i kinda think we shd focus our energies on being otm in the future instead of worrying about how indie ppl were offtm in the past

why is it "indie dudes" and not "generalist critics"

omar little, Sunday, 30 January 2011 22:36 (thirteen years ago) link

OK, do you guys really want me to explain why I said "indie dudes" because I have a reason

Genesis - ABACAB

...what? You *said* "non indie" right?

Citizen SNPs (Trayce), Sunday, 30 January 2011 22:37 (thirteen years ago) link

because whiney has an inclination towards being inflammatory

lilwayne.quizrewards4u.com (J0rdan S.), Sunday, 30 January 2011 22:37 (thirteen years ago) link

'generalist critics' really like the music of 'indie dudes'

*kl0p* (deej), Sunday, 30 January 2011 22:37 (thirteen years ago) link

more of a cliff than an inclination

that's the million dollar seven cent question

normal_fantasy-unicorns (contenderizer), Sunday, 30 January 2011 22:39 (thirteen years ago) link

I figured it would be a good catch all to include Pitchfork, Sgum, Paste, and the review sections of a lot of the print mags which focus on indie bands instead of like Kings Of Leon and Amy Winehouse. I don't know what word I should have used. I figured it would be self-explanatory, but I was so, so, so, so wrong

what # is this on the list of ways that whiney is like a bad rash???

Lamp, Sunday, 30 January 2011 22:40 (thirteen years ago) link

I don't know what word I should have used.

"critics"

normal_fantasy-unicorns (contenderizer), Sunday, 30 January 2011 22:41 (thirteen years ago) link

i honestly didn't think using a seemingly self-explanatory shorthand for "publications on the web and in print that focus primarily on indie (the genre) music" would be all that inflammatory. But it's apparantly like Pauly D from Jersey Shore walking into the middle of Daddy's at happy hour and yelling "HIPSTERS!"

never under estimate the dumb shit people can get butthurt about on this site

art crüt (Whiney G. Weingarten), Sunday, 30 January 2011 22:42 (thirteen years ago) link

or if you were sincere about just wanting recommendations:

"whiney"

normal_fantasy-unicorns (contenderizer), Sunday, 30 January 2011 22:42 (thirteen years ago) link

xp - wait, so you are talking about critics and not dudes?

sarahel, Sunday, 30 January 2011 22:43 (thirteen years ago) link

yes, sorry i didn;t make that clear

this thread isn't really anything anyone should get worked up or "butthurt" about though

well Dominique and I disagree about the best Magma record so:

Magma - Udu Wudu

in isolation it wouldn't be. but if you're saying you didn't intentionally put a "lol @ indie herbs catchin up late" spin on things, then that's BS. it's not the suggestion that indie critics are indie critics that's bugging me.

normal_fantasy-unicorns (contenderizer), Sunday, 30 January 2011 22:48 (thirteen years ago) link

that's recycled excelsiors, don't bother~

omar little, Sunday, 30 January 2011 22:49 (thirteen years ago) link

like, I get Whiney's good intentions to proselytise music he sees as underregarded; he's chosen inflammatory terms to do so and offhandedly dismissed the consensus of music-fans as fervent as he, but I don't think he's dismissing them individually

so I'm cool with the thread's vague premise (early albums that got 'lost' by critical consensus) if not some of its rhetoric. also I don't think it should be limited to 'non-indie' because that's when fights start.

Whiney, u a bro, don't get mad itt :(

contenderizer is broadly otm but is picking an otm fight against someone who isn't really its opponent

i love the smell of clusterfuck in the morning. the smell, you know, that ilx smell. smells like ... weingarten.

louis OTM, but talking crazy about clouds taste metallic. the flaming lips record that gets missed is in a priest driven ambulance, and it's almost as indie as me.

if sarahel goes dark for a few minutes it's cuz she's choosing between vibrators
