Iconic/revered bands/artists you just don't "get"

Obviously, can't argue with the fact that reading music doesn't mean shit. I guess I just misjudged your musical snobbery - would've thought the ability to read music was important to your musical orthodoxy.

 

Lol. So true.

 

Also music for 40-something freaks who get kicked out of Cleveland metro department stores for arguing with mannequins

 

Who said I liked smashing pumpkins?

 

which we've established is a figment of your imagination

I don't think you'd come out looking more "open-minded" than me if somebody compared our record collections

Yeah. Heard the guy interviewed on Howard Stern. Seemed like nice guy. And he is successful. But I don't listen to them. Guy had a fcked up childhood apparently.

 

Oh Oh, here we go - 'fucked-up childhood'...'mental-health issues', etc.

Fuckin no-one is accountable for their own shit these days.

 

Who said anything about accountability? Guy is not a criminal or something. Wtf are you talking about Walter? This guy did not build the railroads.

 

Most of these fucktards blame their life/mistakes/whatever on the above...

 

Yes. The Left has created a culture of weakling soy-boys.

 

Corgan is actually a classic self-pitying libertarian type

 

Kanye West. Constantly hear this guy is a genius, keep asking what makes him one, and nobody can answer sufficiently. And it's always like it's this really obvious, unquestionable thing, like "ok, he is a bit of an idiot, but there's no denying the man is a genius". Do not get it AT ALL. Nothing against hip hop, there are some excellent producers who do interesting things, and that's the point, he doesn't even do that. Like, he doesn't even use samples in an interesting way, he'll just add another drum pattern over it or keep the instrumental exactly the same, anybody can do that shit. I've listened to most of his albums too, I don't think it's right to criticise something you haven't heard, so I've given him a chance, just don't get it.

 

You're not wrong at all.

He s as far from being shit as he is from being a genius.
(no pop star is a genius)

 

I can not name you one Kanye West tune.

 

I can name one - 'Gold Digger' - his big hit and that was dogshit an' all.

 

his message is 'i started with nothing and was molested, and still became a millionare...so the plebs have no excuse'
SO YOU'RE SAYING YOU AGREE WITH THAT?

 

I guess i would have to include paul mccartney in this category for me but, much like led zep, ive never felt like i didnt get him - i just find him naff. I dont care if you've a genius for melody if youre a fucking head-cocking lame-o.

 

do you like Beatallica

 

??

 

That video is fucked up. Lol.

 

Some of these are actually great! Very pixies

 

I like this guy who does a similar thing:

 

Did I ever send you the Come As You Are one before? It's genius

 

yes, I believe so .., it's hilarious

 

did you get into Pantera?
