Shhh. OP i'll discuss music with you

Any good Young Thug albums you been listening to lately?
>>
When I listened to the Fanboy and Chum Chum soundtrack, all other music became shitty and irrelevant to me.
>>
>>64208798
probably cuz they do nothing but browse 4chan all day

like me
>>
>>64208818
If you avidly discuss anything pushed by a commercial publication then you know nothing about music.
>>
>>64208837
wouldn't you rather go smoke with your friends than in your room on an anonymous image board laughing to yourself?
>>
>>64208867
I don't want to get cancer, so no.

>>64208847
What does the commercial side have to do with the quality of the music?
>>
>>64208909
They wouldn't push a product they couldn't sell en masse.

oh.
i gave you the benefit of the doubt thinking you were just celebrating 420 in your own way, but it turns out you're actually just retarded. neat.

black saint and sinner lady vs trout mask replica
which is better?
go.

>>64208945
Sorry for not being 12 years old.
>>
>>64208927
But there are many reasons a project may be difficult to reach an audience. That doesn't make it bad. Comus's first utterance despite being pushed and promoted failed with the masses because it was too inaccessible and the were overshadowed by the british prog rock scene at the time, and now it has a cult following as a fantastic album. Why was its quality bad for failing to appeal to a certain ignorant mass?
>>
>>64208995
Both are overrated.
>>
>>64208995
Black Saint

But Safe as Milk is far better than both
>>
>>64208961
Thelonious Monk is fantastic but he's pretty entry-level jazz bro. I don't understand why you're acting all cool for listening to one of the most acclaimed bop artists ever.
>>
>>64209042
OK maybe when you come back here with an example of good, important music, I'll take you seriously.
>>
THE LIST GOES ON
>>
>>64209058
This thread isn't about Thelonious Monk you moron, I just posted the first cover I had in my pictures folder.
>>
>>64208961
>>he doesn't know Thelonious Monk
Everyone knows fucking Thelonious. It's such common entry level music it's not worth mentioning.
If Thelonious gets your dick hard because you think you're "musically literate" I have news for you.
>>
>>64209077
So come one then champ, prove your superiority, could do with the laugh.
>>
>>64209107
No, he definitely didn't know Thelonious Monk. More than half of /mu/ doesn't even know Monk.
How literate do you think this shithole is?
>>
This thread is getting off topic.

Favorite Can song?

>>64209077
>This thread isn't about Thelonious Monk you moron
I never said it was lol. You're making a lot of assumptions itt and it's kind of childish
>>
>>64209061
I'm only giving an example, I don't need to explain the history of popular music to you for you to know that one you're saying is complete bullshit.

Ziggy Stardust- 70's glam
Remain In Light- new wave
Another Green World- ambient music
Hounds Of Love- pop music
Revolver- do I even need to say
Loveless- influenced an easy 80% of shoegaze to come after it at least
X- the germany prog electronic scene

All albums that were pushed by a label and reached tremendous levels of commercial and critical success and were highly important
>>
Judging by OP's responses in this thread, we can lump OP in that 90%
>>
>>64209168
>Ziggy Stardust
Unimportant. Pioneered nothing new.
>Remain in Light
Unimportant. See Reich's Drumming.
>Another Green World
See Satie 50-70 fucking years earlier.
>Hounds of Love
Unimportant. Pioneered nothing new.
>Revolver
Unimportant compared to Pet Sounds and Freak Out!
>Loveless
Pioneered a nothing-genre but sure.
>>
>>64209149
>he definitely didn't know Thelonious Monk
>>64209107
>>64208950
I posted both of these, you shitposting scum.

Who is Thelonious Monk and why should I care who he is?

>pioneered nothing new

That doesn't make it unimportant, and I never called them the first of their genre, I called them highly influential, which is objectively true. I see now that nothing will drill through your thick head since you call shoegaze a nothing-genre purely because it doesn't appeal to YOU specifically, so maybe this argument is moot. Either way you should try entering some more objectivity into your thinking instead of immediately discarding all commercially released music as unimportant to defend your own ridiculous ideas. To say Remain In light was a not an important album is to deny reality.
>>
>>64209227
>floundering so hard as to discredit several extremely important albums

How embarrassing
>>
>>64209317
All I see is a teenage tripfag with no understanding of music history.
>>
>>64209227
>Literally all opinions.
>>
>>64209338
Huh, did you not recognize the very entry level names I dropped? Are you really that fucking pleb?
>>
>>64209345
I don't claim to have studied music history for years. I have a moderate understanding of the development of blues and artists like Blind Willie Johnson and Robert Johnson that begat styles of country with old artists like Bob Will and R&B that would lead to motown and shit like that. I'm not promoting myself as a professor of music history, I'm just asserting that an album is not automatically shit or unimportant because it was pushed commercially. That's a straw man argument
>>
>>64209365
I don't see any list of names in this thread outside of what hot opinion posted. Havin' a good 420 retard?
>>
>>64209570
Well, you didn't prove your case because all you did is list a lot of commercially promoted albums that ultimately aren't important in music history in the slightest.
>>
>>64209598
Reich's Drumming
Satie
Pet Sounds and Freak Out!

etc
>>
>>64209625
Pet sounds was pushed by a commercial label you fucking dunce. You've destroyed your entire argument by defending it. Well done
>>
>>64209043

Correct answer
>>
>>64209625
dude you're retarded
>>
>>64209625
ITT: retard OP uses popular commercial releases as a defense for why commercial releases are inherently shit. Well Done
