Was /mu/ every a place where you could discuss music normally?

Back around the time MPP came out, people generally focused on the real meat of the music and discussions were rich, with insightful posts.

And they used to keep discussion about an album to 1 thread! Sometimes 2 if there was a topic worth separating.

People only listen and talk about the most generic and popular music here I don't know what you are making a fuss about

>>72171934
You're not wrong. Popular music is heavily discussed in /mu/. But they're not quality threads where you can learn something new about an album/artist, or express you're honest opinion and have an honest response without a condesending tone. Every thread goes like this: /mu/ writes an honest insightful comment -> /mu/ writes an edgy "i hate all popular music" comment -> /mu/ starting fighting about the tastes because of the troll. And that's it. Over and over again.

This a patrician board. We only talk about music we don't like

>>72171861
are you retarded? hospice, mpp, deathconsciousness, iaots, and divorce lwayers were literally the only things posted. it was filled with cringelords and just as shitty memes and instults. you were probably 12 so you thought other posters were more intelligent than they seem now but really they are just as stupid

>>72172551
this is true. i'm kinda embarrassed to listen to those bands anymore. It's good, but you should listen to different things.

>And they used to keep discussion about an album to 1 thread!
Just like you're contributing to do right now by bumping yet ANOTHER fucking kendshit thread, fuckhead? FUCK OFF

Yes it's definitely possible but you have to do so in a sea of memes and post-ironic bullshit. this whole board is where post-modern philosophy is bastardized.

People seem overly defensive, and angry here. The whole insecure hiding behind memes and irony is quite sad.

>STOP DISLIKING WHAT I LIKE
>IT'S POPULAR SO U ONLY DISLIKE IT CUZ UR A CONTRARIAN

I'm sorry you are who you are.

Bullshit, that was a shitty period for /mu/. Radiohead, Animal Collective, whatever that Anne Frank album was, and that was basically it. Boring hipster circlejerking and not much else.

The share threads were epic back then though.

How old are you OP? No hate.

>>72173345
People always get super angry about music tho
Everyone feels a special connexion to their favourite bands wich makes them super sensitive everytime it's criticised

>>72171713

I mean, every board on 4chan has always had its fair share of shitposting, but here it used to be tolerable and usually funny, and contained to its own threads. And in between that you could find threads dedicated to moderately serious discussion

Ever since /pol/ and the alt-right had its Renaissance and leaked all over this website though, pretty much every board that gets at least a moderate amount of traffic has more or less been ruined

>>72174774
> blaming every problem on /pol/ and not just underage shit head kids and reddit normies who think memes make them cool
this site should really be anti-meme and stop, just to repel off the normies again

/pol/ kind of ruined the whole website honestly. You could always find good pockets almost everywhere before.

yfw /pol/ needs its own containment website
