It is that easy. Neutral Milk Hotel and Radiohead aren't obscure.
>>
>>69663214

>>
>>69663214
indie
>>
I never know what to say. Usually I just default to the surface indie bands that I like. So Arcade Fire, TV on the Radio, The Strokes, Radiohead, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, etc.
>>
got asked that recently by a qt

our mutual friend laughed and she asked "why'd she laugh"

I said "let's leave it at that" and that was it
>>
>implying op isnt a normie

I just say I don't listen to music. If I become pals with them, then I reveal my true (shit) taste.
>>
>do you listen to the weeknd?
>no
>oh so what do you listen to? like metal or punk or something?

I do that too, just change BoA to Bonobo and 90% people say "yeah, bonobo is nice". End of conversation

>>69663259
The vast majority of normies don't know what NMH is. You spend too much time on /mu/ if you think normies know about it.

You're all so fucking delusional and pathetic and embarrassing. It's hilarious.

>>69663214

>>inb4 just tell the truth
>Its not that easy

it is, just don't be autistic about it.

bad example:

>"Oh yeah I love 12-tone serialism and spectralism and minimalism like [insert lesser-known composers here], and also free jazz and spiritual jazz and experimental underground indie rock and--" (by this point everyone is no longer paying attention to you)

good example:

>"Yeah I'm pretty into classical and jazz. One of my favorite composers right now is Arnold Schoenberg. How about you?"

techno interests me

oh whatever comes on the radio

It's funny because i always wanna answer "all types of music, i don't have a favorite genre" which is ultimately true but it's such a normie answer that usually means "i don't know anything about music so i kinda just listen to what's on the radio" that i don't say it
>>
I fucking hate these threads. It's not even hard to say what kinda music you like. tap into your less autistic tendencies and try to mention accessible artists. indie rock and electronic music are a lot more mainstream nowadays so unless all you listen to is obscure free jazz and other pretentious shit that /mu/ tells you to like, you'll be fine
>>
>>69663881
You don't know what normal means?

1. Someone who is considered normal. As in, in the norm. They have a standard personality, their life path is usual and their goals are standard.

2. I'm smaller than most people. Therefore I'm not in the norm.
>>
>>69664711
That's a shitty tip dude.

>>69663653
This. You all sit around and listen to Kanye West, and Radiohead, and Carly Rae Jepsen, and act like that makes you weird. It's pathetic.
>>
>>69663591
It was literally on Parks and Rec
>>
I tell them I only listen to national socialist black metal
>>
>>69664874
>mentioned once on parks and rec
>therefore every normie knows about it when you name drop it
>implying any of the above would diminish the quality of music

"no"
>>
>>69664862
i would consider it weird to listen to carly rae jepsen if you're not a 13 year old girl.
