Darren, what YOU are is unspeakable. But anyway, yeah I do that - mix up
labels & comparisons,
anything to get the point across, basically.
 
Here, see if you can figuure out what band/album I'm describing here:
"Imagine being chucked head-first
into a wood chipper". Pretty obvious really - you'll kick yourself.

But in that case I'd rather say who they're similar to, as it gives the
person I'm talking to a better "in".  If someone's not into Sunn O))),
describing them as Doom Drone will be meaningless. If I say that they're
like Bloody Panda, they'll ... not have heard them either. Oh.



  

Play stuff to people. That's the answer. You get a personal investment in
selecting things you'll think people might like. Mixtapes. It allows the
people to not restrict themselves to the faction they're in danger of
aligning themselves with.



  

See - I like (say) Regina Spektor. I also like (say) Killing Joke and (say)
Ultravox and (say) Depeche Mode. What category do I fit into? Am I a
new-romantic-synth-pop-female-singer-songwriter-industrial-goth-post-punkeri
st? Or am I me?

Labels are a weird one 'cos I hate that categorisation & yet use them when I
need to

communicate my thoughts of a tune/band to someone else. A Necessary Evil.



  

As Clive once said, "If only they'd facking label things."

Fair do's, Pete. I laughed.



  

Sometimes it's easy to disappear up your own arse trying to classify music,
which is why I think mostly you shouldn't (apart from the good / crap
thing).



  

In Oliver's defence, however, I think it's slightly different when you need
to program a radio show with genre-based music.

Oliver: Are these a Doom drone band, or are they perhaps a New Doom Drone
Band ?

Are they a Metal Doom Drone band or a Death Metal Doom Drone band ?

Are they an Old school Doom Drone band or are they a New wave of Doom Drone
band or maybe they are even a New wave of Death Metal Doom Drone band .

  If they are a New Wave of Old Skool Death Metal Doom Drone band
revivalists and therefore that makes them in a new category, then I may give
them a listen , but if they are New Wave of Old Skool Death Metal Doom Drone
band non revivalist , then I wont bother because that is so *last year *
