Unique opinions thread

Philip Glass is a complete hack and gives the entire movement of minimalism a bad name
The Ramones are one of the worst bands of all time, and the fact that they were so influential made pop music as a whole worse
Death Grips are the single best band to debut in the 2000s, and Niggas on the Moon is the third best hip hop album of all time
Biosphere is a huge hack and anyone inspired by his work (including Tim Hecker, OPN, Lawrence English and Ben Frost) is either a hack or a potentially good musician wasting their talents

Judas Priest vs. Iron Maiden is ehh, they're about even.

Kreator opinion is correct.

The Doors you could at least make an argument for.

Velvet Underground opinion is right.

Everything else is edgy contrarian horseshit even people who watch MTV in 2017 can tell you is wrong. Try harder next time

>>73083916
>Judas Priest is better than Iron Maiden
>Kreator is the best Teutonic thrash band
These are true. I add:
Ramones are one of the best bands ever
70's punk was best punk
New York Dolls were a good band and johnny thunders is a genius
the 70's was the best dacade for rock music
never mind the bollocks is interesting but not the best ever
Molested's "Blood Draum" is one of the best death metal albums

>>73084911
Sex Pistols are the best of the original punk bands

>>73084826
>Death Grips are the single best band to debut in the 2000s
Nah, that would be Toxic Holocaust.

>>73084962
dunno imho ramones or the heartbreakers are the best

>>73083916
Possessed, Death, Deicide and Entombed are the only good Death Metal bands.

>>73083916
>Viking Metal is better than power metal
Viking metal isn't a genre you twit

>>73085010
Avant teens ruined this board

Abbey Road is the worst later Beatles album

Torrenting music is wrong

CDs are too expensive

Playing live can destroy the artist's creativity

Lyrics are important as they represent the sound, either have good lyrics or none at all.

Listening to one genre or music is a waste of possible enjoyment.

Reviewing music is pointless as enjoyment from music cannot be objectified universally.

Agree with all the points, especially the first one. I try to avoid torrenting whenever possible, especially for smaller bands.

>>73085509

This truly is the duality of man

>>73085509
>playing live can destroy the artist's creativity
how so
>reviewing music is pointless
half agree. sometimes a good reviewer can guide the listener to hear things in more nuanced ways though

>>73085653
That was the only point I thought back upon, I think I put that because some of the "underground" artist's CDs go for about 15-30 quid here in the UK, and sometimes there's also sometimes customs charge (I bought a Tamaryn shirt+cd combo and due to customs it was around 40 quid). So maybe SOME CDs are too pricey. Especially some atmospheric black metal CDs with like 4 repetitive tracks.

>>73085723
I was watching this Agalloch interview on youtube and the members all stated that they had to limit their instruments, complexity and ideas to fit a live environment for an honest, representative show, I can just imagine perhaps other bands have familiar dilemmas which limits the capabilities of an Album to play live realistically.

Viking Metal is 100% a genre, end yourself.

Devo's first album is excessively overrated

Abbey Road is the most overrated album of all time (not a bad album)

The Brown Album is better than Frizzle Fry

The Mollusk is better than Quebec

The Cowboy Bebop soundtrack is the greatest OST of all time

Death Grips is still one of if not the most interesting musical acts to come out of this decade

'Duty Now for the Future' is Devo's best album
'More Songs About Building and Food' is Talking Heads' best album

>>73083916
>The Doors were the best band of the 60s
i agree

Thrash is NOT trash
It has the highest consistency of good albums in metal

Aside from a few tracks, Pet Sounds is boring

Maad City is better than TPAB

Run the Jewels is the best hip hop act in a long time

King Crimson has 4 good albums, the rest are forgettable

Brand new, sure. Buying used from a record store or thrift store, it's super cheap. This goes for records too

Satan is better than Judas Priest or Iron Maiden
Helloween's first album beats any album after it.
Power and thrash metal beat death, black, folk, viking and progressive metal any day.
Filosofem beats any album Varg ever did.
Rainbow Rising beats any rock album from the 70s or 80s.
Sabaton's Carolus Rex is the best power metal album of this decade.
Wasted Years is Iron Maiden's best song.
Kreator is overrated, Sodom and Pessimist are not.
Manowar and Gloryhammer beats Rhapsody, Blind Guardian.
Rust in Peace beats any other album by the big 4 except Ride the Lightning.

Thrash metal for the most part is boring.
Most hip hop before 2000 is boring.
Father john misty is a hack.
Death grips are one of the best acts of the 2010s.
NIN lyrics are more conplex and thematic then most people give trent credit for.
Classical music is boring because it lacks personality and emotion.

Why do poeple like clsssical music?
It lacks everything that makes music special in the first place, no personality no emtion just a bunch of grandious technicality that all sounds the same.
Its like buying a chair from IKEA and putting it together with the instructions, while it is still a chair that works as a chair it lacks the fine tuned details and craftsmanshis that you would see in a hand made chair.

>Philip Glass is a complete hack and gives the entire movement of minimalism a bad name
This is a fairly popular opinion... more radical (and more accurate) would be "Philip Glass and Steve Reich." I agree about Biosphere, though

Fuck no.

>>73085591
Unironically rustled

>>73091091
Steve Reich is the most disciplined composer of the minimalists. His ideas weren't as radical as stone of his peers but his execution of those ideas was unparalleled.

>>73085084
nah

It was ruined from the start.

They're actually the worst.

Pantera and Sabaton are both good bands.

Good to know. That would be why other hacks like Ravi Shankar and David Byrne worked with him, right?
