Why is Slint /mu/core?
it's talked about a good amount here
that's what /mu/core is
because it's literally tfw no gf: the album.

No, it's loneliness and anxiety: the album.
Nowhere is romance mentioned.

jason aldean is talked about a good amount on here. is his album considered /mu/core?
>>66253509
breadcrumb trail is about fucking someone in the ass for the first time
>>66253509
breadcrumb trail is fairly romantic
>>66253516
No. That is just a meme. No one talk about "music" of him.
No idea why it's recommended, it's boring.
Honestly everything but Loveless, Aeroplane and MBDTF are outdated /mu/core

Breadcrumb Trail has sex in it only as a result of the narrator separating himself from the crowd of people waiting in line for the rides; that taking risks and trying new things sometimes warrants good results. It's not explicitly anything about romance or tfw no gf. Washer has tones of it, and I've seen more than a few people talk about Good Morning, Captain in reference to an old girlfriend they had.

it is extremely popular on the 4chan music board! :)
It's a great album that serves as a great introduction to post-rock, math-rock, and the whole Louisville scene.

Of course they're not well known but good lord are they worth going into, some of the finest music to come out of the south/mid-west. And Slint is a great introduction to all of it.

I don't understand why people think, /mu/core is automatically bad in the first place or why it's even held against that album/artist. It just says that it is discussed a lot on this board, what's the fucking problem? The people who use, "/mu/core" as a legitimate criticism are likely hipster assholes, who are trying to be ironic on a 4chan board. It's like the apex of a pyramid of ironic hipster isn faggotry.
Any bands similar to Slint?

>he thinks a bunch of 16 year olds write lyrics that have some form of complexity.
It's just a story that came up in to the writer the day before they went into studio.
>>66254761
Rodan, Kolya and The For Carnation
>>66253873
lol in the documentary slint said they dedicated the songs to their parents as a joke. The lyrics were made up on the spot too.
Tweez was pretty great though

After all these years, I still don't understand the Post-Rock tag thrown on this album. For the closer, it makes sense, I suppose.
Regardless, it's a great album. Though I do feel alone in thinking the outro of "Good Morning, Captain" is somewhat ruined by the production. If the ending was more explosive than it already is, I'd agree with it being the perfect closer. I just think it needs some Loudness War treatment. I'm serious.
