How about...

...instead of moaning about shite music/scensters/the NME etc, we made our own music we like/listened to good music/read DIS and decent publications more?

Nah fuck that. actually, that'd be boring.

I haven't really got a point to make here btw...

  • Re: How about...

    Actually, I was just thinking about how it isn't actually shit music that I dislike, it's mediocre music. There's a kind of acceptance you have with shit. It's shit, no one thinks it's anything else, so there's not much argument to be had. It's music which is completely bland/pointless/derivative and which by all means shouldn't polarise opinions which does polarise opions. Because it has credibility. Take Keane as an easy example. None of their music is particularly offensive, it's perfectly ok, if pretty dull and pointless. It just really really annoys me that people like it. What annoys me isn't the music so much, but the fans. It comes from a good place though, this hatred of everyone. I want them to like different/interesting stuff, even if I don't like it myself musically.


    As I was saying, it's because it has "indie" credibility that I dislike this medicority more than shite like.......Lemar. More credibility than this rant anyway...

    I think I lost myself after the first two sentances. It's late.
    I'm off to watch the Pixies live thingy on VH2.

      I don't like the way you can't have spaces in your name on this board either.
