Usually when I'm out with others I avoid playing ANY fucking rock music since they've all been too persuaded by pop/trap rap and garbage EDM. I might popular pleb rock bands of the 00s like fall out boy or some DJ Shadow or Disclosure

>>66370603
Are you and your friends underage?

Also, almost all of my friends have awful taste in music, like, either generic mainstream pop or dadrock. When i put something they say it's weird or just plain bad.

be honest, no one ever asked you that
>>66370879
I can recall two occasions when this occurred:
Once when I told a friend I listened to death metal, and she asked with incredulity if I study while listening to it.
Another time I was studying on the plane while listening to hooded menace, and my dad asked what I was listening to. He gave it a listen and asked how I could study with that music playing.

metal blocks out any distractions or mind wandering, also you can't get distracted by the lyrics
as a bonus, the songs (especially in extreme metal) are fairly free-form, so there isn't a build up to a chorus or some moment that is the crux of the song that you "have" to listen to, so you can tune in and out
>>66371374
it really sounds like that
>>66371106
i like BoC but that is exactly how it would be perceived by your average person

>>66371444
also, it didn't say "DUMB reactions to your music" just "reactions to your music"
>>66371378
desu he was kinda right
>>66371444
it depends entirely on the band.
something very dramatic and momentous like Behemoth wouldn't work if you want to study, but something very steady and collected like Inquistion works wonders.
>friend in class asks what im listening to
>takes headphones from me
>Listening to John Grant
>"Hey this is pretty gay"
>went home and cut myself
>>66371536
for me the main distraction if it has a blatant build up to a chorus or something, which is why some power metal and old school heavy metal works less well for studying
>>66371286
hardcore techno keeps you woke as fuck.
but yeah it's hard not to stop working to stomp on imaginary ants while you're listening to it
>>66371444
>>66371555
>those digits
I am on a roll
>>66371555
In a way it's very symptomatic of a weakness of extreme metal, where no matter how harsh and brutal it is, it tends to end up as a continuous goop of abrasiveness with no strong moments or dynamics.
Unless the band has very cool riffs or know how to structure songs interestingly, of course.

do those retards not understand that they don't even listen to the music because they like the sound? They just want to listen to the "drop" which is designed the same way in every single song created in that genre. It's jarring. And then I have to get mocked for it because my taste in music isn't dictated by how "sick" the fucking drop is?

I showed my Mum Selected Ambient Works, she liked it a lot. Then I tried to show her 808 State's 90 on a separate occasion and she said it was boring. I don't play music much around my relatives because it's too difficult to predict their tastes and I don't want to be seen as a sperg.

I played Air once at work and they all called it weird elevator music.

Uh because the basis of modern music is mainly Blues and Folk music, with some elements of Jazz and early electronic music.

Weezer - Pink Triangle
One time I put on Moby's 18 album. Part way through it, my brother comments "this is decent, but it's not really representative of its genre."
He then cuts it off and queues up video game remixes.

>listening to discordance axis while I'm working out without earphones

I showed my parents Kero Kero Bonito and they fucking loved it.
Feels good.

It's your fault for playing last nite anon
>>66376692
This songs hits too hard.
i played sometimes and to here knows when in the car on a road trip
>is it supposed to sound like this? It sounds like static
>anon what kind of music is this
>>66371596
There can be dramatic changes in the music. However, if there's one point in the song that's the main focus of the song then you can't "miss it," whereas with a metal song with two breakdowns and one slam section and interesting stuff in between you can choose when you want to tune in and out.
>>66370281
I just play music I think they will like from out of my music.
My parents like emo for some reason.
>>66374675
Well anon,when will you?
>>66376127
Your mom is right it is shit.
>>66377194
The only time my mom liked what I was playing was a Ningen-Isu song because it sounded like "good old rock and roll music."
>>66377197

>Her: This is freaking me out.

>Her: Eh.
>Me: Plays Bright Eyes
>Her: Well now I'm really going to fall asleep.
>Me: Plays Morphine
>Her: I hate that you like this guy, he's SO weird.
>Me: Sigh
And don't even get me started on when I tried to show my Mom and some of my friends Leonard Cohen.

>she actually likes it but the intermission in Brother Sport gets "too heavy" for her
all in all it's pretty fun to show my mom music but I can't play anything too rock-y because she wants me to turn it off. for example even Elephant by Tame Impala was too much
>>66377383
Jfc bro get a new gf. My gf lets me play almost whatever she even deals with a lot of the black metal that she doesnt like. And i do the same with her.

If you're not expecting it the beginning of Everything In It's Right Place will get you if you're expecting a normal Rock/Pop/Rap song
especially if it's in a car and the sounds are jumping around all over the place
>>66372178
And here I am wishing my parents were less into NIN...
>>66373765
I fucking hate when that bit plays. I once interrupted sex to hit next because it sounds like a banshee dying for two minutes
>>66375538
to be honest my family actually listened to some stuff i made and they were pleasantly suprised
it was just simple stuff though,mostly easy listenable things i composed on a whim

>>66370281
I play Radiohead a ton when my mom is in the car, we both almost fall asleep and all I can think of is how ironic it would be to die listening to Airbag.

no way. you guys know what will happen and you do it anyway because you like picking the scab
also a lot of this music sucks anyway so get over yourselves
oh yeah, and like you instantly liked all the music you like now. yeah right. you had to get used to rougher vocals, slower/less catchy songs, inferior production quality etc. i'm sure a lot of it sounded bad/boring/depressing to you at first too
so don't sit here belittling people like taste in music reflects character/intellect or whatever it is that you people think when you look down on people who don't listen to fucking explosions in the sky or whatever the fuck

okay maybe my post is autistic soapboxing but what does reddit have to do with it? is that like just your go to
>>66381314
well it IS a thing that people say if you left your house and spent time with other people
Would you prefer me to say "be high on marijuana and also drunk off of alcoholic beverages simultaneously" instead????
>>66381413
most parties involve both drinking and marijuana smoking so the term is redundant. people only really use it when they first get into drinking/drugs

>>66381452
Except being drunk feels different then being high and being both at the same time is also a whole different experience
It is more descriptive to your state of mind to say, "drunk", "high", or "crossfaded"
I'm sorry that you're so degenerate that you don't even feel the need terms describe how fucking off the deep end you are
>>66375004
you played Soundtracks for your family? y tho
>>66371378
don't be mad cause your friend has superior taste
>>66372973
In events that didn't happen, that is the most didn't happenest.
I always talked about music and playing the guitar and "analyzing" music in highschool so all my friends thought of me as the rec guy, so I never had guilty pleasures, or experiences like that. Thank you based non-stereotypical high school classmates.
>>66381377
>getting mad about people not liking pop/accessible music
>saying Explosions is inaccessible and obscure
sounds like /r/popheads or /r/music or /r/lewronggeneration to me
Played Aphex Twin the Come to Daddy EP, first the faulteroy mix, which they all liked, and then the Pappy mix and then they all got really silent and someone jacked the aux.

i kekd but it hurt
i showed my sister some of my rapping I've been doing for the past 1.5 years today, the first of my family members to hear it.
>"Wow anon, I didn't know you could do this, I'm impressed"
>>66370281
My mom will tolerate a lot of the stuff I play, but I think she doesn't really enjoy it. I got my best friend into music back into high school, and now aside from some popular stuff he kinda listens to whatever I listen to. Shit's cash, I can play Swans in the car, and he doesn't care.
