Correctamundo.

There's a lot of good music coming out of Japan right now

car seat headrest made practically everyone's year end list and rightfully so

>>69871521
this

get fucked you dumbshit frogposter, then kill yourself

>>69871472
I'm 12 years old but I love queen and Pink Floyd unlike the other idiot in my generation who only listen to crap like Taylor swift and rap

How the fuck am I supposed to know how old everyone is in these bands?

>>69871521
gay furry fuck off

>>69871644
>car seat headrest
>good

pick fucking one. the fact that this is supposedly the best there is to offer (it's not) shows how bad it is. it's literally fucking furry faggot mentally ill trash.

if you think it's not trash you unironically, literally and objectively have shit taste in music and should stop posting on /mu/.

anyone who thinks car seat headrest is good objectively has shit taste in music, it's actually that simple

>>69871644
>that is supposedly the best there is
I dont think I necessarily implied that. Either way how the fuck am I supposed to know how old the people are in these bands? How do you?

>>69871711
pretty much every band/artist /mu/ talks about are the same artists that were popular a decade ago.

>>69871711
>>69871695
CSH > your favorite band

Get fucked

>>69871761
for example? Swans are extremely polarizing around here.

>>69871769
you literally have no idea how bad your taste even is

>nu-male furry faggot trash
>good

faggot

>>69871824
Point proven thanks dumb fuck

>>69871448
>"le gen x was great"
>90s scene full of faggots ripping off the velvet underground

>>69871448
I take it you dont like rap then?

because that list is huge and rarely goes over 30

>>69871849
>he still thinks car seat head rest is good

you can't make this shit up

i bet you unironically enjoy being cucked too

>>69871448

im a millennial and i make good music so there

>>69871880
better than whatever shit you listen i gurantee it faggot

>>69871769
CSH is the type of shit that "hipster girls" play on their Crosley while smoking menthols and drinking cheap vodka to impress boys who actually listen to real patrician music. Toledo is a boring songwriter and the shitty strokes impression that he does is a sorry excuse for a vocal style.

>>69871448
>What is shoegaze?

"i was born in da rong generashun"

>>69871896
This has to be a joke but let me compare CSH and my favorite band animal collective.

CSH: Follows basic song structure much of the time often with very minimalist instrumentation that doesn't really explore anything new sonically or lyrically. Toledo is neither a very charismatic frontman nor a particularly talented vocalist.

Anco: created what is possibly the defining psychedelic record of the decade, constantly explores new sounds and even used conventional instruments such as a guitar in rather unconventional ways as displayed on sung tongs. Their music is often oddly structures with many long drawn out segments of sonic experimentation. Their two vocalists Avey and Panda both have better ranges than toledo and write better melodies and harmonies than him. Avey particularly is a much more expressive and emergizing frontman than toledo as well as a better piano/guitar player.
I'm stopping now because I fear I may have taken the bait

There's really no way I can know how old the majority of all these people are.

The programmer/drum machine guy looked young as shit. The singer I couldnt really say. I'm not the best judge of age.

>>69871896
>car seat headrest
>better than David Bowie, Peter Green, The Smiths and Pink Floyd

topfuckingkek

>>69872072
again I cant fucking know how old these people are. Should I ask to see their ID? The singer looked pretty young I guess.

I've never even heard CH but that's pretty adorable.

>>69872140
Shit

>>69872072
you say CSH is shit but listen to AnCo lmao don't reply me anymore

>>69871945
still better than your favorite band

>hop along, have a nice life, deafheaven (I know it's a meme but come on), touche amore, Andrew Jackson Jihad, Joyce manor

There's a bunch of good millennial "rock" bands. There's even more good hip hop music being made by millennials but you already seem closed minded as fuck so I won't list those.

>>69872157
>other random popular shit
>pink floyd and david bowie

does your contrarianism also force you to breathe only carbon dioxide instead of oxygen? if it doesn't, I hope it does soon

What about Pup? Id classify them as either punk or alternative and they are bretty gud imo

>>69872188
Are deafheaven really that young?

I'm feeling this is bait. Literally no one with a soul can dislike anco.

>>69872206
Formed in 2010, Im sure they're all under 30

>>69872214
typical AnCo fag who thinks his mediocre pop boy band shits gold

No b8 just calling out your pleb taste while you have the nerve to shit on the tastes of others lol

>>69872229

are you retarded?

>>69872238
Isn't one of the pre requisites of boybands that they're hot? I'm not going to argue that Avey and Panda are hot AF but you ever see geologist and deak?

>>69872229
>Formed in 2010,
wut that isnt correlated to age at all

>there are literally no good bands made up of millenials

it's possible that it's because we can make music by ourselves with a DAW and some plugins. There's some pretty good producers right now to be quite honest.

>>69872259
Millennials are people under 35 and older than 18 right now. I'm like 99% sure no one in deafheaven is over 35 years old, just look at them.

Real/full name: Kerry Dylan McCoy; Age: 28 (born Jan 1988)

and I dunno their last album wasnt all that great but I think the argument is still supported.

>>69872293
No they arent. They are born 2000s+

>>69872320
what in the literal fuck

no

>>69872320
This is what everyone who doesn't know what a millennial is says. The date of birth range for millennials is like 1985-1995.

>>69872344
>>69872320
you both are wrong

>>69872268
I agree that CSH is shit, but using AnCo to argue made me kek

>>69872320
Time magazine uses people born between 1980 and 2000 to define millennials. The lead singer of deafheaven was born in 1988. The other main creative force of the band (the guitatist I don't remember his name) went to high school with Clarke. So yes, they are millennials.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennials

>Millennials (also known as Generation Y, Generation Me and Echo Boomers) are the demographic cohort following Generation X. There are no precise dates for when this cohort starts or ends; demographers and researchers typically use the early 1980s as starting birth years and ending birth years ranging from the mid-1990s to early 2000s.

>>69872365
It was mostly a meme and I was trying to become a copypasya t b h

>>69872384
>The lead singer of deafheaven was born in 1988.
Kerry is the guitarist if you were referencing my post with his age.

I think these guys count as millennials

West Philadelphia musician Frances Quinlan, 26, began playing guitar and writing songs when she was 14 years old. While in college, in Maryland, she started a solo project called Hop Along, Queen Ansleis.

well thats one member down. this is hard work.

>>69872553
What

>>69871448
the early 2000s generation will be the next great decade in music

screenshot this

>>69872577
thats the singer of Hop Along

its really hard work to determine how old all these people are especially since we're limited to exclusively "indie rock"

>>69872627
wow what a prediction your foresight is out of this world anon

Angel Olsen (born January 22, 1987) is an American folk and indie rock singer and guitarist who was raised in St. Louis, Missouri[1][2] and currently lives in Asheville, North Carolina.[3]

>tfw you're old enough to have seen the cycle repeat itself a couple of time and nothing impresses you anymore

>>69872365
AnCo is good though.

>>69872641
The oldest person on that list is Dan Barret from have a nice life, he sits right on the edge of what is technically a millennial. But honestly who gives a fuck what generation an artist is from as long as they make good music?

>>69871521
Will Toledo is unironically the best indie artist we've had in a while, and I say this only because of Twin Fantasy

>>69872700
>But honestly who gives a fuck what generation an artist is from as long as they make good music?
because thats the point of the thread?

I'm marking the cutoff at 30

which takes out Viet Cong who I just looked up

>>69872689
hahahahahahaha

>>69872707
Dude "indie" is dead, move the fuck on. There's a reason no one makes boom bap mid nineties hip hop anymore. Everything that needed to be said sonically had been said. Maybe try to experiment a little bit. Best case scenario, you make an actual impact, worst case scenario, you make something actually interesting.

although Viet Cong would actually qualify just not Preoccupations

>>69872759
see
>>69872769

>>69872759
actually worst case scenario your album don't sell and you die of starvation

>>69872759
or you totally waste your time like 99.9% of people doing the exact same shit nowadays

>>69871448
Chelsea Wolfe is pretty good
There's definitely some good young artists, but I agree that compared to other generations is pretty shite
Unless you listen to indie shit and unoriginal hip-hop, then you're pretty much set for the next decade

>>69872734
>Albums selling
>In 2016
What fucking century are you living in dude?

>>69872819

Stop this shit meme that is all over the internet. You really dont have anything to hate anymore so you started fucking with generations. This is fucking stupid. Are we going to hate people with blond hair in 5 years?

MODS

uhm what about K-pop?

check and mate, mate

>>69875444
Just because you dont understand the lyrics and korean sound le sweet *aww* it doesnt make it any better than western pop.

Its just like the japanese rock meme

>>69875513

take that back

Pretty much every form of music has been played out and technology has yet to advance to a point where we can see another boom in musical innovation
Social media ensures that underground subcultures cannot develop their own sound, so everyone sounds the same
People are too focused on the aesthetic/political part of music and not the sonic part
Pretty much everything has become commercialized; even harsh noise is trendy now so people who want to avoid music industry bullshit and work with people who only care for sound are out luck
And finally, overexposure to any and all music ever means everyone just wants to imitate their favorite scene instead of developing their own; search No Wave or RIO on bandcamp and you'll find a ton of wannabes trying to revive the aesthetic of the scene without trying to actually do something to represent the 21st century
