face, i was being lazy
not trying to show disrespect
i'm what you'd call a closet trip-hop fan
but then you could say that about many musical genres i enjoy

House of Jealous Lovers, bi'yatches, Pete knows what i'm talkin' about, yea.

and if you can find it, the Liars "Mr. You're on Fire Mr"
what's your address again? i'll send you a musical carepackage.

"whatever genre Massive Attack can be considered"

wha-?!!

Downtempo, abstract beats, ambient, acid-jazz, lounge, dub, funk, hip-hop, post-acid house; take your pick kuz either way they've used them all to become the motherfuckin undisputed pioneers of TRIP-HOP.

Those brits in Bristol stole yer soul. If it weren't for those kids you'd never have heard of Portishead, Morcheeba, Esthero, Lamb, Thievery Corporation, Tricky (of course), Groove Armada, Kruder & Dorfmeister, UNKLE, Wagon Christ, Sneaker Pimps, Cibo Matto, and a whole slew of others including all the other trip-hop acts you listen to. You owe them.

Respect it.

Hey- it's all good... I know you meant no disrespect. I'm just a firm-believer in equal-opportunity education is all.

Da peeps need t'be skooled t'be cultured yo.

And by-the-by, before I fly, get'cherself the new LAMB disc for some optimal nouveau downtempo orche-ma-strations.

Ah... that random name generator sounds a lot like me...

go ahead, I dare you to pronounce it (i have no idea!)
alright, it's alison

Anyone want to go to BIG FISH this weekend?

just askin'

btw, the random name generator's kinda silly/dorky/useless but fun

just checking out links,

I visited Musicplasma... pretty cool, I must say, perhaps it'll help me find new bands...
but I typed in Audioslave (being 3/4 RATM) and nowhere on the screen did it cite Rage Against the Machine as even closely related.
Actually, RATM was nowhere on the screen at all.
Though Zwan was.
Even more interesting, Coldplay and David Gray are more closely linked to Audioslave than Led Zeppelin and the Who.
I wouldn't have guessed that at all.

Interesting idea though. Apparently my tastes in whatever genre Massive Attack can be considered all are quite similar...
seeing as I have some of the other bands already...
so part learn more new bands you probably will like based on your tastes, and part see how predictable your tastes already are.
