Overrated artists/ songs thread
I'll go first. My main beef with pic related is that almost anyone who identifies as a Queen fan above all else generally has no strong opinion on music and likewise no personal taste. Pretty much the same with the Beatles, too. Kiddos generally suck their cocks because
A. Mommy and Daddy like them
B. Bomemeian Rhapsody
C. Freddie was bi "muh social justice"
D. Le wrong generation
Speaking of Bohemian, I personally believe it's tied with Journey's "Don't Stop Believing" for most...

Bohemian Rhapsody is bloody ace to sing with your friends when you're drunk at 2am, though.

i think they're overrated, but not for the stupid generic reason you give, i hate them because i felt they had so much potential, but waste it.

So, I brought my wife (ex) to lunch the other day when I was visiting my old haunt of Brooklyn. She is a little strange. Always biting the nails. You know that type. Well anyway, we sat down at this coffee shop because our favorite restaurant was all booked for lunch. I told her it was either the coffee shop or lunch at my mom's house in New Jersey. She picked the former. We sat there in silence eating our muffins, coffee cake, and drinking lame herbal tea with a waitress who had fluorescent red hair and some nose ring. She was working on her bachelors degree at some random liberal arts school nobody has ever heard of. Those places. She'll get a degree and still be working at the coffee shop, and telling everyone else her music tastes are better than everyone elses. You know those types. Anyway, I asked the waitress what music she liked.
A giant smile like as if she was a 12 year old again when that good looking boy gives her a wink.
"Well everything."
I was not impressed.
"Everything really? Is that possible?"
"It can be, believe it or not, it's called the internet" She said in total art school arrogance.
"Oh really, so having instant access to music now constitutes having universal tastes?"
"Yes it does, apparently you missed the curb on that."
"Hold it! What artists do you like? Give me a top 5." I pounded the table, disturbing my ex- from her valium induced mellowness.
"Ummm....Fleet Foxes, Gogol Bordel, Animal Collective, LCD Soundsystem, Rise Against, and umm Flaming Lips....all unique and different"

I was floored by the utter garbage she spewed. She thought she was different. She thought she was unique with her Arts education, expensive designer hipster clothes, and all that fucking hair dye. I mean, she was a walking product of the corporations and she was simply oblivious to this. The MNCs had gotten her. They had given her a teenage lobotomy with a couple of credit cards. She was one of those trendy zombies walking all the streets of western cities. IT MADE ME SICK.
Almost immediately, my hand flung...

The shop crowd was silenced by the sheer power of this album. The hipster girl stood there and looked embarrassed. She said to me, "I might be fired for this."
I just got up and took the hand of the hipster. She pulled away with a look of disgust, "No, don't touch me"
I started to gyrate in the shop and my ex wife got up and left annoyed. Swagging my hips like Elvis back and forth. Kicking my feet up to the wild solos. Soon I lost control. My body to the end of "Hat and Beard" was swinging into the tables and patrons started to flee. The hipster girl was yelling something at me and then she went into a back room. It hit me that she would be disconnecting the music and so I chased her into the back. Her finger was about to press "Stop" and I tackled her to the ground. Some other dufus hipster guy - who wore probably the same plaid shirt that I wore in the 80's, and had a beard that Rutherford B. Hayes would be jealous of - jumped on top saying,
"Get off of her you asshole!"
Then I heard a voice---
"Call the police."
Before I knew it all these hipsters were pulling me away from the hipster girl. As I was pulled away, some hand pressed "eject", and I screamed "NOOOO! You fucking bastards! That's Eric Dolphy. This is real music."
The other female hipster who had dyed black hair , while wearing 70's gym shorts, a smiths t-shirt, and black converse said, with her finger holding the CD in the donut hole, "It's not. It's garbage"
I knocked her out with one punch.
There is a reason why Sad/Depressive music is of higher "quality" and just Good in general. They're trying to increase the suicide Rate in order to keep the world from dooming itself due to overpopulation. Now some of you might say something like:
>"So why does the media push trash and pop shit and not Le sad and Depressive music?!"
Well i am glad you asked beause there's also a reason for that as well.
Let me ask you, is it of greater use, for "them", to have a population that consists of smart...

I can see where you're coming from
Sounds a bit far fetched, though
>There is a reason why Sad/Depressive music is of higher "quality" and just Good in general.
Yes, the reason is that you're depressed and so depressive music resonates more strongly with your personal emotions
You fucking dolt

So it is. Thanks for the heads up.
Forget Kanye West though, we're giving Art Angels its first spin.
Is it true /mu/?
>>60278499
I'm not going to read that.
Pop music is made with the sole intention of appealing to as many people as possible, so statistically speaking playing it in clubs is going to make more people happy.
Although if you are a club that has a "scene" ie a rock club like the one this is about, then you have every duty to play rock music as opposed to pop music, because that's why people are there.
And as far as the motley crue thing goes, they were pop stars as well, and were still terrible role models.

>caring what this bigot thinks
what music could be described as "kafkaesque?"
fast and bulbous
I did an essay on Die Verwandlung in my first year of uni.
So like it looks at a character who is over pressured from his work and then ostracised by his family for his inabity to work. Also something about Kafka being Jewish in Prague
And the book has a surreal story but tells it in a jarringly inappropriate way like, when Gregor wakes up the weird thing is that he's late for work, not that he's been transformed. And Kafka paints unwhole pictures by describing something in minute detail but never outlining the whole
Either 'Live at the Witch Trials'...
