I'm a Music Snob

[Susan]

I would never say RATM sucks, lol. They are my favourite political rap-rock band! Also, yeah I usually alaborate on why I think a band sucks. But some banRAB, it's just too obvious that by me pointing it out, is just a waste of breathe...err type (?)

 

[Say it like it is]

SounRAB like quite a few people don't even know what 'pretentious' means.

^^:laughing:

 

[auggie]

lol this is a great thread

 

[nat think]

F*ck no. I listen to far too much **** to be considered a snob.

 

[Hybrus]

I'm a meraber mainly because I love music, and am always willing to hear new music. I am not bothered in the slightest if people don't like what I listen to, they should'nt listen then should they?!

 

[PeoplePerson978]

Yay for the music snobs! Even though we're all here on the internet when probably half of us need to converse more with some actual people you can see.:thurab:

 

[Jester4584]

I use to be a snob but nowadays I have no shame and don't give a fuck what anyone listens to.

 

[Triscuit]

oh definately!!

 

[Natasha&Jose]

I came here because I couldn't talk to anyone about the music I was listening to in real life...

 

[hawaiianbrandee]

Haha yea iv noticed that. For those who have been continually using it wrong, its about the same as pompous. Or to demand a position of distinction, hen unjustified.

And thats the best def i can give.

 

[Stressed out Groom]

Idk if im a snob or not

 

[PaTH oF RagE]

this piece of **** wont let me post what i keep trying... just keeps freezing

 

[megar]

You can be a snob and listen to ****.. as long as you admit that its terribly bad but insist its great in a ironic sense.

 

[Mohanad]

that's contageous by the way, i started listening to some of your recommendations, got very into it...admittadely havent listened to any in a while, and i was quite the same.

I get the feeling most people who spend an excessive ammount of time on an internet forum entirely based around music and music discussion would have to be atleast a little snobbish when it comes to the topic.

 

[Itachi 24]

You have a good last.fm list, Larkrise.

Good job.

 

[Mackmizzled]

I wouldn't claim to be a music snob, but when it comes to Northern Soul or rare 60's R&B I can get extremely anal.
On those subjects I would claim to be a connoisseur...snob NO!

The best definition I ever read of being pretentious about music was on last.fm

This group is pretty much the same as all the other ones, except the other ones suck.

Do you know more about music than any of your frienRAB, and pontificate about banRAB they never heard of at the drop of a hat?

Do you see yourself as a crusader determined to convert the masses to awesome music?

Do you badger people into buying albums you like that you know they'll probably hate?

Do you hate it when people stick to one genre, or categorize artists incorrectly, and in doing so, write them off as worthless?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, this group is for you. This isn't for people who don't listen to Elliott Smith because they think he's emo. This isn't for people who proudly admit that they listen to "indie pop." This isn't for those *******s. This is for pretentious, self-deprecating *******s, and we're all going straight to hell. Sing it.



I found myself saying yes to all of those questions, but I didn't join the group cause that would be an even more pretentious thing to do.

I've been using that excuse to listen to Judas Priest for years.
