Society 🤡 😔 👿

"Oh no the artistic value of this piece of art is not immediately obvious and is making me critically think about it, therefore it must not be art!" like dude

#

look beneath the surface of what's obvious my guy

#

@royal moss do you hate mumble rap because it "isnt real rap"

#

oh there it is

#

why do you hate rap

#

fair honestly

#

well yes it does

#

every piece of music has artistic merit

#

yes and opinions are meant to be criticised

#

yes it does

#

anything made by a human has artistic merit

#

there is intent and emotions behind everything a human creates

#

how do you know that?

royal moss
#

Okay. Museums are not gonna only be this in the future.

#

It doesnt really matter than

scarlet pawn
#

does creating art necessarily require mastery or skill?

royal moss
#

True

scarlet pawn
#

no it doesnt? why should artistic expression be limited only to those with the education/time necessary to master a skill?

#

and how do you know there weren't emotions/intentions behind these white paintings?

royal moss
#

Art is expression. With some forms of art, that can involve honing skills of that expression overtime. Art in general doesnt though.

scarlet pawn
#

my guy do you hear yourself right now

mellow stone
#

Mf definitely says that about pussy

royal moss
#

Well, a white painting is made to evoke questions on art and expression, its lack of expression is expression. Death grips on the other hand is just an artist you dont like. Not to mention, a genre you dont even personally like.

#

If you dont like high art involving white paintings stop caring about high art

#

At the end of the day a white painting isnt going to kill someone

#

how you gonna hear this song and not think it’s the most 🔥 thing ever

scarlet pawn
#

music can be both enjoyable and hurt your ears simultaneously

#

See: Endless, Nameless by Nirvana

royal moss
#

See most of I Care Because You Do by Aphex Twin

scarlet pawn
#

may asdf hates aphex twin

snow inlet
#

asdf doesn’t like good music

royal moss
#

So what I hear is you think music is when rock and nothing else

scarlet pawn
#

that is a completely arbitrary distinction

royal moss
#

vocal or instrumental sounds (or both) combined in such a way as to produce beauty of form, harmony, and expression of emotion. It has cords and beats. Its music

scarlet pawn
#

yea and we can call it out for being arbitrary

#
  1. Beauty is subjective
  2. How do you know there is no emotion in it
  3. there are very clearly instruments...
#

but then youre trying to use a subjective opinion to justify an objective statement

#

i.e. that death grips isnt music

#

if you dont like death grips that's fine!!!

#

but that doesnt mean that it isnt art!!!

royal moss
#

Something being not music is inherently objective.

#

oops

#

Sure. Thats true. The ideas behind language are real however

#

It is true to say pasta is a word, but pasta is a food. Pasta is the word we use to describe a real thing.

royal moss
#

Cool but thats not how a static definition works

#

A tree is a tree

#

its not very smart to call it a shrub because you dont like that tree

#

As I said. Its got beats and chords. Plenty of people think the earth is flat.

#

A little. Im not talking about death grips though. You said that about aphex twin.

#

As lifeless as Daft Punk are. Aphex Twin has some bangers but also more calming pieces

#

They aren't. Try Windowlicker, its steady and groovy. Call it boring, but boring doesnt mean its not music.

#

Alberto Balsalm is very danceable I might also add

#

Also ambient doesnt mean no instruments. Check out the strings on "4" or the piano on "Avril 14th"

#

All im saying is, even if you hate Aphex Twin or whatever it might be, just say that. Get off your high horse and accept that something is music even if you dont like it.

The King of Limbs is good

It's still 8th in the list but its GOOD

royal moss

real

true nova
#

the fragile is NIN's best album

serene token
#

The Bends is Radiohead's best work and Kid A isn't even close

pure oak
#

ive found myself not really being able to get into radioheads albums after okc

#

they were great when they were an actual rock band

#

idk

#

i should probably give ir another listen sometime

serene token
#

OkC has its moments but I can only like about half of its songs

#

Kid A is just
Not appealing at all

#

Hail To The Thief is ok
In Rainbows is nice

#

The Bends is just the most normal one and an easy one to get used to

#

I see so much praise for Kid A but the only song I somewhat like is The National Anthem

#

And ONLY the live version without the trumpets

#

And Idioteque is very strange but not the worst one

true nova
#

i mean motion picture soundtrack and how to disappear completely are works of art

glass sable
#

whar

#

Kid A has 0 bad songs

scarlet pawn

But I really need to listen to that one again

#

So please relax mr. obsessed with Radiohead

royal moss
#

I QUITE LITERALLY HATE RADIOHEAD BUT I WAS HOOKED ON FIRST LISTEN

#

so idk

#

Music is subjective after all

serene token
#

I prefer The Bends but HTTT isn't bad

royal moss
#

fair, the bends and pablo are top 4

#

actually maybe both top 3

#

but i gotta give Kid A a relisten

serene token
#

Still though I don't have anything good to say about the album version of Kid A
Live version of The National Anthem is good tho

#

Cause it sounds like Thom is speaking through a tin can
And it's just sounds and lyrics that don't make any sense
Like some misdirected science experiment led by an idiot

royal moss
#

Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors is mindboggling

#

And not in a good way

#

Fun Fact!

#

There are doors that open and doors that don't

#

Weird Fishes is just auhhhh

serene token
#

What about the arpeggio at the end though

#

I think its beautiful

#

The rest of the song is nice but the ending is beautiful

royal moss
#

No i meant that as in auhhh its so good

royal moss
#

Loveless is the most overrated album of all time

scarlet pawn
#

#

Creep by Radiohead is ass

#

Kid A by Radiohead is Amazing Apparently this Counts according to this Thread

#

The Strumming and how it allows the Atmosphere of Weird Fishes to Flourish the way it does, The Lyrics detailing Abandonment, Thom Yorke's Vocals.

#

Just for anyone who REALLY needs Weird Fishes' glory explained.

this was the worst one bro

#

"Why listen to this music when you could just listen to a completely different kind of music?"

viscid totem
#

I feel like I'd be a fucking hypocrite if I tried to take a shit on that take because this is sort of a way I criticize alot of attempts at Hip Hop.

"If you're listening to Hip Hop to Jam, EDM is right there."

Why should I endure the lyrics of Rolex Ayo & Teo when somn like Dimension by Creo is right around the corner and is also a jam.

viscid totem
#

"Why listen to FHD by Cole when TPAB by K-Dot is right there?"

... because it's good?

There's always gonna be better shit...

Nevermind > In Utero

snow inlet
#

i feel like nevermind gets more old faster then in utero

viscid totem
lyric crescent
#

honestly i'm not generally fond of the "heavy" style nirvana songs so i only like about half of in utero. so i agree that nevermind is superior

#

kurt cobain was better at writing pop than noise rock i think. and there wasnt anything wrong with that

viscid totem
#

For me that isn't exactly the issue Endless, Nameless is my 2nd favorite song from Nevermind I absolutely love it and it's p explicitly hard

I just didn't find any song that isn't Heart Shaped Box or All Apologies exactly remarkable

#

There are so many skips in In Utero, something I don't feel as much with concerning Nevermind

viscid totem
#

I listened to In Utero inside a car so idk

#

Maybe I need a relisten

THEY AINT BAD mind you

I love that song

Green is a good album, there’s some stinkers and it’s inherently super energetic, but there’s nothing objectively wrong with it that makes me hate it like how I hate red, seriously red is a stinker.
