Unpopular Musical Opinions - Page 87

Decayed Rhapsody · 07.30.2009, 10:45 AM

I like Vivian Girls' newest song. They've handled their "15 minutes of fame" better than all of the aforementioned hype bands and actually try and change up their narrow sonic palette. And they're still playing tiny shows and seem like down to earth people. Even if they apparently hate all electronic music.

I triedddd to like Grizzly Bear. I kept telling myself "not everything needs to rock all the time," but their stuff just bores the tits off me. Like Sigur Ros, I need to be in a really specific mood to listen to them.

vivian girls just rule. i listen to their stuff all the time.

Rob Instigator · 07.30.2009, 11:52 AM

the new sigur ros stuff is horrible. They started writing "songs."

I feel like I have to give opinions about the things mentioned in this whole page

I like Wavves (the new demo is sick, have you heard it ? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zF0kL5ySZR8)
I fucking hate Fleet Foxes
I find Grizzly Bear overrated, though they have a few neat tunes - Two Weeks, for instance. Maybe I haven't listened to them enough to get it.
And I see no major problem with Pitchfork

atsonicpark · 07.31.2009, 12:21 AM

I'm not going to bother listening to that Wavves demo, even though I like him. Dude's already released two full-length albums in like 6 months. Last time I got into a band and they released 500 albums in the same year, I quickly lost interest and haven't heard any of the last 4 releases (Jesu). Of course, that doesn't explain why I still listen to Charalambides, but you know, it's not like I seek out every release anymore...

...WHOA! THERE'S A NEW TOM CARTER, 5 NEW LIMITED EDITION CHRISTINA CARTER, AND A NEW CHARALAMBIDES LIVE SHOW FROM 1993 DIGITALLY REMASTERED AND RE-RELEASED, ALL OUT AN HOUR AGO?

Rob Instigator · 07.31.2009, 08:40 AM

hahahah!

808s and Heartbreak was one of my favorite albums of last year

Kim Gordon, wihtout the help of her Sonic cohorts, makes hopelessly boring and/or pretentious music.
SYR5, Inherit, anyone?

Torn Curtain · 08.01.2009, 03:47 AM

I actually liked SYR 5 when I listened to it (but I did it only once).

Torn Curtain · 08.01.2009, 03:51 AM

Unpopular here :

SYR4 sucks, SYR5 doesn't.

Toilet & Bowels · 08.01.2009, 07:44 AM

vivian girls are boring. boring live and boring on record.
wavves is boring and uses fuzzy production to mask his otherwise very normal sounding music.

08.01.2009, 07:49 AM

Wavves have only got a couple of good songs. I can see them being called great by Pavement fans, and what would they know?

automatic bzooty · 08.01.2009, 11:41 AM

I am a Pavement fan and I think Wavves are booooooooooriiiiiiiing. But I love Vivian Girls. Um.

Sonic Youth 37 · 08.01.2009, 11:41 AM

Vivian Girls rule all in the modern 'lo-fi/indie' world.

Shifty Prophet · 08.01.2009, 12:02 PM

The only Grizzly Bear record I like is Yellow House. The new one is shit I cannot stand and the first one was just ''meh''. Yellow House however reminds me of the beach boys making a record in the middle of the woods during fall/winter inside a small cabin.

So if you don't like The Beach Boys, the woods, the fall, the winter, or any combination of the previous, you may not like Yellow House.

SuperCreep · 08.01.2009, 02:17 PM

I really fucking hate Wavves and Vivian Girls.

There.

joe11121 · 08.01.2009, 02:21 PM

I like Wavves, but the music gets tiring after a while, I need breaks from it. I haven't listened to them in months.
