"Milk" by S.O.D.

I woke up, can't wait to eat
Got my cereal, boy was I beat
Opened the fridge, and to my dismay
There was no milk, my mother will pay

[CHORUS]
I want some milk, my coffee grows cold
I want some milk, I should've been told

[BRIDGE]
I wish I had some god damn milk
My Cheerios just ain't the same
I wish I had some god damn milk
Too bad the milkman never came

I can't go out to the store
I'll just wait till my mother buys more
I'll just have wheat thins and beer
If I get sick, the toilet is near

[RIP ODB]

No you didn't. You just wanted to throw it out that you know what S.O.D. is. Admit it.

I think throwing out that I don't know what S.O.A.D is would earn me more underground cred.
"S.O.A.D? They must be on MTV and radio, because I've never heard of 'em!! Now where's my Cephalic Carnage limited edition 7" red vinyl?"

[hempilation311]

youhaven't heard of system of a down?

[Kombucha]

They aren't on the radio, they rarely get on TV, they're too political.

[hempilation311]

That's because they went mainstream with their singles and didn't complain about anything.

[az666]

yeah they are quite mainstream....but who gives a shit.....its bout the music not how popular they are......im in a bad mood cause my chicks really pissed me off but thats another thread......

it really pisses me off when people dont like bands because they have shit personalities, or because they wear masks and look stupid....or if they have a huge following......who cares......if you dont like music for that reason them you are a loser and you should probly think about why you like the music you do.....if you think its cool to like the music you do...grow up

.........if you dont like the music fair enough but if you dont like the people (image, personality) therefore dont like the music i think you need to grow up......this is not aimed at anyone i just had to get my feelings out and sorry if it didnt make sense or i repeated myself.....

sorry :)

oh and i really made this post so that you could hear the new song.......but discussion is good...:D

I mostly agree, but on the other hand: why do you care so much about what other people think about your taste in music?
I've noticed a certain cross-section of modern hard rock/metal fans practically exhibit signs of an inferiority complex by getting extremely defensive about any band they like that achieves any sort of commercial success. In this respect, said success does change the perception- not only of the detractors as you've stated, but of the fans; it's no longer "I like Band X", it's "I've liked Band X since before they were big!". Or something along those lines. There's always a caveat... the post which I've quoted having one of "I like Band X, so what if they're mainstream?". I think simply saying "I like Band X, peroid" would suffice nicely, and if any music snob has anything to say, they can fuck off.
I think I sort of forgot my point, because I lost an hour somewhere and can't find it, but I think it goes along the lines of "anyone who has to get defensive as to why they like a band or artist needs to be less self-conscious; and to heed their own advice and just like the music". By getting defensive, you end up letting popularity change your perception of the band, and that's the irony.

[Kombucha]

I like bands just for their music, but I have to admit, bands who try to portray themselves as being so incredibly evil or similar do not attract my interest. If people are total twats, who aim to sell stuff through their image rather than their actual music, I don't really want to listen to what they've made to be honest, whether they're popular or not.

you have a very good point there...i honestly wouldnt care if the bandsi liked were on tv all the time n shit....cause i would get to see them more but when people say this band i shit cause their on tv all the time (which i figure was part of your point) thats what pisses me off......

and i also agree with you there....although a 7 years ago i would of been attracted to bands that were this way....not because of their music....for eg marilyn manson....i liked he because he wasnt conventional rock/pop/metal (whatever you want to call him) he went against everything that (most) people say...(kinda)....but then i thought shit who cares what he looks like...he has a good message (lol)....or a strong message....do i actually care if he's selling thousands of albums and is on top of the pops....no....y should i....do i care if other people dont like him?.....not really....

but my main point is......when people say a band is shit...meaning the music is bad....actually i just thought saying a band is shit doesnt mean the music is bad.....welll ill stop this stoned rambling now....and think about what i just thought about..........

[az666]

sorry to double post but i just noticed you aksed me a question that i didnt answer......

why do you care so much about what other people think about your taste in music?
i dont really....as i said above it annoys me when people say a band is shit when they arn't....just because you dont like the type of music or the attitude/messages of the band/music does not by any means mean the band is shit...that is what annoys me.
