Yeah, it's unfortunate. I don't know which specific mod it was who neutered my account, but a different mod is telling me that too many of my reviews are 'one line' or 'jokey', so I need to fix those before I can get my privileges restored

Tons of users also post one-line reviews of singles, though, so I'm pretty sure they're being particularly harsh with me because someone doesn't like my AMSP review

Overall lesson to be gained from this, folks - don't post dissenting opinions unless all of your other reviews are multiple paragraphs and very serious in content, or you will get fucked by the mod team (and I'm even a subscriber, they apparently don't care that I give their site money for no real reason)

I get that your own personal life and emotions can alter how you view an album, but this review does everything you shouldn't do when reviewing an album. Yes, albums do speak to people on personal emotional levels, but you need to explain how the album achieves this, not how you achieved it. I swear this guy saw the Pitchfork Kid A review and thought that they were too subtle.

What the fuck is that
>>
>>64773036
i KNEW you'd be one of those classical elitists, but i'm just going to dismiss this assumption in order to reply to you

i am interested in jazz, but i'm not a huge fan of it, but there are a lot of albums which i've listened to before i had RYM and i havn't had the time (or want) to go back and rate them, and i don't think it's fair to rate them based on what i thought about them half a decade ago

i like a lot of jazz inspired music, such as squarepusher, used to listen to a lot of improvisational jazz-rock and prog like gong or zappa and the only modern stuff i really listen to is dark jazz (which i don't consider true jazz because it's got such a lack of improvisation at times)

but all of this is besides the point. I think Lanquidity is an album which i wouldn't change a single thing about, and that's what i constitute as being a 5/5 on RYM

also you really should resort to something other than is there's somebody who you don't agree with just having a short browse through their 5 star albums and going HURRRRR THIS GUY RATED THIS 5 STARS SEE WHAT I MEAN????? because it's meaningless and just a sign of a pretentious asshat

you're more than welcome to enjoy your classical violin concertos and other classical stuff but don't think that you "are better suited to review" an album because you have either listened to more music or have been trained classically.

nobody's opinion is worth more or less than others

only 50s stuff i've gone through is mingus, herbie, davis and brubeck stuff but the times when i want to listen to classic jazz are few and far between, i've been exploring the niches of dub and experimental techno for the past 2 years and i don't know how long i'll continue trying to find every corner of these niches or how long before i want to move onto another genre or two as a majority of what i listen to
>>
>>64773159
1. Do you know what pretentious means? Pretentious means lacking knowledge on a subject, but acting as if you do have that knowledge. You, and people similar, are being pretentious by claiming you appreciate and understand Jazz when in fact it's just to look better on a social website. For me, classical music is a strong passion - it's my damn job after all! - and not pretension.
2. No, not everyone's opinion is equal. Some people don't know music theory. Some people can't play an instrument. MANY people don't know music history past 1900. That last point is especially important because to have an idea for what music is "new" and virtuous you MUST know what came before: part of the reason I enjoyed TAW unlike other people is that I can see the influence of Perotin and Monteverdi in the music.

If you just removed that Sun Ra rating I really wouldn't care but now I realize you're just as bad as Montie.
>>
ITT: people defending their "unique" tastes
>>
>>64773284
>No, not everyone's opinion is equal

this is said by the kind of people that believe opinions are a competition. which is to say, pretentious failures of human beings.

stop shitposting, boldfedora
>>
>>64773359
No, it's said by people who love a subject and actually study it.
>>
>>64773284
i'm not claiming i know huge amounts of jazz but you don't have to be an expert in a field in order to enjoy something! music isn't my job and you shouldn't expect everybody to enjoy music on exactly the same terms that you do - if it's your job you should know this

everybody's opinion IS equal
it doesn't matter whether you know music theory or not, people are going to enjoy music on different levels. sure it's true it might be advantageous to know about complex scales and how they resolve themselves throughout a track or the algorithms involved in a complex generative musical piece but that DOES NOT change the amount of enjoyment that somebody gets from music, just the understanding

the defitinition of pretentious is: "attempting to impress by affecting greater importance or merit than is actually possessed" and right now you're being the most pretentious person here by saying that peoples knowledge of music is more important than the music itself

>the reason I enjoyed TAW unlike other people
you're really suggesting that you enjoy things in a different way to other people

holy shit, special snowflake better grease up your fedora because you're tipping at an extremely intense speed
>>
>>64773284
this nigga. yeeeeaa buddayyy
>>
>>64773377
so to you loving a subject is all about getting to feel superior to others? doesn't that seem contradictory to you at all?

opinions aren't things you give value and weight to for comparative purposes. the only people who believe that are people who derive social status from their opinions, which is to say, pretentious posers.
>>
>>64773380
You say all of this but I distinctly remember that the first time I appreciated serial music was when the row stuctures were explained inside of a Schoenberg score. Sometimes yes that knowledge does fundamentally change your gut reaction of music.

What do you think of Montie?
>>
>>64773407
Is science about feeling superior to others. Of course not: but when somebody starts trying to contest your research you're going to fight back.
>>
>>64773452
no one is "contesting your research" though, you're just being tremendously insecure and somehow taking anyone disagreeing with you as a personal attack. very immature thing to do.

and just a little tidbit from an adult: in the world of science, when someone contests your research you don't "fight back," you respectfully argue your point. you'll understand when you're older
>>
>>64773428
knowledge such as this changes what you look for in the music, i don't know what the row structures are (and frankly, i don't care) but i imagine if i knew what they were i would appreciate how they were used, this would make me respect the artist and the piece more but would i enjoy it more or less? no way, i would just respect it more. it's like speaking the english language - do you enjoy speaking a word more because you understand where it comes from? you have KNOWLEDGE of something but it doesn't change your enjoyment

knowledge =/= enjoyment of something
knowledge is just knowedge

does somebody who has no knowledge of playing guitar like the sounds a guitar makes less than the one who plays it?
the answer is NO
they might not know what song the person is playing or what the chord progression is but that doesn't impact their enjoyment of the music - they will enjoy it all the same

i don't know who montie is because i'm not a poser who cares about "rym personalities" or my "internet credibility"

>>64773452
why are you taking my criticism of music as a personal attack? how insecure are you?

how about this
i don't know any classical theory
i don't plan to learn classical theory
and yet i've given lanquidity a 5/5
so despite all of this I ENJOY IT MORE THAN YOU
>>
>>64773488
>calling someone pretentious isn't a personal attack

it doesn't matter whether somebody has an iq of 50 or is the smartest person in the world

holy kek what a thread. boldfaure is a joke, a very funny one at that
>>
>>64774697
If you don't know much about music I see why you'd think that.
>>
>>64774724
laughing at autism is completely unrelated to music my friend
>>
>>64774618
i'm burninate and have not been the only person who you've been discussing with in this thread, as i assumed you know

let me reiterate what i've said to you, things which are irrefutable because they are objective
- knowledge does not correlate to enjoyment, knowledge is just knowledge
- people who have more knowledge of a subject do not enjoy it more, examples: somebody playing guitar for the first time does not enjoy it more than somebody who is a virtuoso. the virtuoso will be playing more difficult things for sure and will make music which is more technically sufficient, but enjoyment is subjective, so this does not make him better, because the beginner could make something which sounds better to him
- appreciation is not the same as enjoyment. people appreciate things because they have prior knowledge, appreciation is a form of respect

and so through all of this nonsense, i ask you again, why does my 5 stars rating of Sun Ra's Lanquidity, an exceptional album, annoy you so much, considering i have not rated any other jazz albums 5 stars and i accept that i am not an expert in jazz? Music is entirely subjective so i can have any opinion i like because my opinion depends on my personal enjoyment

now if you'd be so good as to admit that you're wrong in thinking you're better than most other people here because you've had classical music training or some other similar nonsense we can finish this thread and start posting memes or something. because the way you talk suggests that you think you're far above all others, especially how you're telling everybody else to "grow up" when it's really you who is acting like a child - you think your opinion is in some way inherently better than the opinions of other people

if you didn't read this post i'd like to reiterate again: knowledge has no effect on enjoyment, and rating music is a rating of enjoyment, not what you know about the album. you're rating the music itself, not the skills of the artist
>>
lmao this thread
Boldfaure is the /mu/ equivalent of LimedIBagels
>>
>>64774753
you replied to the wrong post there fella, I hate boldfaure's meme schtick more than anyone ITT
>>
>>64774797
oops, i don't know who is who, but as you can see, that's addressed to him
>>
boldfaure have you been diagnosed with autism? this is a serious question
>>
>>64774753
I do not think I'm better than everyone here. I think with certain subjects I have a better grasp than other people, so when I see them trying to pretend to grasp said subjects with limited knowledge I call them out. It's a common illness on RYM, pretension.

Go on my profile and you see on the one jazz list I made (I have one for 2016 but maybe I should copy the same description over) I said "I'm not a jazz buff." I take pride in what I've accomplished, and freely acknowledge what I don't.

When I see others that don't care about that and want to look like experts in everything I will call them out.
>>
>>64774864
why do you keep assuming people want to look like experts, especially when they keep stressing and repeating they're not?
>>
RYM mods are autistic, and so is sharifi
>>
>>64774864
no one is pretending like they're an authority on jazz or classical, except for you. people use rym to organize their listening history and find new music recommendations. why do you have to be such an autistic bitch about that? people can rate whatever they damn well please
>>
>>64774899
Why would they put music on their profile they don't want to be identified with?
>>
>>64774864
>I do not think I'm better than everyone here
> I think with certain subjects I have a better grasp than other people

do you not see the contradiction here? by saying you think you have a better grasp of something, you're saying you're more able to do something than other people, which is saying you're better at doing something than others

who cares if somebody doesn't have a lot of knowledge about a subject and reviews something? like i said, music is entirely subjective, so somebody who has never heard any classical music before could listen to one of the most complex classical pieces ever and make a review and it'd still be valid - they wouldn't have the knowledge to fully appreciate the music but they're fully entitled to any opinion that they have

i'm not being rude when i say that i don't care about how much jazz that you've listened to because this is entirely besides the point. saying that you've reviewed albums and made lists is not an accomplishment at all, you're sharing your opinions which is not applying any talent at all

nobody here is saying that they're an expert here, you've been continuously saying that you know more about about certain types of music and so you're better equipped to review them but this is not true at all because, once again, music is entirely subjective
>>
>>64774949
this, stop bickering already autists
>>
>>64774949
So then why do they get offended when I call them out as casual listeners? Most people I've talked to seem to think they are experts in the limited music they've heard.
>>
>>64774953
what the hell does that even mean? people listen to music and assign a numerical value to how much they liked it. it has jack shit to do with "being identified" whatever that even means. why are you so obsessed with image?
>>
The only rym user whose reviews are worth reading is grampus.
>>
>>64774981
because you saying somebody is a "casual listener" is you just dismissing their opinion because they have less knowledge of the subject than you - this is why people get angry because you're treating them like idiots
>>
>>64774994
Hello Grampus.
>>
>>64774994
by all means, if you want to hear him bitching about his wife dumping him and leaving him with all her "disco" records
>>
>>64774981
why do you have to "call them out" in the first place? you're an ego-obsessed autist of the highest degree
>>
>>64774959
Just because I know more about Darmstadt than LS or DP doesn't mean I'm better.
The question isn't what you know, it's how you portray yourself.
If a person is casually rating jazz/classical and being friendly and not claiming pretension I have no quarrel.
If someone insults me and claims I don't know what I'm talking about while only being a casual listener, I will call them out.
What is hard to understand
>>
>>64775040
except everytime you've called out someone, it was unprovoked
>>
>>64775032
Because they either insult me or do a disservice to classical music.
>>
>>64775040
>If someone insults me and claims I don't know what I'm talking about

except no one does that, it's literally all you taking things personally to degrees I didn't even know were possible, jesus get it through you head already
>>
>>64774994
I really like that guy.
>>
>>64775060
Not with burninate that's sure as fuck.
>>
>>64775061
lmao a disservice by assigning a numerical score on rym? get off your fucking high horse, autismo
>>
>>64775040
what does this have to do with anything?

nobody cares about how much you know, why are you so obsessed about this?

i'm not saying you don't know what you're talking about, i'm saying that you fundamentally don't understand how enjoyment of music works

>>64775061
classical music is not some holy grail that deserves to be defended lol

>>64775077
what have i ever done to you except saying that you're stuck up your own ass and calling you a failure? you're offended so easily and take everything so seriously, when in actuality this is just music so it doesn't matter at all
>>
>>64775061
you're doing a disservice to classical music by being a corrosive douche while strongly identifying yourself with it

anyone who is insulting you did so because your attitude is toxic. it has NOTHING to do with music at all. re-evaluate the way you interact with others, PLEASE
>>
>>64775091
>what have i ever done to you except saying that you're stuck up your own ass and calling you a failure?
Rest my case.
If you bring bantz I'll banter back.
>>
The mods unpublish reviews for the stupidest reasons and when people make reviews that actually break the rules, they stay there and get loads of bookmarks. The "clever" one-line reviews joking about the album's title, people trying to be funny by telling a shitty story with almost no relation to the actual music in the album and stuff like that is always there and never gets unpublished.
>>
reminder that while boldfaure may be a cunt, nobody will ever be more detestable than xus
>>
>>64774953
You can't be fucking serious. How the fuck is rating something highly the same thing as wanting to be identified with it? I have three pages of prog rock rated (a few even at 4.0 or 4.5) and I don't even give a shit about the genre, I just rate it so I can remember what I've heard from it and which albums I liked the most. So people should only ever rate music highly from the genres they're ~~experts~~ on?
>>
>>64775120
>i-it was banter all along gaize!... gaize?

"no"
>>
>>64775140

>>
>>64775185
you didn't "offer" anything, you said you weren't gonna reply, then continued replying. you're fucking delusional m8
>>
>>64775120
you've been doing a pretty bad case of bringing the banter back, not only have you been proved wrong multiple times in almost every way imaginable by everybody in this thread you havn't made a single joke and instead have just got butthurt about your precious classical music and jazz

i actually feel sorry for you and wonder if you actually have any friends, because if you are as stuck up about anything else than you are about music then you'd be an insufferable person to do around who would refuse to let somebody share their opinion about food because

"i have tried more foods, my taste buds are more experienced, your can't say you enjoy things as much as i do because i have more knowledge, eat shit faggots"
>>
>>64775149
Either rate music only what you're an expert in

Or rate anything, but don't call out people and pretend like you know what you're talking about

this thread has wasted so much time jesus christ
>>
>>64775215
>not only have you been proved wrong multiple times in almost every way imaginable by everybody in this thread
For bringing up psychology earlier you sure don't know confirmation bias!

Hi
>>
>>64775578
i think it's funny how you're trying to negotiate with my directly when i said i don't care about my online persona

you still say you're going to insult people who have less knowledge than you, you're still concerned by my rating of albums (and others too) and you still take music far too seriously

i'm humbled about how this is a semi apology but you're still acting as if you're the classical music police, when in reality, people can say or rate whatever they want about music and trying to verbally beat them down makes you the asshole

also what's with telling everybody to grow up and calling them a child in the comment boxes?

I am just searching the specific % they represent

As some example, some people say 80% of all music sucks, others say 95% of music sucks .
