Was that guy not joking when he said that it's ok for Kendrick Lamar to be sexist because millions of women like his music? Sorry, I'm on SA so I can't tell when people are being ironic or just stupid. I assume just stupid

I think it's OK for Kendrick Lamar to do stuff you think is sexist if millions of women like it.

I mean the entire economy of this country is built on racism, patronizing or otherwise. It just galls me that we're being asked to forgive lovely art because it comes from the oppressed, because the same people who like it simultaneously do everything they can to stymie efforts to help the oppressed. Sorry for saying things about stuff here though.

No need to apologize to me, friend.

My sergeant says "LOL, Fuckler, you love that black music so I guess that explains why you only beat down a dozen guys today.

Just listen to disco and never feel bad about anything. It's what I do and it rules.

Those Bee Gees albums when they got to their soul era - Main Course through Spirits Having Flown - are just plain better than anything just about any prog rock or heavy metal band was doing at the same time.

Music tribalism is very silly, of course, but despite that, I have a very difficult time believing that anyone actually enjoys progressive rock.

The worst thing about prog rock and music that focuses on technical skill more than anything else is the people who are insufferable about it. Like "well I would enjoy that band but the guy can't accurately play 64th notes for fifteen minutes solid so they just aren't good enough!" :smug:

I like to bring up the Ramones as a counter example. They were technically speaking awful musicians but incredibly entertaining.

There was an old David Thorpe article that compared that kind of music or metal the artistic equivalent of a secretary that can type really fast.

What was she right about?

Every citadel species was working on their own secret projects and was pursuing their own independent goals even before poo poo completely hit the fan. When disaster struck each species looked to their own, abandoning their supposed equals in the galactic community. They loved their dogs but when the bears were at the door they let them loose and ran the other way.

Humanity was right to put itself first and protect its own interests. Almost everyone else was doing the same the whole time. Complete integration into the galactic community, subservient to the senior species, led to extinctions.

The album as we know it today (as opposed to what it originally was: a collection of singles) is the worst thing that has ever happened in music but, luckily, will be a thing of the past within our lifetimes.

Eh, they were fine through Leave Home, after that it was just kinda meh. AC/DC is the same, after Bon died it was all mediocre.

My unpopular opinion? No band has ever managed more than about ten really good years; that includes the Beatles, Stones, Pink Floyd, Depeche Mode, U2, Radiohead, nobody.

You're right, my bad, should have used a different example. Regardless, they were definitely a spent force at the end.

Fleetwood Mac is kind of an anomaly because there are(at least)* two quite different bands there - early FM doing trad blues like Rattlesnake Shake and later Mac doing gorgeous harmony over Lindsey Buckingham's weird-but-catchy song structures.
The only thing bridging the two are the drummer and bassist, who don't really write the songs.

Neither version managed to make great music longer than ten years.

*and early Seventies Bob Welch FM who made gentle-ish adult contemporary music.

It already kind of is. The music industry was banking on the fact that people would buy an album for the three good songs on it because the gently caress else were they going to do? Because each piece of physical media could only hold X minutes of content albums were basically that amount of music. How much depended on the media.

The internet ruined that. Now you can go on iTunes and buy the one good song for 99 cents instead of shelling out $20 for the whole CD when you just wanted one of the songs anyway. As much as the recording industry likes to whine about how the internet is ruining their profits that's a good thing. They were downright disrespectful toward their customers. A lot of entertainment was, actually; movies would bank on hype trains bringing in the money before word got around that the movie was actually garbage. Now you can find out if a movie is worth watching or not while its first public screening is going on.

It's far more difficult to sell garbage these days.

True to the 'dat. Also psoriasis. Psoriasis is really satisfying to have. Scraping big silvery scales off of my skin is great. Great big scabby flakes peeling off of inflamed tender skin. I hear tell of those who eat their psoriasis scabs but I havent worked up the courage. Such ambrosia is fit only for the gods. Am I worthy?

I'd say Metallica lasted slightly more than 10 years and still put out some good stuff.

Every music discussion is just endless back and forth "the bands i like are the best" "nuh uh mine are, idiot".

It's therefore the most uninteresting topic for conversation aside from talking about your dreams.
