lol yeah the "I don't know about all those dance genres it were all fields in my day" comments on that thread are pretty eyerollworthy.

that is the sort of thread that only gets traction on a laughably moribund music forum. ooh yes let us discuss electro-swing and landfill indie rather than listen to the literal zillion great things coming out every month

oh hang on, I see there's a new Spoon song, activate activate

xp - can't you find a better msg board to fuck off to?

Keep going and this really will be the full boring-bastard greyscape you desire tbh

jazz it up if you care so much

xp - please spare us the chord counting and go bore someone else with that on Reddit or whatever.

what thread? lol

It's actually ok

Maligned Genres aka "I like everything except..."

chord counting isn't illegal but it's frowned upon

in reno they have guys who break your jazz hands for doing it

The Jazz Hands Mafia is in Branson, MO

throwing extremely blurry gang signs

Lol @ jazz hands discourse

We must protect thread integrity or else the terrorists win, or something

At times like this I try to take a breath and remember that this is a voluntary leisure activity.

Stupid goofing and inane riffing and sometimes just being wrong and silly and silly and wrong have been part of the package here since forever. (Complaining about it is also part of the mix, too.) Anyways we can all just scroll past stuff if it isn't precisely what we want to see.

99% of the output in any genre is shitty, including the ilxposting genre

This has been pointed out in the past and I am certainly culpable: sometimes posts are like a kid coming downstairs and awkwardly trying to join the adult conversation at the party.

It's just posting, some conversation and thinking out stuff together. It's pretty good at times given its free and nobody owes anyone anything.

What I don't need is someone getting exasperated at the group. It might be ok if I respect their posts, but when your posts are terrible it's worse.

― the late great

a surprising percentage of shitposts fail to be sufficiently shit

it may be hard to accept but the early 2010s was 10+ years ago

having second thoughts about them?

really glad that my fave hip genres didn't get listed as poll options so that i don't have to be annoyed by people who don't know much about them talking shit ... or just ... being made aware that people don't share my superior aesthetic lol

for once glad that my favourite genres are not hip

remember when there were two magician movies where everyone listened to gregorian chants

my favorite genres include aak, ars subtilior, avant-oompah, barrelhouse, bongo flava, dangdut, desert surf, extratone, free exotica, jimmy punk, library, moogsploitation, narcocorrido, oktavism, outsider soca, psychedelic calypso, sega, space country, untzz untzz, western swing, and zones

free exotica = my understanding of sun ra

*nods to zones*

avant-oompah is basically a large portion of the Tzadik catalog iirc

sun ra did a lot of free exotica, also something like waitiki's _rendezvous on okonkuluku_

the tzadik stuff i've heard veers closer to avant-klezmer than avant-oompah, the avant-oompah record i was thinking of was "sono koubaly" by noodband, you could also maybe count _overcooked tyroleans_ by die knoedel if you're so inclined: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDbq5HwvvvA

my favorite genre is farm-to-table folk punk

my favorite genres include aak, ars subtilior, avant-oompah, barrelhouse, bongo flava, dangdut, desert surf, extratone, free exotica, jimmy punk, library, moogsploitation, narcocorrido, oktavism, outsider soca, psychedelic calypso, sega, space country, untzz untzz, western swing, and zones

Just words. Doesn't mean anything until you poll it

I'd watch a doc about psychedelic calypso

whenever a dick-swinging contest breaks out i have to work really hard to not post "mine was bigger".

all-purpose genre/board description.

one time in college I was with a lady and threw my library on shuffle and when I was whipping "it" out I stopped because I noticed the song was "Baby Elephant Walk" which made me laugh very hard, which then made her laugh very hard. didn't completely kill the mood though!!!

and I'm not making this up! you can ask MY WIFE about it!! we laugh about this all the time!

Reminds me of when I went to the Genius Bar to get my iPod or something fixed and I’m doing all the fun customer-technician banter and it’s all lighthearted and fun and then he saw “Anal Cunt” was near the top of my library and the convo just deflated

i brought a Rotting Christ cd to the counter to buy it once and the cashier looked at it, looked at me, and said "gee, isn't THAT nice" dismissively.

I said "motherfucker, do you know who I am?"

he snickered and said "No?"

I replied "good" and then kicked him in the balls and walked out

I was walking around town in my "jesus is a cunt" shirt and I ran into a priest who offered to pray for me so I murdered him
