I'm glad Beefheart was the one that did this for me since he's undeniably great.

Incest is hot though.

He tackles many things with proficiency but unfortunately he also stamps his personality on everything. My distaste for this music isn't because it doesn't appeal to me artistically. It's because I don't like Devin personally. Even his proficiency is annoying. It's like if this guy walked in a room you would immediately wish he didn't exist. His existence is an affront. Even his name repulses me. I don't even enjoy hating him. 1/10.

Another stupid comment from the person who brought you "this album is unassailable".

I swear, if I had made this post Frownland would be all over me, and he'd be right. What does it even mean? You wish he didn't exist? Are you all right in the head?

Have you heard the album?

Four times so far.
I have no problem with people not liking it - to each their own - but this sort of frothing at the mouth personal attack on the guy is offensive to me. Imagine if I listened to, say, Zorn and said that? Or one of the albums he likes, like maybe Patsy Cline? At least when I don't like something I give a reason, and I give the album a chance. His comments are just, well they're just offensive, there's no other way of putting it. He didn't even try to talk about the music, even to say he hated it. It's just a typical OccultHawk post: I hate this therefore it's crap.

And I guarantee, if I had posted that you know damn well you'd be kicking me in the nuts and telling me to "consider the appeal" or at least not be a big baby, or one of your other pearls of wisdom. I wouldn't accept that kind of crap from anyone - not you, not Batty, not even me for ****'s sake. If he hated the album, fine, say that. But you can't go dissing the man's talent and being offended by his mere presence. Sure it was probably all in jest but it's a pretty pathetic post with no semblance of tolerance for a different view to his. In other words, a classic OccultHawk "I hate Islam" sort of post. I don't even know why I'm surprised. But I am. I thought he had a little more class than that.

It really is THAT bad.

Beefheart taught you to love great music. There's no way anyone ever had a comparable experience with this **** no matter how bad their taste is. You can't get ****ed by a limp dick.

Oc is an unhinged asshole and that's why we love him.
