To Help Combat The Spread Of Fanboyism On MusicBanter (quote, nomination)

starrynight · 05-02-2011, 06:21 AM

I'm definitely not a fanboy as I don't try to listen to all the music bands have done. I've no doubt all groups have done bad music somewhere. My preference is definitely to listen to as wide a number of musicians of possible (and hopefully quite alot of variety) and just pick out what I like. I'm definitely more a fan of music than of specific bands/singers.

The Clash
Made some awful decisions....like Cut The Crap. Some awful songs on Sandinista! like Career Opportunities and Mensforth Hill.

No. But this thread is for people who have favorite bands to rip them with one sentence. Did you bump this thread just to create a debate about the necessity of having favorite bands?

Sonic Youth
I've never cared for or liked the good portion of your lyrics. And your last album, Eternal, sucks.
(OK, that's two sentences)

Can you try making some less verbose tracks, like... :45 second songs, or 2 min. songs at half speed or something... so that I wouldn't need to listen and take notes and do research to understand what you're on about?

Can you guys seriously stop coming up with the most ridiculous names I have ever heard for songs.

Metallica

Just stop. You guys already have more money than you will ever need just pack it quits and go home. Stop ruining your legacies.

That's funny, my biggest gripe about Immortal Technique is that he's too simple and obvious with the way he expresses things.

I searched for fanboyism and this is the only thread that came up with that in the title. If you are very strict here as far as what is discussed in this particular thread I can always create another I suppose.

Well , this thread is for fun, the way I see it. If you want to have an in depth discussion about whether it is necessary to have favorites and what does it mean to your listening habits, then, yes, you're welcome to create another thread.
