Objectivity in Music

zekterellium:
long words bother me sometimes, but so does succinctness too, so i'm stuck in the middle. it's not so great.

Certainly not.  One should always apply philosophical considerations to musical taste.  For example, one should be Nietzschean in how one approaches musical appreciation.  You should seek music which exemplifies the virtue you have sought for yourself.  Music should free you from the shackles of society's oppressive subjective taste and should invigorate you for your search for the ubermensch.

zekterellium:
guys, in all yr intellectual bickering, yr forgetting what music is really about - making pretty girls dance with you. you should be a nihilist when it comes to music and just enjoy everything. it's what i do.

sp2:
Aristotle would argue that such pleasures are base and do not better yourself.  Thus, one's morality should work to further thiings which bring more lasting pleasure to yourself and others, such as education, increasing one's honor, and listening to intricate, esoteric, and ultimately more fulfilling music such as The Mars Volta.

zekterellium:
i really don't like mars volta at all. they're long winded and boring.
