STP were never too famous and are far of being one of my fav. but you're telling shit saying that they were pop ( or mainstream) you can't compare , they could have changed their style when grunge/alt. rock dead ( to the masses) that's the case of Incubus and No Doubt. And YYY art??? OMG ![]() |

Designed to sound like the best-sellers at the time, by very definition they were mainstream. And they did change when their brand of mimicry was no longer as lucrative: it's called Velvet Revolver. Quote:
You could take those same features and use them to describe one of the most exhilarating, innovative, irresistible, sublime and rockin' albums of all time: the unsurpassable Cut. 41 years after the Pop & Pies & Fun manifesto, 36 years after Forest Hills' finest first blew up their amps at a certain Bowery dive, 20 years after "punk broke" and 3 years after SY picked up the "Goodbye Talent" headline hurled at them by the NME and proudly stamped it over the SYR7 cover, it's hugely appalling that some STILL miss the point in a calamitous fashion by citing technique as a sine qua non condition for rock and roll. And as for your reactionary dismissal of "pop", fuckin' A I wants me some pop, junior! From Dusty Springfield to Best Coast, Brenton Wood to Prince, Spector to Blondie, Randy Newman to The Go-Betweens to Jenny Lewis and beyond, the amazing musicarchitecture contained in each glorious minute of the greatest pop songs remains —just like blues changes on one hand and the most daring avant-garde on the other— a fundamental force in art and nature and a paramount reason to just get up in the goddamn morning.

stone temple pilots are pretty bad, but liking them isn't anywhere near as bad as not liking serge gainsbourg

Frank Zappa, Serge Gainsbourg, Scott Walker, Jeff Buckley, Radiohead - none of them are going anywhere near my playlist anytime soon.

I did not directly compare the two bands, certainly not in the pedestrian way you suggest. I brought The Slits up in order to convey the absurdity of characterizing elements like "teenage vocals" and lack of conventional musical proficiency as dismal flaws when they can indeed be applied to a masterpiece. If in lieu of lazily misreading my words you had responded judiciously —at the very least saying "Whoa, you did not just compare The Slits to the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, did you?"— we could have for once actually had a goddamn conversation going in this fucking place instead of this permanently frustrating horseshit climate where almost everyone is constantly flying off the handle at the slightest divergent opinion - which, by the way, is seldom expressed rationally, with thought-provoking fundaments, with enough lucid weight to merit being posted in the first place. "BWAARRGHH RATHER RIPPED SUCKED! THEY DON'T DO WHAT I WANT THEM TO DO! BWWAAAAAAARRRRRGGHHH!!". A real charming operation, this board. Then again, it's my fault anyway for breaking my own Do Not Engage commandment. I now go back to my natural bittorrent announcements/bootlegs sharing/etc. habitat...

I just landed here to read how the people was freaking out about flying to Brazil. And I've found people discussing about not flying pilots. Go figure.

That's really dumb. Brazil - my country - is the country with the biggest racial diversity you will ever find, due to so many waves of immigration throughout the years. Unfortunately, prejudice here is still directed towards black people, as we have a very sad history of slavery. That is a sensitive issue, not some kind of a joke. |

SPANISH? Are you dumb for real? We speak Portuguese in Brazil. And a big percentage of the population speaks more than one language (English, French, etc.). Is that the case where you come from? I guess not. |

I hear Portuguese is a dead language, like Latin...or Ebonics.
