[QUOTE=Reaver1991;16589058]This thread is basically why this music forum sucks.[/QUOTE]I know, right? I mean there are some good threads but like 3/4 of the forum is 12-14 year olds whining about how they hate all modern music except Wolfmother.
I don't understand people who are stuck in a certain age of music. If you're too lazy to find the kind of music you like so you blame it on stupid shit like society, I have no sympathy.
It's just an impossible argument because its based off opinion. A forum isn't going to change anyone's opinion.
Today's music is awful. It's all this "somethingcore" shit that only tools care about.
No, today's music doesn't suck. Yesterday's music didn't suck. Tomorrow's music won't suck. You're just lazy.
Can we have an official rule prohibiting "MUSIC AIN'T WHAT IT USED TO BE DAGNABBIT" posts?
[QUOTE=Agoat;16589352]Today's music is awful. It's all this "somethingcore" shit that only tools care about.[/QUOTE] sorry people like to categorize their music. Music is evolving.
[QUOTE=Agoat;16589352]Today's music is awful. It's all this "somethingcore" shit that only tools care about.[/QUOTE] Because the only music today is *core music.
Argh. You guys are so.. :downs:
[QUOTE=Doriol;16589368]No, today's music doesn't suck. Yesterday's music didn't suck. Tomorrow's music won't suck. You're just lazy.[/QUOTE] Lazy to lower the bar?
[QUOTE=j00g0t0wnd;16589791]Lazy to lower the bar?[/QUOTE] There are a fucking million artists out there that have plenty of talent its people who don't put the time to find them..
It seems like every year pop music gets worse. By the time i'm 64, pop music in the U.S. will be grunts and whisles and/or the sounds chimps make when they masturbate.
That wouldn't be pop music. You're an idiot.
[QUOTE=Doriol;16589986]That wouldn't be pop music. You're an idiot.[/QUOTE] Funny, if you gave people from decades ago today's shit, they would never call it pop.
[QUOTE=j00g0t0wnd;16590186]Funny, if you gave people from decades ago today's shit, they would never call it pop.[/QUOTE] How about this. Lets just listen to the same music. Never to progress into any other genres. All music stays the same.
[QUOTE=j00g0t0wnd;16590186]Funny, if you gave people from decades ago today's shit, they would never call it pop.[/QUOTE] Grunting and the sounds of masturbation can't be pop, no exceptions. :colbert:
[QUOTE=j00g0t0wnd;16588961]Because you're the king of everything that exists. You're probably one of the most pathetic users on the forums. I'd lick shit from the sewers before I take orders from you.[/QUOTE] ahhahaahha oh that's rich someone has a superiority complex.

[QUOTE=Doriol;16580866]You're listening to the wrong rap.[/QUOTE] Not really. [editline]01:59AM[/editline] [QUOTE=Doriol;16589141]I don't understand people who are stuck in a certain age of music. If you're too lazy to find the kind of music you like so you blame it on stupid shit like society, I have no sympathy.[/QUOTE] Actually generally speaking I like 70s rock a lot more than current stuff, but I'm not going to cry about it because it's stupid to expect music to stay the same for 40 years lol
people who complain about pop music being shitty haven't realized that it's produced to make money, not be good music.
People who say that don't know what pop is. [quote]Not really.[/quote] I was exaggerating a bit, but my point was that not all rap is simple.
[QUOTE=absinthe;16591352]people who complain about pop music being shitty haven't realized that it's produced to make money, not be good music.[/QUOTE] Besides if it's music that's meant to make money, and it makes money, then it is good music [editline]02:44AM[/editline] [QUOTE=Doriol;16592154]I was exaggerating a bit, but my point was that not all rap is simple.[/QUOTE] My point was that rap that is simple (and music that is simple in general) isn't inherently bad and you don't have to pander to cretins who think so by saying "oh well that's the BAD rap, you can hate that"
[QUOTE=TH89;16592182]Besides if it's music that's meant to make money, and it makes money, then it is good music[/QUOTE] it's a good product, not good music.
[quote]My point was that rap that is simple (and music that is simple in general) isn't inherently bad and you don't have to pander to cretins who think so by saying "oh well that's the BAD rap, you can hate that"[/quote] I don't think simple music is bad. It was a bad choice of words.
[QUOTE=absinthe;16592208]it's a good product, not good music.[/QUOTE] That implies there's a single unifying purpose for all music. There isn't. If someone tries to write a moving song, and it moves people, it's a good song. If someone tries to write a song with a hella kvlt guitar solo and everyone thinks it's a hella kvlt guitar solo, it's a good song.

[QUOTE=Daftright;16593520]Then not only is it a good product, but good music at the same time.[/QUOTE] So, what's the unifying factor by which "good music" is judged?
[QUOTE=TH89;16594126]And what makes good music?[/QUOTE] Popular opinion?
