What exactly makes an album /mu/ core
>>60400528
How much its spammed.
BNM helps.
being spammed and memed to death
Pitchfork ultimately decide.
it's boringness
It's easy to get into, has hipster appeal and gets a good score on p4k
Can I get a legitimate answer please
It has to make girls look disgusted and confused if you try and make them listen to it and most people should be unaware it exists.

You say easy to get into, but as a guy who is new to /mu/, most of this stuff is really fucking weird and not likable. It's not like I am ignorant of music either, it's just usually really weird hipster shit.

It was always this

>>60400547
Cant be popular or universally liked, has to be somewhat experimental, cant be obvious in its influences, cant be even remotely "accessible"
>>60400528
Albums that have been loved by a certain percentage of the board as well as being talked about to death across the board for a significant amount of time.

Also, In the Aeroplane Over the Sea is mediocre and grossly overrated. His guitar is simplistic and his singing is pretty shitty.
potato head music like this

Two of the albums that are /mu/core were literally chart toppers and have gone platinum.

Spam and Pitchfork, definitely, people are like rats in the laboratory, easy to manipulate.
>>60400889
Honestly, why should I respect the people at Pitchfork's opinion on what music is good or bad?
>>60400910
You shouldnt
it has to be so shitty that it ferments and turns into jenkem
>>60400930
Why does /mu/?
Slightly obscure to most people who aren't into the genre. Slightly edgy but not to the point at which it can easily be mocked. Needs to have at least one song that sounds harsh and unapproachable.
Bonus points for unpredictable structure or melody resolution.

It's a mix between these two. There are no official rules about it.
