ITT: Albums 16 year olds think are "deep and challenging"
this is literally korn translated into a noise format
Why do you relish on the opinions of 16 year olds?
>>65239018
Prurient is the best example of 16-year-old noise
lo-fi foo fighters
this board can really fuck up how you perceive music if you don't know any better
literally just 21 pilots
It is really sad how many people on /mu/ feel threatened by the opinions of avanteens so they constantly make threads trying to bash them

i wish elitism was a thing again, could really benefit this board and probably a couple others
>>65239243
/sci/ and /mu/ have both been hit hard by anti-intellectualism.
>>65239046
what about sissy spacek or infinite body
>>65239243
When I first came to /mu/ there was a healthy dose of elitism that made this board as impervious to shitposters from the others as /a/ (for the most part is)
I'm not sure what happened
On one hand I can usually discuss even the most pleb genres I enjoy (k-pop, vaporwave) without getting mocked or ridiculed in any meaningful way but on the other it seems like it came at the cost of overall board quality
Maybe I care too much about this shithole
>>65239258
it's mostly fantano fans or people from /b/ since this board and /x/ seem to be the next step for anybody coming from there
i don't browse /sci/ so i wouldn't know
>>65239258
Because everyone knows 17-year olds who think of themselves as music-buff heavyweights for listening to Peter Brotzmann(whose music they still have no understanding of on a theoretical level) and The Gerogerigegege are /mu/'s true intellectual elite.
>>65239303
better than shitposts like OP's and poptimism
>>65238915
>>65239303
I used the word intellectual because I thought it covered both boards better than the word elitist. It's not so much important that everyone is a stuck up twat listening to intellectual music as it is that the norm is to seek out challenging and interesting music, because this makes for a much more enjoyable board.
>>65239303
At least in my experience they actually attempt to discuss music, which is a better road to go down for improving your taste than making threads like this ad nauseam
>>65239295

you're full of shit
>>65239379
Thanks for the (You), m8. Have one back !
this thread fucking sucks
>>65239405
>>65239379
thats not funny thats how my brother died
>>65239362
Not in the slightest. Maybe it was because I was younger in 2009 but the only thing extremely bad about /mu/ back then that's on par with how it is now were 1 in every 5 posters being a trip.
I guess some would probably find the constant tumblr sharing threads bad too but I was pretty indifferent.
imagine getting so mad about something as trivial as not getting an album that you make threads like this to attack people who do

>>65239321
Not better at all, actually.
>>65239356
>they actually attempt to discuss music
Have you ever actually been in any of the dedicated /mu/ generals for "intellectual listeners"?
/daily/ is a colossal tripfag circlejerk that revolves more around them assembling their stupid fucking album charts and listening tournaments than it does around actually listening to the music on those charts. Their attempts at discussing music are on the level of teenagers arguing in the comment sections of Anthony Fantano videos.
/RYM/ is nothing but user-related melodrama, bitching about getting banned because an RYM mod didn't like someone's snarky review or making fun of people for their ratings. They do not talk about music at all, and if they did they would have nothing substantial to say.
And /noise/ is just unbelievably, shockingly stupid and incompetent on every level. There's not been a single time that I checked that thread out and came out of it with the impression that anyone in there had any idea what of they were talking about.
>I'm an art intellectual.
>My favorite albums are Machine Gun, '77 Live, First Utterance, Deceit, Ape of Naples, Hole in Heart, and Divine Music From A Jail.
>My favorite movies are, of course, It's Such A Beautiful Day, House (the Japanese one that you plebs have never heard of), The Human Condition Trilogy, Blade Runner, and 2001: A Space Odyssey.
>Last but not least, my favorite books are Infinite Jest, Ulysses, and The Ego and Its Own.
Believe it or not, this is pretty much an accurate summary of every "intellectual" on this site.
>>65239649
I've been to a bunch although not those three. Usually its about the only time I can have a guaranteed discussion with minimal shitty memes getting in the way.
The one exception is /kpg/ which is 50% discussion 50% fap blogging depending on the time you go.
Also I can't speak for the three you listed but nobody in the ones I go to labels themselves something as pretentious as "intellectual listeners"
why make shitty meta threads like this instead of a thread where you
iunno
discuss music
inferiority complexes are a helluva drug
>This obsessed with looking cool
>>65239711
>"I listen to real art music, not that poser avant-teen crap! Bach, Beethoven, the list goes on!"
>>65241032
tbhonest wit u m8 that's the best of the best and they're the endgame of classical
>>65239711
Look at this embryo. Can't even parody these people correctly. 2001? Really? That's too deep for you? I'm sorry for you m8. No wonder you have such an inferiority complex.

t. person who doesn't listen to much classical outside of their high school band curriculum
>>65241053
/classical/ is that away
>>65198021
>>65238915
Yeah it's not that deep or challenging unless you are a pleb but it's still great.
>>65239711
being serious, is The human condition trilogy worth watching?
>>65238915
ITT: we tell people that they're idiot poseurs for liking albums we don't like
Boards of Canada
>>65238915
A real answer for you.
>>65241266
Doesn't need to be deep or challenging to be a damn good album, desu.
>>65241170
Yes. It's 9 hours long, but it's all amazing. I cried, and I have cried maybe three times in the past decade.
>>65239258
/sci/ is a joke of a board. I've seen a plethora of posts asking if they can be a physicist if they failed 10th grade algebra as a senior in high school, how to round numbers (seriously), and asking for help with 6th grade triangle geometry.
This is in addition to posters who ask dumb pseudoscientific questions.
I've only recently been on /mu/ but there is very little positive discussion here. People here have very little tolerance for differences in taste or differences in types of music. I'm guilty of unfair naysaying myself and I'll try to view music through a more objective and less judgmental lense in the future.
At least /mu/ is a vessel for accessing varied types of music that are difficult to find elsewhere. /sci/ just has very subpar list of textbooks in it's wiki.
here you go

>literally korn translated into a noise format
listening to prurient always seemed to me like a bit of a waste of time for that reason
something about the way he uses noise as this vehicle for totally histrionic and ridiculous goth angst never sat well with me
i mean this shit is just totally over the top, isn't it?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZVqMYgVZeY
What's up with the noise hate as of lately?
No, seriously, what's going on? Fuck this shithole.
>>65241326
nobody thinks wilco is challenging
>>65239711
I've never really seen Human Condition discussed, and nobody thinks House is anything more than bizarre fun.
It's also a bit sad that you see Blade Runner and 2001 as films that are too pretentious for you.
/daily/ sucks /mu/ sucks computer sucks shut the fuck up its a meme joke "haha"
>>65241437
>as of lately?
/mu/'s always largely hated noise
"noise isn't music"/"noise is shit"/"noise is pretentious garbage" threads have been a regular occurence on this board as far as i can remember, and they were always full of posts which agreed with the OP's claims
>>65241507
hey bud
i got a surprise for you
those were jokes
this is a joke comedy humor website image message board forum
>>65241586
i've been here longer than you mate, i remember people making threads shitting on merzbow and wolf eyes back in like 2008
>>65241623
HEY BUD
THOSE WERE ALSO JOKES
>>65241651
guess we're gonna have to agree to disagree on that one mate
prurient's a bit laughable though, we can at least agree on that right?
>>65241586
>>65241651
t. shitposter
>>65241288
good album? you mean angsty nu metal featuring angsty samples?
>>65241623
>i remember people making threads shitting on merzbow and wolf eyes back in like 2008
This. I love noise and is probably one of my favorite genres, but /mu/ has always hated noise for some reason. I remember lots of Masonna threads that got derailed quickly.
>>65239055
TFUL282 aren't deep, but theyre v good
>>65241906
this. It's an incredible album, and it's very clever and well-produced, but it's not "deep"
>>65239412
lol I know right
OP & company are making fun of "16 year old intellectuals" by discussing the ethics of what makes one an intellectual and why that's important to the current state of /mu/
fucking retards
Even though it isn't the best lrd album it's still great idk why people hate it all of a sudden
