Bands/Artists whose music you like but know they aren't cool....

From the Daily Mash

 

 

FANS of the band Iron Maiden are somehow unaffected by the self-consciousness epidemic sweeping the Western world.

 

Professor Henry Brubaker of the Institute for Studies said: “In an age where literally everything has to be arch, knowing, witty or retro, Iron Maiden fans somehow still don’t give a fuck.

 

“They just like their thing for what it is, their hairy backs aren’t a statement and when they wear double denim with a bumbag it’s in no way ironic.

 

“The rest of us will never achieve that level of enjoyment of anything, because our stupid aspirations have made us into dicks.”

 

46-year-old Maiden fan Roy Hobbs said: “I go to work doing a job I can’t even be bothered to describe, then I come home and eat either a pie or a casserole with my wife, who is also into Maiden, then we drink a couple of beers and listen to The Number of the Beast.

 

“We’re very happy. Why wouldn’t we be?”

 

Hobbs confirmed that he had no opinion whatsoever about stick-on moustaches, retro gaming, boutique camping, dieting, vintage things, banter, street food, garlic presses or Jude Law.

 

Professor Brubaker said: “Their houses may smell of feet and engine oil but they make everyone else in the country look like pretentious twats.”

 

 

Fuck what's cool. It's all just some arbitrary Emperors Clothes Syndrome bull shit. 

 

I like some people who have been cool but probably aren't considered it now as it's so old and stuff that's never been cool. 

 

For a brief period when grunge was popular cool crossed into my realm but that's been about it.

 

 

Fashion in any form for doing the cool thing and be that the way you dress, what you drive, what you listen to or watch or how you decorate your house is for people who are gullible and easily led. 

 

 

Edit: For the record I am a Maiden fan but that's not the sole reason for the above.

Queen because Freddie was a big gay dynamo and Brian May can shred the shit out of anything. 

Bon Jovi up to Keep The Faith

U2 - The Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby era especially. 

 

Their MTV unplugged was pretty good tbh, loads of fit women all around them as well during it

This. That whole headbutt incident destroyed any cool he had, but the music is still good.

That 'Deeper Underground' song they done for Godzilla was an absolute belter.

 

The bassist was ridiculous as well, Zender, he could fucking play a bit.
