Do you have ''unique'' taste?
wait what, fantano, clt, and p4k sure don't.
>>60578385
sort of.
Lately I've started to wonder if I have taste at all. Everything sounds like music to me, and most things I listen to I enjoy.
i listen to many various genres, u cant pinpoint me imo
but at the same time im very selective in a particular genre when its about for example the genuinity of an artist or a band
so im able to like almost everything but at the same time i dont want to cus of the trust i have in my own intuition if that makes any sense
>>60580057
I know what you mean
>>60580279
Holy kek Aaron
Not one album on this whole picture is even in my top 50
Shit taste all of them
>>60578385
Why can't any of these fuckers into good psychedelic? Hampus at the very least has Boredoms but where the fuck is all the good 60's-70's shit?
>>60580326

>>60580496
Because while good, I've heard them many times. La Novia is (used to be?) one of my favourite albums.
>>60578385
No, I have average taste yet I'm happier than any of you niggas here will ever be.
>>60580302
Where is bear?
>>60578385
I'm pretty sure those aren't jtg's favorite albums
unique yes i know what that means nobody in my school listens to stuff like (well just to name a few) death grips and aphex twin and burial so i guess i am unique
>>60578385
Nah and I'm okay with that
>>60581931
Somebody made one and fixed his but I didn't save it
I'm pretty sure I'm the only guy who regularly comes to /mu/ who likes bluegrass and folk metal exclusively, so yeah, I'm pretty sure I do
>>60578385
i can identify somewhat with scaruffi and antiwarhol
>>60581947
shut up you fucking faggot
>>60578385

Since I don't like any of those albums aside from Sibylle Baier I can assume so.
>>60583030
shut up you fucking faggot

What's the bottom right album on Fantano's? It looks really familiar.
Also I have to go with Leo even though I have no clue who he is because The Modern Lovers are GOAT.
>>60583705
http://youtu.be/ZeCykApQ8dI
i love the autotune and the girl's adlibs during the chorus, its a post-irony masterpiece imo, the other songs on that ep are also good
theyre garbage in general tho, thats their only listenable release
>>60582180
Here is the fixed one
idk who scaruffi is, but based on this image, he has the most objectively patrician taste
yes
>>60578385
Can someone please tell me the hampus albums that arent black foliage, flying lotus, or boredoms
>>60584510
How can you be on /mu/ and not know who Scaruffi is?
>>60580318
>London Calling isn't in his top 50
Kill yourself
>>60583862
you're a post-irony masterpiece
I don't know, I don't care. Next question
>>60582224
Rec me some entry-level bluegrass.
>>60585944
sweet jesus
>>60582224
I don't listen to any of this type of music, but I like your taste and you're cool
>>60585422
I'm a newfag
>>60585872
It's not that great to deserve a top 50, really.
In my opinion:
Is my musical taste unique for /mu/ standards? No.
Is my musical taste unique in general? No.
Is it unique compared to what people I know in person listen to? Yes.
I do not think of myself as a special snowflake.
What is your definition of unique musical taste?
>>60586205
Obviously, if your musical taste is unique, then there's no one else in the world who has the exact same likes and dislikes as you.
>>60586094

hey thanks i appreciate that
>>60586225
Well if you put it that way then yes I suppose my musical taste is unique.
>>60578385
I don't get why MPP is under the pitchfork category. They gave it a 9.6 and they've gave tons of other albums 10s so why did that make the cut?...
>>60586342
Thanks friend.
>>60586593
lemme know what you think if this thread lives long enough
also here's a wallpaper based off a cool cover from the Thunderbolts comic
>>60586225
>>60586352
Unique is relative, not absolute.
>>60586648
strictly speaking "unique" actually is absolute
however in the context of this thread I think it's important to understand that "unique" probably means something closer to "unusual" or "outlying", which are relative measures
>>60586620
I liked the Flatt & Scruggs song. I've heard Wagon Wheel before (I think everyone has).
>>60586714
Glad you liked it.
And yeah, Old Crow (or at least that song) is pretty popular. Their more recent albums are a lot more traditional in many ways - my favorite album is Carry Me Back, and the eponymous track of that one is a straight up civil war fiddle tune, I love it.

I'll add them to my to-listen list.
>>60578385
What's the top right album in CLT's chart?
>>60580002
Hello, are you me?
>>60586676
No. Unique is always relative. Or can you post an example that isn't?
Unique still means in the context of this thread what it actually means, and it's relative.
>>60586862
Flaming Lips
>>60587122
>Unique is always relative
any relative uses of the word "unique" are proscribed because "unique" specifically means "Being the only one of its kind"
Examples:
In the set of all integers, each item is unique because there is only one of it
In the set {1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 3}, 3 is unique because there is only one of it, but 1 is not because there are multiples of it
In the set {1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 3, 3}, 3 is an outlier because there are few of it, but it is not unique because there is more than one item identical to it
any reputable dictionary will tell you that "unique" is not comparable; that is, the notions "more unique" and "most unique" are incorrect
>>60587253
In the second set 3 is indeed more unique than 1. Relative. Not absolute.
But okay, according to that definition you would be right.

>>60578385
Nah. I don't view it view it that way at least. Well maybe I'd like to think so. Wouldn't we all? But realistically, no, not at all. It's probably not all that important though. It's just social capital at that point. I don't know. I like what I find appealing. And if I can share that with others, people I care about, that's cool. Otherwise, it's all for my own benefit. And that's mostly what it's about. So. Yeah.
>>60587253
If 3 is unique in one set, but not another, surely that means the uniqueness of an item is relative.
>>60587649
What this guy said, only with even more sentence fragments.
unique = an actual person with varying favorites that they like for their own reasons
not unique = /mu/core bandwagonist faggot who only claims they like an album because it makes them fit in with other bandwagoneers. in the rare case that someone forces themselves to listen to an album enough times to like it they are still not unique because the very reason they like that album is to fit in with the other faggots.
>>60587720
Well said! Fuck those shitlords!
>>60587720
calm down
>>60587720
/mu/ in a nutshell
MUH SCARUFFI
MUH P4
MUH FANTANO
If you like anything that these people like for no reason other than the fact that they like them then you are literally NOT UNIQUE and are just as bad as the top 40 listeners.
>>60587720
A lot of people here like /mu/core not because of bandwagon hopping, but because it's spammed here and it gets the most exposure
Also there's nothing wrong with forcing youself to listen to an album you didn't like initially. After some repeat listens you might gain a new perspective
>>60587720
>omg the /mu/drone plebs amarite?
You realise that just because an album is popular on here, doesn't mean that everyone likes it? Similarly, just because people like a popular album, that doesn't mean they ONLY like popular albums.
>>60587878
>>60587857
>>60587836
>>60587806
>>60587769
post your top 6 and i guarantee you it mirrors one of /mu/s favored reviewer's top 6.
>>60587857
thats not a new perspective, thats someone else's perspective. if an album is not for you upon first listen then to defy that is to defy your very self-image. Are you "you" or are you some reviewer or neckbeard on a music board telling you that you should like it?
>>60587985
I don't know about you, but a lot of albums grow on me on repeat listens. And I didn't mean that you'll start liking an album because it's popular here, I mean that you gave it a second chance because of said popularity.Interesting observation about self-image though.
>>60588206
if they grow on you that means you WANT to like them, not that you like them. and why would someone want to be able to say "I like this album" other than to superficially fit in or look patrician?
>>60588272
not who you were talking to, but I know in my case I started out not liking black metal. I loved folk metal, but it got to a point where I had listened to all the good stuff, and everything people rec'd was folky black metal. I managed to make myself like it, now I really enjoy it and it opened up a whole new avenue of music that has more depth than what I had previously listened to. Just an example.

>>60588822
what does obscurity have to do with anything? they're all great albums
>>60588855
youre just posting them to prove a point. if this was a chart thread you'd post your actual chart covered in scaruffi and fantano core shit just to fit in. STOP.

Come on, man. Pick one.
Also, Boats has had a pretty consistent top 10 for a while now.
>>60588883
i think that's just your cognitive dissonance speaking, he asked me to post my top 6 so that's what i did. why do you feel threatened by people's taste in music?
>>60588883
hey i'm not that boats guy but here's my actual chart and it's nothing like /mu/core because i don't listen to the genres that /mu/core is
>>60582224

>What is a Strawman?
>That's correct.
>I'll take logical phalluses for $500, alex
i dunno. maybe? maybe not? doesn't everyone have unique taste? that's kinda how music taste works i think
>>60588984
deep
>>60587985
huh? whats wrong with gaining some insight in someone elses perspective/mindset, some additional understanding, i dont get it. most of yourself, you gather from others, and you adopt to those others that surround you, whether you mean to or not, fkn deal with it
>>60588272
why would you not want to like as much different things as you could?
>>60588996
thanks :^)
Yes, no? I don't know.
