I liked Infest, their debut album. Their second, lovehatetragedy was almost as good.

Same thing that happened to 30 Seconds To Mars, Linkin Park, and countless others. They mainstreamed their sound. Muse is another good example. Albums that followed Absolution were garbage.

Papa Roach’s last resort was great in the 90s other than that…what did they have?

Papa Roach had a ton of songs I really liked, but they did change their style over time. Some of their newer stuff is pretty good, but they have a few “radio songs” now.

I liked their old stuff. Guess I’m a tool as well? Music snobs make me snicker, somehow they always stay on top of the trends and somehow never listen to anything mainstream. It’s like they have the magic ear.

Guys, I listened to Papa Roach when I was like 12-14. My excitement was mostly out of nostalgia.

If you think that me putting 103.3 on my radio in my car on my lunch hour is an indication of my taste in music, you’re retarded.

I would actually consider myself a music snob, and not in the way all of you guys do with your Indy Rock and Dubstep.

Music is a matter of opinion, like much of life. Telling other people how the music they like sucks is retarded. Telling someone their car is gay because you don’t like it is retarded. Calling people “hipsters” because you don’t like how they dress is stupid.  
To some the point of music is energy, not falling on every fucking word and trying to get all introspective or some shit. I think Morrisey and alot of the snob types taste in music sucks but I don’t go around telling them that. They are entitled to their opinion.

I hate radio stations so badly that when I upgraded my headunit in the focus I purposely did not purchase any of the antenna adaptors and solely use my iPod with 5000+ songs on it.

there are many bands i dont personally like, but i can appreciate as artists, what they do, and why the people who like them like them. i instantly judge people when they tell me they like shit, guess that makes me an asshole :gotme:
