Musical confessions thread
Lets see em lads
>I claim to be a massive David Bowie fan but I've only listened to the Berlin Trilogy and greatest hits
>I've never listened to Kanye West or Death Grips and I have no intention of doing so.
>I claim that I love obscure 90's indie but I only listen to Pavement and entry level shoegaze
>I unironically love Taylor Swift
I 100% sincerely believe that this is AOTY.
>>61004295
Thats not even a confession you're no different then 95% of music listeners
attention whore
>I listen to this album quite often and love every second of it
i secretly still listen to a lot of buttrock and nu metal
>>61004339
literally why do you care so much
i fucking hate kurt cobain as a person. the music he made was OK but many of the things he said were just rage-inducingly stupid
>>61004295
>I unironically love Taylor Swift
Cool. Me too. Although and I think you're a retard for using the word 'unironically'
>Dark Side of The Moon isn't my first Pink Floyd album, or my favourite, but I listen to it at least once a day.
>I bought a copy of Unknown Pleasures because I thought 'Love Will Tear Us Apart, Again' was on it.
>Sometimes I say I'm a huge fan of an artist even though I've only heard a handful of songs by them
>I often buy albums and just never listen to them, or just take years to get around to them
>>61004295
what a life, eh?
>>61004552
>Sometimes I say I'm a huge fan of an artist even though I've only heard a handful of songs by them
i do this wih the microphones, i've listened to a few of their albums but the only ones i remember are mount eerie and glow p2. ive been meaning to look at their other stuff tho
>>61004313
But it is, though
>used to listen to Alternative and Indie shit in high school
>now listen to J-Pop and K-Pop most of the time
I feel as though I've regressed...
>>61004295
Death Grips and Swans are my favourite bands. Niggas on the Moon, Soundtracks for the Blind, To Be Kind, and ITAOTS are my favourite albums of all time.
i dont actually like music i just come here to shitpost. i cant even name any classic artists or rap singers. i will say though i do enjoy third eye blind and thats about it for music.
>>61004552
>Sometimes I say I'm a huge fan of an artist even though I've only heard a handful of songs by them
no offense brother but you're fake and gay

10/10 post
>>61004909
Well to be fair the only person I'm telling it to would be myself
i sometimes start listening to bands because i want to buy a piece of merch they have
>>61005048
that's pretty autistic but it's still a million times better than buying merch without listening to them
>>61005077
if i don't like them i won't still buy it tho
>>61005098
oh
then fuck you
>>61004907
Third Eye Blind is a great band anon.
>>61005106
ty anon
i have jerked off to grimes hairy armpit pictures
>>61005106
whoops, misread your post
I don't judge music on its actual merits, I judge it based on the feels it gives me.
>>61004374
i too enjoy that album anon but instead of listening to that one often i listen to dude ranch often
>>61005151
what do you mean buy its merits?
>>61004397
Because this is a confession thread?
I'm a 36 year old mother who loves Linkin Park and Green Day.

You are a walking meme, how does it feel?
>>61005203
>I'm not like the other moms
>mfw you share a music discussion board with these people
>mfw there's probably dozens more
I hate this shithole. I hate it so much. Why can't I escape.

>I have tried several times to make noise rock general a thing, but despite /noise/ and /metal/ existing, it never sticks
I'd love to be part of it.
The thing you need to make is doing a fancy sticky with a lot of recs and shit.
I honest to god love coldplay and their early work.
Viva la Vida is arguably the best pop album of the past 10 years
>>61005763
Sadly, I know quite a bit about Japanese noise rock, but less about the western stuff (and I find Sonic Youth boring).
But I'll see what I can do.
I already said a few of these a few weeks ago but meh
>i dont like st vincent and in the past i was constantly making st vincent threads and acting as a waifufag sopeople would hate her, guess what, it worked and it was fun

What about music that incorporates noise?

its not viraling, im just sharing some music that i love t b h f a m

>Almost everyone on this board listens to flavour of the month shit and doesn't actually have any bands that they truly like

>Everyone that listens to Kpop/Jpop should die by firing squad
>Swans, Radiohead, Beach House, Kendrick, Pavement, Pink Floyd, Joy Division - all terrible
> >>61005151 is the corrrect way to judge music. If you don't connect with it on an emotional level it's basically worthless to you
>>61005786
Try to put a lot of 'new' bands (lightning bolt, destruction unit, etc) so people will contribute more and have more activity
>>61005788
Wombats guide to love loss and desperation is a really fun album. Can't say their new stuff holds up though, what do you think about it?
>>61005848
>/Jpop
What about Japanese art pop?

How can you not love Taylor. I love Lady Gaga too
>>61005848
>Almost everyone on this board listens to flavour of the month shit and doesn't actually have any bands that they truly like
correct
everything else is wrong but that's correct
>>61005993
That's the best part about /mu/. I only come here to check out whats hot right now so I don't miss out on stuff. Would've missed mgła i.e.
>>61005889
this modern glitch is just as good but very different and the b sides to the singles are better than the album itself
glitterbug has some good songs on it and some eh songs on it i think theyre trying to become a new wave band
>>61005153
that's totally fine senpai. the mst important thing in any work of art is not the intention of the artist but how does the work makes you feel, what it does to your mind, how does the work influence your feelings or thoughts. Never let anyone make you believe something else is more important.
>ur all fagets and i dont really care about any of you
>>61004295
The Dark side of the Moon is mediocre at best
I used to enjoy Dubstep
Nirvana is overrated
Joy Division is alright
Steven Wilson albums can be cringe worthy as hell but pretty alright for the most part
I actually like Lady Gaga
I think this board is dead
I think Station to Station is best bowie's work but Heroes exist so it is hard to pick between the two
>>61005203
You're what we used to call an easy lay.
>>61004374
The Buddha version of Carousel is godtier.
>>61004295
why would like to be counted as a bowie fan anyway? it's like saying "I'm an aspie and I'm a fan of the aspie lifestyle"
I enjoy it when the sound is so overcompressed that the volume gets momentarily silenced by kick drums or beats, even though I know it's a horrible mastering practice
>>61005909
not gonna lie it's always just too goofy for my taste. Idk what the actual Western Jpop fan looks like but I can't imagine non-manchildren liking this
Death Grips is fucking horrible.
Kid Cudi's new album isn't that bad.
I primarily don't listen to Beach House anymore because they're insanely popular, and I'm suck of listening to the same shit over and over again.
I have never listened to a full song by the Beatles.
Grimes sucks and needs a nose job.
I used to pretend I like Abba only ironically, I've come out since then and I feel better about myself now
>>61005788
>>i claim to listen to music concrete but i dont really
Same here...
>>61004406
such as?
>>61005710
>I'm pretty social and I like people, which is nice in general but makes me feel like an outsider on /mu/
cool now you feel like they will in social situations, but for them it's worse because it is more direct
>>61006396
This is the worst post ever
i openly listen to some nu metal and pop hits, also 90s eurodance hits. i don't care how people see me. some plebs do seem to think i'm shit because of that, but whatever. not cool enough or something. i'm the same with movies and tv too, my favorites are genuinely all kinds of art films but i can also watch the kardashians and enjoy it. i hate that i should fit into one stupid category
I highly base albums to check out on album cover
>>61006840
this
I talk shit about AnCo and have only heard a little of MPP
>>61006840
Me too. How could I forget this one ? If any of my fav albums had a shit cover art, I really do think I'd like it less.
>>61006249
True
>>61004295
>I think every genre has something amazing to offer except for shoegaze and beach pop
>I hate audiophiles
>early 00s black music and 80s power ballads are the worst thing ever to happen to music
>the vast majority of sad songs are genuinely bad or cringeworthy
>the vast majority of >10 tracks are shit
>J-pop is a genuinely underrated genre
i claim that i love music but i barely listen to more than 2 albums a day
>>61005787
Kek
>>61007084
you dont need more than that
>>61007029
fuck I meant dream pop lmao
i used to defend Marilyn Manson up until Born Villain. Currently I really dislike him and anyone that likes his last record or think anything post Eat Me Drink Me is good. There are a few "good" songs but overall is completly shit.
I hate the "cut-up style" in Bowie's lyrics.
This year has been the most boring in music, videogames and films IMHO, but it may be that i'm a 21 year old guy who lives in Venezuela and everything's been so fucked up the last couple of years that i might be dead inside already and i can't enjoy things as I used to. I'm not losing hope tho and been keeping myself up with books (even if i don't read that much anymore), jazz, salsa, death metal and theater.
I really like /mu/ but you really need to stop talking about the same albums over and over.
I have to force myself and pretend to like the Beatles. I'm tired of being called a contrarian hipster but their music is so fucking bland and boring.
Most of my music taste comes from 68 - 80 but I don't say that because I don't want to look like a wrong generationer
Phil Spector is a better producer than Brian Eno, and in fact Eno isn't even that good, he just knows how to find fantastic artists and latch onto their projects. He literally did nothing while producing Q:A and Low.
Scaruffi is genuinely an intelligent man, even if I disagree with him on certain things.
the kinks are the best band of the sixties
>>61004295
>I claim that I love obscure 90's indie but I only listen to Pavement and entry level shoegaze
Check out Dogbowl for indie and The Evstasy of St Theresa for shoegaze
This is grossly oversimplified but is all I can think of right now.
>>61007369
All of them, except music taste thing. I think the 90' gave us the most amazing music and is only topped by 1967-1974.
>>61007389
true tbf
>>61007369
>he just knows how to find fantastic artists and latch onto their projects
but this is not an opinion thing, it is just factually wrong.
he co-writes a lot of the stuff he helps to produce
I listed to albums through YouTube because I can't afford records
>>61005048
I do this
>>61007499
Download Soulseek.
I tell people I'm into new wave garage rock but I actually only ever listen to Guilt Trip by PUP.
I also say I'm big into shoegaze but only listen to Ninth Paradise and Nothing.
Musically, I am a shitlord.
I don't care if the music is left or right.

LET'S TALK ABOUT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A CONFESSION THREAD AND A SOAPBOX FOR YOUR SHITTY OPINIONS
>>61004339
How can you be anonymous and an attention whore?
Whats the point?
If its no differant than anyone else then whats the attention thats being seeked?
I have two different modes for listening to music.
MODE 1: sitting and listening to music
>Genesis
>Kate Bush
>Marvin Gaye
>Mew
>Ben Frost
MODE 2: pretending I'm a famous musician performing live
>Bleachers
>The 1975
>Walk the Moon
>Ghost
>Everything Everything
--it's really embarrassing even though no one knows I do it. Probably 25% of my music library is music that's only really good for closing my eyes and pretending I'm famous.
>>61008429
Bleachers' I Wanna Get Better is definitely the type of song I'd pretend I'm performing
>I always look up the ratings to an album before listening to it
>>61004295
i dont claim to be a huge bowie fan and ive listened to his discography and then some
i hate kanye and ive heard 90% of his stuff and couldnt get through one death grips album
i dont claim to love obscure anything but specifically 90s indie ive listened to plenty and have some favorites. in fact i would never have a conversation with someone wherein i would utter the words "I love obscure band name goes here"
T Swift is a talented singer song writer only by mainstream modern radio standards
youve outed yourself as someone who doesnt even like music
>>61004800
Welcome to 4chan
Part of the reason I listen to so much pop music is just that it makes me feel like a grill
>>61007389
VU > Beatles > The Kinks > The Stones > The Doors >>>>>> Beach Boys
not including Dylan, Hendrix, Neil Young cause they aren't "bands"
>>61007499
What is Spotify?
Even if you are a NEET, surely you could stretch to 5.99 a month?? Or don't you have a credit card/bank account?
>>61004295
>i think portugal the man is one of the greatest bands of all time
>i unironicaly like yung lean and the sadboys

St. Vincent is my favorite musician at the moment
I cut a slit in the lining of my backpack and I sometimes go to used record stores and steal valuable 7"s with picture sleeves to sell on discogs to help pay for food and rent. I am friendly with the people behind the counter at some record stores and they definitely don't know it's me. I've been doing this sort of thing since I was in middle school.
According to Spotify I've played Avril 349 times this year.
>>61009337
If serious, fuck yeah. If not, oh well.
>>61009384
you've listened to avril lavigne almost once per day
wat the fuk
>>61004295
Listen to Ziggy Stardust and Hunky Dory at least anon. Those are pretty great.
>>61009066
>Beatles, The Kinks and The Stones all above The Doors
>>61009382
ugh. steal from publicly-traded companies, not some guy's struggling dream
>>61009560
Sometimes I feel a bad about it, but when I'm not thinking entirely clearly and having no money is keeping me from getting the things I want (food, etc) I can rationalize it. Stealing from big stores is harder and riskier because they have security and little mercy for shoplifters.
>>61006602
ABBA are great anon.
>>61007029
Most of these, I agree, but
>Shoegaze and Dream Pop don't have anything great to offer
Die.

Sick triple dubs m8
>>61009382
>>61009653

>>61008429
Its ok anon.
I dance to many albums, often pretending I'm playing/singing. Pawn Hearts and Marquee Moon are the best examples of this.
>>61004800
same, but I've stopped listening to Asian pop full stop since a few months ago

>>61005048
I talk myself out of buying band merch
>>61005577
this board has nothing to offer in terms of real music conversatio, it's shallow and vapid, I come here out of habit because I've been coming here since 2008
I don't fucking like anything. I can not find my go-to genre, and it pisses me off.
