My town was 92% white, middle class average. We were literally a giant residential area. 5 radio stations, two classic rock, two were sub pleb tier radio pop (both were even DJ'd by obnoxious sounding middle aged women), and one 'indie' station that just played hozier, 21 pilots and muse

kinda valid but honestly playing your more obscure music you know your friends wont like is a bad idea.

the rest are just people getting mad at other people for not being as into music as they are. il still never get why people get mad when someone says "everything mostly" to describe what they listen to. I do like everything mostly or at least will try anything, and it is easier to say things i'm not into than it is things im into because theres a lot im into and i don't want to discourage someone from showing me something crazy just because i didnt remember to list it in my 5 genres i liked.

idc anymore. i have ascended. i accept that people have their tastes because it's just where they are in their headspace; they're happy there and they don't care to push the boundaries to see what's out there. everyone initially heard 'pleb' shit to start off on. some people just don't care to move on from it

a while ago i started writing peoples band recommendations in my phone when i was out, because i'd always forget them. it really drove home just how run-of -the-mill most peoples tastes are.

you also gotta be sensible about your picks as well, especially at parties. no one wants noise or dsbm or slow no-wave at a party. it's surprising how many /mu/ meme albums go down reasonably well at parties.

i've got mates that listen to the standard dad-rock/metal bands. same 10 or so albums for over a fucking decade now. i chucked on bitches brew because fuckit drunk. i was expecting someone to curse at me and take it off but it didn't happen. got through all 90 minutes of it.
>>
I'm so glad my closest bros have the same taste in music. 1 of em we even met because of music.
Heh, and this reminds me, a while back my dad visited, and I showed him my new speakers. I also like some stuff from his time, so we went through a few songs, then I remembered Disturbed's cover of The Sound of Silence, and turned it on. He didn't think much of it in the beginning, but as it went on and more instruments joined, and then the powerful singing, he actually liked it.

>I think this isn't actually most people oftentimes anyway.
me either. maybe it's just the people i choose to hang around with

there was one old guy i worked with who was pretty fucking obsessed with the beatles. everything he heard he'd compare back to the beatles and would say they're just rehashing what the beatles already did. at one point he was telling me a band was lifting off the beatles for using a mellotron.

You're the dummy for trying to just throw on an overwhelming and challenging album like loveless when you're hanging with your friends. Yeah, I get people on here don't think of loveless as challenging, because it's so popular, but to any normal person it is. You proved that yourself. You gotta pick music that everyone will like, or at least is similar to things they like. Can't just throw on a genre they haven't heard before and expect them to praise it and confirm your taste

My brother once generalized, saying one of the stupidest things I've ever heard:
>You can see that every artist have this "teenager against the world phase", then a "trying to change the world and criticizing phase" and a "romantic phase". He pointed at Linkin Park as example.
Anyway, one of the albums that kinda included every one of those mentioned has one of the best songwriting, specially for a teenager: "Pure Heroine", "400 Lux" and "Ribs" are the best from the album, "Royals" kinda sucks ass.

I legitimately cannot tell when people are pretending to be retarded anymore. Post irony has thrown shit out of wack.

From now on, just assume everyone is a fucking retard and say "shut up retard." Negative reinforcement is the only way to stop this "bait" (trolling).

posted this months ago, but gonna post it again because it's relevant:

i'm a pretty calm and patient person, but trying to show music to my normie friends is something that gets me really frustrated. i have a friend who acts like she's ready to give an album a full comprehensive review after just one listen. the worst part is she tries to sound like a professional critic when 90% of the time she has no idea what the fuck she's talking about.

but even worse is another person I know who won't even finish a song if he doesn't find the first 45 seconds interesting on first listen. and likewise, they like to act like a professional music critic after this.

i usually send them stuff to check out and they give me their impressions afterwards. with that in mind, can you imagine trying to show someone some music you like, and then a day later, they tell you they didn't even get past 45 seconds of the first song of the album? and then directly afterwards they try talk like a professional music critic on how it simply isn't good?

the idea that something isn't worth your time if you don't like it on first listen is so well cemented in the typical normie mindset. i explained to a friend the concept of letting music grow on you and he found it mindboggling.
>>
This entire thread is just dummies putting on /mu/core and expecting their normie friends to love it and praise their taste. The only time I ever put on anything /mu/ related is to joke around since I know they won't like it.

In regards to the topic of this thread, the only time anything has ever gotten me mad was talking to a girl about music and I asked her what her favorite band was, she replied with My Chemical Romance, her favorite emo band. She said she felt that she could relate to the "crushing and heart-breaking lyrics" and then started talking about Fall Out Boy. I said those bands weren't really emo then she cited Wikipedia saying MCR and Fall Out Boy were emo. This was around a week ago tbhfam
