What Makes Good Music?
with metal, skill and originality probably do it for me. also, you can't go wrong with a bit of discordance every now and then. ;) but then i also like acoustic, indie, and other genres of the like which, to be honest, don't actually take that much skill (prove me wrong). in that case, probably catchiness, ie, how good the melody is, do it for me.

Any Children of bodom fans out there?
i listened to them for a few months and didn't mind them. then my computer died and all my songs were wiped, so i started afresh. i haven't bothered geting anything by them yet. i might later, probably not though.

Best Metal Bands?
Behemoth, Nile, Poison the Well, Between the Buried and Me, HORSE the Band (Nintendo-core ftw?). Not in that order.

Music taste in your family?
I listen to metal, classical, indie-rock, and sometimes jazz. My mum listens to classical and Christian music, my dad listens to Christian music and some of the classics. My brother and younger-older (older than me, but younger than the other one) sister listen to indie-rock. And my other sister listens to... pop? Probably some indie-rock as well, I don't know. :)

God's face?
this is aimed at the people saying that God (assuming you mean the Christian God) doesn't have a face, or human figure. first off, this obviously is just a very talented child's depiction of God in human form, but the Bible says that we were created in the image of God, and as such, you'd expect him to have some human characteristics about him. but if the painter wanted to make it more accurate, she'd have to eliminate all shadows, and all light that isn't pure white, as the Bible also states that there is no darkness within God. (sorry for my lack of referencing.) but anyway, she's an amazingly talented artist. beats my stick-figures.

Flight of the Conchords
i only found out about them maybe 2 or 3 weeks ago via some guys at school. i must say, they're pretty funny. i love albi and business time. "then i remove me jeans, but trip over them 'cause i still have my shoes on. but then i turn it into a sexy dance" classic. i might also recommend 'the humans are dead'.

Summer Time, oh BOY. What do you do to pass the time?
buy a cheap guitar and become awesome at it. or at least learn 5 chords. your choice. anyway, i generally just stay at home, play/listen to music, play the computer, watch tv. it's a wonder i'm not fat.. yet.

You can see stars in the daytime
I don't have a "did you know" thread. my apologies. however, you have posted on it, so you obviously know about it. and looking at your post on it, wow, you posted exactly the same thing as you did on here! isn't that great.

You can see stars in the daytime
i really don't see why you didn't post this in your own "did you know" thread. it seems kind of silly to waste more precious forum space on this.

The White Stripes
i like jolene and we are going to be friends. they're a pretty good band.
-
The what are you wearing today thread..
i just put in some pantene pro v sheer volume then i let it roam wild. but anyway, grey pants and socks, white short-sleeved and collared shirt, maroon (sp?) jumper and tie. ie, school uniform, yey.
-
favorite underground band?
gravenhurst. they've been around for a while, but no one really knows about them.
-
Why do you?
some people might play games/use the net/etc. to release anger, or escape form life, or something like that, but for me, and i'm guessing the majority of people that do so, i just do it for fun.
-
The funiest movie youve seen?
donnie darko probably.
-
Family Guy Vs The Simpsons Vs South Park
fairly odd parents. :)
-
Anyone like 'Ion Dissonance'?
i seriously don't know. their older stuff just appeals to me more. it has a nice drugged out, confused feel to it. i'm sure their new music will grow on me.
-
Anyone like 'Ion Dissonance'?
woo! someone else likes them! so far i only really like the music from their first album, breathing is irrelevant, but they're awesome.

Films with huge twists
assuming you're talking about the original, anyone who didn't cry when he found out he was on earth is made of steel. :lol:

Satanism
to my knowledge anton lavey's satanism simply sums up human nature in its beliefs and nothing more really. and as such, to say that you act like a satanist (most people do), is simply to say that you do what you want to do. i seriously don't see the point in making an organization/religion out of it.

The best calculator words.
pft, stuff numbers. graphics calculators. :)
-
Avril Lavigne
Only reason I watched the entirity of that video. Anyway, I guess she's done well for herself, but I really don't like her. I'm pretty biased against pop, and any popular music in general. Except maybe the Strokes.
-
Sarah Silverman
I just find her annoying. She's not even funny in my opinion.
-
Would you kill?...
personally for me, the idea of heaven and living for ever is actually more scary than just becoming nothing after you die. how many times do you get to use it?

Happy 19th b-day to me
nice. 2 more years and you can legally drink in america. to be perfectly honest, i don't see the point of posting this, but happy birthday anyway.

Stage Fright
first thing to do is realise how awesome you are, makes everything better. if you're not awesome, just make yourself think you are. but anyway, getting over stage fright just comes with experience. the best thing to do would just be to get your band to play at a few really unimportant gigs to build your confidence. EDIT: sorry, didn't read the thing about how you've performed a few times. anyway, it's pretty weird that it hasn't gone away. i guess i've grown up performing music infornt of people, so it's nothing special. a question though, are you any good at speeches? you could try doing a public-speaking course, as i'm under the impression that performing in front of people and public-speaking are kind of connected. sorry if that's a crap idea, it just popped up in my mind.
