Answers:
I was actually about to post a question about that!. I'm 17 and I think it's wrong for that guy to assume I listen to MCR and FOB!. I mean you and me share the same musical taste and were both 17!. It shows that it's all BS what anyone says!. To automatically assume that is stupid!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

The person asking that question is probably 21, maybe 22!. Ask us over-40 people about the crappy music in the 80s!! LOL, just kidding -- I saw the Clash in the early 80s, they were marvelous!.

I've always had "non-popular" taste in music, so I'm not one to critique popular bands!. Ask me about Webb Wilder, John Hiatt, Marshall Crenshaw, the BoDeans, or Joan Armatrading, however!.!.!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

haha so what next your you suposto just drop all your metal music and stuff, and go and start listening to oldies!.
you have pretty good taste just not really bands that i like!. but they still are good bands!.
i listen to emo, punk, indie, screamo and stuff like that and lots of people think that, that music sucks but whatever i like it so thats all that matters!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Those darn grumpy, old people!.!.!.Jk

I don't why they just assume that younger people have crappy music taste, I've seen some 13-15 year olds here on Y!A with amazing music tastes!.
Roxel to be honest I love the bands you just listed! :D

I'm 14 and people here assumed that I was in my early 20's before I mentioned my age!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

i'm 16 going on 17 in two weeks, and i have to say that so many older people do assume that younger kids have no appreciation for older music!.!.!.they believe that all we listen to is radio disney, top 40, and rap, and that we have no background in any other musical tastes!.!.!.it's annoying but i'm used to it because my taste is so different from most other kidsWww@Enter-QA@Com

Haha I'm only 13 and that guy is a sterotypical @$$face!.

You have an awesome taste in music!.

I barely ever listen to mainstream trash except for Bush is sometimes mainstream!.


Here are my favorites:

Van Halen
Ratt
Kiss
GNR
Iron Maiden
Iced Earth
Bush
Blind Guardian
Kix
Def Leppard
AILD


Stereotypes are fags!!!Www@Enter-QA@Com

I personally don't like the bands you listed, but I'm not a metal fan!.
But yeah he shouldn't have sterotyped teens!. I'm barely out of my teens and I don't think the bands I listened to were crappy!.
Yes a lot of teens do listen to the bands he think are crappy, but not all!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

All I can say is that I respect people that have different taste in music and respect all types of music! I'm 24 and love music from the Vietnam era! I wasn't even a glimmer in my parents eyes in those days! LOL But I also love classical, country, rap, r&b, punk, rock, techno, goth, heavy metal!.!.!. etc! People should be more like youWww@Enter-QA@Com

I'm probably one of the 'olders' you're talking about!.!.!.I'm almost 41, and listen to the same music you do!. I don't rag on anyone about their taste in music!.!.!.!.it an opinion thing!. I like music from all genres, and may not like some groups, but it's a personal choice!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I'm 45, and I like at least half the bands you named, huge A!.I!.C!. and Tool fan!. I am so sick of hearing the music I grew up on!. I want to hear (and make) new kick**s rock&metal!. Sword is like old school Sabbath!. Testament is heavy!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

ya wow what a d00che!. you have an awesome taste in metal!. i think that its a tie between you and rocco for best metal knowledge on r & p!. its funny that this guy thinks all teenagers have a sh*t music taste!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Hey, this question is about me!. Awesome!. Although being a cyber ninja wasnt on my mind when asking that question

Be an a**hole, and ill be one back!. Go back and reread, I replied to him trying to flame me

As for your list, you get my approvalWww@Enter-QA@Com

I'm 32 years old, and I know for a fact there are many of the R&P members who have excellent taste in music that are under 18 like you Rocco, Wake All The Chidren, Sweetness & many more!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Yeah, that guy really pissed me off!.!.!.!.the funny thing is a lot of us younger people (im 17, also) have great taste in music!.!.!.!.heck, I am proud of my taste and you should be proud of your great taste in music,also!.!.!.!.!.!.

That guy was just a retard!.!.!.!.

:)Www@Enter-QA@Com

I don't think you have crappy taste in music Roxel!.!.and you know I'm quite a bit older than you are!. In fact, you and I have some crossover in what we listen to!.

I think to blanket generalize like that is narrowminded!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

of course not!.!.!. The bands on your list that I have heard of, are all good!.!.!. Testament, Alice in Chains, Death, Tool, Isis, and The Sword!. People who say stuff like that are just idiotic and retarded

Rock onWww@Enter-QA@Com

That guy was a total idiot!. You've got a good list there, and, even though I'm not a fan of many of those bands, I love AIC, as you can tell by my screen name!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Hey, I'm 50 & I Love Alice in Chains! I listen to alot of the newer music!. Not all of us OLDER people have the same opinion!. ;-))Www@Enter-QA@Com

That really annoys me!. Just because I'm younger doesn't mean I have bad taste in music!. I'm 16, and listen to everything from Pink Floyd to Slayer!.

And your taste in music is great, Roxel!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

i dont see crap bands like limp bizkit, mcr or disturbed on your list

and you mentioned some real good bands
i dont see a bad taste anywhereWww@Enter-QA@Com

Hey if you like them then obviously their not crappy to you!. I bet you wouldnt like that other persons taste in musicWww@Enter-QA@Com

I saw that fools question, and HE's the KoRN fan!!Www@Enter-QA@Com

well its just a generalization nothing we can do bout it dude!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

To each his or her own!. I like my 70's bands ROCK ON! Pissst im not old!.!.Just so you know lolWww@Enter-QA@Com

I think it's kind of disrespectful for someone to automatically assume that since we are young, we have "bad" taste in music!. Granted, I can only speak my opinion, but I think that the "older" generation should be happy that us teenagers are discovering the music that they enjoyed, and that not all of us buy into the top 40 music of today!. When I get older, I hope that I will not become that blatantly ignorant!.

I don't think it is the norm for older people to think that though, alot of people appreciate when you can carry on a conversation about the music they enjoy!.

And that fact that you included Iced Earth automatically gives you good taste in my opinion!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

It's relative!.!.!.!.!.!.the experience I'm about to relate to you has more to do with racism than just taste in music, but I think it points to the fact that people with closed minds will put down anyone's taste in music or bands!.
When I was a kid, one time I went and bought a 45 single of "Purple Haze" by Jimi Hendrix (yah, I'm old enough to be able to say that)!. I was telling someone later that I bought it (and was glad to have it in my music collection) and they replied, "Jimi Hendrix!? Why'd you buy that for!? He's black!."

Edit - I was too busy trying to make my point and I didn't say "Purple Haze" by the Jimi Hendrix Experience!. I know, minor quibble, but in the interest of accuracy I figured I might as well edit that!. ; )Www@Enter-QA@Com

I don't think all adults think that!.!. I have actually gotten my dad to like some of the more modern bands I listen to!.!.

I'm not familiar with the bands you listed (apart from Alice In Chains), but i know that you most definitely do not have bad taste in music!.!. I've heard great things about Nevermore, Testament, Tool, and am planning to give them a listen soon!.

I love listening to

Queen, Jeff Buckley, Pink Floyd, David Bowie, Radiohead, Yes, Led Zeppelin, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Mother Love Bone, Tori Amos, The Beatles, Guns N'Roses, Porcupine Tree, The Doors, Elton John!.!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

No, To each his own!. the only genre I don't like is Rap!. I do think it's a valid artform, I just don't think it ought to be called "music"!. but then, I'm 41 and a product of classical training in my childhood and teens!. We do share a band you listed, that being AIC!. Have you ever gotten into Mad Season's "Above"!? Layne Staley sang on it, and it has some good songs!.

All I say when someone tells me my music sucks because I listen to a lot of older stuff!.!.!.!.!.!. "Just because it's old doesn't mean it's no good!." The reverse is also true, IMO!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I'm 16, and I got pissed at his question as well!.

some people are stereotypical!. They're so ignorant that they just assume that a person of this nationality is this or, like his question, people under 18 listen to s**tty music!.

Older people act this way also because they think they're wiser than younger people!.

Tell me, is this list of the bands I like show I have a crappy taste in music!?:
Nirvana
AC/DC
Pink Floyd
Guns N Roses
The Jimi Hendrix Experience
Aerosmith
Lynrd Skynrd
Poison
The Who
