Not as zzzzzzzzzz as your stock "edgy punk" takes that were already getting old decades ago, I'm sorry to say I'm not all that impressed by them.

Now if you say it with a funny Cockney accent we can talk.

Achilles Last Stand is LZ best song, Beatles are ****, so are Radiohead.

Basic bitch and proud of it.

Good god these takes are ****ing boring.

Santana secretly knows untold modes and scales, he just sticks to the one to mess with us.

I'm sort of getting into Radiohead for the first time since OK Computer. Nude, Jigsaw falling into place. I've seen some basement videos (is it a series). They're certainly not my favorite band ever, but why do you think they're ****?

Hot takes are boring in general, it's all Twitter is now, all you gotta do is say the most wrong sh*t you can think of, sit back and watch those retweets skyrocket.

I can never fault an artist for finding one trick they're incredibly good at and clinging onto it for dear life.

Does that apply to U2, Green Day, and the RHCP?

Sure, I can think of many artists it applies to and I fail to see the problem with it. If you want variation then listen to more than one artist, it's not that hard.

Some artists have one highly specialized skill and it's basically all they know, like sushi chefs who go through years of intense training and they never had time to learn how to cook anything else.

I don't know that I disagree, but I was testing your position I guess.

The thing I don't get is the "They should have stopped making music after [ALBUM]." That one gets me because it doesn't change the past, so who cares. Mind you I have different levels of tolerance. Green Day is getting worse, Weezer is hit or miss, and Metallica - who had Bob Dylan in the 80s-levels of bad from 2000-2010 - are off the ropes with the last two albums being really solid.
