Flicking thru the music channels this morning, came to a halt on Kerrang, Slipknot were playing (Dualality)......First thought in head "Wicked, i love this track", few seconds later I am stood there watching the video looking at the people in it thinking to myself......"my god they all look soooooooooo very very ANGRY, was i ever that aggry as a Teen"?

As i have no idea what/who you are talking about I guess you're not too old yet

I know what you mean! I've been a metalhead all my life, I'm 34 and only a couple of months ago I was moshing with the best as the Offspring rocked Leeds. Like you though, I watch today's vids and wonder where all the anger comes from. I know the songs are about rebellion, etc. but they always were! Kids today are just so full of hate

I'm far more angry as an adult than I was as a teen Not to say that I wasn't angry as a teen.....although I had nothing to be angry about, but that's teenage life

Listening to Slayer, Nuclear Assault, etc. probably didn't help though

TaviaRS

Yes.

HTH

Bottomfeeder

LOL.......Thanks Tav, can always rely on you to come straight to the point .....you in the city tomorrow ?

TaviaRS

Could have been, gotta do Bristol, Watford and Ilford. However, I'm off out near Newport in the evening.

Bottomfeeder

Agreed, I was/am the same, but it's the vehmence(sp?)
I mean I was seriously into my metal/thrash, remember nearly killing some guy at a Suicidal Tendancies gig when he got in the way of my skateboard.......but it was not malicious, these guys these days look totally and utterly furious !!!!

Perhaps Tav is right, at 36 I should toon into radio 2 give the cd collection to a younger member of the family

Do people rerally get to 36 years of age?


Gosh, i thought it was a myth....

jasey

Some get to 40 apparently - I'll let you know on Tuesday if it's true .

TonyG

Some of us even get past 40... But you never, ever get old. Just older.

I think you've got too old to remember what you were like as a teenager!

"School days... the best time of my life"
"I remember this was all fields!"



As a side, I think I've mellowed or control my anger better as I've got older, either that or I've repressed all my anger and I'm a pressure cooker of rage ready to unlease itself on the next moron that I encounter!!!

I'm now 31 and have been listening to various forms of 'rock' music since I was 14 with rap playing a fairly big part since I was 15!!

InvisibleMan

if you start a sentence with Am i getting old then you are getting old...





ps. i do that too, sometimes i think i should be on 'grumpy old men'
