Music discussion thread

[Flying V]

There might be another thread like this but tbh I cba to find it. Basically music discussion is spilling out into other threads and while you can never get too much music it's nice to have one set place to call everyone elses tastes utter rubbish. I was thinking about genre specific threads but I doubt that would get as much attention and you know the more general it is the better. Sure we have a listening thread but no one bothers their arses to use that as a discussion place like they should so yeah.

I'd like to start by saying that obscure prog is like the biggest goldmine in great music ever. Stuff like Comus and (less obscure) Wishbone Ash are some of the greatest bands ever and yet so underappreciated.

Won't this thread be fun.

It will, Fjermestad's opinions on music are occasionally spot on but most of the time are hilarious thanks to how amazingly failridden they are. So it will be entertaining at least.

Coming from the man who enjoys lostprophets I don't think you have the right to say anything tbh.

 

[Majin]

bull****s, was part of a discussion about the context of music and you know it.

 

[Flying V]

I know what I want to know and I have the right to use it against you, any liking of lostprophets is not allowed tbh, regardless of context.

I think if you check your chatlogs you'll find that my exact words were "I still hated it but it made sense in this context" so gagfc. either way you fap to that horrid swedish electro song about IRC chatbots and you actually like it so you can't say much either

EG KJENNE EN BOT
HUN HETER ANNA, ANNA HETTER HUN

Nothing wrong with Boten Anna

What I do concede however is my liking of Marit Larsen's "Under the Surface" due to it being played so ****ing much when I was working in the chemical factory.

Close this thread, it will create nothing but conflict.

There are already threads for Favourite Song of the Week, What Song are You Listening To, Latest Album You've Bought and Concert Calendar floating around OT. Will leave this open though.

Got the Best of Joy Division for free today (Y).

I think we can all agree, they were the best band to exist.

DWTA&F.

Strongly.

 

[Josh]

Frusciante.

That is all.

Certainly one of the best bands, quality over quantity definitely, however they are dwarfed by other bands who while not as consitent have delivered a lot better material.

As hard as it is to believe, I've never cared much for the music of Queen, you know. May've mentioned this before, can't remember.

 

[Smudge]

Obscure prog is utter rubbish. There, I said it.

Beggars belief that you had an avatar of Freddie Mercury for quite sometime though...

 

[Son Of Coco]

It's Swedish.

That's always a plus.

What is obscure prog? I get lost in the sheer volume of names for different types of music.
