the wit & wisdom of mr snrub

Back in the summer of '94 when my parents took the television away because my sister and i were spending too much time wasting away in front of it, i fell in love with the next best mass media outlet, the radio. i spent just about every day of that summer reading and listening to the radio, mainly the latter. the local "alternative" station's playlist was pure bliss to me. it was a flood of weezer, smashing pumpkins, nirvana, hole, green day etc. Every song that came on put me in an altered state in which i completely forgot that i was a beanpole star wars geek that no girl would ever talk to.
Then came hootie.
The first time i heard "i only wanna be with you" all i could think was "why is my beloved 106.1 the Zephyr playing this shit? this isn't real music." I wrote it off to the DJ trying out new stuff and figured nobody on earth would request such a dismal lump of sound (this was back when i thought every song that came on was requested save a few of the dj's picks). boy was i wrong. every couple of hours for weeks on end my sense of bliss was shattered by Hootie and his merry gang of gatecrashers. it was really unbearable how quickly that song and a few of their other shoddy attempts at worthwhile music permeated the airwaves. i had never hated anything with as much passion as i hated hootie. luckily after a few hellish months Mr. Rucker and co. dropped off the face of the planet.
and i thought i'd never have to hear that shit again after the near universal backlash against hootie saturation but unfortunately some cock-addled marketing exec never got over how much he liked that soulless song and decided to put it in a car commercial that's now in heavy rotation.

Voting for "Hey Ya" because it's like the one song that's guaranteed to get an "I love this song!" if you play it in a crowded room. Like, everyone enjoys it and gets into it and sings along to it. You can't really say that about "Crazy." Both amazing single-of-the-decade-worthy songs though.

You know, when I scroll back and forth past that post, it looks the computer screen's getting all pinchy.

The REAL album of the decade, rock or otherwise, is Quebec by Ween.

Hoo boy I fucking HATE No Limit and every one of its shitty fucking assembly-line rappers. Gimme Snoop or Em over them ANY day of the week. At least they have some fucking charisma!!

And "Make 'Em Say Unngh!" is, without a doubt, THE WORST "HIT" RAP SINGLE OF ALL TIME!!!

Punk-pop of the late 1990s was a good genre

Mmmm-hmmm. Good and terrible.

Who the hell is the Animal Collective?

lololol classic. i played the "who???" joke when my roomie mentioned going to see animal collective last week, but i was only joking. mr snrub is probably being sincere and that is AWESOME.

There's like fifty Beach Boys songs worse than Student Demonstration Time!!

What a piece of shit. Compilation albums are the fucking worst. All the great Nirvana songs to choose from... AND THEY PICKED "VERSE CHORUS VERSE"!?!?!?

― Mr. Snrub, Friday, October 29, 2004 2:14 PM Bookmark

that's a good song

is that the 'you will make him happy' one? that slays....

lady gaga gets a free pass from hipsters and britney spears doesn't because "poker face" and "just dance" are much much better songs (and better suited for the dancefloor, which is key) than fucking "hit me baby one more time" which is music for ten-year-olds.

plus, lady gaga sings about fucking all the time!! (even if she's really really ugly in real life)

― Mr. Snrub, Friday, August 7, 2009 9:30 PM (Yesterday)

on a board where everyone else has fallen off snrub keeps bringin it day after day

that lady gaga thread is a trainwreck in the biggest way

Lazy bastards. I'm sick and fucking tired of everybody taking five years to make a new album. Is it really that fucking hard to make fifty minutes of listenable music??

snrub on massive attack (<3)

I am sad that this show was not mentioned much in the "Best TV shows of the '00s" thread.

It looks like you're legally free to make a move anywhere except Arizona, California, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, North Dakota, Oregon, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Wisconsin, or Wyoming.
Good luck, Snrub.

nobody fucking liked Arcade Fire in the first place!! Except for that idiot at Pitchfork of course. Sure, people may have "tried to get into it," but that was it. Same goes for Hercules and Love Affair and the Junior Boys.

from upthread:

The problem with the Internet is that it gives everyone the illusion that they have something interesting to contribute to the world, when in reality something like 99% of the people out there have absolutely nothing interesting to contribute to the world.

OK I'm only halfway through my first listen to "Ante Up" and already it's got to be one of the most annoying songs I've ever heard in my life.

I don't know where else to ask this but is that "l0u1s jagg3r" and if not is l0u1s jagg3r a real poster and what is he notorious for. I read ILX a lot but I feel like I'm being punked whenever I hear him referenced? I would ask on the main board but I don't want to cause a dust up. Thanks in advance

What in God’s name do you people hear in this generic shitmusic? Just the blandest pop music I’ve heard in quite some time with high school poetry lyrics.

has to be one of the last times anybody mentioned against me!'s "new wave" album

"transgender dysphoria blues" came out in jan 2014

laura jane grace was already out by oct 2013, though, right? was against me! that well-known a band in '13, or was "new wave" being on this list more of a "oh wow we should really give this stuff another listen" thing?

New Wave was Spin's #1 album of 2007, fwiw

good to know. i was kind of out of it for most of the '00s and didn't really know what was going on. took a gap(dy) decade.
