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!

And all his bands look like they belong to the emo genre.

I would be surprised if you had any f**king clue what emotive hardcore "looked" like.

That's the thing... no one has the right to sit here and judge any genre and act like they have the most knowledge in music.

I don't think anyone is assuming such a "right." The intent here is to find people that are passionate about music, have a refined taste (in that they have done enough searching that their list is personal and interesting), and can intelligently discuss music. Of course, to an extent, there is a deal of personal bias, but this isn't something that should be taken so seriously. If you actually read the thread, you might have already understood these things.

But for f**k sake, this wanker from hicksville is sittin here tryin to tell us all music except his genre sucks.

Genre? There are many genres represented here.
Your evaluation of the situation really highlights your ignorance of it.

I bet I mosh better than this retard. =\

Slam dance better? That doesn't make any sense. That whole idea is entirely counter-intuitive. Moshing us to be about chaos - indiscriminate chaos. Kids shuffled around in a pit and harmlessly bounced off of one another (though we all know it's not exactly harmless). Being better at that doesn't really make much sense. You seem to be suggesting some sort of machismo superiority here... do you like target the kids who dress differently than yourself and elbow in the face? If so, very uncool. That's the kind of shit the ruined hardcore, and has been ruining rock music ever since the 1970's.

I just sat there and read 2 pages... all he did was make fun of the titles people listed AND slammed them for it. And the only thing that's ruining rock music is rock itself. The originality of it no longer exists. Rock is pretty much dead. Don't get me wrong, it's a great genre but it's pretty much dead. Talk about beatin a dead horse.
