Electronic music has the same slew of terms to distinguish this or that variation and I'd have no idea what they're talking about. A new guy arriving next week on the project had "hard <something> fan" on his resume, including that he regularly goes to Belgium and Netherlands to attend festivals. My boss thought it was like me because the coworker who didn't know Deep Purple/Nirvana/Queen apparently put me in the "hard/metal/etc." crowd after a couple links. Nevermind that I linked her more pop or folk than metal or rock. :< I gotta educate these music plebs. | ||

Hopefully things get better for you. In an act of ignorance though, I thought you already moved to another job. Did that not happen or are you moving again? Fuck Scheme. Only reason to program in Scheme is if you want to commit suicide by drowning in ((()))(()()()((()()(()))))((())((()(((()(()) | ||

How could someone think a person with any interest in music wouldn't know Queen? You'd be surprised, my best friend's girlfriend in college didn't know queen. Thank god they broke up. | ||

I know tons of people were super pissed/sad when Tarja left, but I think I liked Annette's popmetal style better. Not to say I disliked Tarja; the operametal was just not my highest preference. Although her Over the Hills and Far Away cover is fucking amazing. I'd love to see her and Tony Kakko (Sonata Arctica) duet that shit. Also, Planet Hell. I was surprised at the time, tho not pissed cuz well, it's not my place to decide how the band should be run. Annette was fine, and so far my only exposure to floor is the Wacken 2013 DVD they have, and she fucking killed it.

This just makes me sad, Queen is by far my favourite band, and while I don't expect everyone to have that love, I don't know how you don't know at least one song from Queen these days  . Maybe I'm just an old fart.... | ||

I will admit though, it is very easy to get lost in a sea of brackets. That's why I'm getting a Math Degree though; it's going to help me deal with all of those brackets. | ||

It's a mix of Power/Progressive/Symphonic. I was merely talking about how it sometimes feels weird to qualify bands like Iron Maiden or Black Sabbath as metal, I guess bands you mention don't sound like all those that I checked in past several years. | ||
