Van Der Graaf Generator

GY!BE

Too long and pretentious

Autechre elseq

>>73468711
FJM is antithetical to DFW's whole shtick, so yeah, that'd be a poor comparison

>plebs still talk about IJ in /lit/ like the Pale King wasn't a thousand times better
I think 4chan is frozen in some kind of time bubble

An album that is actually pretty good but is ruined by edgy hipsters who over-inflate its worth due to the death of the creator?

>a half finished collection of half-baked ideas conjured up before the author offed himself is better than his masterpiece
Pseud

In the Aeroplane Over the Sea

Obviously

>people arguing about DFW in /mu/
I was like 99% that people stuck mostly to one board
what the fuck

>>73469042
You should see when we start arguing about the Sopranos.

/mu/ seems to have the most people who crossover to other boards. It's pretty slow and repetitive here lately.

Probably Elliott Smith

>sincerity in lyrics
>drug addiction themes
>collection of storytelling that was and wasn't autobiographical

Elliott Smith and David Foster Wallace even articulated themselves in very similar ways. Watch some interviews of both of them and you'll see what I mean.

>>73468772
not really, theyre more alike than different tbqh

>>73469628
nah, SFTB is dark and brooding and spooky. IJ is funny and sad

Fuck off, Tillman was not nearly as educated or intelligent
