>tfw no one will ever continue documenting the history of rock music

Relief so people can stop memeing about him.

if dubs Scaruffi will never die

>>61753490
>tfw his website will probably be deleted.

: ' (

>>61753148
Be sad. Mostly for future generations. From an archival standpoint, his work is actually really important and he's a phenomenal writer. I know a lot of people meme him and quote him ironically but he's a cool guy, honest.

>>61753148
>sixty something
>still updating his website
He'll be fine

at the end realize that nobody knows if it really happened

If dubs he'll be fine

>>61753571
You're implying Scaruffi has any affect on the world outside /mu/.

He doesn't, and thank god for that, his taste is horrible.

>>61753610
>nobody knows if it really happened
that should be engraved on his tombstone


which i hope is not erected for another few decades

>yfw he'll die without experiencing that underage coochie

>>61753650
>taste

I don't always agree with him but I think he's an honest guy with distinct taste that represented me to a lot of artists. There's isn't many people ever as seriously devoted to rock like him (not to mention all the other stuff, AI philosophy and shit).
I'll be sad.

>>61753502
I'm pretty sure the scruffy memes will go off the charts if he dies

>>61753650
>literally one of the first sites on the web
>irrelevant outside /mu/

let me guess, you think scaruffi popularized trout mask replica as well. fucking neo-/mu/ kiddies, i swear

>>61753650
his taste is great

>>61753668
No. I clearly implied he has no effect on the outside world. TMR is popular because it's good.

I just don't like Scaruffi.

>>61753689
your post implied /mu/ is the only place where he's taken seriously, which is demonstrably false. the man has had a following since before 4chan existed, like him or not.

What score do you think Scaruffi will give his own death?

It doesn't really matter how good his taste is, it's about the sheer amount of shit he has on the site.
I wouldn't feel sad but I definitely would be scared about where it would all go

>>61753650
Literally could not be more wrong. The bulk of his readership has been following him for upwards of twenty years. He's the most prolific Internet age music critic ever.

>>61753715
where? Italy maybe, but other than that I don't know anyone who takes his opinion seriously even if they know of him.

>>61753722
he already wrote a review of it

http://www.scaruffi.com/phi/syn118.html

>>61753753
scaruffi is an important figure in the patrician scene, kid. watch your mouth

>>61753725
this

there's even a section dedicated to "Funny Stories from Travel Agencies", for fuck's sake

the site is basically his whole life documented

>>61753792
so he's an important figure in the imaginary scene /mu/ made up, got it.

Then my point stands.

Hell, I remember 2009 /mu/ and he was never mentioned then. He's only relevant to newfags.

>>61753753
this post demonstrates the difference between patricians and the plebs

>>61753759
I don't get this article, couldn't the conclusion reached form it be that life is, in fact, a precious fleeting spectacle that should be enjoyed every minute?

>>61753811
How new, newfrog?

>>61753725

How much space will it take to archive it all? Wikipedia without images isn't that big, if I recall.

>>61753753
he's had an online following since the mid 80s, has thousands of followers/friends on twitter/facebook, and has taught classes at uc berkeley. for a specific community outside of /mu/ where has a large following, there's listology.

Happy as fuck. He is at fault for all the bad memes on this board.

>>61753811
>"imaginary scene /mu/ made up"
>people who aren't part of the scene actually believe this

ha.

>>61753854

(not true, by the way)

>>61753811

But this is wrong you fucking retard

>>61753854

Sounds like someone's in need of some lusty negro attitudes.

he reminds me of father oblivion from videodrome but updated for the internet age. instead of having the entirety of his being on vhs tapes, it's on the web.

>Let's Dace is a 4.5
>Space Oddity, Diamond Dogs, and The Next Day are 4s; the same score as Tin Machine
>Pin-Ups is a 3
I have never felt rage at the Italian's views before, but he sure is outlandish at times. Did appreciate that he saw Earthling as the gem that it is though.

>>61753753

you think /mu/ just picked a random italian guy to be their critic god?

>>61753759
I understand his point but jesus christ.

>we cry at funerals not to laugh

i don't like him at all so i wouldn't care very much
probably avoid /mu/ for a couple of days

What did he mean by this?

>>61753965
scaruffi hates cover albums so it's no surprise he gave pin ups a 3. i don't know if i've seen him give anything higher to one.

>>61754211
he's a pretty tired guy
