An Infinite Number Of Things That Pisses Me Off About Music

Whatsitoosit · 09-06-2008, 10:41 AM

The only good thing about Queen reuniting was I never got to see Brian and Roger play live together... other then that, I agree, it's not necessary.

Also, being a fan of a black woman's backside... I must say I thoroughly enjoyed that dance

46 : People On Forums Who Cry " Just Because You Listen To Bands Nobody Has Heard Of You Think That Gives You the Right to Enforce Your Opinions On Others".

In a word ...YES

I don't go around listening to weird and obscure stuff just so I can win arguments on a forum , I do it because I enjoy music and want to hear as much different stuff as possible, and quite honestly if all you can do is listen to stuff thats on the radio , TV or only listen to stuff thats sold millions of albums then yes I do feel superior to you. I've made an effort to learn stuff , i've made an effort to find new things. You have the internet as well , there's no reason you can't find them either. Whether it be Chilean techno , Greenland hip hop , obscure Krautrock or post punk albums that never sold more than a couple of hundred copies , i've made an effort to find this stuff and if I find it more exciting , more innovative and just downright better than your alternative rock shite i'm going to fucking say so.

You keep on kidding yourself that there are good things to be found on Stadium fucking Arcadium and trying to convince others that this isn't the same shit they've been churning out for over a decade, you keep on listening to that whiney slaphead Corgan desperately trying to relive past glories. And i'll be checking out more new stuff that you would never even think of looking for when your waiting for that new turd of a Pearl Jam album to drop. So fuck you , enjoy your morose 10 years out of date middle of the road 'alternative rock' and don't start whining when I call it for the out of date shit it is.

Well I disagree with this one too, I mean I do think it's an annoying trait when people shove the fact that they listen to the most obscure music down other peoples throats and especially when they think they have superior taste because of it.

Just because I still like RHCP and Smashing Pumpkins dosen't mean I'm like those stubborn classic rock junkies who are reluctant to seek out new music. I've recently gotten into bands like Battles and Boris and I'm pretty glad I did. I may be a classic rock/proggie first and foremost, but that dosen't mean I'm gonna write off anything just because it's Indie either.

This made me laugh alot. Anyways, an entry i would add(if it hasn't been added already) is people that talk about the technical profficiency of the musicians in bands. Its completely irrelevent.

I just don't think "current" hip hop stands up to the older stuff, it's all ****ty now. They're more worried about selling Ring Tones, and getting on MTV cribs, than making good music, just my opinion though.

I'm quite sure there's alot of hip hop out there that others dig, that i dislike? and it will continue to go that way. I just dont care for it.

I think you've just wiki'd hiphop and cherry picked sone credible acts from the golden age, because if you really liked these acts theirs no way you'd be making moronic, blanket statements like 'all hiphop is ****'.

You sure?

Here it comes

" I don't really like ***Insert Band Here*** but you can't deny their talent and how good they are technically "

Fuck that

Yes I can

The whole point of releasing music is to get people to listen to it. You notice there I said 'release' as opposed to 'make'. If every song you release is just a vehicle to show off your instrument noodling then do I fuck need to give you any credit for that. Doing that in my eyes makes you well practised , not talented.

Talent requires putting that aural masturbation you have endlessly practised into a piece of art where it can be appreciated. What's the point in having impressive solos if everything else surrounding it is a total crock of shit full of cliche after cliche?
If your writing songs with generic song titles and lyrics with absolutely nothing of interest to say about anything , and then putting 10 minutes of guitar wanking in the middle of it it's probably fair to say that maybe you should put the guitar down and try practising something else. Going out & getting some life experience would be a help rather than shutting yourself away endlessly practising your technique would be a start.

If you want to make shit like this keep it in your bedroom and don't expect me to be impressed.

I'm gonna have to think of about 200 things to fill this list if people keep adding their own

Well I was considering making my own ripoff thread but this thread is appropriate enough for my own rants, there will be more.

Urban Hat€monger ? · 09-06-2008, 10:53 AM

I could have got 3 entries out of that rant
