No you idiot. When a girl asks what music you like what she is really asking is "do you listen to exactly the same shit that I listen to". If you don't, she drops the subject. If she was actually interested in what you like she would talk about her interests first.
>>
>>can't mention too plebeian music or she'll think you are pleb and lose respect for you
Outside of /mu/ most people aren't concerned with how obscure something is.
I would just say "I've been listening to a lot of X lately" X being some not too obscure band that is representative of the sort of thing you like.

I have been getting into Royal Trux's discography (even though Twin Infinitives was a hard time listening to at first so Cats & Dogs and Accelerator are great albums to get into). Also checked out Squirrel Bait's EP and Skag Heaven LP. Great band (sounds like Husker Du with The Melvins or Early Nirvana).

>>
>>61640952
Why would I be talking to a girl?
>>
>>61640952
I just say I like all sorts of music and I listen to a lot of it, and that what makes music bad or good for me isn't always the same qualities. I might show an example of something easy, I try to look for clues to what they might digest easily. It's hit or miss, but it really doesn't matter. I rarely find that anyone treats this as a lynchpin with judging me and if they do they are generally obnoxious people for other reasons than just music.

>>61641384

i've meet a single girl in my entire life that was into music. She was disabled and pretty sure she used it as a medium to deal with depression.

I'm hitting on a 7/10 chick now. This is literaly what she has in her music section on facebook: rihanna, marron 5, shakira, michael jackson, eminem, beyonce, adele. I think she didn't even listen to a single beatles song, to have any discusion about them or music in general.

Fuck if I know what to tell her when we'll prob end up talking about music. I'm probably resort to "a bit of everything". I might give her some Arcade Fire songs since they have plebby videos for their best songs

It's easier when talking to plebs about music to ask what they like then go off that. Everyone here should know enough about music to be able to name a few bands similar to anything a pleb says they listen to.

I'll be straight up honest with all you 4channers who use reddit as an insult because you are edgy and think 4chan is deep and mysterious.

Reddit is a superior site in every way, the downvote system leads to no shit posts or trolls. High quality content gets pushed to the top, they have moderators that actually do their job, and they have community made communities (There can be a subreddit for anything, while 4chan is stuck to whatever board moot makes). Redditors aren't prentenious and I can always count on them for on-topic discussion. Meanwhile 4chan has multiple shit posters and so many off-topic discussions, not to mention pretenious edgy teens who think they have superior taste despite playing 0 instruments, 0 knowledge in music theory, and no taste of their own (they must use anthony fantano and p4k to tell them what musics good and what musics shit).

There I said it, I'm the one with enough balls to say the truth.

You're a hypocrite.

There are many times that you've decided to dumb your discourse down to get along in life. With mates, talking to random people you come across in public during the course of your day etc. You dumb yourself down all the time. We all do. It's simple social courtesy not to want to make another person that you suspect as being of lesser intelligence actually feel stupid. If you really are smart then be more of a diplomat about it.

You are going out of your way to be defiant about this when you talk to girls in a really amateurish and schoolboy way. Have a bit of common sense and don't try so hard to flex in light small talk. It's goofy and lame.

To be fair, I did Nazi that coming. I came here to say this but boy, that escalated quickly so to the top with you! Lost it at 'This is why we can't have nice things' and then my faith in humanity was restored, and manly tears were shed. Well said. Mind blown. As a 'Merican, I can confirm this gem has just won the internet and is doing it right. Just sayin', I know that feel, bro, and while that was a risky click, this post was a 9/10, would read again. I see what you did there and it feels good man. You're doing God's work, son. I understood that reference. I laughed way harder than I should have. You must be fun at parties. I like you. Doctors hate you! Instructions unclear. Dick caught in you magnificent bastard; you, sir, are so brave, a gentleman and a scholar, and seeing how you are a redditor for 4 years, this checks out, so I'll allow it. I regret that I only have one upvote to give for this cool story, bro. Dafuq? I read that as "YOU HAD ONE JOB". I can't fap to this. You must be new to Reddit, so I'll see your cakeday and raise you a karma train. One does not simply rustle my jimmies, not even once, and it's almost as if Reddit is composed of millions of individuals with different opinions and outlooks. This stahp gave me cancer for science, so that's enough internet for me today. OP is a bundle of sticks, 2/10 with rice, would not meet up for kisses, not with that attitude. What is this I don't even know how is this wtf? Circlejerk must be leaking. This will get buried but brace yourselves, some men want to watch the world burn right in the feels. When you see it, they'll KILL IT WITH FIRE! I really sympathize with pedophiles, but that has nothing to do with atheism. Lawyer up, delete facebook, hit the gym, and SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY, said no one ever, so you wouldn't download a strawman.

Please, point out the smugness in my answer or is everyone that likes classical a snob in your world? That my answer offended you so is indicative of your own insecurity.
>Hurry up and get past this bullshit adolescent grandstanding already.
I doubt my trajectory would be that of a patronising white-knight so you may still be disappointed.

Hah. Not quite. If it annoyed me at all it's because I can somewhat perceive through the few posts you've sent that you probably are indeed a bright guy so it's annoying and unfortunate to see someone like that leap through continual mental gymnastics to defend his choice to be a try hard wanker.

I'm sure if you put effort into it you could quip a dynamite line that would level this poor unsuspecting anon who wasn't at all ready for your wit and brio but it means nothing ultimately. In a few years you'll look back and wished you had dropped the precociousness and gotten over yourself back then. I am merely trying to help you get there quicker.

And you will be arriving at that conclusion eventually. Expect it.
