Actually looking at that Google result, it seems that just about everyone's debut album was a classic. Surely some mistake?

for fucks sake people he clearly posted that on the wrong thread, it's not especially interesting

Person, really. It's only me, but way to keep a lid on it.

Also what is the right thread?

I think he said "people" because it's been mentioned on several other threads already.

However, I would like to know this, too:

Also what is the right thread?

jaymc, Saturday, 9 February 2008 00:31 (sixteen years ago) link

sorry, over the top reaction on my part

there was some thread (which i probably won't be able to find now darnit) where song titles were reworded to tone them down or remove slang..

electricsound, Saturday, 9 February 2008 03:12 (sixteen years ago) link

here we go

Here, a thread featuring translations of song titles from their commonly known designation and into ACADEMESE, and then involving guess-work as to the original nomenclature in order to make a competi

i note he did it on that thread as well, so maybe its inclusion on this thread is an attempt at lolz on geir's part????

and one of the results is truly bizarre.

Follow the link, and it carries on in equally strange ways. Either the guy is deadly serious, or seriously taking the piss. I'm not sure which way to go on that one.

Nobody seems to realize that the problem isn't the language, it's the fact that music reviews universally suck.

libcrypt, Saturday, 9 February 2008 18:35 (sixteen years ago) link

^^^ this. i was trying to think of why i thought this thread-concept nbit the big one, but there it is. most (positive) music reviews are a gallimaufry of boosterism, reaching, and outright humbug.

That one guy that hit it and quit it, Saturday, 9 February 2008 18:39 (sixteen years ago) link

At best, a review should be a by-product of an otherwise-directed bit of writing that entertains, informs, or what have you on merits other than its value as a musical consumer guide.

On this 'tip' ("tip"!):
"Chameleon" (Tanya made this point once but she nicked it off me or Pete) - David Bowie a rock chameleon i.e. ever-changing, unpredictable BUT chameleons blend into the background, so it's more like Soup Dragons-y bandwagon jumping AND the only colours they can do are various shades of dull green yellow and brown so 'unpredictable' is a bit off too

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Why is this funny? Coz ANY FULE KNO (well, they do if they watch QI) that chameleons don't blend into the background at all, but change colour in accordance with their mood, which is presumably what Bowie was doing, tho presumably he was not that moody (a commendable thing, no?) coz he left it for an album, possibly two, and at the very least a song, before doing it.

A lurid pink chameleon would be as desirable as, say, Tin Machine?

stop being like OMGWTF when bands have 10-minute-long songs. doing this is lame even when it's indie rock bands (television and can had 10-minute songs) but it's even worse when critics act astounded that mastodon have 10-minute songs. duh they're a prog-influenced metal band.
