My roommate just said that Marilyn Manson is more influential than The Beatles. Before I ask him to justify this, I'd like to hear your thoughts.
pic unrelated
How can he be influential if most people don't like him
They both suck.

Marilyn Manson has made a career off of ripping off the likes of Rozz Williams and Nik Fiend.
Your friend is a moron.

David Bowie turned marketing into the essence of his art. All great phenomena of popular music, from Elvis Presley to the Beatles, had been, first and foremost, marketing phenomena, however, Bowie turned that into an art of its own. With Bowie the science of marketing becomes art; art and marketing become one. There were intellectuals who had proclaimed this theory in rebellious terms. Bowie was, in many ways, the heir, no matter how perverted, of Andy Warhol's pop art and of the underground culture of the 1960s. He adopted some of the most blaspheme issues and turned them upside down to make them precisely what they had been designed to fight: a commodity. Bowie was a protagonist of his times, although a poor musician: to say that Bowie is a musician is like saying that Nero was a harp player (a fact that is technically true, but misleading). Bowie embodies the quintessence of artificial art, raises futulity to paradigm, focuses on the phenomenon rather than the content, makes irrelevant the relevant, and, thus, is the epitome of everything that went wrong with rock music. Each element of his art is the emblem of a true artistic movement however, the ensemble of those emblems constitutes no more than a puzzle, no matter how intriguing, of symbols, a roll of incoherent images projected against the wall at twice the speed, a dictionary of terms rather than a poem, and, in the best of hypotheses, a documentary of the cultural fads of his era. Reading the chronicles of his times, it is clear that what caused sensation was the show, not the music. The show that Bowie set up was undoubtedly in sync with the avantgarde, as it fused theater, mime, cinema, visual art, literature and music. However, Bowie merely recycled what had been going on for years in the British underground, in particular what had been popularized by the psychedelic bands of 1967. And he turned it into a commodity: whichever way you look at his oeuvre, this is the real merit of it.

>white girl see a nigga through medusa's lens
what did he mean by this?
She's wearing Versace sunglasses.
White women in western society and particularly in American society have always had a fraught relationship with black males. While white feminist will bemoan the objectifying male gaze, they themselves have a long history of a colonial, fetishistic gaze towards black men, viewing them as raw, animal, sexual beings. This gaze is even more problematic given that white women's sexual endeavors with black men have historically been used as precedent for the slaughter of black men in lynchings. This double standard has been upheld by white society's default perception of white female purity. We can see that this trend continues into the present day in the use of the word "c u c k" on 4chan to allude to the emasculation felt by white men in the presence of the sexualized black male and the subsequent violent reactions of some white men to this societal balance.
In Greek myth, Medusa, a gorgon, has a gaze that will petrify men and turn them to stone, which essentially means death. In this lyric, our narrator discusses the two sides of this paralysis - on the one hand, the white female gaze on black bodies is being received with pleasure by this man, who feels lustful towards the woman. On the other hand, this petrification also means death - he is a sitting duck not only for her seductions, but for the possible societal shaming and even in some extreme cases physical harm that might befall him for disrupting the vision of a "pure" white woman.
tl;dr: Black men in America can't fuck white women without some pasty roided redneck wanting to fucking hang them in a tree, so even if he wants to get it in and she wants it, there's layers to this shit.
He pops a boner everytime he sees a qt white girl.

had bruckner's first and fifth on a loop this past weekend. i'm starting to think his symphonies are my absolute favorite, i always find new nooks and crannies in these cathedrals of sound.
>>60459180
Bruckner is definitely one of the best symphonists of all time.
Is Cziffra a meme?

How is it even possible to be this oblivious to the musicality of music? He played it like a circus tune literally from the opening chord. Never mind bringing out the character that Chopin intended or bringing out whatever character the piece itself might want to be played in, JUST fucking terrible interpretation with no redeeming qualities past empty virtuosity. It's like he's just playing the notes with some rng rubato. Also, those Benny Hill octaves...Jesus Christ in heaven.
Compare to the real thing:

Did it with Low, fucking great. Pop A side with murky gloomy instrumental B Side. Try out different albums and see what works.
OP, please don't take this the wrong way, but are you retarded?

>mfw hearing this while peaking on my first acid trip
I was moaning with pleasure after hearing the first few seconds at the start. The song could've ended after the first 10 seconds and I would've thought "WOW this is the best thing I've ever heard in my life". Then the arpeggio at 0:12 starts and I'm lying there as the song keeps going, thinking to myself that I never want this to end ever.
Then Brain Damage and Eclipse. My god. I think it's the last 3 songs that give this album it's LSD reputation. They just completely send your trip to a whole new level.

Does anyone else think that the shooting at the Eagles of Death Metal concert was staged?
Listen to the "gunshots" in this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTEzQpZgIMg
They don't sound nearly loud enough to be bullets... more like fireworks. And the camera man barely budges, hell the entire crowd barely moves. Also where's the rest of the video? The guy doesn't even think to turn his camera off...?
Also, where the fuck are all the other videos/pictures of inside the venue. 1500 in the cell phone age and only one shitty video surfaces.... yeah, I believe that.
Discuss
It's a rock concert in a pretty big room, imagine the loudness of the sound to begin, and compare it to the loudness of the bullets, sounds pretty loud to me
>>60458125
it's a concert people were zoned in on the music and probably on drugs.
especially a death metal concert. at a rap concert people would have acted different
