ILM is kinda sucking these days (boring and meta ignore not safe for work)

these rap chaps ought to exercise some bally self-control, is what our dear friend is flailing at

same as the noise scene. people make a tape a week. rap and noise. its easy to consume a lot of it though. even when its not memorable. its like weird candy you like. metal fans too. an infinite appetite. courting a porn-y audience isn't hard. just keep it coming.

it just struck me as strange usage tbh- imo if you think there is a notable album/mixtape coming out every 6 hours you need to raise yr ceiling of notability

this is v much an aside tho, it's not notable tbh

This has the feel of the very initial exchanges of a terrible, magnificent war

ha not at all, fwiw i recognise the ability to catalogue reams and reams of new content as a very ilm trait/talent. maybe ilf does similar but i couldn't really think of an equivalent off my head

hah it occurs to me that i have no idea what kind of music darragh likes

i guess 'notable' has an air of 'exceptional' to it but all i meant was, like, famous. someone pretty famous, like has has hit singles and been on TV and stuff, drops a new mixtape like at least 4 times every day. that wasn't true 10 years ago.

has has = has had

i could suggest raising yr bar for 'famous', but i mean i'm not out to stop anyone's fun or anything

it's not like the rolling noise or anything else threads are predominantly about people who are 'famous' by any measure! i just mean, like, well known to fans of the genre!

please don't waste any effort trying to convince me, i dont even know what 'noise' is tbfh

guess

This thread needs more salsa dancing.

it certainly could use maracas

it could use some deleting

^ the kind of vicious zings killing ilm

^posts that float thru your head

gifs that float through mine yet, tboh

that's a one notable mixtape every 6 hours average

^

Lol slocki

What's the deal with all of the 'overrated bands' threads, and related spoofs!?

no idea and not read them but I'd imagine boredom on a sunday?

Just curious--and this is coming from one of the all-time great thread assassins* Anyway, I'm sure I'm this for others, but does anyone else have particular posters that you reflexively recoil from? (NO NAMES PLEASE) like they drive you crazy? I think I'm projecting my own shit on them, but god, this person posts everywhere and makes me crawl up the wall....

*I would say people comment on maybe 1 in 20 of my posts, although sometimes a thread of mine will do sort of well.

good post

mysterious

today has been a day of ilm exultation imo

will ILM have a great weekend

and a drug

there are definitely cliques on ilx, and certain users only read certain users

i'm sure i'm no different than the rest, and there are many posters i don't bother reading (recoil from/hate/drive me crazy are all too harsh and don't apply to me)

kale bush tits

personally I recoil from my own posts

I figure I don't get read much.

Even when ILX isn't entertaining I still lurk, mostly due to not knowing where else to go on the internet. I don't use social media really.

personally I recoil from my own posts
