I've noticed that /mu/ know longer likes Billy Corgan. Is it because he's an Alex Jonesboo?
Because he stopped making good music.
I don't like him because his music sucks and he's a jerk but I like Alex Jones
Reads like 'he fngered many chicagoan women' #williamcorgYY

The Past Tense
I don't understand why I generally see so much dislike for Queen on /mu/. Is it because their popular and Reddit loves them? I admit a lot of their stuff is not great, but especially in their earlier albums there are plenty of gems. I used to like them a lot when I was younger and then I kinda stopped listening, but every time I decide to give them a listen I always enjoy it a lot.

>Is it because their popular and Reddit loves them?
Yeah, thats why people hate radiohead and nmh here too!
Oh, wait a moment
I never feel the desire to listen to Queen over everything else there is.
Queen were the Coldplay of their day
I understand what Waters was trying to do with this album, and it's clear how frustrated he still was with his father's death (even as he was nearing 40 years old) and how that connects with Thatcher's intervention in the Falklands, but I can't help but admit that I'm just not really feeling it. I only listened to it for the first time just now, but there didn't seem to be much about almost any of the tracks to keep the listener engaged other than the ever-looming "I'm angry" message -- and Waters will not hesitate for one moment to remind you that's how he's feeling. There are no hooks here to keep you interested, nothing terrible memorable to make you want to revisit it, nothing that made past Pink Floyd albums as outstanding as they were. I'm supposed to feel sorry for Waters, right? -- and if so, in what way? Pitiful that his father died and that we keep going to war, forgetting about domestic issues in the process, or sorry that he couldn't really convey that frustrated feeling in an all too convincing manner? Overall, I certainly don't feel that it's a bad album, but it doesn't exact feel like a great one, either. Maybe it could have come out stronger if Pink Floyd were still working as a group, instead of being Waters' backup band. It's not nearly as bad as the Gilmour era, at least.
What do you think? Like it? Hate it? Mixed?

Good thoughts, OP. I used to feel the same way (save for When the Tigers Broke Free - very powerful song). But lately I feel like it is a singular achievement, even if it isn't the best Floyd album. There's just nothing like it. Take some time away then revisit it, it's a grower if there ever was one. The hooks come from the burst of saxophone, guitar, or Waters' own voice rising and falling around the subtle arrangements and sound effects. One of the most interesting, if flawed, statements put out by a group. It's good for me when I'm feeling in a down, calm mood.

I genuinely feel like I'm the only one who thoroughly enjoys Gilmour-era Floyd.
I feel like the Final Cut is a better version of the Wall, albeit less catchy. it also displays a broader range of worldwide issues, while the Wall seems purely autobiographical at least for the most part. There's a lot less filler tracks as well, sticking to the anti-war message in the album. I feel like Roger did really well showing his genuine feelings through the album.
My favorite track is probably The Gunner's Dream:

I find TFC to be extraordinary. It's not Pink Floyd's best album, by a good shot, but it is a completely different type of achievement to their massive 70s albums (which really cannot be topped in terms of size or impact).
This album is much more about the poetry, it has very clean and minimalist production. It's not an album a "new" or "unestablished" band could have made. It's very much a matured sound and I think it has an incredible amount of artistic integrity - this just doesn't feel like a effort to be commercially successful or pop-relevant at all. So yes, this doesn't make it a great album that sits on lists and gets on the radio, but it is special and it is unique, and frankly I'm really glad it exists.
In terms of the message, I think it's actually less literally and directly about "daddy" than it seems. I think it reflects a middle-aged melancholy about the current state of the world. The exuberance and sacrifice of WW2 (in which daddy died) has gone stale and is being forgotten and sullied by the threats and frivolousness of governments in the climate of 1983 Cold War. I think to Waters the greatest insult isn't that his father was killed in a great existentially-theatening war, but that we didn't and haven't done better and been better since then. To him the Cold War and Arms Race and the perpetual wars fought daily on earth are the biggest insult to the memory of those who ended the world war. What did they really die for, etc.

Black guys are usually cool if you ask them if they listen to rap. But ask a blonde girl where she likes to shop....and...yeah don't do that.

Basically every /classical/ thread desu
Can anyone help me find a solo Romantic piano piece that I heard awhile back? It starts off somewhat similar to Chopin's Prelude in E minor with repeating chords that descend chromatically (except in a major key) and gradually grows into this beautiful grandiose and virtuosic climax before dying back down again. Around 3-5 minutes in length. I tried combing through Chopin, Liszt, Brahms, and Poulenc but I very well could've missed it.
