Explain, please. Where's the pleasure in blowing your ears out with distorted guitars and overly boosted bass? It must be there. Lot's of people love it. I just can't figure it out.
It's the visceral nature of it, gets you right in the, well, viscera.
Horses for courses, one mans symphony is another mans nails down a blackboard.
"I grow old … I grow old …
I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled"
Oh, I see. It's about getting your insides vibrated. I have machinery for that. Quiet, too.
"Her eye was on the sparrow. Her mind was on the dove,
But no one cared and no one dared to speak to her of love.
Her eyes are always hooded. Her claws are sharp as steel.
We teach her not to see too much. We teach her not to feel."

Now that's something for an Atheist to admit.
But mostly I like Gregorian Crossover.
That's okay, I love to listen to Bach even when it is religiously inspired.
About me: I have prehensile eyebrows. I speak 9 languages fluently, one of which other people can also speak. When backed into a corner, I fit perfectly - having a right-angled arse.

Me too. But then again, was it religiously inspired or merely religiously funded?
A book is a version of the world. If you do not like it, ignore it; or offer your own version in return. Salman Rushdie You talk to God, you're religious. God talks to you, you're psychotic. House MD Who needs a meaning anyway, I'd settle anyday for a very fine view. Sandy Denny This is the wrong forum for bluffing Paco Yes, yes. But first I need to show you this venomous fish! Calilasseia I think we should do whatever Pawiz wants. Twoflower Bella squats momentarily then waddles on still peeing, like a horse Millefleur
I don't know if i could say a favorite genre. But one you don't see mentioned here I have a special fondness for are film composers, e.g. Bernard Herrmann, Ennio, Morricone, others..

Inspired. There is no doubt by any who studied the private life of J.S. Bach that he was deeply religious. As opposed to Verdi who had nothing but contempt for the clergy and still made "Ave Maria".
About me: "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate and wine in each hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"

The Pope was today knocked down at the start of Christmas mass by a woman who hopped over the barriers. The woman was said to be, "Mentally unstable."
Which is probably why she went unnoticed among a crowd of Christians.
