ITT: things pseuds say >Loveless is "style over substance"

>babby's first shoegaze album

This thread is shit, you are shit

Loveless on the other hand is GOAT

>>72887368
Also the only good one

Any time someone dismissed something on /mu/ by calling it a meme

>>72887392
it's not even the best record MBV did.

>>72887403
Wrong. Loveless makes the rest of their discography looks like shit in comparison.

>>72887403
Loveless is best MBV for sure.

>>72887392
All natural lemon and lime flavors - turning into small
not better, but does some things better than loveless.
Very hazy like loveless but slightly more awake, drums a lil faster, way more electronic , vocals less sound like a stoners last words. Good stuff

>>72887325
Statements that a loveless fanboy couldn't argue against his life depended on it.
>Loveless is "style over substance"
>Loveless is just bland pop music with reverb

>And I thought U2 were shit.

>>72887645
It's not like they're well-substantiated assertions to begin with. "Style over substance" is essentially a meaningless buzzphrase; if you ask anyone what they mean by this they'll invariably default to the "bland pop with reverb" stock criticism, which not only inaccurate but also just another baseless opinion statement.

>>72887645
Please tell me how many people who listen to top 40 also genuinely enjoy Loveless.

Because it should be pop with reverb, right? Either way, I'd recommend watching this video:

>Sonic Youth is boring college rock

>>72887645
Loveless doesn't even use very much reverb. Its thickness all in the layering of instrumentation and Shield's use of whammy.

that album is literally boring pop eith reverb dumbass
low t indie fags can neither deny or argue this concrete fact

>The layered vocals on "When You Sleep" were born out of frustration with trying to get the right take. Shields commented that "The vocals sound like that because it became boring and too destructive trying to get the right vocal. So I decided to put all the vocals in. (It had been sung 12 or 13 times)."[21] He explained:
>On 'When You Sleep' it sounds like me and Bilinda singing together, but it's just me – me slowed down and me speeded up at the same time. Some songs we sang over and over until we got bored – usually between 12 and 18 times. I started sorting through the tapes and it did my head in, so I just played them all together and it was really good – like one, vaguely distinct voice.[43]

Calling Loveless "pop with reverb" is a gross oversimplification of its painstaking and highly idiosyncratic approach to sound art. Like the other anon said, Shields' guitar sound on the album isn't reliant on reverb but mainly on distortion, feedback, studio experimentation and his "glide guitar" technique. The core aesthetic of the album evinced most readily in its unique production style is also reflected through the sophisticated, almost impressionistic approach to composition (though this likely goes over the heads of most non-musicians): extended and suspended harmonies everywhere, unresolved dissonances in the melodic lines, touches of modality, droning phrases that last longer than you'd typically see in pop music, simplified repeating structures etc. All of these stylistic traits combine to establish the ethereal, hypnotic atmosphere the album is clearly aiming for.

Unless you're a dadrock-droning redditor who hates pop music for its own sake, there's no reason to dislike Loveless apart from being a plebeian.

At least have the decency to sage when you shitpost.

Only Shallow's scorched-earth squall is so fucking sick, you idiot. You are not worthy of it. That being said - Just Like Honey is a great song, ofc.

Not really, it's pathetic. If only it was actually funny.

>hi I am a cunt and I try to sound smart
yet you still fell for lowest common denominator shit for people that have never developed an individual taste xD

>>72888459
Shut the fuck up you faggot, that album is nothing special and just because you use big words it doesn't mean you're right, you have literally said nothing. You're the biggest pseud I have seen today

Just delete your posts already and leave the fucking thread. This album is a basic repetitive garbage. There is absolutely nothing complex about it but how would a nigger know when all he listens to is fucking pop music. You're so much desensitized and adhd ridden by pop music that you think the smallest difference is ground breaking and innovating.

Some people definitely have too much free time.

Loveless has the coolest narrative so it's praised the most. IMO Loveless is kind of a meh middle ground in between the actually exciting sides of the spectrum, MBV and Isn't Anything.
