So rare.

The 4 best albums from the 60s. Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators has the best use of reverb, Piper the best use of delay/echo, MMT is filled with phasing, and the stooges of course use the wah pedal throught their s/t. Best albums
you better be listening to all those except the stooges in mono
>>74460128
I am, I'm not stupid, I actually like music
Anyone who hasn't seen them live should get the fuck off this board
>>74460105
They haven't been good live since 2012
>>74460105
But they've never toured anywhere near where I live.
>>74460105
i've seen them live twice and they sucked each time
i still enjoy most of their albums, though
You've been selected to construct the next hip-hop supergroup. However, you can only pick from the rappers pictured.You have to pick four, and you can only pick one from each column.
Danny Brown, Asap, Thuggery and Lil Uzi.
I prefer earl sweatshirt as an artist in the first column but I don't think he's fit as well
Rich Chigga, Viper, Young Thug, and XXXTENTACION are the patrician choices.
>>74460276
Same but switch Post with Uzi

What do you make of the success of feminine aesthetics in modern music that's otherwise masculine, especially in the 80's. Motley Crue comes to mind because they were simultaneously explicitly masculine and feminine. Masculine in that they sang about how much ass they kicked, put on spectacular and showoffy drum solos, and claimed to have fucked hundreds of women. At the same time, they were wearing makeup and dressing in pseudo-drag, which seems usually to not be the type of thing women want to associate with, yet they did have groupies and what not and that strategy continued to be successful even up until now on a smaller level with bands like Avenged Sevenfold. This is a big change from women fawning over Elvis Presley, as my grandma did, or the Beatles, which was the first "boy band" phenomenon I'm aware of. This was also popular with visual kei in Japan, and reading about that has given me the insight that pubescent or otherwise less sexually experienced girls often see feminized men as less threatening and unfamiliar, which I believe is how I read someone explaining visual kei's success. If this is true though, it might be adversely affecting female sexuality to favor the less manly, which is ultimately degenerate.

(cont.)
Image wasn't the only thing that was feminized, and this partly comes from black music as well, so you could say it was "niggerized" if you want as well, but increasingly high pitched and emotive, whining types of vocals gained prominence. High pitched voices are feminine the an obvious way, although there is a masculine element to the challenge and the spectacle of pushing the boundaries of one's voice that shouldn't be ignored. Heavily shaky, emotive vocals seemed to have come from blues, negroes having no shortage of things to whine about, but going back to Elvis and other white male performers, there was much more of a stoicism even when they were displaying emotion [1].
There was definitely a freakish and transgressive element to all this, probably best portrayed by Twisted Sister, who are probably the most explicit merging of masculine energy with feminine appearance. They seemed to be trying to look as ugly as possible while doing it as well though, so it was funny, but with many bands it seemed humorless. I know that hermaphroditic deities used to be worshipped long ago, so maybe there's something humans see as divine in that merging of the male and female that was tapped into.
I understand that most creative people in music are men, so that poses a question. What is the appropriate amount of femininity to portray as a male creative musicain, given that women aren't going to make the music they want? Outside of the context of female characters, should musicians present a virtuous and manly face, and is confusing the genders in such a way going to be negative? What makes this phenomenon possible on a psychological level?
