is it worth it to make the upgrade to the hd 650s?
i have the 558s (no amp) and i'll have to buy an amp for the 650s, right? so it'll be quite the investment
p-please

/mu/ doesn't know shit about headphones except for meme ones. go to /g/ or something
>>71841650
Not really that expensive. You could probably get away with say, a schiit fulla 2 and those, so $450 total, and that'll have a doc, which you will need unless you're listening to something analog.
You will need the amp, and while the doc is technically not necessary, you'd be stupid no not use one with mid-fi or better headphones, because it's your weakest link at that point.
1. How do you pronounce Can? Is it just pronounced like the english word "can"? Asking because it's a German band.

This guy wrote an album about how his wife died. People feel bad for him and say that the album is good.
>>71841273
You seem to lack empathy, friend. Too bad you'll never have a wife to die on you.
>>71841273
okay, but you never even said why the album was bad, you retard.
>>71841341
I feel bad the guy lost his wife, but the album is trash. I defy you to listen to it.

How can a band go from being so brilliant and fresh to incapable of writing even one interesting song?
You grew up and your critical thinking skills matured.

Am I the only one on this board that thinks Gorillaz is shit and cringe worthy middle school tier music?
>>71840818
no i do too
There's no denying they're middle school tier, probably everyone here listened to them in middle school. That doesn't mean we can't like em though
did you miss all the gorillaz threads here lately?

This is their best album aside from Pet Sounds. Every track is fantastic.

It's their third best. Surf's Up is clearly their second best.
Lol no summer in paradise is by far the best.

Has there ever been a song you once liked that had been ruined by reading the lyrics? I'm typically not the best at deciphering lyrics by ear and obviously the music and the vocalizations are more important than any meaning the lyrics have. But once I discover the lyrics and can actually grasp the meaning behind them it can really ruin a song.
The best example I can think of is Adore by Savages. I didn't know much about the group and heard the song through Sirius radio, finding it an incredibly well written post-punk song with a great finish. From the lyrics I managed to make out it sounded like some resolution about enjoying life despite ill circumstance.
When I later learned of the lyrics I was absolutely disgusted. The song was basically the writer trying to reason with a heartbroken lover over the fact that she cheated on him, by making herself out to be the victim. She uses the analogy of "adoring life" and what amounts to YOLO ("I may die maybe tomorrow") to justify being a slut and cites primal "human" desire as a reason for her hypergamy, asking if it's unreasonable to want more from life. Basically she's a cheating slut who goes back on her inability to be satisfied and is calling her grieving ex-lover inhuman for being upset over her.
In any other day and age she'd be ostracized but I guess this is a new virtuous thing to sing about. The song from a musical standpoint is still great, but the meaning of the lyrics is so mean spirited it truly ruins the piece.

Lyrics aren't that important me
Unless they're deliberately making a point or written for interpretation

To me lyrics matter musically if they flow with the song or just work. I always hate it when an artist crams a bunch of shit into a verse really fast to keep up with the music.
In most cases I wouldn't care about the meanings, especially since most artists keep it vague. But in this case the meaning is blatant is mean spirited so it detracts from it.
Some of the newer songs by BRAIDS have a similar effect since it's just Raphaelle spouting a bunch of feminist nonsense and passing it off as a wise world view. The song Miniskirt is one such example, because it's literally just a song the exemplifies that belief that "I'm wearing this dress for me and not you" meme which everyone knows is "I'm wearing this dress to get attention by men I find attractive and not you less attractive men that I'll project negative masculinity connotations against because I'm insecure of men judging me based on my looks."
