Fun Stuff > BAND
Blasphemy! Heresy! No, seriously, this is just f'ing stupid.
Kai:
I'm trying to figure out what all the fuss is about; It's PITCHFORK. They exist solely TO be pretentious and wankers. Come on.
Spartan Pho3nix:
The person who reviewed it has no credibility. They've had to retract some of his articles in the past, and the ones he writes are terrible.
While I did smile when he said Sufjan Stevens sucks (he does), the article is completly off base.
penpen17:
psh, the Go! Team is way better at ridiculously happy retro rock than these Pipettes girls
also, i've never particularly like pitchfork
lofin:
Haven't you ever heard a song that had a good hook but terrible lyrics?
Cuz I think that's what he's talking about. Sinatra didn't write all of his own songs, but he was still great. The author isn't saying that all musicians should stop writing their own lyrics/music, just the ones that suck at it should get some help. Hey, who knows, maybe if we all like better quality lyrics/songs better stuff might start being produced.
Praeserpium Machinarum:
There is a minor problem there I think, the planet of Earth as a whole doesn't agree on what is quality music. That is why there is an indie scene to begin, because people do not agree. Thus indie is neither worse or better than mainstream like 50 Cent. It all comes down to opinion I am afraid.
Likewise with this article, it's his opinion, it's not sacred but it's not something you can do anything about either.
For the future I think we should call Pitchfork The Website That Shall Not Be Named! Then we might avoid all these bashing threads, entertaining as they are...
