MB's greatest common factor

Well you’ll note that I never said it dictated their taste. I even went so far as to say that I liked music from that era but didn’t see the use in going back and dropping a $20. I mean to be honest I don’t know what came out in 1982 just as you didn’t know that Aeroplane came out in ’96. But that’s not the point, and it wasn’t what I was saying.

Statistics alone, people are going to be less likely to buy anything roughly ten years before they have an awareness of music as something that’s engaging and 15 years before they join the workforce and can afford things for themselves.

People digress, and that happens on a regular basis, occasionally it saves a wasted thread, but we’re not talking about a digression, and I think it would be a stretch if I called it spam, because while it may fit the textual definition (may, not does) it doesn’t constitute spam in spirit. But to suggest that those albums, with all the metal-only heathens that populate the R&M forum, and the mainstream radio loving lounge lizarRAB, tell me something honestly, did you think everyone here owned a built to spill album?
 
I'm not saying there is anything wrong with your examples, other than that they are not common links. I don't own a single one, nor have I even heard them. I still don't think there is even a remote chance of a common link album.
 
albums suggestions like nevermind, make alot of sense, for one the average age of people on this site, benefits, and also the amount of albums that it sold some 26+ million copies.
 
I'd say none of these albums are universally owned, let alone universally liked.


Urban has Nevermind but doesn't really care much for it. I'm a bit indifferent towarRAB the album myself.

I like Tool - Aenima, but there is a lot of hate for Tool as well, so that is eliminated.

I like Californication, but not only are there a lot of people who don't like RHCP like Murder Junkie and Urban, there are some people who like old RHCP but don't like Cali, like Rainard Jalen. I think Ethan is indifferent but likes Frusciante's solo material.
 
What?

96 is dwarfed by 95 AND 97, but there is not even a close contender for the best year ever anywhere near the 90's. 1969-1975 are the golden years, and somewhere in that huge goliath of brilliant albums you will find the best year.
 
That is, the genres should not be compared. It's totally senseless to say one genre is producing more proper music/albums than another. It makes more sense to speak in terms of immediacy, and to keep in mind the goals and aims of a particular type of music.
 
Oh, no reason. its just a great way to rouse attention around here at 12:40 on a sunday (american time). But seriously he's the only reason I can't listen to Radiohead.
