Your "trolling" attacks might hold water if I were actually putting you down or saying something like DMB & SR SUX!!.. or these two bands don't belong in this thread or on the forum! Quite funny since I even stated I enjoy Sugar Ray and have heard most of DMB's stuff. So you are obviously confused as to what a troll is, or you don't understand my point.
I've Been around since early 99, I know the rules. If you are super bored you can check all 7,000 posts I've made. You not only seem to be barking up the wrong tree, but breaking rule #1 of the forum: ABSOLUTELY NO:• Posting of personal attacks against another member, moderator or administrator in the forum. No amount of sarcasm can cover that up.
One last ditch attempt at bringing some understanding to you:
Let's try an analogy and reverse the type of music: I'm going to list artists that do great slow/ballad type songs:
Neil Diamond
Michael Bolton
Lionel Ritchie
Elton John
Barbara Streisand
Celine Dion
Ozzy Osbourne
Now which entry seems "comical?" obviously Ozzy Osbourne, despite having a great ballad in "Mama, I'm Coming Home." Probably one of his greatest songs, but he just don't look like he belongs on that list. Nowhere do I say or think Oz is a comical recommendation. He just looks funny listed with the rest. That is all I was getting at. Nothing more. Are we starting to understand yet?
So can we agree to disagree and stop with the personal attacks?

A lot of the tracks off Suicidal Tendencies' 'Controlled By Hatred/Feel Like Shit' make me crank the window down, the volume up, and the speed higher. The [first] title track, Waking the Dead, Just Another Love Song, they're all good and fast.
And not to break the rhythm, but yesterday Cinemagic on XM played the Title Theme, William Tell Overture, and March from A Clockwork Orange, and those tracks do the same thing for me. To stick with the classical vein, Ride of the Valkyries by Richard Wagner is a gimme.

I would like to agree to disagree as the OP surely doesn't appreciate his thread being hijacked. But your comparisons don't make any sense. Sure Ozzy looks out of place in your list, but how many slow/ballad songs has he made? You can probably count them on one hand, max. Has he ever made a whole slow ballad disc? Again, I can't speak for DMB, but Sugar Ray has made entire discs that are hardcore full tilt. So the analogy just doesn't fit. Square pegs, round holes....
