>>70867679
>>70867903

>>70868107
Pitchfork is just Billboard for hipsters, anon.
>>70868195
Who said anything about cuntfork
The Smiths
Good god, where did all the normie love for them come from? I remember in school I was like one of about four people who actually listened to them. Now every Chad and Stacey is quoting them on twitter and talking about how Morrissey speaks to their soul.
>>70868227
I have yet to meet anyone who likes the smiths to that extent, most people who think they are ""indie"" listen to garbage like the lumineers, imagine dragons, fun the list goes on. But people who say shit like it saved their life make me cringe.
>>70868210
It's where /mu/ gets its taste. We might as well rename the board /p4k/ since /mu/ only listens to music Pitchfork talks about.
>>70868281
Assuming you're American, at least your Indie kids don't listen to music that is 100% garbage.
Maybe 90%, but at least they're not as bad as shit like Peace, The Courteeners, Wolf Alice, Bastille and Two Door Cinema Club.
Foals, alt-J and Savages are the only good UK Indie bands.

Mac Demarco
Tame Impala
Radiohead
>>70868291
I only listen to what I like
>>70868291

>>70869724
I don't pander, take a gander
>>70869864
take a break from this board. youre everywhere
>>70869864
oh my god i've seen you posting this shit before and i sincerely hope this is bait
>>70867679
The Money Store is pretty out there for an album on Epic. On one hand, it's pretty weird, on the other hand, uniquely accessible. I think DG hit the nail on the head with this one, intentionally or non-intentionally.
>>70869894
I've been here 4 years, and I will be here 4 more if need be! I will not let /mu/ ever completely be a hivemind, you all have so much greater potential because you all came here to find new and interesting music, as I did, but those who spread the word of /mu/core stagnate and suffocate your exploration and make you lose your desire to journey further than the entry level threshold of music exploration.
I. Love. You. /mu/.
And I want to see you become the kind of board that discusses everything from obscure 1920s recordings of south american tribal music to No-Input Generative J-concrete harsh wallwave. I want to see you explore every inch of music and leave no song undiscovered, and come to love all kinds of music, as I do after many years of auditory exploration.

My chart may not have the "objectively" best examples of each genre on it, but it is my own personal favorites.
>>70870128
you make me sad
>>70870309
your shitty taste makes me sad
not him btw
>>70868227
Sorry man, it applies to you also. Even in the 80s they were for Normie's that thought they were unique.
>>70867679
Let's be honest here, anco fits the bill perfectly.
>>70870356

kys
>>70872030
>Tfw there are people on this board right now who actually believe ITAOTS is a meme
>>70872079
NMH is unique in that sense.. its only basic if you think you're special for listening to them. Otherwise they're perfectly enjoyable
>>70871665
Chance is more of a "I'm not like other girls, I listen to hip hop" tier rapper like G-Eazy and Drake
>>70872428
You forgot J "intelligent's" Cole, or is that a different category?
>>70872449
Guys fuck with Cole too on a large scale, I guess he kind of counts
As much as i/mu/ like them I have to say..
>Joy Division
your favorite album
Why? I don't know but it's annoying as ballsack
The Neighbourhood
More specifically, only their first album since the type of people who like them think rap is nothing but muh soggy knee
>>70867679
Its sad because nobody itt knows this label applies to them also
Someone post the poseur list, that is mus version of the 1975, Lana del rey, Mac demarco, etc
