Official Music Elitists Club, To be used in conjunction with Official Film Snobs Club Options

[AThorpedo]

Come one, come all! In the same vein as the Official Film Snobs Club, exclusionist attitudes come free with every top 20 favorite albums or artists list posted! If you feel like you should be entitled to tell people to never listen to music again, then apply. As someone that has been telling people to listen to better music for years now, I will let you know how qualified you aren't to push your taste in music onto others. I hated your favorite band before you knew they existed; I know what I'm doing.

If I like the cut of your jib, you can tell people what bands to listen to and why the music they listen to is just recycled, trite bullshit. We can also exchange soulseek usernames. <3

So, as I said, post your Top 20 favorite ALBUMS or ARTISTS. I'm not terribly interested in hearing about your favorite songs. Chances are those change all the time. Artists and albums offer something a bit more consistent.

We will be like a bowel irritation with a dope record collection. 1 2 3! 1 2 3!

My music taste greatly differs. from yours

The optimist in me wants to believe that this list a joke. The realist in me knows that it's just a list of "auto-no"s and you are completely serious. One thing's for sure, we do have very different taste in music. I don't listen to music that is unfathomably boring and unimaginative.

Hmm... Interesting. I'll give it a shot, I suppose.

I would have agreed more with this list a few years ago when I had a greater interest in indie. That interest has long since faded, though. Thusly, a lot of this list I don't particularly hate or even dislike, I just wouldn't care to listen to them again; I used to listen to The Trail of Dead, The Decemberists, Neutral Milk Hotel, Owen, and Sufjan Stevens.

I have to say, though, mewithoutyou is probably one of my most hated bands. There are a few bands on this list that I haven't heard of (Psalters, Anathallo, One Amazin' Kid, Stars) but if any on thing killed this list for me, it'd be mewithoutyou.

So, um, send this list to me three years ago and I'll let you in.
