Enrique Iglesias and The Pretenders in the kitchen, Mozart in my room.
How confusing.

You familiar with 'hardcore', Susan?
If not, make no attempt to find out.
Pretenders in the kitchen sounds OK.
Enrique Iglesias? I must be thinking of Julio.

Hardcore, what's hardcore? I'm thinking porn but that can't be what you mean. I would google it if I cared enough, Sigismund, so yes you're right I won't be making any attempt to find out... unless you'd care to explain, which would be nice but perhaps not your style...? Isn't Enrique related to Julio somehow?

Discoursing on pornography here is intriguing, but I'm afraid hardcore is entirely a form of music favoured by (some of) the young.
The vocal style distinguishes it, a sort of Germanic roar, with music that reminds one of a bus smashing into a wall.
Sometimes this music can be heard coming from my daughter's room.
These hardcore people have found a way of offending against their parents' values...really ugly music and stickers on their cars saying 'Drugs are for sluts and losers'.
I congratulate them for finding something that will piss me off.

They're certainly more fun to read about than to listen to.
From Wikipedia.....
Ancient HistorySan Francisco's Dead Kennedys formed in 1978 and released their first single "California Über Alles" in 1979. By the time they released the In God We Trust, Inc. EP in 1981, Dead Kennedys were playing very fast tempos. Circle Jerks’ first album (recorded in late 1979, released 1980) features several songs with very fast chord changes and tempos.
Meanwhile in Europe.....
In much the same way, anarcho-punk bands such as Crass, Icons of Filth, Flux Of Pink Indians and Rudimentary Peni had little in common with American hardcore other than an uncompromising political philosophy and an abrasive aesthetic.
But this is from ages ago.
I don't know what these people are called nowadays.

I see. I asked my daughter (13) about it and she had no idea what it was, so thank god. She still likes Avril Lavigne although some of her stuff is a bit beyond the beyond for me.
> The vocal style distinguishes it, a sort of Germanic roar, with music that reminds one of a bus smashing into a wall.
> Sometimes this music can be heard coming from my daughter's room.Talk about hard on the nerves, she must be a mess. Imagine the state she's creating for herself, better to stay out of that all right, so my room is still my sanctuary, the place I can go listen to Mozart and be temporarily in love with living.
> These hardcore people have found a way of offending against their parents' values...really ugly music and stickers on their cars saying 'Drugs are for sluts and losers'.Well now, i don't know that the paretns' values are so utterly different from what the kids are proving out. Because their values are directly related to how well we've instilled Ours, and how dearly we hold them. the values, and the children. So yeah, what goes around comes around and unfortunately we all have to deal with the fallout by being vociferous in our demands for a different mentality.
> I congratulate them for finding something that will piss me off.
Yeah, well, what doesn't piss Me off is the challenge.

i used to get into the dead kennedys and crass :) the only bumper sticker i had on my car read 'my box, my choice' my parents assumed i was a lesbian, and i often told them i was.
for some reason, my son really enjoys hard rock, jsut like his dad. stone temple pilots (gosh, they aren't even around anymore, damn it!), danzig (that really gets him moving!!), and the misfits are among his favorites (oh yeah, not to mention alice in chains).
my son has really good taste in music :) when i play prince or micheal jackso, he simply places his hands over his ears and shakes his head no!
oh boy, i can't wait til he's older and really finds music that makes me angry :)
but, at least he can handle the good stuff (not that i don't enjoy alice in chains, misfits or danzig, ect..), like cash and hank sr. but, the harder the music, the ore he moves his butt!!!
silly boy! i think we listened to too much hard rock while he was growing in my belly!
sily boy who likes to rock,
stuns his mother, when he drops
his butt to the floor
and he won't stop
shaking his booty
til i pop
the music out
of the player
then he thinks
i'm a hater!hmmm, that little rhyme was pretty easy :)
