thank you friend, downloading now

>>61605669

It encourages unwarranted self-importance, all the top rated releases are shit, every page takes forever to load and the entire userbase is just total cancer. We'd all be better off without it, instead just using discogs for music cataloging. We don't need no ratings or reviews either, anyone can instantly download or check out on Youtube what they want to listen to.

this. custom charts (esp esoteric charts!) are fucking goldmines.

>>61605809

>What is unwarranted self-importance?

People thinking their opinions are worth reading; ie anyone who writes reviews, most of which tell little about the music or try so hard to be funny, it's honestly pathetic.

>The subgenre charts are generally good.

Link me to one that isn't overly super-niche and isn't full of the most entry-level examples of the subgenre.

>>61605896
>People thinking their opinions are worth reading
Sometimes people do have opinions worth reading due to their knowledge regarding the music.
>Link me to one that isn't overly super-niche and isn't full of the most entry-level examples of the subgenre.
So wait, if it's a well known release it can't be the best? That's a rather immature view.
Obviously OKC is not the best Rock release, but saying Karajan's Beethoven set or Kind of Blue aren't pillars of their genre is an immature thing to say.

>>61605944
dude im not mad, im just confused. does rym really anger you so much that you have to make random posts attacking it?

Discogs is pretty bad for looking up music. Might be a bit harder to find stuff on RYM, because of how strict they are with source, but at least it's better organized.
The reviews I've seen have been painful to read and fit your description pretty well. I just ignore them.
I'm pretty new to the site, but I'm enjoying rating stuff and keeping track of what I like.
Here's my profile by the way
https://rateyourmusic.com/~toshimaru

>>61605954

>Sometimes people do have opinions worth reading due to their knowledge regarding the music.

And you'll find those people on a professional review site, not on RYM.

>So wait, if it's a well known release it can't be the best? That's a rather immature view.

Look at it this way, if the top rated releases are always easily accessible and entry level albums, then doesn't that mean that people without much experience in a genre are doing the rating? If so, why would I take those charts seriously?

>Obviously OKC is not the best Rock release

There you go, and I'm sure the top rated techno or black metal or whatever you listen to isn't truly the best example of the genre.

>but saying Karajan's Beethoven set or Kind of Blue aren't pillars of their genre is an immature thing to say.

I only listen to popular music so I can't comment on that.

It's going to be interesting decades later when we view the catalogues of people like Avishai Cohen, Vijay Iyer, and Tim Berne with the reverence of masters past.
>>61606098

Not everyone wants to review things for a living. In fact that'd be a dull existence.
>I only listen to popular music so I can't comment on that.
So what you're saying is you have a very immature appreciation of music?

Depends. I switch around a lot, but it's been a lot of dark, milky oolong recently.

>>61606169
>by users of the site
that's a kind of a stupid rule, especially since nobody's mentioned it until now

>>61606208
can't it be assumed that most of the people in this thread are rym users?

>>61606092

I disagree, Discogs is a lot more thorough with releases and compilations and what artists performed or appeared where. At least from what I've seen. RYM on the other hand has tons of missing releases, badly tagged releases or artists that have random tags added to differentiate them from similarly named artists, it's just a total shitshow in general.

>>61606133

>Not everyone wants to review things for a living. In fact that'd be a dull existence.

They can review all they want but their reviews are always going to be worthless.

>So what you're saying is you have a very immature appreciation of music?

Not listening to Jazz/Classical =/= being immature.

You can't claim to care about music and then only listen to the most commercial and vapid form of it.

>>61606271

Do you think I mean popular music as in solely top 40 pop/rock?

>>61606231
i think anybody should be able to discuss though, postively or negatively

>>61606288
Maybe you can claim to be a hobbyist but not someone who really, truly invests themselves with music.

>>61606260

Why would I mock you? I just like the ginger because the spicyness is the only thing that I can taste right now.

>>61606304
No, I know what popular music means. It was part of my comprehensive music education at university.
If you're a music hobbyist, just admit it.

>>61606312
why not

>>61606304
you're talking to boldfuck, so expect the obvious art/folk/pop music argument to be thrown your way now

>>61606338
the same education you have literally never been able to provide any proof of, not even in your lacking displays of "knowledge" on the subject?

>>61606338

>If you're a music hobbyist, just admit it.

Okay, I guess I am? I don't understand what you mean by that.

>>61606345
Because you're not listening to any music past 1950.
>>61606375
You're a person who uses music for social or personal capital but not as a serious investment of time.

>>61606370
>you have literally never been able to provide any proof of
Personal information on 4chan/RYM is literally retarded.

>>61606393

>You're a person who uses music for social or personal capital but not as a serious investment of time.

What does this have to do with my criticism of RYM?

>>61606421
That I don't think you're really the person who can tell whether or not a person earnestly cares about music.

>>61606408
nice job ignoring the "not even in your lacking displays of "knowledge" on the subject" part
When people are learned, it shows even without them having to provide anything as confidential as personal information. In your case, it doesn't show. You do the math.

Why do you obsess over me, btw? It's kind of funny.

You all sound like a bunch of whiny cunts. Take this pointless argument to twitter.

>>61606512

IDK, I'd just expect you to move on.

>>61606446

Well what you think doesn't really matter. If you truly have a degree in music, then even that doesn't automatically give you authority on all genres and styles of music. Even you said OKC isn't the best rock release so going back to the whole RYM charts thing, wouldn't that mean you agree with me?

I first rated stuff I liked, then I rated stuff I already knew how I'll rate, and between all that I also rated few stuff, that I had no idea how I'll rate.

My point being, don't take rating and keeping the curve nice, so seriously.
