Anthony Fantano's 5 favourite bands

...

thank goodness now I can sleep

>godspeed
HAHAHAHAHA cunt

holy fucking shit

i dont believe this for a second
where are meme grips? he rides rides cock constantly

points for GY!BE and talking heads, don't know about the rest. black sabbath seems a pleb choice

what a faggot

>godspeed you! black emperor

>memespeed you! black memeperor
>meming heads
>dead memedys
>black memeth
>memegazi

Any guy who likes Dead Kennedys and Sabbath is cool with me.

black sabbath's first few albums are actually amazing

Eh, I like GY!BE and all, but having them as one of your favorite bands beyond your teenage years is kinda gay.

The only good choice there is GYBE. Talking Heads, Fugazi and Dead Kennedys are OK. Black Sabbath is just a major plebshit choice

pretty pleb but i cant hate it

Good post.

good choices except for godspeed

suprisingly based top 5

unironically good taste

fuck off black sabbath are perfect

thank you my friend

only reason he didn't say Death Grips is because he doesn't want to be seen as a dick rider.

They only have 4 albums worth listening to. And 3 of them have aged poorly.

Sabbath>Fugazi>GYBE>Talking Heads>DK

lol

>don't know the rest
wow, Fugazi is the best DIY band ever and Black Sabbath are still incredible after all these years

lol

horseshit, though i respect your opinion

their first 6 albums is the best classic rock to ever be recorded IMO

> 3 have aged poorly
lol nope the first 4 are still definitively heavy, even today

gy!be has aged like milk. anythng with the 'post-rock' tag is unmitigated plebshit. black sabbath is what rock'n'roll is all about, man. If you don't get it you never will

Why do you even fucking bother existing Proge mon?

I'm surprised he didn't say Swans and Death Grips. But I guess that's too expected.

Fugazi are solid but I wouldn't call them the "best DIY band", not that I pay attention to whether a band is DIY or not.

You kidding? They've been rereleasing the same album god knows how many times for the past few decades.

First 4 are good but they haven't aged well with exception of Master of Reality, which is still a landmark in doom metal after 40 years.

Paranoid and s/t sound so weak in today's modern context.

Ah, so it's one guy samefagging his garbage opinions. Nice

Have a (You)

talking heads>DK>Sabbath>gybe>fugazi

>fugazi

my nigga

this trip is full on autistic tonight. did your gf leave you ? explain your behaviour

>which is still a landmark in doom metal after 40 years.
of course its a fucking landmark they may as well have invented it

what do you think about sabbath bloody sabbath though? I know you're a prog head and that's sabbath's "proggiest" album

It's just a post-Montie tripfag, ignore him.

everything garbo except the heads
Anthony is just a supreme pleb with too much time on his hands

how does anthony listen to music for a living and still be a pleb

(You)
(You)

Well no shit that's my fucking point.

It's alright. The whole trilogy from Volume 4 to Sabotage is cool.

Fine fuck it, who am I kidding? They have 6 good albums.

You're embarrassing yourself again

Most if not all music critics are turboplebs

>Fine fuck it, who am I kidding? They have 6 good albums.
lmao
kill yourself

>black sabbath seems a pleb choice

Music criticism in general is a joke.

Nice job you're confirming that Sabbath fans are nostalgic retards who can't argue for shit

what nostalgia

I mean, GY!BE are the big anchor weighing that pretty good Top 5 list down into the mud, but aren't we forgetting the music critic with the actual worst taste?

Scaruffi has the worst taste of all
The only good stuff he likes are Tim Buckley and Minutemen

This was practically turned into a "shit on GYBE" thread...

lol black sabbath is amazing

Gy!be are almost as shitty as christgau's reviews

"muh classik rawk muh heaby meal le godspeed le shite ecksdee"
This is the kind of shit I'm talking about

I'm fairly sure it's the same one or two guys samefagging to hell.

yo this trip is legit going through some personal trauma i think we should write him a card

(you)

>gf

lmao he's an autistic gook, his gf is his hand

The dadrock anger is strong

Shouldn't you be busy circlejerking over Zeppelin?

>"muh classik rawk muh heaby meal le godspeed le shite ecksdee"
why do people still do this type of irony?

I do agree that Scaruffi is also a massive delusional pleb for having Beefheart and Velvet Underground in his Top 5, but at the very least he has Robert Wyatt, The Doors, and Faust to salvage it instead of stuff like fucking Chuck Berry and New York Dolls.

literally every single person on RYM has better taste than that

The Doors are complete garbage, dude.

>no swans
>no death grips
>no kendrick

fake

Seriously, I bet it's some insecure faggot with shit taste. I don't care what anyone says, but Godspeed has a perfect discography to me. I'll always defend them no matter what.

why do you try to be funny

how cute, the pathetic autist is trying to le btfo people XD

Says who?

Same here my man. GYBE are legendary to me and always will be a blessing to music. They haven't released anything below a 7 so far

idk i'm not really even trying

Salty

You don't even know what you're angry at anymore

pleb

s/t, Strange Days and LA Woman are all the shit you wrongass motherfucker

master of reality still sounds amazing, at least to me.

I'm not angry, I'm trying to have a proper musical discussion and you idiots keep derailing it with ad hominem.

Either discuss the merits of the bands he had in his top 5 list or stop posting

Master of Reality is incredible and is a stroke of genius, considering the cultural context. The crushing production and the pioneering riffs make for a fantastic show.

Not bad except for GY!BE. Kinda disappointed in that. Surprised he's such a Sabbath fan though. I knew he liked them but didn't think that much.

>Contrarian: The Post, The Movie, The Game

>black sabbath seems a pleb choice

Music has existed for 106 years. He's only been reviewing it for 6. Surely his current favorite may be overshadowed by his past favs.

10/10

samefags...

>GYBE are legendary to me and always will be a blessing to music
tibbs phaedra

I thought you hated GY!BE. Or was it Mogwai? I don't know, I just remember there was one band that you really hated

GY!BE is one of the blandest bands I've ever heard

I agree they are pretty mediocre, but I would rather have a critic say they enjoyed a band who composed songs such as Touch Me or Peace Frog over some sexual predator with a song like My Ding-a-Ling.

>I'm trying to have a proper musical discussion
calling something pleb shit is somehow music discussion?

>ad hominem
That is all you do though

>Same here my man. GYBE are legendary to me and always will be a blessing to music. They haven't released anything below a 7 so far

Holy cringe loool

my sides

why does every single retarded GYBE fan act like that?

>black sabbath seems a pleb choice
>seems
It's a trick. They are viewed out of context for a number of reasons these days. But the first 6 or so Sabbath albums are absolutely amazing.

>implying he's wrong

joy division, he tried to make it into a meme

needless to say he actually listened to it once and doesnt hate it anymore and gave it 4.5 on rym or something like that

The fact that the "Classic" band he chooses to include in his favs is Sabbath as opposed to something like Zeppelin or Floyd says a lot actually. I feel I understand him better.

I don't get how someone could feel this way. Explain to me how GY!BE is bland

>Music has existed for 106 years.
Kill yourself pls

The samefagging continues...

>1910: music begins

Hi samefag

What? GYBE are in my top 5. Don't really care for Mogwai though

I was just discussing the musical merits of Black Sabbath. You?

Stop this forced meme. I listened to JD way before I came to this board and I disliked them then.

how so?

>Explain to me how GY!BE is bland
Their music consists of long sustained droning on relatively simple progressions for long periods of time. I love GY!BE but it's not lost on me why a lot of people cannot into them.

this thread

try harder proge shitter, you're the one samefagging

>is a fan of a band's music
>likes their music
Woah what the fuck dude, why does every fan act like that dude

>When your impersonating a tripfag and your holding a better discussion about music critics than they are

pls

>impersonating a tripfag
It's like a pitiful act on top of a pitiful act. Why would you even do this?

Because people don't have any fucking patience. You have to understand that ambiance in their case creates an atmosphere, and that their songs build to amazingly climax. Give me one song that seems bland to you... Because you know that's not true.
