I'm straight and I love Coil, my gay friend says they're shit instead. How do you explain?
>>64057036
I'm not saying you can't like them, but you'll never understand the feelings that come with being gay which brought these artists to create, therefore limiting your experience with their music.

What even sexual orientations should have to do with the musical experience dude? Come on.
>>64057336
it isn't so much about experience as it is about being able to relate closely to the sentiments expressed through an artists' work. anyone can have an objective understanding of a piece of music, but the emotional intricacies vary in their impact from person to person.
>>64057336
well, i think i enjoy the Smiths more than the average straight guy because of my sexuality
it's a gay thing™
>>64057336
being gay is more than just a sexual orientation. it shapes your entire being, and that's reflected in the music.
i find that gay artists have a certain depth and compassion in their music that's nonexistent in your average straight band.

I'm straight but I see zero issue with this.
Resonance bridges all of that if you're a bright person and you have an ear for pathos, and I'd imagine a lot of straight 'Coil' listeners are probably pretty bright dudes like that in their own respective ways too.

That's what they want you to think!
>>64057336
Sexuality is (consciously and subconsciously) an important part of life and one's personality and behaviour, therefore most of the time it (ranging from slightly to greatly) influences the art one makes and how one percieves other's people art.
That said; at least in the Coil albums I've heard sexuality doesn't seem to be present enough for them to be something 'straight people can't understand' except for maybe a few songs. However I've only heard their later stuff so idk, plus I'm straight.
COIL ISN'T GAY MUSIC
"RITUALISTIC MUSIC FOR THE ACCUMULATION OF MALE SEXUAL ENERGY" DOES NOT NECESSARILY MEAN IT'S GAY.
we've had this argument before and I won.

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR A GUY TO COME AND TAKE ME BY THE HAND
COULD THESE SENSATIONS MAKE ME FEEL THE PLEASURES OF ANOTHER MAN
>>64057711
Does it also mean you have your heard up your arse?
>>64057183
so you dont understand the other 80% of music written by straight folk?
desire is desire
fuck your pink pantone veil, though i fundamentally respect what may be different about it. what is the same may in fact be what is more radical
fuck you, Jacques.
Is this just a thread to post gay musicians?
