This could either be good, or a 2013 version of linkin park.

No no no do not diss everything about Linken Park. I absolutely love minutes to midnight, superb album.

I'm interested though in the above collaboration... Not holding much hope though, after all I hate disappointment!

It is the best members from each band I guess, and Pip is brilliant, I'm remaining sceptical though.

Pop Punk as its more commonly known is extremely popular even today.

We get it rynnor; you're old. :)

Barker is a fantastic drummer (or he was 15 odd years ago). If the more talented bits of NIN were involved I might get excited (Lohner hasn't been with them for well over 10 years).

I just can't get excited about Scroobius Pip.

He was one of two survivors in a plane "crash" a few years ago (a tyre failed on takeoff iirc so the plane never got off the ground, it crashed across a road into an embankment). The other guy has since died from an overdose.

Its great - I can remember back in the early days of the commoditisation of music :)

Nowadays its all "give me 4 units of boyband and check the focus group results on the new band name"

What about Cream?

Barker is Punk in the sense that he won't be pushed about, tbh, if you look at their background story, I'd imagine it was one of them contacting each other saying fancy giving this a shot? Rather than a record label saying 'Guys, do this, you'll get loads of interest.'

He's probably right with regards to mainstream chart music, just about any other genre or sub genre he couldn't be more wrong though.

Because people who are old and out of touch think that music is only the stuff they hear on radio 1 in the morning, or on x-factor.

Plenty of decent stuff about that isn't in the charts or part of the radio 1 crowd.

I'm old too :(

Yet you totally oppose this, even though it has the possibility of tickling every taste bud, then again, it could be shit, but optimism dies with age too.

Limp Bizkit and Blink 182 are probably amongst the most commercial bands to come out of America :)

I'm immediately uninterested whenever I see anything relating to Limp Bizkit, but that's mostly Fred Durst's fault so I guess I shouldn't write this off.

It could be interesting... it could be shit. Depends on where they go with it. I'm for one is quite fed up with the hip-hop metal fusion that's been around for the last 10-ish years. Having a rapper (spoken word artist... hah! :rolleyes: ) doing the lyrics (i assume) with three punk/rock/alternative musicians does smell like the same old shit that's been around for a while now.

Mainstream music is that exactly. I quite like folk stuff performed live but I'm more of a Mozart man these days. Music ideally without words which touches you on an emotional level without engaging the language centre of the brain.

Seriously though Mozart ??? Little overrated though... If you want to really touch emotions try Rachmaninoff - variations on a theme by Paganini, Mossorsky night on a bare / bald mountain / pictures at an exhibition etc etc or if you are really adventurous Messiaen and his use of the octatonic scale.... ;)

Plenty of modern instrumental music as well.

Rap is great, but sure about all the screamy metal shit though. Hopefully pip can save this project.

If you think the above is serious your are a tool, as much of one as some of the idiots that have posted here.
