Hot Take/ Musical Confession Thread!

Woah, easy buddy. I got thrown onto the barbeque for saying this on the old forum.

For coming into the hip hop thread with this take. Its perfectly suited for a thread like this

Audiophiles are the worst type of hipster.

People who claim music was better in their day are the 2nd worst type of hipster.

Usually they are the same person

Here’s another one:

Skits in rap music make it almost unlistenable on vinyl.

Best so far. Will update as i progress

Prog is public school srseholes making boring music to show off their musicianship rather than writing songs for people to enjoy.

Grunge is universally terrible (I like Pumpkins and Nirvana but people tell me they’re not grunge so yeah all the rest is trash).

Brian Eno has destroyed the music of every artist he’s worked with after Bowie...

Id say Brain Eno made U2 listenable and made a great Album with James.

Well I kinda feel this thread is not what this forum is about, people coming together to share music and respect other people's taste in music....I'm fully going to go in and say my two cents


Prog rock is the catalyst that broke open the music industry I like to thank pink Floyd for that , one of the top 5 most influential bands in history.

Post rock is the best genre in the entire music industry

And unless your a punk band if you can't make a song greater than 6 minutes you're not a real band

Overall I agree, but also a thread like this is fun and noone should take anything said in here too seriously

100% agree just glad everyone is on the page..

But I am serious about bands that are three minute hit it and quit it musicians

Miles Davis is eh

This thread is great hahahaha

Kendrick is a good rapper but not in the top 20 ever, let alone up there for GOAT.

Aside from this, this one hurt a tad, but it came from Clint so I'm not surprised

Yoko Ono does not deserve any of the ire and derision that has been directed her way over the decades, and a lot of the hatred for her as a person was fueled by sexism and racism.

FIFY

This isn’t a hot take. It’s the truth.

 

[HiFi Guy]

Kanye West hasn't made a good album.

CCR was the greatest garage band ever. Still not as good as The Beatles or the Stones.

Can we at least agree that she sounds like a tortured parrot?

I can see your point. The majority of skits are kinda annoying. But when they’re done right such as on the College Dropout, or even MadGibbs’s Bandana. they can make the experience more memorable and fun.

Nope!

as per @goodoohuru request...it's always bittersweet to move this from the 'new music friday' fred...

Appleseed Cast's The Fleeting Light of Impermanence is EXCELLENT

Thom Yorke I like quite a bit

New Black Keys is fairly lacklustre; arguably a better record than the Raconteurs, but only just

Hot Chip is classic Hot Chip; a couple of great tunes and a bunch of wishy-wash filler

 

[ChristoBee]

Here is my hot take : "hot takes" are just glorified wannabe elitists opinions.

I'll have you know that there is not a single part of my take that is wannabe at all~ Hmrph...

Nah Boy and War are their best two albums then came Eno and the terrible BIG music! I only really like the singles after that point...
