FOB vs. MCR?
on: November 05, 2007, 03:29:16 AM
Who's your personal favourite?

Despite all the hype, they are truly great bands, and more importantly, in my opinion great songwriters.

Hmm, hard one.  But so far, I like MCR's new stuff.

I think they're pretty different from eachother, so often compared because they are apparently the most popular bands in their genre, but they each became popular because they occupied a different niche, not the exact same one.

Just listen to some of their music on youtube. As a pianist of classical music i say both bands play crappy music...

I don't know what MCR stands for but Fob sounds incredibly dull to my ear. But I am going to be a post modernist and just say that they are both good on their own terms.

Oh, MCR is My Chemical Romance. Abseloutly terribly imo.

Timbaland on the other hand is a pop-producer who makes good pop-music. Wouldn't consider him Beethoven, BUT he is a great pop-musician, probably the best living.
