How can a country be so devoid of musical talent?

How can a country be so devoid of musical talent?

[Justin Ward]

The only one i know is the tranny that looks like reviewbrah and she sucks

[Connor Taylor]

you have a bad opinion

[Ryder Ramirez]

our small population aside, we don't really have a significant art culture. few people here consume high art, and students aren't encouraged to create it.

i'd call it a tragedy, but this is norm around the world. thriving art scenes reflect the confluence of a number of chance variables, and they're not all that common. if you look at the US, for example, you'll find that maybe 85% of its significant art arises from small pockets of people around the coasts and the great lakes. the rest of the country is artistically irrelevant.

[Isaac Foster]

Dunedin Sound is the pinnacle of indie music though.

kiwi here. you're pretty much right. it sucks.

i like this album though, even if it's more a pretentious expression of teen emotions than the pinnacle of musical talent. from the same town as me and i knew some of his friends when i was in high school. it's funny to me that it got so popular.
