post your early ILM "shut up, the lot of you!" moments

I don't get it. And why would I.

moments of self conscious antagonism towards the ilm-critical hivemind or whatever

i think the ultimate in this would be patrin

well, gee. i like indie. what more do i need to say.

i don't understand either. but i love that cartoon

Only about half of that original list, if that, is that contradictory towards the ILM hivemind at any time in its history.

The ultimate in this is probably Alex In NYC circa 2002.

that is a very ilm-friendly list.

Depends on whose ILM standards you use, Scott. ;-)

i heard a version of natural mystic the other day on the radio not by bob marley and it sounded so cool. a reggae version. it was way better than bob's.

i'm just saying that a LOT of the people on that list are beloved by lots of ILMers. except for maybe bob marley. and i don't know what devotchka is.

That list has credibility.

its this thing

don't bother with it

you dumbnuts. Dave Matthews Band are the most talented group out there from the last 20 years. Most of you havent heard an entire album or seen them in concert. So what if some fans use dmb as make out music. At least some of us can get chicks!

"hike up your dress a little more/ and show your world to me:" is a funny line. dont you guys like humor in your music? do you have to really take music so seriously? its only music. I like music as much as the next guy but why do you hate a band so much. At least they play their instruments and write their own songs. Unlike those Pop idol 'artists'.
As for yuppies /lawyers/accountants liking them so what? Is that a reason to hate a band?
Why not hate the overhyped Nirvana, the WORST thing to ever happen to music. They were rubbish at their instruments, Kurt couldnt sing , He was a junkie. They spawned a million of horrible 'indie & alternative' bands meaning an entire generation missed out on bands whoc ould actually play!

This is me on like every Bright Eyes thread through maybe '04 but its more like "shut up, Ned!"

That's not hivemind, it's just classic.

xpost, i meant

*whistles idly*

Dig up the "100 reasons why 'Ignition (Remix)' is awesome" thread and you get to see me make Matt Perpetua cybercry.

Ethan, if this thread is about posting your "early" anti-hivemind moments then why did you post someone else's?

My biggest doozy is that anti-intellectualism thread, a complaint ILM has been making ironic ever since.

I thought your biggest doozy was Limp Bizkit!

I guess I'm just thinking of the ones I actually regret.

you've both grown up so much.

No singles!

Wow, I'd never thought I'd say this, but Freddie looks fetching.

omg I hadn't seen that pic. I luv u, Scott.

btw I need to e-mail you about your marooned piece. So good!

There was only one "Shut up" part in his old list, why is everyone judging the list on the whole for its "SHUT UP THE LOT OF YOU"-ness? It's the Sufjan Stevens one with brackets beside it.

Me, I've never been against the hivemind-- but I don't get too close to ILM anyway because, well, I haven't listened to much recently (and when I do I oddly no long have the urge to know what others think about it-- usually I don't even 'like' what I am listening to, but I try and 'give it a chance' until I still feel the same about it but am familiar with it. I think I lost the love for teh muzik.)

Jaymc wins.

(Also I remember what I was doing on that very day which is a bit weird)

Will, get one different music.
