After a few times attempting to get my head around it I still

It's pretty important to anyone who actually performs music OP

The only /mu/core I like is King Crimson, Megadeth, and Black Sabbath

Yeah fair enough.

MBV(the album) is criminally underrated.

>also:

1-Loveless
2-MBV
3-Isn't Anything

i dont like tom waits. all my other friends do but to me all i hear and see in my head is the boogeyman singing like captian beefheart in a sea of dancing skeletons

>if people enjoy something and like discussing/debating about it but I don't understand it, they're just being pretentious/autistic/whatever the word of the day is
And I don't know if I'd say it makes music more intellectual but it definitely does a lot to make it more complex, especially when the people playing it fully understand the time and are able to subdivide it any way they want.

i listened to the first handful of tracks on sountracks for the blind, and disliked it so much that ithink it'll take me ages before i even try again, cos i know it'll prolly take a good 3-4 listens before i start to enjoy listening to it, like it did with to be kind.
honestly i might just give up on swans cos it takes so long for me to get into the music and i really cant be bothered to get into new albums a lot of the time

Music can be kinda like committing to watching a long tv series or something in that way. It's basically a time investment that you hope will be worth it, but some might require more investment than others to get into.
