Spill Your Guts II: What You Think About MB Members' Taste In Music

They fit the same desciption and invalidate your point.



I was taken as rather coherent before that last post, and I suspect Janszoon was asking me to make a move before he was found presumptive and flat-footed in his argument. I don't think he didn't understand.

Don't you have some terrible music to enjoy?



Half the time I resign myself to the understanding that my awesome cerebral prowess can only be with stood by pretending you [people] don't understand me. Which only really hammers home the point.

I operate at a higher plane, and I've come to terms with my own genuis. Its lonely at the top, but frankly I wouldn't want to be surrounded by half-wits anyhow.

Just the same, I appreciate your 85% support.
 
I think the person with the most mysterious taste in music to me is Freebase. I have no idea what areas his taste goes to. I know he likes IDM and Deftones, but other than that he could be totally into New KiRAB On the Block for all I know. What I do know is that every time he throws me a rec it enRAB up being really stellar music.
 
Darkest Hour-open up your mind a bit, just listening to metalcore and Eminem can't be healthy

Mirrorball95-good taste, pretty similar to mine, got me in to Neil Young now :D

jackhammer- i could probably ask him for a reccomendation to any genre and get a handful of artists

sleepy jack-seems like kind of an indie elitist at times

khfreek-great taste in music, especially fo this age

coryallen2-seems pretty open to other genres, and should talk more about his musical tastes


i'll add more if i can think of any
 
It's not just about finding obscure music. That's elitist and not what I am about. I just happen to find music that slips under the radar regardless of the era and I am not as thick skinned as others and get annoyed when I feel as if I am accused of living in the past etc.

Rant over :(
 
I won't be enticed by your advances, as that would result in you stop posting.

Metallica are legendary? I dunno about that. They were once a respectable band that should've given it up years ago, just like U2. Should've fucked off years ago.

Meh, mixed bag.
I don't like The Mars Volta, I slightly prefer ATDI.
Muse are good.
ALL R&B? Do you mean all contemporary R&B or just R&B full stop?
Most Emo is shit, I'd say over 90%. Bits and bobs out there that's pretty good though, but not really my thing.
!!! are a bit rubbish.
TV On The Radio are okay, not 'love worthy' though.
Maroon 5 are God awful.
Ryan Adams is a little boring.
Never been able to really get into Cake, probably listened to the wrong album or summin' but what I heard I thought was poor.
Drive-By Truckers, same as Cake really. Picked an album at random, Pizza Deliverance I think and it wasn't bad... but I didn't feel the need to listen to them again.


But you like Modest Mouse, QOTSA and Nick Cave so you're not all bad.
 
Dreww?

As a prog fan I know the value of repeated listens.

I downloaded a Glenn Branca album, I've listened to it 2 or 3 times. It's something I can appreciate but it's just not something I seriously enjoy listening to.

I'm not knocking avant garde music itself so much as the pretentious art culture surrounding it, and that is clearly just my subjective opinion. I dig John Zorn and Fred Frith, at least.



C'mon, now you're just analizing me to death, that was clearly a subjective statement, when I said I don't find it aesthetically pleasing, I mean I don't find it aesthetically pleasing, if others do that's fine, I never said it wasn't art, I just personally think conceptual art is horrible.

I guess I should join the Stuckist movement or something. :laughing:



I think avant garde purists look at progressive rock in a way similar to how post-modernists view acadamic art.

That is, not very favorably.
 
i didn't know about them till i joined this site and i'm gonna be 20 in a few months :(

but yeah, i'd say it depenRAB on where as well as who you're asking, like said before they're not very popular stateside and tbh i know that if i ask a bunch of my frienRAB they'd be drawing blanks
