of course in 2017 the confluence of novelty pop music, preteen girls and Australians named Harris carries far more unsavoury connotations

I fell I'm an extreme example of that mindset, I lack any critical skills not just for music but for anything else really, and rarely have anything more interesting to say than "I like/don't like this".
― chihuahuau
honestly in some ways i genuinely regret developing a critical vocabulary. i grew up with the typical rockist antipathy for critical discourse (listened to a lot of frank zappa, which didn't help). but i wound up here anyway because to hell with the devil, the critics are the ones who really have all the best tunes. and after years of this now i can write about music like a second-rate hack. it wasn't a skill i was trying to develop.
but in other ways i don't regret it, because when i look at the future and what it holds it increasingly seems like it's either genocide or creative work. i hope to god people can be convinced the latter is a better alternative. it's a hard sell.

Me too.
When people are talking about the regular in depth critical analysis of this board it doesn't really sound like the ILX I know but I don't really go on the Rolling music threads. I think those posters are in the minority and that's fine. I know I can't go as far as them.

I recant. What I meant was: I haven't spent two decades filtering my own critical vocabulary through a warren of obscurant friends. There seems to actually be really simple steps for inclusion here: loudly, ignorantly proclaim your presence; mocked; try again; mocked; injoke +/- vocabulary subsumption.
It's pretty OK as a hazing process, but I feel like the subtext is really giving a fuck about Jute Gyte.
― lion in winter, Monday, 13 February 2017 06:17 (seven years ago) link
I think the subtext could stand to give more of one tbf
mockery can be quite character-forming, especially for bullish prigs, I would recommend it in doses varying by levels of childhood privilege

I got a 242, helped by some lucky guessing.
248. When stuck, picking the group you've heard of usually seems to work.
― Choco Blavatsky (seandalai), Saturday, 25 February 2017 03:02 (seven years ago) link
249. Yeah, quite a lot of these were three records I didn't know + Blondie.

230. A lot of this stuff is not remotely what I care about.
― _Rudipherous_, Saturday, 25 February 2017 03:28 (seven years ago) link
235--numerous, numerous guesses. As tribute to one of my new favourite movies, I made sure to get "Heroes" wrong.

― Flamenco Drop (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 25 February 2017 03:34 (seven years ago) link
247 with a LOT of guessing, helped by things like "There's rapping and the only rap group there is The Roots, so..."
― albvivertine, Saturday, 25 February 2017 03:34 (seven years ago) link
I went through three guesses before picking Arcade Fire on one question. Apparently what I've heard by them didn't make an impression beyond inspiring me to not listen to any more.
― _Rudipherous_, Saturday, 25 February 2017 03:36 (seven years ago) link
240sigh can't believe i whiffed on lol vampire weekendwould have been a way better quiz if they removed the artist names from the coversalso if they didn't use ugly greatest hits artalso if they had a time bonusThere was a fair amount of stuff that I had never heard but I could guess based on the cover / offhanded remarks on ILM. like level 10 was just WGW punchlines

of all the indie stuff from the past 20 years, I had an amazing success rate guessing based on the aesthetics of the album cover.
