Music Rating

[X2_revolution]

Here's how it will work, you list some songs and Im going to make a list. We rate the songs on a scale of 1(worst)-5(best) and give a short reason why it received that rating. So, in short, I will rate your songs and I want some people to rate my songs.

My songs -

The Faint - Glass Dance
The Faint - Violent
The Faint - Worked Up So Sexual
The Weakerthans - Anchorless
The Weakerthans - Left and Leaving
Kenna - Hell Bent
Kenna - Freetime
Modest Mouse - Paperthin Walls
Mars Volta - Concertina
The Blood Brothers - Cecilia and The Sihloutte Salon
The Blood Brothers - Burn Piano Island, Burn
The Blood Brothers - Doctor! Doctor!
The Bright Eyes - The Calendar Hung Itself

[Fiend]

Dillinger Escape Plan-Highway Robbery
Skinny Puppy-Cainsaw
AFI-Clove Smoke Catharsis
The Cure-Pictures of You

I have the Burn, Piano Island, Burn CD. So my ratings are:

Burn, Piano Island, Burn-5
I love this song, it has a nice melody and vocals.

Cecilia and The Sihloutte Salon-4
I like how it slows down a bit after a minute and you can begin to understand what the singer is saying.

[Fugazi]

This is going to get really confusing really fast. I reccomend a "Gimme a song and I'll rate it" thread instead, with just a few people rating.

The Cure - Pictures of you, 3 out of 5

The Cure are a pretty good band and this is one of thier best. Good, slow, easy beat with solid vocals. I recommend it to anyone.

AFI - Clove Smoke Catharsis, 2 out of 5

I can't really stand AFI and to my opinions this is as good as AFI gets, not that good at all.

I can stand peoples opinions about AFI. But how the fuck do you give the Cure 3 out of 5?

[X2_revolution]

Just my own personal opinion. I think Cure is good but nothing to special. im just being honest with all my ratings of what I think.

Im trying my hardest not be mad. The Cure is fucking awesome. How do you not think they are nothing special? And how can you like Bright Eyes?

The Faint - Glass Dance
4/5, Good electronic stuff. Upbeat, but not happy crap.

The Faint - Violent
4/5, Great little thing near the end. I don't know what to call it, its not a solo, because its electric, and it can't really be an instrumental either... Oh well, The Faint is great. They have a mysterious, almost depressing mood, but an upbeat sound.

The Faint - Worked Up So Sexual
4/5, Rougher than the other two Faint songs. Its on an earlier record, so I guess that explains it. However, the attitude is still there, and the lyrics are interesting.

Modest Mouse - Paperthin Walls
Never heard it, but I do like Modest Mouse. I only have their new CD.

Mars Volta - Concertina
I love Mars Volta. They kick so much ass. I'm guessing this is on "Tremulent" because I have not heard it. But if it's anything like their other songs, it will get a 4 or a 5.

Green Day - Brain Stew
4/5, Good ol' Green Day song. Can't beat it.

Guns 'N Roses - Welcome to the Jungle
5/5, Kick ass song. With Slash on guitar, and Axl on the mic, you have one of the best 80s rock songs ever. It's also on one of the best 80s rock CDs.

Weezer - Island in the Sun
3/5, Nice and relaxing, but nothing extraordinary.


Here is my song list. I'll probly list some more songs later. This is an awesome thread.

AC/DC - Riff Raff
The Postal Service - Such Great Heights
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
Van Halen - You Really Got Me
The Hives - Abra Cadaver
Pavement - Conduit For Sale!
Andrew WK - She Is Beautiful
The White Stripes - Fell In Love With A Girl
Atom & His Package - I'm Downright Amazed At What I Can Destroy With Just A Hammer
Reggie And The Full Effect - Mood 4 Luv (Featuring Fluxuation)
Wierd Al Yankovich - Albuquerque
George Thorogood - Can't Stop Lovin'

[Lord Worm]

Could somebody please rate Phobophile by Cryptopsy?




I think Fugazi's idea of one person rating is a good idea. Also, the person rating should probably state their musical tastes. Am I going to listen to the opinion of a rap listener rating punk? It helps if everyone knows what everyone else likes to listen to. I don't expect Phobophile to be rated too highly because most people here probably won't like that particular style.

Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
One of, if not the, best songs ever!
Freddy Mercury's singing is perfect.
The rest of the band are perfect also.
This is just such a perfect song!
7 out of 5.


The White Stripes - Fell In Love With A Girl
I really like this song.
It's energetic, but not over the top.
But I can't help not to think of the video and song, rather than just the song.
The video is excellent.
But 4 out of 5.



Oh!
My song choice.
Mr. Bungle - The Air-Conditioned Nightmare
and also perhaps,
Jaga Jazzist - Animal Chin

Thank you.

Is it wrong for me to have my own taste and my own opinion?

[dncardman]

Quality songs...to me that is...

Rock-
Metallica- Nothing Else Matters
Red Hot Chilli Peppers- Californication
Nirvana- Smells Like Teen Spirit

Rap-
Eminem- The Way I am
Nas- I know I can

Metal-
Slipknot- Wait and Bleed
Korn- Yall want a Single

[X_dawg]

I'm not going to try and rate too many of these, but I'll pick some out.

The Mars Volta - Concertina 4.5/5 - I really enjoy this song. It's their only good song on the Tremulant EP.

Korn - Freak on a Leash 0.5/5 - It only has more than a 0 because I went through a phase in which I actually enjoyed the song.

AFI - Clove Smoke Catharsis 4/5 - It's from my favorite AFI album and it's a pretty good song.

Red Hot Chili Peppers - 3/5 - I like the RHCP, but this song isn't their best.

Atom and his Package - I'm downright amazed at what I can destroy with just a hammer - 3.5/5 - It's very catchy, but not as funny as some of his music. I'm a very big Atom fan.

Now for my songs:

Between the Buried and Me - Aspirations
Boy Sets Fire - Rookie
The Mars Volta - Roulette Dares
Sublime - Badfish
Opeth - April Ethereal

[orcus116]

Metallica - Ride The Lightning
Blind Guardian - Thorn
Blind Guardian - And Then There Was Slience
Dream Theater - Home
Dream Theater - Pull Me Under
Liquid Tension Experiment - Paradigm Shift
Liquid Tension Experiment - Acid Rain
Offspring - Gotta Get Away
Offspring - Pay The Man
The Who - We Won't Get Fooled Again
The Who - Love Reign O'er Me
Rage Against The Machine - Killing In The Name Of
Rage Against The Machine - Bulls On Parade

Have a blast.
