An international conspiracy

[The Good Reverend Roger]

Actually as someone who spent 6 years at music college I have every right to judge music and will tell you for fact, that is NOT music.

Whoops.  Please disregard my last post.

None of these sound alike. You might be able to draw comparisons, but they are all in completely different genres. They are also not formulaic in the least with the possible exception of the Akufen song.

Just shut up before you embarrass yourself more regarding music, Latchingdon.

Granted, you have the majority agreeing with you but that is how life is now. Blind to modernism killing the music.

As a cum laude graduate of a music college myself, fuck you.

That is just a horrible thing to say. While My Guitar Gently Weeps being one of the greatest songs ever written, it's close to sacriledge.

Bollocks.  It was proto-emo bullshit, and everyone responsible should be run over with a bulldozer.  Turf up Lennon and Harrison while you're at it, and feed their festering corpses to the dogs.  Shit yeah.

Wow man, just wow.

What?

I'd just like everyone to note those times. HE DIDN'T EVEN LISTEN TO IT.

Way to fucking fail, pal.

[The Good Reverend Roger]

Note to Rev Latchdoor:  Appeal to authority arguments don't fly here.  Well, they kinda do.  As in, "over a cliff".

[The Heretic]

The 60's were a thousand times better than today, what the Hell are you talking about. You're just brainwashed liked the rest of todays generation. The media has led you to believe this rubbish of today is music. The only good band today are The Coral, and guess what? They write 60's style music and record it ALL IN ONE GO like a REAL BAND. Not  in parts on a computer program like most idiots.

When they used reel-to-reel tape recorders in the 60's to edit out bad shit, it didn't matter because the band themselves knew what the fuck they were doing, unlike anyone today. They editied out mistakes, not because they couldn't do it but because they fucked up... unlike nowdays, when the so called artist simply isn't up to the job.

Then, explain to me how they put on live shows? I've been to quite a few concerts where the band made minimal mistakes, if any. Because, you know, they can't perform without their computer crutches, right? Can't uh. Play their own instruments. Got a witty retort for that?

Yes. They still sound terrible, and their "music" is simple, there is no intelligence put into it. Show me someone who uses a computer but can play 20 minute guitar solos or drum solos without fucking up and I'll give them props.

Of course I didn't. I clicked on one for about 5 seconds and thought fuck that. I don't need to listen to rubbish to know what rubbish it is.

But back on subject, my point stands. Jay-Z is rubbish.

This has officially turned hilarious.

[Chief Uwachiquen]

Okay. Terry Bozzio. Drummer. Have you seen his drum kit? The fucker composes music on drums. Music, not just a beat. His drum kit takes a long time to set up, I think I remember it being something like two hours(With an entire crew). He's done entire shows with just his drums. Also did work on Korn's Untitled when their drummer didn't feel up to playing at the time and instead wanted to work on his restaurants.

And as someone who spent six years at college studying hilarity, I have the right to tell you what is and what is not hilarious.

HEY!  You can't laugh at a guy who spent 6 years at a music college!

That's sacrilege or something.

I've never heard of him. Link me a video.
I don't like Korn, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

I find it sad so many people like modern rubbish, but each to their own I guess.
If anything I just feel sorry for you all, because you never had what I had growing up. The chance to see the best musicians in the world playing live progressive rock or heavy metal. Classic rock n' roll bands playing their best.

I'm sorry.

again, "music" is whatever noise the person listening to it decides is music.

being a pretentious Berklee twat gives you no more moral standing to judge what is or isn't music than the rest of us.
