I suppose that's true. I will try to take that into account going forward.

But my difficulties with progressive rock run many years back. Complex compositions, amazing musicianship, intellectually challenging compositions, perhaps even a dash of originality: Sounds good, but I'm usually not feeling the power of the music at that deep level.

There's still a million groups I've never really delved into, so...

So how are you any better than Mic, or me, or anyone else who doesn't give the music you think is important the chance you believe it deserves? Pot/kettle and all that.

That's because I don't take the club too seriously. Do you have any other examples?

That's when you know you've really arrived.

You don't? And yet you gave me unbelievable **** about a few of your albums because I didn't bow down and suck your dick. As for examples? Choose any band or artist I'm into, any one at all will do. Now tell me what you think about my being into that artist. You're always the same. My taste sucks, yours rules. Yes you can sig that if it makes you feel better.

That's clearly not you. You've always gone to great lengths to inform us that you are THE Batlord. That's just about A Batlord. Sorry. Nice try.

Check out the thread that you're referring to and you'll see that I actually tried to get your perspective on the record to better understand it instead of just shouting "NO IDONLIKEIT". That's the difference. I'm not so self-absorbed to think that I couldn't miss something about an album like you are whenever I try to provide my perspective on a record to you. Now go take your victim complex and shove it.

Tbf Frown, you have a tendency to pounce on people. The classical music thing for instance. Literally nobody else was on your side and yet you continued to make a point that nobody understood. So yeah, you tend to be vicious when you wanna be. You just hate it when it's thrown back.

I will call out stupid points no matter how unpopular that is. I'd appreciate that to be reciprocated tbh, nobody wants to be an idiot.
