I rarely ever talk about music with anyone in the real world, unless it's with people I have met from here. I'd rather discuss porn and people than music. |
Right now?
How every so called Indie band sounds the same. They all sing with British accents and it's just terrible. |
Hate: I don't have the money to buy all the music I need.

Oh and also this new thing where the singer "sings" some quirky lyrics that don't rhyme or have any rhythmical significance in relation to the song. I listen to Triple J a lot, and they never stop playing those kind of songs.
If you've heard Thou Shalt Always Kill by Dan Le Sac or I'll Kill Her by Soko You'll know what I mean. |
Love - Listening
Hate - Reading long posts about it |

I love the fact that my hearing is so fucked up from the MBV gig that I can't hear the shit spewing from the radio that is on at work.

It was probably something to do with trying to invoke a heirarchy of anger in music which is rationally untenable and largely hyperbolic at odds with the generally very personal associations of 'anger' within music. Viz, I hear Black Flag and hear bored Americans. I hear other things and hear rage. Doesn't mean it's there for you or absent for me, just it's a bit of a non-sequitur. I should've thought that much was obvious. |
It wasn't just anger, more just pure intensity and genuineness than anything.

I actually love this. I never run out of stuff I like. |

'Intensity' and 'genuineness' still mean nothing lad. Not laying into you or 'owt, just suggesting that not everyone agrees with you. 'Genuineness' really means fuck all. I've met a handful of big bands (no name-dropping, I'm afraid) and most successful/ career musicians are entirely honest, earnest, and genuine about what they do, regardless of whether that come through to you as an individual. I have absolutely no doubt that Celine Dion genuinely believes the music she makes to be amazing and true and genuine and 'good'. |

I get what your saying.
I don't know, maybe I'm just one of those idiots who thinks everything was better way back when. There is good music now, just very little of it hits me like most of those old albums do. |
I don't know, modern music trends confuse me. People adore John Mayer in the popular world, and despise him underground. Jeff Buckley is virtually ignored by pop listeners, and worshipped underground. In reality, they're pretty equally talented and not all that different stylistically. It's not about "good" or "bad" or even "style" anymore. There are too many elements that affect us unknowingly.
