rolling enlightening music discussion thread

this has to be a put-on, right?

i wonder how much vampire weekend owes in student loans. columbia has to be pretty expensive. kudos to them for having the grit to record music while working jobs to pay school off

I hate all that backpacker, old-school "jiggy hip hop sucks, it was better in the olden days" shit.

You like that attitude? Jurassic 5 loving studes in Rawkus hoodies who would look at you like you were nuts for suggesting that something as "mainstream" as Reasonable Doubt is a good album?

That's more of a CHALLENGING OPINION than an enlightened music discussion.

terence got fucked over by precious and stupid rock journos for:
a) being too much of a pretty boy
b) saying that his first album was better than sgt peppers. apparently its ok for the gallaghers to talk shit about the beatles but not terence
c) supposedly being too arrogant. like thats a bad thing.

that said, he made some truly brilliant songs, some great albums (pretentiousness - whatever), and possessed one of the greatest voices of the past 20 years.

wtf are you even talking about?

From you and Lethbridge-Stewart, I'll take those as compliments.

Here, see if you can get this one, it's much better than "fuck you": There's been a great feast of languages but you've stolen only the scraps.

Public Enemy brought a new energy and political awareness to hip-hop which brought many who would not have come within spitting distance of the genre into the fold. There is no way on earth that Suede can be said to have done the same for indie. It was v telling that when East 17 were asked to name their fave Suede song in NME's Material World column they replied "don't know any". Anderson & co were far more derivative than their press would suggest, even tho Brett made no secret of the fact that he hero-worshipped Bowie and Morrissey.

More I think about that one, the more certain I am it's a joke.

"ditch that" has a 4/4 beat no?

that aint bad

roxy is going against the stream all over ilx 2nite

ya dude totes

defendin j0hn d. from boring zings (rightfully so!) and pithily justifyin zinged ilm post

i dont even know, im completely zoned out

wtf is zingable about that ilm post

other than confusing 4/4 and 4 on the floor

theres plenty of embarrassing ilm shit out there but like 60% of this thread was just boring ilm filler. i.e. me describing my ballot in one sentence.

not really. bored. this thread is sub excelsior :(

yeah this thread is on some shit i agree

i think like 86% of my ilm posts are in here

lol deej chillax brah

other than confusing 4/4 and 4 on the floor

that's why I posted it

I guess you need the context to get the larger point he was trying to make, which iirc was something like "this song is trancey... I mean, it's in 4/4, after all"

ohhhhhh

contextual burn

But am I the only person who thinks it's amazing that Norman Cook was in The Housemartins (and Beats International; and The Mighty Dub Katz; and...) before he was Fatboy Slim? Even when "The Rockafeller Skank" hit, no one seemed to think it was a big deal.
