I'll say it again, we need a way to allow listeners to deprecate certain songs and/or bands. Much as I would love to blow my wad requesting a single song every 90 minutes or so, sometimes I would much rather listen to what others are requesting and VETO some really obnoxious bands that I don't consider MUSIC let alone prog.
Lately I've been seeing a lot of Roxy Music. Not that they're bad, but what are they doing on this site? Can we get Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark or Thomas Dolby or Big Country? I would hope not because those groups are not really "prog". So why is Roxy Mediocre Music getting so much air these days?
As for bands that should get univers zero time, how about removing lame nonprog "noise" bands like...
- Henry Cowpie
- Godbarf! You Black Emperor
- Matching Molasses
- Univers Zero
- Oysterchowderhead
- Caravan
- Magma
Let me apologize up front if this offends some fans of these groups. I don't intend to attack you for liking this "music", but I really despise this stuff. When I log on to Aural Moon, I want some relief from the noise of the day. I think if there is something on the playlist that a majority of AM's loyal listeners find offensive, we should remove it from the list or restrict its playing to 4 to 10am Pacific Time (or some equally ungodly hour).
