I'm sick of Florentine bragging about his dumb kid's taste in music

He always subtly-not-so-subtly says that his kid loves Black Sabbath and AC/DC as if a five year old is some sort of music critic and is able to absorb the music critically.

His son's favorite band is "papa roach", which being 5 isn't even an excuse. How the fuck does a 5 year old even get into a forgotten shitty band from 2002?

It was his...Last Resort.

Swish.

Home run Chippa!

he really identifies with the lyrics. CUT MY LIFE INTO PIECES

Tssss, it's like hes gettin away with murda or sumthin.

skyhook

Because his dad is a man child who listens to Papa Roach and wears Affliction clothing 10 years after it was popular.

I hope his son becomes a Jersey cop.

doot doot

mr skeltal bless him wif calcyum doot doot

Florentine is a grown man who likes Slipknot. Fuck him and his faggy kid

Florentine sucks shit.

What is his kid, 7?

Are we sure that it's really his kid?

undoubtedly, bam is involved

I was thinking the guy who was cuckolding Florentine's wife.

maybe opie recommended bam to florentine? he does good work apparently, opie's wife had another child recently.

All he's doing is eliminating options for when the kid becomes an awkward teen who hates him. You don't want to listen to your childhood playlist that daddy likes when you just want to die.

Nay that kid will have an epic wigger phase followed by fur pants and edm

Would forcing metal on your child make them rebel by becoming a normal teenager?

I hope Florentine's kid listens to every single bit of Jim's metal music, and then one day the kid says something very Jim Florentine-like to make his dad feel like a total faggot.
It will be endearing.

Is the kid hanging out in NJ strip clubs yet?

I also liked acdc when I was 5 because my dad liked it, then I grew up and developed my own taste of music.

I'm sick of anyone bragging about their taste in music.

It's fucking sound. People who make their life revolve around what they hear tend to look, smell, taste and feel like shit.

Telling someone you like Heavy Metal is the equivalent of saying "My favorite color is black". Who gives a fuck? I like how skittles taste and enjoy massages. Fuck youself.

I'm sick of Flaarenteen

He should be proud- not every kid is in to classical music!

Opie did a funny when doing a live read for steven singer and spoke about Jim's wedding ring.

I hope his shit for brains crotch sprog, ends up addicted to heroin, goes on a crime spree, kills 2 people and gets executed by the state.

Here is an idea for your fucking podcast about things that fucking suck.

Doting fathers suck, they sound emasculated and phony, and they start to develop the same tastes as women..

Do that on your shit for fuck podcast, instead of "Dumb facebook posts" part 234.

It's ok buddy. Not everyone had a dad to play catch with, you aren't the only one.

🎺 🎺

He has nothing else, so let him be.

Quit being a whiney faggot, he's doing his best to show his kid quality talented music (except ACDC and papa roach that shit sucks) instead of raising them on shitty radio Disney bullshit that warps kids young minds.

My first concert was Black Sabbath in 1998 with my dad and I'm grateful for that, If my dad didn't show me good music growing up id be one of those shithead wiggers who thinks Kanye west is a "musical genius"

He isn't doing his best to show his kid quality music.. he is doing his best to show his kid exactly what he, himself, likes. There is plenty of music that isn't Sabbath or Kanye West. This kid won't ever bother listening to music that isn't on the pentatonic minor scale because daddy still thinks Iron Man is a genius song. There are plenty of good Sabbath songs and there are plenty of good AC/DC songs. There are also plenty of amazing songs by bands who didn't exist until a few decades after Sabbath. There is more musical talent in a Ben Folds album than a Sabbath album. You're better off with an eclectic taste in music than just pigeon-holing yourself into only listening to Satan's heavy guitar riffs, maaaaan!

What I'm saying was Sabbath was the beginning for me, and inspired me to play guitar, bass and drums, I've played in hardcore metal bands to playing intensely hard Zappa covers.

He is showing his son the basics of music, he'll grow and discover more down the road. We need younger kids to understand the talents of writing complicated music for themselves instead of writing music for fame, money and pussy.

Oh I get that. My father was also a sabbath fan and sabbath was one of the first bands I ever liked (I'm 30 now for reference). He also liked bands like the clash and the cars and the hooters too though which exposed me to different kinds of music. I learned guitar probably because I wanted to play the intro to Crazy Train when I was younger but hearing other types of music was important.

I'm 30 too, and started playing guitar for the same exact reason

The intro riff was amazing but then the song gets kinda gay. It goes from badass to pop in an instant. I like a song like Bat Country by Avenged Sevenfold because it starts out amazingly badass and then stays that way through the song.

Don't you shit on Kanye

when that simpleton can read and play THIS then MAYBE ill consider giving him some respect.

You do realize that the vast majority of contemporary rock and metal artists from the 20th century only know how to read tablature right?

Yeah, so did I, I read tab most of my life, but when I realized you can't transcribe other instruments with the same tabs I decided to learn sheet music. People need to push themselves harder instead of taking the easy route by sampling other instruments/songs and relying on computer software.

Ya that's a fair point, can't disagree with you there
