Does MB have lame tastes?

~~MicShazam~~ · 09-14-2018, 12:46 PM

When it comes to music, MB'ers are a diverse bunch. I consider this a 100% cool thing, but what would the music hipsters of the internet think if they came upon MB while failing to click a Pitchfork link? Are we lame? I know you think I am, but what about in general?

Yes, this thread is retarded. Don't worry about it. That's called par for the course.

Music hipsters look down on Pitchfork.

Then who the **** even reads Pitchfork these days?

Trick question.

Our music taste for the most part is awesome.

Yet we are all still lame.

I spend almost no time thinking about how other peoples' tastes are good or bad. I just like people talking about music.

Literally all ground is covered among the MB crowd, so there's hardly any lame music that no one in here accepts. We've got acceptance of nu-metal, AOR, adult-contemporary, country, mumble rap, noise rock, jazz fusion, classic rock, mainstream pop musik... it really runs the gamut.

Does that just mean MB as a whole has no standards?

I don't see how a standard could be set, so I'm all for this mess. It's a bunch of non-conformist individuals whose musical tastes more or less match their personalities.

It probably means that about 80% of what is talked about in here is lame as **** if you're a hipster that cares about having/exhibiting refined taste.

MB as a whole? Don't lump me in with those dickheads.

I know, you're a special case.

Quick answer: Yes

Long Answer: Who cares?

Wannabe hipsters. You know, those people that listen to Tool and then talk about how much they love underground music.

Honestly, saying unironically that you have refined taste is the single lamest thing anyone could say.
