A music genre that was drug-induced, the first big experimental band was Pink Floyd. The experimental sound is a sound that is more otherworldly. Pink Floyd had songs like Comfortably Numb, One of These Days, The Great Gig in the Sky that had a sound like being lifted into a dream.
People confuse psychedelic with experimental, but psychedelic formed years after Pink Floyd broke up.
In the 21st century The Mars Volta came, with a skilled guitarist and a singer with a strange voice that fit their strange style. they had dedicated an album titled "De-loused In The Comatorium (an auditorium is a place for listening so a comatorium would be a place for being in a coma)" to their friend who went into a coma, came out of it then commited suicide. The album is from the point of view of a fictional character. He goes through battles in his mind while he is in his coma and he wakes up and then kills himself.
Example from song "Roulette Dares(The Haunt Of)":
Specter will lurk
Radar has gathered
Midnight nooses from boxcar cadavers
The Mars Volta's experimental sound is like Pink Floyd's except they are hundreds of times more experimental than Pink Floyd and their kind of sound is different. Instead of being lifted into a dream you are being thrown into another world and pulled extremely fast by and invisible force. But in other songs like Televators, its like standing in the middle of someone elses dream and everything in that dream you have never seen before, except it seems real, and everything echos quietly. Other songs are just extremely weird, the cutting edge of weird. Their sound can be so weird to people that not many people like them. But if you are a Pink Floyd fan and hunger a lot for the experimental sound that Pink Floyd has, and it just isn't enough to satisfy your experimental tastes, then you will love The Mars Volta.
Someone said The Mars Volta "throws lyrics together to sound creative". If he looks at the words he could see that they rhyme, and it is not as easy to "throw lyrics together to sound creative" as it is to write regular ones, I've written lyrics before. All the stuff The Mars Volta writes is in metaphor, its not thrown together.

Get the experimental music mug.One of the worst kinds of posers. These people pose as hardcore fans for bands, usually to look sophisticated or unique, or cool. But don't actually like the music for the sound, only for how they think it makes them look. Hardcore fan posers usually do memorize songs of the band, just so that they can look like real fans. Hardcore fan posers insult people when they say another band is higher in a certain field then that band. It is because they like the label of the band and it insults them to see the band they feel sophisticated/cool/etc listening to, being insulted. When someone says that one member of one band is better than a member of the band they are posing as a hardcore fan of, they will just retaliate by saying that the band they pose as a hardcore fan of is better, even though the other person didn't necessarily say that.
person: The Mars Volta is more experimental than Pink Floyd.
hardcorefanposer: SHUT THE FUCK UP! PINK FLOYD IS A BETTER BAND THAN THAT BAND! THE MARS VOLTA SUCKS!
person: Stfu, I like Pink Floyd, you're such a hardcore fan poser. I didn't say they were better, now just listen to The Mars Volta and face the fact that they are more experimental.
hardcorefanposer: SHUT UP! YOU'RE GAY!
person: Do you even know how Pink Floyd got their name?
hardcorefanposer: They thought it up randomly.
person: uh no, they took the first names of two blues artists: Pink Anderson, and Floyd Council.

Get the hardcore fan poser mug.A genre of music that appeared in the 90's. It uses elements of Hip-Hop and Hardcore. The style is not Metal, it is associated with Metalcore. Examples of Nu-Metal are:
Korn
Linkin Park
Slipknot
Nu-Metal is hated with a passion by Metalheads, yet, without Nu-Metal tons of Metalheads wouldn't exist. Nu-Metal provides a good middle ground for people who like pop music but aren't ready for the growls, and shrieks of Metal. Most people who get into Nu-Metal end up listening to Metal afterwards.

Get the nu-metal mug.Also CRH.
Someone who only listens to Classic Rock and dislikes all modern music.
They usually listen to these bands
- Led Zeppelin
- The Beatles
- The Doors
- Pink Floyd
- The Who
- Jimi Hendrix
- AC/DC
They usually only listen to 2 or 3 of them regularly. Classic Rock-Heads condemn modern music when they probably never heard any due to them listening to Led Zeppelin all day. The only modern band they know of is Fall Out Boy, they usually never heard any of their music but condemn them because another Classic Rock-Head did.
Classic Rock-Heads believe any guitarist past 1990 has no talent. Therefore they have no interest in Tom Morello. They also think Velvet Revolver is bad and say Slash is bad now.
Although Classic Rock is good they think that no other music is good.

Get the youtube whore mug.A state where people say it can be kind of hard to understand us because of the accent. We don't usually pronounce d's in words unless its at the beginning or if we try to. We usually pronounce Maryland "murlin" or "marlin", thats our only difference in speaking so we don't have an accent really.
Maryland has Howard County which is pretty rich and we have Baltimore. And Baltimore isn't ALL ghetto, only the projects is. We have D.C. and I don't know if its ghetto because I don't live there. D.C. is like New York only boring as hell, yeah the fucking white house is there, who cares?! Not me! It's just a fucking building!
Anyway Maryland also has P.G. County which is rough, and very conveniently a catholic high school is voted there. My brother who went there saw a kid get stuck up for his northface and he ran away.
Also we have the greatest 2 towns for living here. Ellicott City (where I live) is the second. AND IT SUCKS ASS! I DON'T EVEN GET HOW ITS UP THERE! Ellicott City is a boring place next to a town with a mall, it also has a high asian population so people don't always get a lot of candy on halloween. The only things to do in Ellicott city is get driven to the mall to hang out with people or go to peoples houses.
Columbia (where I used to live) is the first, it is a pretty kickass place and its next to Ellicott, the population is very diverse and there's a mall and woods near every house so there is always something to do there.
