plays everything from rap and hip hop to...

    More Than 1 HSC exam in the same day

    Yeah that looks like my time table. Except I do Visual Arts and 4u English, instead of physics and maths 3u.... Arrrgggh.... Bloody Modern and IPT, the two subjects have the biggest work load of any subject except English Advanced :( and they pack it into ONE day....

    Any Radiohead fans here?

    aaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrgghhhhhhhhh!!!!! I really hate it when people say the last two albums were cope out albums. They did not run out of ideas, in fact if you listen to either Kid A or Amnesiac, you'll realise that they gained MANY new ideas. They explored Jazz, Ambient, electronica, dance, IDM...

    Rock Music!

    I'll second what he said. Rock at the moment, just like most pop music, is just very dire and uninspired these last years... Punk, along with dance music, is the most derivative genre ever. Throw in three power chords, a bass player that plays the octaves of the power chords, a simplistic...

    Muzik Klips...

    Tool has some really good video clips.... They're all spooky and surreal, I think Schism was there lastest one, but that was ages ago. I tend to like clips that aren't just flashy and eye candy. I like them when its obvious that its not just an advertisement for the song, but sorta like...

    Any Radiohead fans here?

    eh... I don't find the music depressing at all. Its melancholy, but when I listen to (especially How to Disappear Completely:D), I get this really uplifting feeling, especially when Thom is singing with those strings building up behind his voice.

    Favourite Movies.

    You got some good taste mate :) Don't know about LOTR: FOTR being the best though, ah well each to their own.

    ... what kind of music do you listen to while studying?

    Rock is such a broad genre.... But I like: Alternative, Alternative rock, Ambient, Post-Rock, Electronica...

    ... what kind of music do you listen to while studying?

    Well I havn't heard of them... But I'm sure I'll hate them when I listen to them :D

    ... what kind of music do you listen to while studying?

    Nick Tse, Gay Chow, The Twins... I haven't heard everything but I've heard enough crap to pollute my ears for the rest of my life... They lip-sync indeed they do, I'm not sure about their actual concerts, but I'm absolutely postive about the special presentations and award shows in their home...
