"fuck it. yeah, ill put this up against ok computer. i'll put it up against born to run. these are the best guitar lines ever written." |
 |
Date: January 29th, 2023 2:13 AM Author: Rose Galvanic Circlehead ok computer was actually not even ok. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5279947&forum_id=2#45857036) |
|
Date: January 29th, 2023 2:15 AM Author: lime pit specifically, he said the "when you were young" guitar line he'd put up against born to run or "fucking anything"
the ok computer line was just bc everyone used to say radiohead was the best band. havent heard that take in a while, but at the time it made sense to plant that flag |
|
Date: January 29th, 2023 2:21 AM Author: Rose Galvanic Circlehead yeah i understand how it would be important to include in such a declaration at that time, just kinda baffled by ok computer's success in the first place. guess it was just the right time and place.
i suppose its lack of relevance today is proof it ultimately wasn't very good |

If they didn’t who did? And don’t out yourself as a retard by saying Limp Bizkit and don’t out yourself as a bitch by saying Coldplay.

Maroon 5 doesn't hold up well even vs. stuff that everyone knows you should hate like Bee Gees, Hall and Oates, etc. He has an adequate voice with range, but he is such a flat, insipid performer and writer.

Date: January 30th, 2023 4:30 AM Author: shimmering nowag Strokes and the entire late 90s/early aughts Brooklyn scene are definitionally not millennials. Millennials were watching TRL at this time. It was music by and for Gen X to bask in the peak of its cultural supremacy and the degree to which it succeeded as that was what spurred Boomers to orchestrate 9/11 so they could hijack the culture again and make it about their Vietnam baggage. Julian and all the rest of The Strokes are Gen X even the one born in Jan 81 bc their sound was the logical conclusion of literally 10k bands in US indie scenes that had been noodling around with the garage-y post-post punk schtick for the entire previous decade.

Date: January 30th, 2023 4:40 AM Author: shimmering nowag They were perfect bc all the Brooklyn hipsters were trust fund kids too. They represented the scene as accurately as anyone possibly could and were pretty deft at the irony part of the persona. It was late Gen X’s method to neutralize its members with the highest potential to become noxious shitlibs. Millennials lack this same function within their culture production nodes and it’s why they such. But beyond that they were/he was a legit good song writer(s). Bad Decisions is a great song and they just pop off with shit like that 20 years later like it’s nothing. It’s like that Onion article No One Knows I’m Wearing This Business Suit Ironically about the dude who ironically makes partner at Sherman & Sterling and moves to Connecticut with his ironic wife and ironic kids. They did that IRL except they were ironic hipster rock gods. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5279947&forum_id=2#45861367) |

Date: January 30th, 2023 2:51 AM Author: thriller navy gunner The alt-emo zoomers listen to alt rap like bladee and yung lean.
The “indie” band sort of music is popular with normie theater kid zoomer types who like stranger things and listen to Billie eilish, the neighborhood or the 1975 but it isn’t really indie it’s a corporatized version of it. And not in a cool way like the strokes being trustfund layabouts who decided to do music, more like an indie version of one direction where they pluck some random out and throw an aesthetic onto them. |
