Is saying the beatles are overrated the most patheticly rehashed attempt at being edgy/a contrarian?
liking the beatles is post-contrarian
They're still great songwriters.
Overrated has more to do with the fans than with the music itself.

No, it's a correct statement if you're an intelligent adult.
They're also great, BTW

We might mention it was recorded by a murderer and had way too much filler.

The fact that so many books still name the Beatles as "the greatest or most significant or most influential" rock band ever only tells you how far rock music still is from becoming a serious art. Jazz critics have long recognized that the greatest jazz musicians of all times are Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Classical critics rank the highly controversial Beethoven over classical musicians who were highly popular in courts around Europe. Rock critics are still blinded by commercial success. The Beatles sold more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore they must have been the greatest. Jazz critics grow up listening to a lot of jazz music of the past, classical critics grow up listening to a lot of classical music of the past. Rock critics are often totally ignorant of the rock music of the past, they barely know the best sellers. No wonder they will think that the Beatles did anything worthy of being saved.

end this meme please

but it does
people under 18 usually cant form their own opinions so they just bandwagon hop or copy generic contranian opinions. see: /v/
If you like the Beatles by now you're a contrarian, plebeian and patrician at the same time. Jesus.
>>63109725
i dont know anymore, i feel like if you grew up with the beatles you tend to appreciate them more and theres nothing wrong with that.
im only 21 and i listened to all the albums that people say are amazing and i only like 1 or 2 songs on each one.
its just people trying to fit in/age difference/ and taste

so, people have high regard for the beatles so i can't enjoy their music without being immature?
