Enthusiastic Hack’s GLOSSARY OF MUSICAL TERMS (Part 3)

Bands & Artists Edition:



The Strokes – A band that sounds less like The Strokes than most other bands these days

Nickelback – A deep, deep mystery. A band that everybody hates, yet sells millions. Who will ever solve this riddle?

Jim Morrison – A song-writer whose apparently profound lyrics read more like bad teenage poetry

The Wiggles – Australia’s biggest musical export after ACDC

New ACDC Song – The same riff they’ve used for the last 30 years with a slight variation

Un-Australian – Saying you don’t like ACDC

Audioslave – Another mystery. A band made up of the most talented members of Rage Against The Machine and Soundgarden, yet doesn’t sound nearly as good as either

Creed – A blessing to every other band in the world, because no matter how bad they are they can still say ‘at least we’re not Creed’

Jeff Buckley – The Mohammad of Triple J. Whenever a DJ mentions his name they must immediately add ‘peace be upon him, that beautiful man.’

Blasphemy – Saying you don’t like Jeff Buckley

Seeing The Light – Finally realising that Jeff Buckley is the most over-rated musician in history

Being Persecuted For Your Beliefs – Telling a group of 30-something women that you hate Jeff Buckley
