La Creme:
As long as it teaches 'em a lesson.

Even if that lesson is "Learn to respect your music more or I will beat you tenfold times harder than I did the last time until you get it pigfuck!".

--- Quote from: Patatat ---I am talking about them being complete and utter fucking dicks. It annoys me, and apparently thats not okay by your standards. I am sorry that I dislike when fucking morons talk about bands they don't know like they do. Ignorance on any subject annoys me, mostly on music. However, apparently in your own ignorance you have learned to cope with it.

I don't want to hear idiot opinions on music, so I don't talk to idiots about music*.  Holy shit goddamn, what a fucking revolutionary idea.

I'm more concerned about the ignorance that led us to preemptively invade a sovereign nation, or the ignorance that leads to various forms of discrimination, or the ignorance that allows police to assault law abiding citizens without repercussions or allowing said citizen to even defend themself.  Compared to that shit, whether or not a shitty little hipster wannabe is pretending to be, like, oh man, Arcade Fire's very biggest fan just doesn't fucking bother me.

Anyways, really, anyone who likes Arcade Fire who hasn't lived in Montreal in the last 10 years is a fucking trend-whore anyways.  Discuss.

*Except, apparently, here.

Patatat:
Oh, you bleeding hearts always bring a smile to my face. When you bitch about something, especialy when you bitch about something falsely. However, discussing your thoughts on politics and how I spit on them are not for this thread.

Hatebunny:
Since I'm not much of a fan of indie music at all-- (While others seem to orgasm from poorly recorded music, I'm just annoyed by it.) Though, some of it is good...

that's not my point...

er, I hate HATE it when I like something, and it becomes special to me, and then it gets popular, and it becomes someone's disposable razor. They use it, they enjoy it and its effects for a week, and soon afterward, it gets thrown out.

for example:
I like moby. I've liked moby for a long time. I heard a track from 'Play' and I was like DAYUMN. I went out and bought all of his albums, and then almost 6 months later, Play hits it HUGE, and everybody loves it. the ONE month later, Moby's apparently a sellout (probably...the man's pretty self-important) and overrated (I beg to differ.)

Anyway, the problem is that I like to think that If something connects to me emotionally, it's got to be pretty good and or at least a little mature. To see a bunch of people who could not possibly experience the music on the same level (as shown by their immediate disposal thereof), listening and loving an album that I love, and only appreciating THAT album when the entire discography's fantastic...THAT pisses me off. It feels like they're stealing it from me...My enjoyment of the album.

the moral of this story: stupid people should not listen to good music, because they ruin it for people who really appreciate it.

the moral you'll take away from this, since most of you are indie-kids: I like moby, Moby sucks, let's troll.

Inlander:
You know what?  I like it when a songwriter or band I love suddenly becomes popular - because it means that their music is reaching more people, which is going to encourage and probably enable them to create more music.  If somebody hasn't heard of music that I like, I burn them a copy or encourage them to go out and buy it.  The more the merrier.
