I realize it has been done before, but that didn't stop the thousands of Favorite Game and 'Why country X is evil' threads, so suck it, you sissies!
There are bands that are commonly hailed for their incredible artistic inventiveness, mixing Jazz and Punk Rock with old russian folk songs. Their guitar play is that of gods, the drums are magic, the lyrics full of poetic might and socio-economical criticism and even the bass can cause listeners to spontaneously orgasm. (At least until they break up messily, because their lead guitar player has found God at the same time as the drummer finds Satan, the singer is discovered to be an ex-soviet sleeper agent and the guy on the bass becomes a postman in Ann Arbor,MI)
Of course this isn't the kind of music I am talking about, far from it. Instead I am talking about the kind of music, that makes you wish to be dead rather than to be caught listening to. The kind of music that would make your best friend burst out in laughter if they knew you listen to it and if you're honest with yourself, you would too. Music that has been officially declared a valid reason for divorce in fundamentalist islamic countries.
You get the picture.
However, for some strange reason, you like it.
Long story short: It's a guilty pleasure.
And since it's the internet you can tell us all about it without fearing physical retalition*
Mine is:
Yes, seriously.
Just for contrast's sake:
This is the kind of stuff I usually listen to.
So, dear fellow Escapists, you are free to embarass yourself in
