Wow, FD, I didn't know you wanted to rock and roll all night and party every day.

As for me, I don't really have true rebel music. Probably the closest would be when my friend J.D. came over to a LAN party and asked the question "do you want to listen to death metal or disney music?" or my two years in a row coming back from the warped tour completely out of it. (Contact highs, not the real thing)

parents don't know what i listen to cause i wear headphones ^^

lol. I never took you for a "platform shoes" type of guy FD

My parents are heavily into opera and classical music, so any music other than that was considered "a rebellion"...even freakin' Simon and Garfunkel...prior to my teens, listening to "Mars the Bringer of War" would have been considered radical

But in answer to your question, I suppose the stuff that first began to annoy them was my "aerosmith phase" at the age of 13. Unfortunately for them I soon grew out of it when I discovered the wonderful world of grunge - so they were bombarded with the likes of Babes in Toyland, Silverfish, Screaming Trees, Dinosaur Jr, My Bloody Valentine etc etc.

Saying that, at least they understood roughly where I was coming from with that stuff - when I went through my "the cure phase", that really knocked them for six.

My dad was at the isle of white festival and can be seen on stage in the photo of Jimi's albumn from same event. He had thousands and I literally mean thousands, of vynil albumns covering nearly everything ever done by nearly anybody who ever did it. A child who knows what Mick Fleetwood's Green Manaleshi(sp--bin a while) was and listens to School's Out on the car stereo, full blast with upgraded speakers, in the morning has to listen to Charlotte friggin' Church if he wants to get a rebel rep with his folks. How does a kid stand a snowballs' chance of being ridiculed for being "rebellious" by parents like any normal family while his dad tells where the best "gear" could be found while listening to Iron Butterfly with the volume set to level 11 (that's one louder).

My claim to fame however, and I know my tales will never compete with Groms here, is that one Mr M Loaf dropped a Marshall amp right on top of me when trying to do a tumble as part of his act and pulled me up onto the stage to apologise.

Murderdolls

@druid - lol. thats quite some image! could've been worse i suppose, *he* could have fallen on ya

Parents really never said much about the music I listened to. There was a time, unfortunately, before I was a teen, that I actually liked to listen to Gilber & Sullivan so you might say that the rebellious music I listened to later was in reaction to my own earlier musical preferences.

On the other hand, Jimi Hendrix is still the ultimate.

Sex Pistols and yes I was a punk

interesting question, as for the rebellious youth, and the music to go with it, my folks love Rammstein, me too, so theres little rebellious in that

but I do listen to Rebel Music (The Wolfe Tones, Eire Óg, The Dubliners, Athenrye) but they are more in the Irish variant of Rebel Music.

where I got it from, is another story, which I won't tell here

Quiet Riot.

Cum on feel the noize!!

---"Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast."

as for my parents they were hippies so I really couldnt knock their taste in music, shoot I grew up on pink flod. But like indi said my current taste is in rebellion of what I listened to twelve years ago lol. I now find that the older I get the harder my music gets, Of cource when I finally get into a band I find out they no longer exist.

Blessed Be to all those that still dream of the flight to the stars.

quote " You wouldn't like my Happy Place it is full of blood, carnage, and destruction" :ME

your parents listen to rammstein, loc? ...woof.

I can't remember what my parents were into into... My dad's gotten into old style rock and roll and rockabilly.

I find that the sounds of one generation usually end up in the opposite style in the other. Nirvana probably wouldn't exsist as it did if Abba didn't make it big. But then the Disco backlash might not have happened, and disco could have turned into what's now known as italo disco (Ishkur's Guide to Electronic Music - for those who are unfamiliar with italo disco. look under house.)

But that didn't happen. Nirvana happened and Cobain is dead. Such is life.

But yeah, the first time my dad said "I'm not a fan of this type of music" probably was Static-X, which was at the start of last year. I had 'rebelled' in the sense, but I soon got over it. It seems like a very childish thing looking back. Ah well, could be worse.

A small side note, my dad didn't even say "I'm not a fan of this music" (his classic phrase to say: turn this down i dont like it) to Rage Against The Machine... how odd.

You Wanna Revolution?

@Druid: difficult to shock such a Dad (btw: could be me ) - maybe you should have listened to ... Abba, The Osmonds, Milli Vanilli, Boney M.

I am tempted to turn the tables of this topic:
My interest in music - unlike most/many other people - did not stop at the age of 25. That's why I still buy new and/or experimental music. Believe me: you can TERRIBLY shock young people with the latest CDs of Björk, Happy the Man, Univers Zéro.

We could play a little game:
Download one of the many version of "America" Keith Emerson performed in the late 60's/early 70's with "the Nice". Listen to the part in the middle with the "screaming organ-humming stick-solo".
Or grab the 2-LP-set of "Ummagumma" from Pink Floyd (Released October 25, 1969, wow, that is exactly 36 years ago!).
I bet such sounds still can "shock" today youngsters who listen to MTV or Adult Rock stations.
