Rather than pussy foot around it why don't we act as if we all already know that we think our music is better than everybody else's music and move on from there.

Those threads die because they're not interesting. Some guy starts an "Aren't the Shins Just Peachy Keen" thread, five people say variations of "Yeah, I love them, 'Random Song' is a really good song", and then nobody says anything about it ever again. The people who wanted to say something did, the people who didn't care didn't, and the simple fact of a band's existence isn't actually a conversation starter.
