kirm Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 no such thing as a guilty pleasure imo, if you like something you shouldn't be ashamed diversity is awesome I agree with this, in theory, but irl there's certain music I would never tell certain people I enjoy. PC Music, for example. I dont feel guilty of course, but I'd never let my friends catch me listening to that I guess true guilty pleasure would be like, I dunno, music you like that has moral issues attached i.e. atmospheric black metal band from east europe with iffy sociopolitical leanings or iconography or music made by convicted murders like big lurch or x-raided or burzum or fascist ambient lol Yeah I feel guilty enjoying homo bashing Ragga/dance hall. I really like sizzla and there was one banging dancehall track I really loved but then realised the lyrics were about killing gays :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kennylogg Bubblebath Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I loved that Haim album when it came out, Mechanical Animals-era Manson is decent, HIM's earlier stuff, recently discovered it's uncool to like Jean Michel Jarre so I'm throwing Equinox into the list. Does Bon Iver qualify as a guilty pleasure? I can never tell. Either way, I love those three records he put out. He's always been leaps and bounds ahead of his contemporaries. I still dig a lot of Weezer's post-Pinkerton material. Raditude and Hurley were garbage but I thought a couple of those early 00's albums were neat, along with the last couple they put out.

I'm with you on that haim album, lyrics are cheesy af at times but at least half of it is perfect pop music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Sumbitches Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Got a huge ABBA soft spot. I know they're kind of everyone's stereotypical guilty pleasure band but even so. Love tunes like SOS, and this. Actually I like a lot of cheesy disco: Also quite fond of Dire Straits which is definitely very uncool, my dad always used to play them around the house when I was wee. Mind you, Mark Knopfler's solo stuff is excellent in a mostly non-guilty way, lovely blues/folk storytelling kind of songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vilwx Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 yeah I have a soft spot for that era of EBM stuff.. Covenant, VNV, Assemblage 23 etc.. reminds me of my brief goth era lol Fucking yeah! I know what you mean, I think I've always been a bit of a closet goth. Yeah, I really like that Metropolis EBM-flavored trance stuff too. A group that I think is particularly creative is mind.in.a.box. Really stimulating and more involved song structures compared to the other acts for me. They celebrate the Gibson cyberpunk vision and 80s synthpop, but keeping the only the best part of the cheese. Also the cymbal play is totally on point on some tracks (Amnesia) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoRBOuVyr_0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually all three of those are amazing. My dad was really into Satriani so I heard a lot of those tracks growing up. I was able to take him to see Satriani live in concert before he passed away, great night I won't soon forget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshuatxuk Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 this song the weirdest thing to me is that he references listening to iron maiden in such a poppy shit hole song It was also a teen comedy soundtrack track. And a weird guitar chord as my dad pointed out, kind of an odd riff. This came out just as I was about to move from the UK back to Texas. They had a cover Erasure's "just a little respect" that charted well in the UK (#3 I think) but back in the US nobody really remembered them as anything other than a one hit fluke. I lived on a military base in England and the music taste for most people was quite limited and predictable, so much so that when I asked someone if he'd heard of Weezer he assumed I spoke of Wheatus.
