Only quote the part that you can counter ftw

You fail, the girls story didn't hold up in court it didn't even hold up since it changed with every single person she talked to. So just shut up.

Björk - Vespertine

I guess Bjork is really great if you like cute Icelandic girls that sound like retards and make really annoying music that they try and pass of as "experimental," but she just really annoys me. The few listenable songs she has are the ones that either venture pretty close to pop territory or aren't total "wow, look how interesting and edgy my music is!" BS. I don't get why Bjork's music is rated so highly by so many people, it's really no better than any other supposedly "talentless Indie crap" as boo boo likes to call it.

Nah, just kidding.

Nick Drake - Pink Moon

I won't do it song by song... Because theres nothing that distinguishes their awfulness or lack of any kind of effort. But heres the sound of Nick Drake, take a homeless hack with no musical experience whatsoever, giving him a crappy un-tuned accoustic and some sleeping pills and ta-da. This piece of sh*t.

I have heard Drakes voice being described as everything from beautiful to etheral. Unfortunately this is incorrect. Try a foghorn that barely works anymore. He has a tone of a cow and the passion of someone who just wants to get it over with and dosen't care about the end product at all. He sounds half asleep the whole damn time, in terms of vocals, guitar playing and songwriting. This is the most lazy album I have ever heard in my life.

Don't forget the spirtual mumbo jumbo bullsh*t lyrics that people only like to criticize when its done by people with instrumental and vocal talent, but when its done by this assh0le it must be a masterpiece.

Why does Modest Mouse have to be mentioned in 90% of MB threads?

To be fair, its not like I changed my opinion of her or anything.

Or you for that matter.

The funny thing is that you don't even know what I listen to but yet on random occasions attack my "indie elitist pseudo intelligent pitchfork loving ideologies" that really just don't exist. I don't know what you have against me really. I dig a few mm albums?

The Bends is 50 or so minutes of grovel that isn't accessible. It's monotonous.

What the fuck seriously, Eminems music is basically all him bitching about how his mom mistreated him, writing annoying songs about his daughter and killing his wife. Hes way more whiny than Tupac.

Indeed he is much more whiny than Tupac. But he is very lyrically talented as well - I prefer him to Tupac as a rapper.

I like Pink Moon, even if it can get a bit repetitive in parts.

But I do think that singer/songwriters (especially ones who are dead) get ridiculously overhyped though.

You don't like the Bends? You sure?

How is Nick Drake overhyped?
