Glad that's sorted!
Right then, my nomination for pretentiousness goes to a man I admire. David Byrne. |
I'm sorry, but thinking you're the best band in the world when you're just a d grade Beatles ripoff band, yeah, I'd call that pretentious.
|
Robert Fripp is annoying with his whole 'i hate prog rock' thing. He's not even the most important member of the band anymore. Hell, hasn't been for 27 years...
|
D-d-d-d-d-d-d-did you just diss Robert Fripp?
Thems fightin' words motherf*cker. :bringit: I do have to say though, did he actually say he hates prog? Well thats gotta suck for him, he created it. |
Ha ha. He said he hates the whole movement, and really tries to disassociate himself from it. Good luck with that...
|
If he wants to disassociate himself from it, he could start by, um, not making prog music anymore?
Or leave the band that basically made the genre. So yeah, that does seem pretentious to me. But if I had a problem with pretentious musicians, I wouldn't be listening to prog. As for you saying hes not the most important member of KC anymore, well, I'm not saying you're wrong, but I don't think there is either a most or least important member of King Crimson, the band has always been a very tight ensemble, especially during the Fripp-Belew-Levin-Bruford era. |
I think Belew's defined their sound for almost 30 years. Not saying everyone doesn't contribute, but Belew voice, and unique guitar tone are always at the forefront.

There's nothing pretentious about being a mouthy northerner. And to take a claim like that at face value, is a misunderstanding of a northern English cultural trait. |
U2 doesn't play music. They emit aural garbage.
