A plebeian is the exact opposite of a patrician. While the musical preferences among individual plebs vary as widely as music itself, all are easily identified by obvious tendencies and behaviors stemming from inner conflict between the compulsion to maintain a self-image of being "really into music" and a stubborn refusal to act accordingly. The pleb is threatened by critical discussion, openly hostile toward anyone who presumes an authoritative position no matter how legitimately, and rankles at any suggestion that he look inward to inspect his own biases or assumptions about music, or even that he has any biases in the first place.
What plebeians believe to be a keen interest in music is in reality an obsession with "taste". This is why they can entertain themselves for hours examining scrobble counts on last.fm, maintaining contrived parabolas of their RYM star ratings, or meticulously assembling a Top 50 chart which displays their grocery-list "eclecticism", but won't read a music text. This is why they loudly proclaim how their virginal taste is unsullied by any reviewer's opinion, yet memorize each of those opinions to cite in endless "drone" accusations. It is why they will evade addressing specific musical assertions at any cost, shifting the topic to popularity, fan image, or imaginary concepts such as "entry-level" or "fedoracore", all of which are better suited to their interests and expertise.
How does any of this apply to music. All the time people this board use "pleb" they usually refer to the music, not the listener.

Bottomless Pit (2016) exchanges the bold somberness of their previous effort with an incredibly belligerent and unrestrained approach towards alternative hip-hop. The profound industrial beat of "Giving Bad People Good Ideas" sets a dystopian precedent for what's soon to come with the frontman, Ride, haphazardly rallying alongside the vocals of Cherry Glazerr's Clementine Creevy. This is soon superseded by the cascading breakcore of "Hot Head" and later the chilling and foreboding "Warping", all culminating with "Bubbles Buried In This Jungle", a maniacal honing of Ride's perplexing talent. But the highlight of the album arrives with its latter half as the demented bubblegum instrumentals of "Houdini" and "BB Poison" lead into "Three Bedrooms in a Good Neighborhood", a nearly surrealist rejection of societal purities. The titular closer track, "Bottomless Pit" extrapolates from all which came before it a bitter and absurdist view of the world, to the point where the mantra "I'll fuck you in half" echoes menacingly throughout.
holy fuck got damnn
cool
it's legit
disappointing. why does /mu/ love this?
all the threads are
>"Hey, its not perfect, but Its pretty good!"
NO.
It is a step backwards. you should not praise this.
>>72508811
I agree it's pretty bad. Only songs I liked was Andromeda and kinda Busted and Blue. Everything else was pretty trash
4/10
>>72508853
strange, I only liked Let Me Out, and I think that was because I was reaching for something to like
>>72508811

What's the most personal and heartbreaking folk record you can possibly think of?
I remember that one underage tripfag who used to love this album and other avant-teen stuff, good times.
This album is not bad but pretty standard indie crap also

Very true by the way, it sounds like Sufjan with longer tracks and a shitty loop machine

Are Swirlies talked about? They're pretty good
>>72508483
yeah we had our very own tripfriend some months ago, shameless swirlies shill
wonder what happened to him
What's the appeal?
It's generic radio-friendly soul pop bolstered by Adele's great ability as a singer.
It ain't hard to figure out, this shit is one of the most sure bets in pop music.
Probably best to ask her fans who aren't likely to here. You will only get stupid, clueless and biased answers here.

What separates good lyrics from bad/cringey/cliche lyrics?
sometimes a chorus
It's all out of context for me. Ween are good lyricists because they pay attention to the mannerisms of the music they parody, but the lyrics themselves are usually dumb.
Bob Dylan or Phil Ochs are good lyricists because they just exceed at prose and sentimentality. Get it?
