ITT: Pop albums better than anything that the Beach Boys or the Beatles ever did

>friend tells me to listen to this because it's "better than Smile"
>it's just a bunch of fucking stupid wacky broadway showtunes
Extremely overrated album. I don't get the appeal, and I wanted to like it.
Genres.
I'm retagging all of my music and I've realized that the genre tag is often too generic or too specific to really make it useful as a sorting tool.
Do you use genres to sort music? If so, what genres do you use and how do you determine if an artist fits in a certain genre?
gorenoise
i determine if its gorenoise by how much it sounds like gorenoise
>>63567348
I use genres, not style or sub-genre
>WUT???
Style:metal
Genre: Doom metal
Sub-genre: Funeral Doom metal
Anyway I used to tag by sub-genre, and when I didnt knew (or when the genre didnt had one) by genre, by style if I didnt knew the genre....
then I decided to simplify and tag it by genre, after all it what the id3 tag ask

What you do with hardcore?
Just bought this today with it being their only album I hadn't listened to yet and I gotta say I really don't get why everyone thinks its their worst
Its fucking solid and lives up to my DG expectations, is it because its so chaotic? If so yall are gonna hate Botomless Pit
Please explain
>>63567256
JD is shit apart from On GP and Centuries of Damn.
Literally no one thinks it's their worst
Lots of people just hate the Niggas On The Moon half
>>63567302
But the niggas on the moon half is the best half
Is prog the nerdiest genre?
no
that would be chiptune, or polka, or new age
It's in the top 3 along with Metal and Chiptune / Video Game soundtracks
>>63567265
ska or pop punk
Why is Franz Ferdinand so underrated, /mu/?
This is a great song and a brilliant video. Films that have made millions don't have half the artistic merit of this.

>>63567075
they aren't underrated at all
that song was top of the charts when it came out
you'd know how big they used to be if you weren't either underage or american
>>63567075
>underrated
these words have no meaning. they were the critics darlings for years. but i guess at some point they just weren't all that. lots of flash, few good songs.
I love em to death.
Franz Ferdinand>The Strokes

also I missed you guys. looks like things have degraded heavily in my absence.
pls respond
Anyone listen to this? I'm currently two tracks in, it's kind of reminescent to his last album, especially in the sense of the R&B style vocal guests. I wish it was instrumental instead, but I guess there's not much I can do there. Anyone else listen to this, care about it? I remember SBTRKT used to be talked about here fairly often, so I was surprised not to see a thread about this.
I was not aware of this wtf, listening now brb
>>63567027
On the last track now (OP here). Wasn't bad, wasn't really impressive either. I find SBTRKT's best songs are the ones without guests, but he seems to feel the opposite way. It's not really an original style of music, but his instrumentals are much more enjoyable to me than listening to a d-list PBR&B singer over them. If he had someone like Frank Ocean, Weeknd, or Miguel do vocals, hell even Partynextdoor, it would make the vocal features much more interesting. Otherwise, I wish he kept it...

can't even listen to this unless it's on good speakers, can't decide if that makes it good or not.
Anything better than the ATH Meme50s? I have a budget of $250.
Don't get the m50s they're uncomfortable as hell and have zero soundstage, I just got the DT770s and they absolutely kick their arse in terms of sound and comfort, plus they're actually cheaper, at least in the UK
>Anything better than the ATH Meme50s
yes.
>>63567104
I was on board with getting the DT 770s until I realized I probably would need an amp for 250 ohms, and I like to carry my headphones around with me and use them out of my house.
If I get the 32 ohm version, will the sound quality suffer?

>tfw sad cause my meme genre is dead :c
>>63567046
it will never die as long as talented lads are working behind the scenes to make the next big thing
Merriweather Post-Nightcore proves that this can generate buzz
Yo i am tired of the music i normally listen to.
How do i get into Vaporware?
>>63566922
Try Vaportrap or Future Funk artists.
Blank Banshee and Saint pepsi are good places to sample those genres since they are pretty accessible.
Here's an essentials chart for ya when you're ready.
>>63568353
old trash chart with tons of ambient shit and generic simple loops
>>63568475
I don't think I have that chart. Do you have the updated one?
Here's the thing about 2D. The man has some serious pipes. He has a 4 octave range and he excells in any octave. He writes brilliant songs. And his stage presence is only matched by Adolf Hitler. Seriously, watch them play Feel Good Inc at Glastonbury and then watch a video of the Nuremburg rallies. We had better thank our lucky stars 2D didn't go into politics or he would have taken over the world. But Gorillaz as a whole has a brilliant dynamic. It isn't just the 2D backup band. They all made huge creative contributions to what made Gorillaz what it is. Yes,...

GORILLAZ PHASE FOUR WHEN
2Ds good but he is no Freddie Mercury
Here's the thing about Freddie. The man had some serious pipes. He had a 4 octave range and he excelled in any octave. He wrote brilliant songs. And his stage presence was only matched by Adolf Hitler. Seriously, watch them play Radio Gaga at Live Aid and then watch a video of the Nuremburg rallies. We had better thank our lucky stars Freddie didn't go into politics or he would have taken over the world. But Queen as a whole had a brilliant dynamic. It wasn't just the Freddie Mercury backup band. They all made huge creative...

The Fall
Meme band or legit? How is his wife (girl in back) so cute????
>>63566911
You made this thread yesterday m8
Everyone gave you recs for listening then
Now fuck right off
Early Fall is GOAT. After 1980, it's strictly for fans only.
>How is his wife (girl in back) so cute????
Smith's ability to pick up quality women despite being a drunk mean-spirited goblin has always baffled me. I guess it's down to his intelligence and 'tude.
His wife(and bandmate) in the 80s was much cuter though.

Also, as stated in the last thread, this is the greatest boxset of all time.
> 90s Hip-hop album
> Actually includes a punk song
How is he so based ?
>>63566878
He isn't.
MCA looks weird as fuck in that pic OP.
>>63566950
