>>61485395
Hating dadrock is petty and bullshit.

Most of krautrock is unbearable

Not sure how unpopular but there is not enough good out of gothrock to justify its existence as a genre

there is no reason to actively hate kanye or his music

the beatles are shit

souvlaki is better than loveless.

LCD Soundsystem wasn't as special as people think they are

/mu/ dismisses an absolute fuck tonne of good music.

>>61485395

The bulk of any genre eventually becomes a worn out re-hash of the sound that came before it, but you don't have to like it all to enjoy ket bands like Cocteau Twins, Slowdive, MBV, and The Chameleons (who are kind of as boring as they are amazing, admittedly)

>>61485395

Punk started in '74.
Raw Power is a glam rock album.
Twisted Sister is fun.
Portraits of Past are the greatest emo band of all time
Jawbreaker is the greatest punk album
AnCo is awful
Sunbather co-opts black metal for hipster casuals
The first SPK album is the greatest industrial album of all time
Jobriath made two of the best albums of the 70s
Pet Sounds may be the best album ever made
Charley Patton and Leadbelly are the greatest bluesmen
Badly Drawn Boy is one of the best songwriters of the last 20 years
So is Fiona Apple
Justin Timberlake is cool
Deathcrush is the best thing Mayhem ever did, and it's basically a noise rock EP
Discharge had a negative effect on crust punk
Circle Jerks are more enjoyable than Black Flag
Black Fag is the greatest cover band ever

>>61485802
i agree with the 2013 comment. however the past couple of years have almost caused for me to completely ignore the release of new music

Metalcore is incredibly underrated as a genre. While the complaints are definately valid and there is a lot of absolute shit in the genre. Once you get past the "noun the verb" stuff there actually a bunch of really enjoyable shit.

Then again, it very much depends on where your sensibilities lie I suppose

The Afterman was absolutely fantastic and is easily Coheed and Cambria's best work.

>>61486104
all of these YES

>>61485802
deja entendu is like barely pop punk

Coheed and Cambria barely have any prog in them. Worst modern 'prog' band other than these djent bands like Periphery who insist they're actually progressive.

>>61486133
Nah senpai.

>>61485395
this is true though. I'll go a step further and say even the major shoegaze releases aren't that good. it's a very stale genre that just masks mediocre pop songs in layers of effects. It's interesting for a one time listen but afterwards I'd rather just listen to ambient music.

>>61485843
What sorta bands? I only really liked Botch and Converge who were labelled metalcore at the time (even though -core now is COMPLETELY different).

Modern bands like Parkway Drive are generic and boring as fuck.

Being patrician means training yourself to like shitty music.

Tago Mago > Ege Bamyasi > Future Days

>>61486171
In terms of mainstream I really like August Burns Red and Northlane. The Devil Wears Prada's last 2 EPs were fantastic too.

This could very well be a "different strokes for different folks" sorta thing. I realize I'm going to be the fast minority on this one. I'd take Post-hardcore over metalcore any day of the week though.

Pearl Jam was one of the best rock bands in the mid 90's and start 00's and everyone who dismisses them as boring buttrock has only listened to their "hits" from Ten. Vitalogy, No Code and Binaural are at least 8/10 albums.

Isis' Panopticon is one of the top 10 metal albums of all time.

Melvins are kinda boring.

>"you do what my people would grunt" is about how whites actually take the initiative to do things while blacks just get mad at them for doing said things.

These are wrong, objectively.

This is incredibly wrong, but at least it deserves to be debated.

I don't agree with what music you think /mu/ does and doesn't like, but I agree that /mu/ at large cares more about how their music affects their image and social standing.

Man, I wish you wouldn't say that kind of stuff. I get it, but I still wish you wouldn't. It doesn't bother me at all, and I welcome all disagreement, but what good can come of it, ya know? It's no harder to be nice, is it?

agree on the synthpop part

Here's one I never see here

Kings of Leon's albums prior to Only By the Night are some of the greatest contributions to rock music in the last 20 years. Even after they sold out they were still better than the Strokes ever were.

Henry Rollins has only done shit that's subjectively wrong, objectively he's not done anything abhorrent
His opinions may be questionable sometimes but he's no Greg Ginn at least

Well at least you picked up on those lyrics, but though he's being critical of modern black culture I don't think he is anywhere close to being against black people like you seem to be suggesting.

Great album though and with lyrics like that we could argue about the meanings and it wouldn't matter anyway, it's up to interpretation for better or worse. Death of the artist, etc.

>Henry Rollins has only done shit that's subjectively wrong
If you have to qualify someone's output like this, then you've already lost.
Have you read See a Grown Man Cry or Now Watch Him Die? He explicitly admits to crimes there, and whether they're justified or proven, he's a criminal by law and admission. I don't know what else you need to be convinced.

the marilyn manson trilogy is pretty neat.
