Tom, ot just slam by pendulum, but the entire "hold your colour" album, blood sugar ep and the new track "Granite" are awesome.

As are The Prodigy lol

[minivanman]

Granite's alright, but I dont like the rest of it.

[Pie]

Not even blood sugar? or the track Hold your colour??

I always thought greebo was an old term for old, greasy brit-bike types. Obviously its evolved a tad...

On the music subject, I listen to a big mix of stuff - first bands I got into were greenday and alkaline trio, still like them now. Then I spent quite a few years listening to metallica/motorhead/maiden way too loud, now I seem to have mellowed a tad and enjoy stuff like lifehouse, smashing pumpkins and pearl jam. I do hate drum and bass (with the exception of slam by pendulum, which brings back brilliant memories of SMD last year), rap and hip hop with a passion. Its not music, its just talking quick about guns, cars and "the ghetto"....

*Tom makes a swift exit after re-igniting the age-old musical argument*

Yeah popular rap is gay to the max, with and I quote, "Fast Cars, Danger, Fire and Knives," but there's a lot of hip-hop that's not about that. It's about politics, it's about life struggles, and it's about the music. Fair enough if you don't enjoy that type of music, but if you want to try some hip-hop/rap that's not about gay stuff then try this for a start:

Sage Francis used to be an amazing Mc Battle contestant but he started writing more grown up lyrics and got picked up by Epitaph (Pennywise label) and put on a Punk-O-Rama. That's where I 1st heard him and then I bought his album called, A Healthy Distrust and I loved it.

Other people I recommend are Roots Manuva (awesome UK Hip-hop artist), Atmosphere, Del tha Funkee Homosapien (also known as Deltron 3030 on his self titled album), and Aesop Rock.

So Sam Henderson, Just because someone listens to a particular type of music, They should be hated?

I listen to some 'greebo' music, and play it on my guitar aswell, But yet im on this forum and own a mini, go to college, and dress like a normal person. So because i listen to that 'type' of music im a 'greebo'?

Greebo, definately not a new term. Used in the Carter USM song "the only living boy in new cross" from 1992

I'm labelled a 'greb', even by my own sister

Got to agree with you, i find the comments quite offensive. Just because you dont like something doesnt mean its wrong. Maybe people need to grow up a little bit, and think about things before they post them.

[chairchild]

I'm quite happy - as people don't try to label me as an Emo, Greebo, Skater, or even a goth....



Hell - we even overheard a lil 10 year old boy in town today say "mummy, look at the punk!"











aaaaaahhh, life is good!

[MiniSal]

Back in the 1970's ( my youthful years) a Greebo was a leather clad biker type. Can't get all this weird stuff these days - EMO's sound really woosy for starters ! My mates lad mentioned townies - bunch of nobby types by all accounts, maybe chav but I don't know - it#s all beyond me !

[Nathann]

im no goth or greb! but i think its mmore the chavs that slit there wrists!! i wear skinny jeans and have long hair!! most people think if they have any of them they are either emo a greb or a goth! i think its a load of ********!! who cares how people dress or if they wear make up. most of my old school mates are chavs but they dont care that i have long hair and wear skinnies. so dont judge people on how hey look....

sorry i go on a bit!

[pyromaniac_yeti]

...theres a word for people that post stuff like this....

Tw*ts.
