I haven't been on this board in over a year. Here's what happened:
I started lurking here about five years ago. I listened to most of the albums posted here. Then, I started to develop my own taste. I started listening to more interesting, more obscure, more challenging music. I got bored with /mu/ and it seemed like the board was changing too.
It seemed like the same ~20 albums were being posted every day, and it seemed like there were no serious threads. Only memes. It seemed like everybody started listening to nothing but really mainstream rap like Kendrick Lamar and Drake and Death Grips and Chief Keef, or really bland pop music like Charli XCX and FKA Twigs and Lorde, or really watered down "indeh" music like Mac DeMarco, The XX, and Tame Impala.
So what's new? Has anything changed?
Do you still think Captain Beefheart is weird or obscure?
Do you still think photoshopping Fantano into an album cover, or typing lyrics in all caps is somehow funny?
Do you still read Pitchfork and worship black people?
Do you still think Radiohead is anything other than a bland pop rock band?
Do you still listen to the same 20 albums and never deviate from the "essentials" chart?
Do you still like radio-tier pop music?
This board was alright if you're just getting into music, and even then its pretty mediocre, but it seemed like when I left, the board wasn't even okay anymore. It was just bad.
Has anything changed?
