If you're on this board for anything other than shitposting, you 100% are a drone. Why? Why is it like this? Why does the music board have the worst taste in music on this website? Why are canonical, entry level albums the only music that gets discussed here?
>Why are canonical, entry level albums the only music that gets discussed here? It's hard to discuss something that other people havent listened to
John Foster
>Why? Who knows.
You're right though, this is easily the shittiest fucking board on this website.
Caleb Murphy
entry level stuff is more popular which is why more people talk about it obviously. Other stuff gets discussed here as well but those threads die fast because only like 3 people post in them.
Xavier Bennett
That's Susan
Connor Martinez
>Why are canonical, entry level albums the only music that gets discussed here?
Because the albums more people know will gt more replies because more people know them to comment on them.
If no one knows the albums they won't get replies because no one knows them to comment on them.
Fucking rocket science, how does it work.
Jackson Peterson
So none of you are actually consuming that much music at all.
You subscribed to The Needle Drop and became infatuated with the idea of being ~the music guy~, but you just listen to the same shit as everyone else.
Fucking lol.
Gabriel Nguyen
>other than shitposting
Anyone over the age of 20 is shitposting
Ian Collins
Nobody said that you retarded fucking spunkbubbble.
Wyatt Morales
yeah let me start up an esquivel general my dude I'm sure there are tons of esquivel fans here
Chase Powell
You're missing the point People come here to talk about music If you try to talk about something and no one's listened to it, it won't get a lot of attention Since it gets no attention, it ends up looking like only Sup Forumscore albums are talked about This isn't explaining what I do it's just logic
Josiah Perez
most of Sup Forums doesn't listen to kpop because they're afraid it might be good
John Allen
>cornered music babby gee whiz uh why don't you go back to /r/Music or something ppl >generalposting >good You have to be eighteen or older to post here. This is the music board, no? A community for people with a penchant for music consumption.
You would really think taste would intersect in a way that wasn't so overwhelmingly surface level and vapid if any significant fraction of you weren't image obsessed retards.
Andrew Fisher
You know you can leave whenever you want right
Samuel Anderson
whew Sure there are intersections but the point is that there's so much music that those intersections are small and great when they happen but get overwhelmed by people talking about shit everyone knows. You're really pushing the whole "I'm a patrician and you're all plebs" narrative but really it just comes down to people wanting to be able to talk to others about shit they like and if everyone on this board likes Loveless then it's easy to connect with someone about liking Loveless so you'll post about that not the obscure Latin pop album you found in the dollar bin at a record store
Henry Rodriguez
Which one of my top 25 played do you want to discuss?
You've heard them all right? You aren't entry-level right?
John Sanders
>wah! leave!
Yes, I am aware, little fucking bitch.
Zachary Allen
So why are you still here being discontent
Is there any particular album you would like to talk about, if I haven't heard it yet I'll give it a listen and we can make this thread more positive ^_^
Joshua Wood
WRONG
here are some of my favorite albums
Cooper Sanders
>everyone else does but I don't >still trying to flex lol get outta here
Robert Hernandez
>Jamiroquai
Austin Smith
is this the fabled Sup Forums brand self deprecative post irony hehe xd
Jackson Moore
So you don't want to discuss music then?
I'm hurt user, I reached and you shot me down. Rude.
Are great yeah
Jeremiah Nguyen
there's nothing wrong with jamiroquai, even at cheesiest the music is still good and well crafted.
Hunter Thomas
Okay napolean dynamite
Robert King
I like to intersperse dense sarcasm / 'irony' shitposting with active hostility every once in a while.
This board is horrible and everyone deserves to know.
Henry Roberts
OP is trolling. There is no reason to continue. You could replace the words in the OP with "movies" or "video games" and post it on any other board on Sup Forums and it would reach bump limit. Stop listening.
Anthony Bell
Okay I think everyone has already realized that most boards on this site are horrible but is there any music you'd like to talk about with me
Nathaniel Gomez
>LALALALALALALA
Jaxon Butler
Sup Forums is just a clique like you saw in high school, conforming nonconformists. Spend 3 months here and you'll realize every single album ever posted all falls under one category of very specific certain genres/music type
Hunter Roberts
>I like to intersperse dense sarcasm / 'irony' shitposting with active hostility every once in a while.
There has to be more to life than this Why are we all stuck here Where do we go?
Tyler Richardson
these all fall under a specific type of rym approved branch, this is nothing but a slightly extended mucore/fantano-core
William Taylor
can we play a game can I list very separate but popular Sup Forums albums and you tell me the tying thread
merzbow pulse demon and kenny lamar to pimp a butterfly
Adam Johnson
Sure! This was gr8. : ) >implying Consciousness is maladaptive.
Daniel Walker
> a specific type of rym approved branch
Link?
Thomas Martinez
you're an idiot, I really liked the new Q-pup album but literally no one else her will have listened to it because he's an incredibly small artist, so how or why would i discuss him here?
Aaron Richardson
Terrible bait, even for an anonymous imageboard. Your post has to make even a MILD amount of sense, it's not asking much.
Andrew Rogers
I've been meaning to get into noise for a while since I like a lot of genres that take influence to it but haven't found a good entry point yet, this seems interesting though so I'll give it a shot
Thanks for posting!
Jaxson Edwards

Jacob Hernandez
I haven't posted in this thread yet, but this album sounds pretty cool. Is it, or are you brutally memeing me?
Jace Lee
Just post links to Youtube, Spotify, or a download link so people can listen and title your thread to something like " What's your opinion on blank" and give your opinion.
Jace Brown
>specific type of rym approved branch >specific
Link?
Jacob Sanders
Alternatively force your album as a meme and eventually discussion will start up, unfortunately you run the risk of discussion being swallowed by shitposting but eh
Justin Adams
>everyone else does but I don't We're talking about a bell curve cancer. It defeats the purpose of forum if you can't interface with a community about good / lesser known things you've consumed.
This is completely non-point. You are welcome, my man. It is sincerely great. Jianhong is one of my favorites.
Noah Reed
OP implied he wasn't entry-level so he has heard ALL of these.
Nathaniel Robinson
>presumptions >hurt feelings Out. Fucking pussy.
Hudson Turner
Well for starters, those albums/artists are all RYM-approved in ratings alone
General umbrella of anything that is safe and unexciting/uncontroversial when it comes to rym/mu/lastfm. I can just tell if an album will be rated highly off the album cover and the genre listing, regarding of the quality of the music itself.
>anything with "post" in the genre, postrock, postpunk, etc >any vintage folk >"world music" >anything with "art" in the genre i.e. artpunk, artrock, w/e >traditional folk [gamelean, or nigger trad] >anything with "experimental" in the genre or descriptor >jazz, generally free jazz, and bop jazz >pop that is either vintage, foreign, or preferably both: soul-pop, MPB/samba >"patrician" spins of more conventional genres they are based off: jungle, drum and bass, no wave, drone >anything melodramatic/"nhilistic" in descriptor listing, ESPECIALLY country/folkrock with that heavy melodrama >anything japanese, generally under the same tired and boring "shoegaze/postrock/post-punk influence"
After using RYM for a few years, it's the same thing everywhere. I genuinely am at the sad point where the radio has more novelty than what RYM/lastfm/mu likes/approves of.
see above
Andrew Walker
>It defeats the purpose of forum if you can't interface with a community about good / lesser known things you've consumed. >tfw you're right I need to leave this board immediately.
Zachary Garcia
You tryna catch Moby Dick with a net that big boy?
Jace Butler
no you dense fucking idiot, the fact we all talk about a similar pool of music is a natural result of having a forum with lots of people. Every person here has an individual taste and listens to albums that most people wouldn't know, but the albums that are most popular will generate the most discussion and dominate the board. There are specific threads dedicated to lesser know bands, recs, and sharing, but the rest of the board will of course gravitate to more popular bands and albums because if I go "hey what did you guys think of this new Q-pup album" no one is gonna have any idea what the fuck i'm talking about and my thread would die.
This board is about music, its not a "who can find the fucking artists with the least plays on last fm" competition, of course we are gonna talk most about the accepted canon
Austin Davis
what radio are you listening to
Ian Thomas
except you can, it's called a sharethread, rec thread, genre specific thread, etc, this board is about general music discussion not an obscurity jerk off
Oliver Ward
>I need to leave this board immediately.
I disagree with you both in that I've been able to force discussion over some obscure albums I've liked, generals are good for it or just posting at the right times
But overall you're right where the hell do we go though I'm seriously about to make a tumblr/twitter and try to connect with people via that
Cooper Adams
I doubt the average music listener has heard alll 1001 of those albums.
Hell, most Sup Forumstants haven't even heard all of albums on the general essentials chart.
Chase Robinson
You asked for a broad generalization, and I gave you one. like 95% of everything positively rated falls under that umbrella.
None of those greentexts are applicable to any of my albums, wheres that specific link?
Nolan Parker
its not an accomplishment or surprising feat I don't really know what you were trying to even do aside from state the very obvious fact that there's going to be overlap in tastes among a community built around sharing and developing one another's tastes
Matthew Reed
I'd like to think that discussion centers around these "canonical" albums because those are the albums most people on here have in common - they're not what people on this board listen to exclusively.
Carson Bell
thank you I have been wanting to get into broken beat for a while
Lucas Parker
le eclectic taste face
Austin Perry
No, fuck this board.
I'm done just throwing shit out into the void with the vague hope that I could emotionally connect over something we both enjoy.
Waste time uploading music just so someone I don't even know could maybe click on a link and get around to listening to it three months later?
No
FUCK. THAT.
Fuck Sup Forums >But overall you're right where the hell do we go though I'm seriously about to make a tumblr/twitter I'm on Twitter
I've found music people I can talk to. I would suggest that.
Gabriel Russell
Why do you expect a clearly autistic person to understand this
Lincoln Gutierrez
>didn't even read the thread Out
Carson Lee
nigga most of this is in the same genre umbrella fuck outta here with your basic inferiority complex ass
Grayson Mitchell
>its not an accomplishment or surprising feat No, i didnt say it was.
but it becomes very tiring when even anything more obscure is almost always negatively rated unless it falls under one of those categories. >None of those greentexts are applicable to any of my albums
>turntable music >drone >soul/jazz fusion
come on man. dont kid yourself
Ian White
I'm just gonna repeat what I already said since it didn't seem to register >We're talking about a bell curve cancer. It defeats the purpose of forum if you can't interface with a community about good / lesser known things you've consumed.
Why would anyone come to this board just to discuss the exact same music day in / day out?
Carter Edwards
>but it becomes very tiring when even anything more obscure is almost always negatively rated unless it falls under one of those categories.
what have you been trying to discuss
Noah Jones
>turntable music >drone >soul/jazz fusion
You didn't say any of that and I don't listen to drone and still no link to my specific taste. I'm beginning to think you're telling me porkies you cheeky lad.
Thomas Jenkins
YEAH
FUCK Sup Forums
FUCK ALL OF YOU
FUCK ME
Angel Martin
These
Fuck Sup Forums
Ian Price
see you tomorrow
Oliver Ward
Your anger is so misplaced idk why you think your recommendations deserve to be listened to by everyone on Sup Forums everyone has albums that they want to share with people and most people find ways to share them and get others to like them if they're smart about it get some social skills and stop being so fucking entitled jesus
Leo Miller
>I'm obsessive and can't control my habits >everyone is obsessive and can't control their habits
This board is a complete waste of time. There would be nothing accomplished in coming back.
Hope you're having fun! I'm not.
Samuel Thomas
>literal fucking tribe mentality are you serious
fuck this gay ass board
Kayden Rivera
So why'd you make this post?
Eli White
So why do you keep coming back If we can all be honest and answer this question maybe we can all escape too
Asher Miller
>It is sincerely great. Jianhong is one of my favorites. I'm listening now, it's pretty cool! Thanks for the inadvertent recommendation.
Christian Martin
Obviously it's because you can't discuss music you haven't listened to - What's discussed it what most people are listening to
For example: I haven't once gotten to talk about Archers of Loaf on here, but it's one of my favorite bands
Blake Gonzalez
I'm not really into noise but I'll give it a listen just for you user
Ethan Williams
This is my first time on this board in around six months. If you routinely come back when you yourself hate it, that's on you. >no don't leave!! >see you tomorrow LOL It's classic Stockholm syndrome.
You know this board is awful yet you stay for the security in identity it brings you. Pathetic.
Ethan Rogers
You didn't answer the question Why'd you make this post I know you said it was to add some real ness to the shitposting and irony or whatever but your point is bland and has been posted more than any Sup Forumscore album Idgaf about you coming back you're just a salty user I'm asking why you made this post
Christian Smith
I don't think anyone considers being a 4channer of any kind to be a good identity trait to use for mental security
Hudson Russell
Not OP You'd be wrong. It is a form of identity. You're familiar with the board culture and you know exactly what is being discussed everyday. You're in the know and everyone likes it on some subconscious subconscious level.
Andrew Howard
You're welcome!
Aaron Robinson
Oh ok is OP gone then? Too bad, dude was fun to fuck with
Idk about most people but I come to this board for sharethreads and something to do when I don't have anything to do since I'd rather look at shitposts about Kanye and maybe something interesting than see what my aunt shared on facebook Anyone who identifies with this board past liking some of the music it likes needs to get their shit together
Ryan Flores
>Anyone who identifies with this board past liking some of the music it likes needs to get their shit together

Tyler Watson
35 minutes in, this is p dope. I think you're forgetting how young and new a large portion of this boad is. Many of these high schoolers are just getting into music and follow charts that other anons or old tripfags made and work through them to completion instead of branching off once they've developed the skills to explore on their own. There's fine discussion taking place it's just smaller and you have to work for it because nothing worthwhile is easy. Bruh, I've seen a few threads where people ask why AoL isn't Sup Forumscore. Sorry you've missed them.
Eli Wilson
>There's fine discussion taking place it's just smaller and you have to work for it because nothing worthwhile is easy. are you talking about /daily/
Jackson Moore
I literally just come here when looking for more music. Mainly the metal threads, but the board has also helped me discover genres I never would have known existed without it.
Cameron Perez
by your own standards either you're a drone or this is a shitpost (it's both)
Adam Cox
because the demographics of this board are slightly intellectual depressed 20somethings, and they share similar music tastes
Camden Gonzalez
>20somethings
Average age here is 16. Look through any ''when did you arrive'' threads and majority say when they were 14/15yo.
Brody Barnes
I've been listening to shitloads of dopethrone recently mixed in with some Behemoth during my Diablo 2 sessions. I don't see the two discussed here that much at all.
Christopher Edwards
We all listen to different music but all congregate to a minority of albums deemed 'Sup Forumscore' Sup Forums faggot
Jaxson Lewis
people listen to music?
Josiah Green
Not really. I'm talking more about engaging people in chart threads, generals when they're still under 100 posts or the more /soc/ type threads with more unique charts or ones that resemble your own in the deeper cuts. It's honestly more about talking to people than finding a good thread. I'm 22 and I regularly old as shit here.
