Explain why you hate him without referring to his personality, his fanbase, or using that retarded "he keeps making the same songs" argument. I know for a fact this board only hates him because he's too popular and /mu/ is full of pretentious fucks who only enjoy obscure experimental harsh no-fi jazzcore garbage. Fuck you.

You watched that "A word to the kids who dress like Mac DeMarco video" and you're just lashing out
his music is formulaic as fuck, he over saturates his music with vibrato and chorus, his lyrics are F tier love trash, there's hardly any variation in the music(volume dynamics), it's overproduced as fuck with no chill vibes at all since it's so fucking clean sounding, taken virtually no risks in his entire career other than "some other ones" and his vocals are lazy and uninspired.
he's basically the shit derivative of john lennon, george harrison, and a little bit of the smiths
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpZCA_Qvx4gi i enjoy this song though
I only hate him because Macthony DeMarcotano didn't give This Old Dog an 8/10.

what i said about volume and variation was retarded, what i meant was he's always somewhere in the middle volume wise and he never goes hard or softens up. his music is so cold and bland it angers me that people think he's any better than some bandcamp artist making drone

Did you not listen to Makeout videotape?

i didn't

No, you're pretty much right. The only thing close to criticism I can give him is that there are just better artists like him out there, while he dumbs it down and sells it. The musical equivalent of a happy meal.
you people sure are angry over weird things. I think he's pretty good. while his fanbase is annoying, I think he is good at what he's trying to do. there's no reason to hate him because he doesn't switch things up, its just his thing. not all artists need to reinvent themselves

I can't hate someone I don't know
He is very derivative. He sounds like what your friend that plays the guitar would come up after smoking weed and fiddling around playing with it in between actual songs.
He never develops his songs too much, so it always sounds like he is just playing around with some sounds without writing songs of actual substance. I don't hate him at all btw, but he does get old really quickly.

he steals all from tonetta

they should though. otherwise it's not good music. the reason no one talks about explosions in the sky is because it's already been done before and it's been done better. mac's music might live up to some pop standard in terms of the business but it has no lastability.
music is no where near as serious as you are all trying to make it be
