If I hear about them and listen to them, great. What I'm saying is that sometimes it's overwhelming when there are so many new bands that you can't listen to them all (my main problem being that I can't afford to buy all the albums I would like) and that it shouldn't feel that you have to know about such and such band in order to be "in the know" as long as you love what you already know. Isn't that cool enough??? I dunno...just some thoughts.
Garcin:
Especially in NYC. Bloggers in this city can literally make an obscure solo artist the "next big thing" within about 48 hours of their first performance in a venue admitting about 50 people. Trying to keep up is literally impossible, and would be even if you didn't care about anything else.
That being said, the thrill of coming across a new band, both in the sense that they just started to make music, and in the sense that they are doing something interesting that you've never heard before, is undeniable. It gives venue-hopping a sense of adventure.

--- Quote from: Moiche ---You know, it's funny. Saying you dislike a song or an artist in this forum is pointless. It's not like you're going to convince someone to start disliking music they think they like.
But saying that you like a song or an artist has a point since you could be introducing someone to something new.

Bah! That's exactly why I hate reading snotty music reviews! And why I have my nerdy girly theory about how all music reviews should only be about albums the reviewer LIKES, because I think it's just awful to turn someone off of a band that they might have loved just because a pretentious critic said so.
And quite frankly, since I'm new here let's just be honest from the get-go, I've got no problem with shitty music. If it's fun to my ears, I'll listen to it. I won't PURCHASE it, but I'll listen to it. I have no shame in blasting some Don't Stop Believin' in my car with the windows down.
And PS, Beirut and Gogol Bordello are both incredible amd this thread has made gypsycore my vocab word of the day.

I cant believe you failed to mentioned ...And Oceans
--- Quote from: Skibas_clavicle --- the forum was filled with intelligent, somewhat indie 20-somethings.

Skib, I'm 17, and I'm sure most of the forum memmbers are around my age. And probably not indie at all.
But anyway, this is an awsome, insightful forum. Probably the best I'll ever write on.
Wait, what were we talking about again?
I think I might be too drunk to post right now.
