I already talked about hip hop in this thread mr detective You might be curious to find out that some of my opinions on classical music developed about 20 years ago as well, since I am not 500 years old and was also not around for the very earliest days of that genre Maybe quit being a rude aggro cock in the gbs music thread though, that would be my suggestion

If you somehow missed it, Poe's Haunted album is amazing well put together. It's so complete, there's a companion book written by her brother that's a trip and a half.

let it mellow posted:whoever that rear end in a top hat is that poo poo on led zeppelin needs a loving swirly lol. I love Led Zeppelin. I listen to them all the time. But if you don't think any of that poo poo is true then I don't know what to say. One of the funniest music things I ever experienced was when Wolfmother (are they even a thing outside Australia?) got popular. People would try to make it sound like they were a terribly discerning music fan by dismissing them as nothing but a Led Zeppelin rip off. I mean, gently caress yeah they were derivative as poo poo but it's like saying Last Man Standing is worthless because it's a rip off of A Fist Full of Dollars (it is, but that's not why).

Well yeah, A Fistful of Dollars is a rip-off Yojimbo while Last Man Standing is actually an official remake of Yojimbo. Speaking of Wolfmother, have a video of Mike Patton calling them out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKDvJTxZDbA mycophobia posted:Truckin' is the one bad song on American Beauty by Grateful Dead. sorry just spitballin here to get the thread back on track Dude, EVERY song by the Grateful Dead is trash. Like, the only good thing you could possibly say about the Grateful Dead is "Well, at least you're not listening to Phish!" I mean, never mind the fact you're talking about a studio album by band who they themselves said that their studio albums are trash. Here's a good question... who has the worse fans? The Grateful Dead, or TOOL? Julius CSAR fucked around with this message at 05:32 on Dec 17, 2018 |

A lot of people who say this type of poo poo don't even bother listening to most of the albums or artists completely. Like people referring to Queen as dad rock despite their first two albums being some of the gayest poo poo ever committed to vinyl. And it rules. I dunno how a bunch of dudes making hard rock songs about fairies and poo poo is considered dad rock considering it violates the "No gay stuff" rule.

raton posted:I don't know if I heard that one, I have some of the older ones where they revolutionized the idea of "let's do in 52 bars what other similar musicians do in 6" but they were okay and the music video to around the world was on Beavis and Butthead I forget where I read it but I've seen daft punk described as the best 30 seconds of music you'll listen to six times. Random Access Memories is good but I find myself going back to Alive 2007 when I feel the need for Daft Punk. Neither meet your definition of perfect though.

Julius CSAR posted:all of this pretty loving great, but I gotta have a hard pass on the Deftones. I'll just never be able to reconcile that loud rear end band with a singer who is somehow so boring as to put you to sleep. No idea how old you are, but this might be an age thing? I experienced the White Pony release cycle as an impressionable music-hungry high school student, and at the time, it really hit the spot. The album and its singles had a different, much-preferable kind of drama going on than any of its peers on the radio, dark and pretty/atmospheric rather than whiny post-grunge sad-sack bullshit (Creed, Staind, etc.) or standard angry and trashy nu-metal. It's definitely not a perfect album and it's pretty dated-sounding production-wise nowadays, but I still enjoy listening to it from time to time, and I don't think it's entirely due to nostalgia (thought I'm sure that's a big part).

I was a freshman in high school when that album came out, so no it's definitely not an age thing. I was into a lot of just normal old punk rock at the time, so I may have just have just not been in the right musical mind at the time to get into it, but even then with everything else I've listened to (epsc shoegaze, post-rock/hardcore kind of stuff) it's still just never piqued my interest. I will absolutely agree that they are way, WAY better musically, technically, just about everything, than their immediate peers (Creed, Staind, etc) Even though they're very different groups, I often kind of lump them in with Mindless Self Indulgence since they were another band at that time that all my friends were into but I just didn't like. I remember people trying to get me into MSI by saying "Everyone in the band is bi-sexual, isn't that AWESOME?!" and I was just like, I mean good for them, but uh that has no bearing on whether or not that make good music, which they don't Julius CSAR fucked around with this message at 22:27 on Dec 17, 2018 |

I saw one of the shows for The Seer tour and Gira and crew wrapped it up with an unfinished version of Bring the Sun / Toussaint L'Ouverture from the next album that I liked, it involved Gira slashing at his neck with his thumb and going Aghk! frenchily between Egalite! Faraternite! etc It was a good show he had this Tarzan monkey man on drums and introdued him as such, he demanded that Tarzan hit the drums as hard as he could in a trance like state and at one point Tarzan became fixated on it and Gira threw a towel at him to bust him out because he was trying to pull everybody along to the next part of the song and Tarzan was a-THUM-a-THUM-a-THUMmming along unstoppably, each Thum done by raising both arms as high as he could and bringing the sticks down from there There was also a weird German on the lap steel raton fucked around with this message at 00:12 on Dec 18, 2018 |

Dinosaur Jr. - You're Living All Over Me (hard for me to admit as I like Farm best) Meat Puppets - Up On The Sun. Awesome and timeless, even if everybody says II is their best. GBV - haha who knows, but I will say I think there are at least 20 Robert Pollard albums better than Bee Thousand, so if you think that's good, dig in. Blondie - Parallel Lines. I'm sure others have said that about this album, and it deserves it.
