>>121589195used to think this was funny until i started to see it after dying to every faggot engi/solly player
>>121589557what the fuck was his problem?
>>121589557wtf i love steve albini now
>>121589557he's right
>>121589907>>121589170fuck off to steely dan fucking faggot
>>121589170>>121589557
>>121589557I love Steely Dan, but I can't disagree. Captcha: RANS0M
>>121589557Classic Gen X edgelord cynicism without substance. It's funny how young people now love Steely Dan and don't care at all about stuff like Big Black because they don't have any of those preconceptions
>>121590681maybe it's a different steve albini... prove it isnt.....
>>121589557Brutal.Imagine hiring the best session musicians and engineers on the planet, only to sound, like *that*>>121590703Aja is a utterly futile listen once you get over the musicianship and production.It has no artistic intended beyond showing what other, more talented players CAN do over basically stock jam tracks.>LOOK, it's Purdie Shuffle,... over a boring shit yatch balladIf anything, it's Stealy Dan's music the thing with no substance here.
>>121590772I literally proved it in the next post >>121590687
>>121590879o god, it's real
>>121590850It's the songwriting, that's why their music still holds up
>>121590703The retarded incel ones sure.
>>121591704It doesn't though lmao. I'm guessing you're a Zappa Fan aswell? 27 and I love Big Black.
>>121591761Say Steely Dan and most people will think of Steely Dan. Say Big Black, most people will think of a fat black MTV personality
>>121591859Most people that listen to more than a couple Steely Dan songs are on Discord lol.
>>121591859Also I do not care. Steely Dan has like one good song (Reelin in The Years) and Big Black is good for almost their entire Discography.
>>121591891Delusional
>>121592032Not really dude lol,I think you're a pretty good example even. If it was the mid 2010s maybe teenage girls but now it's just manchildren.
>>121591907Big black has no songwriting and is just dumb riffing with edgy poetry yelled on top, that's why no one cares about stuff like that anymore
>>121592099Counterpoint:same goes for Steely Dan for the most part. Also it definetely does have at least some songwritting. More than other similar bands did.
>>121592099>"that's why no one cares about stuff like that anymore"They do,you just don't get laid or go outside at all so you don't see it lol. More people do than still care about Steely Dan if anything (like I said outside of Discord). That's why the only remaining form of rock music prettymuch is extreme metal.
>>121589212Gonna need a source for that sweaty
>>121592444Why are you responding twice to the same post with this inane drivel
>>121592591Why are you spamming meme words in hopes of distracting from the fact that what I'm saying is true? I will agree that more Zoomers are incels/redditor types than Gen Xers were. That does not make your shitty /mu/list pogchamp shit cool. Big Black will literally always be cool.
>>121592635You have said nothing of substance whatsoever
>>121592683I said that if you'd actually been to shows in real life you'd have run into at least a handful of fans of this band but we both know you're not a musician and don't really go do things so yeah,I agree that you and the other people on your Discord anime meme server probably like Steely Dan better and that guys like you love screeching about Big Black and similar artists. Pretty simple stuff. Keep projecting and trying to divert the conversation though. Maybe if Steve actually sang about anime and being le heckin incel you'd like it more,seems like the pattern there.
>>121592683Like I get this works for you on reddit and Discord but nobody actually thinks you're smart for repeating shitty meme phrases. It mostly just proves the point I set out to make. You and other guys like you who will mever make music and do not procreate will probably continue believing so. It will not negate Big Black or other HC Bands overall legacy. Verymuch still a thing in Massachusetts too. Do I expect it to be a thing forever no but the influence is there more than Steely Dan's is especially since "Pop Rock" isn't really still an existing radio format. Rock is extreme metal and top 40 is pop rap and pop country. I will repeat this until I am blue in the face because it is true. Blake Shelton has more of a legacy than Steely Dan does aswell even if I'm not into him.
>>121592711>muh ad hominem on anonymous imageboard for the 100th timeI'm bored now, bye.
You guys know you are both losers right
>>121592759Yeah ok,go get bullied by someone else I guess. Keep throwing out meme words,you're not as special as you think you are Dwight. Does Steve albini make you feel insecure about yourself? The answer is yes,you do in fact sound like that. My guess would be that you're like home if he had zero self awareness.
>>121592762I'm not though. I have a girlfriend who loves me and I've actually put out music lol. This tard will kill himself in his mid 30s when he realizes that literally nobody wants to play trian simulator with him.
>>121592782That does not make you a not loser thoueverest you know that right
>There are still HC Bands>There aren't still bands that actually sound like Steely Dan>There are also still Nu Metal and Black Metal Bands>There aren't still Bands that sound like Bread or whatever the fuck Inb4 Disco still exists
>>121592795He's almost certainly a bigger one though. I don't really have much to prove here. These types of guys are all prettymuch the same. We get it,you hate "punk" and "Boomer music" you love anime osts,you lost your virginity to a hooked and work in tech support. You are bitter and want us to know how above it you are. Yadda yadda.

>>121589557bro about to die from an aneurism over The Dan of all things im dead
>>121589557Based Albini. Reelin in The Years is a good song though.
all steely dan albums on RYM bolded until gaucho. now post your favorite band...
>>121590681It was just shit he said to be shocking. Keep in mind that this was the same time as like Slayer and shit. Also nothing about this sounds genuine at all and you cannot convince me that given his level of profile that the police have never looked into this. It's just a really stupid really obvious attempt at baiting people though. Nothing more to it really.
>>121590681Steve is likely slightly Autistic and does genuinely use and endorse heroin. We've all said things we regret. I just don't think this was something he actually meant or that more would have surfaced by now. People in The 90s thought saying shit like this was cool and subversive. These statements have aged really fucking poorly as has the obsession with hentai but I don't think Steve was genuinely a pdf or even like predatory towards women. It was just the most wildly offensive thing he thought he could convince people to believe. That being said GG Allin and also Bon Jovi do seem like they were genuinely kinda creeps and although neither of those are EXACTLY like Big Black they definetely would be easy to describe as Punk and Metal respectfully so I can see why people online are up in arms about this or skeptical about Steve's morality in light of it. I just cannot genuinely take it seriously. It's like a 13 Year Old drying swastikas made of penises and yelling the n word because he got sent to detention. It is incredibly fucking stupid but Steve Albinis infatuation seems to be more rooted in dumbass edgelordism and morbid fascination than anything else. It is quite emberassing to read in a coldsteel the Hedgehog way though. As a fan of the band makes me cringe a bit. Wesely Willis as schizo as he was I don't think would have been ok with Steve Albini actually abusing children or raping women or killing people nor do I think Kurt Cobain would have been. Being edgy like this prior to columbine happening was pretty par for the course.

>>121592759no one cares. fuck off with your blogbitch bullshit.
>>121590668That's too much to read
>>121604050Ok whatever. I feel like a lot of you discount Jimi Hendrix as having been whatever a sideshow but those white artists in England and Europe actually respected him deeply. I get a lot of you are racist a fuck too but like Eric Clapton wasn't exactly socially progressive on these issues and he still viewed Hendrix as a "gid" in terms of what he was doing. Hendrix really cared about art and music. He was a true artists artist. He went to The UK with no family nobody he knew there and basically risked everything he had to make psychedelic music better. He fucking loved The Blues and loved Soul Music but he went to a place where nobody looked like him or understood these cultural ideas out of respect for their music and played it as one of the best of all of them. Obviously the past is always problematic or whatever bit to say Hendrix was being fetishized or whatever and didn't actually earn what he did is kind of crazy. Manuel Gottschtung respected him and I can shit on The Beatkes all I want but they did too. He saw where music was going in the long run and wanted to enrich it and make it stronger. He was like Lou Reed was. He told everyone he was black and from the USA and that was a selling point but that's not "equal employment" or whatever that's because he loved music as an art form deeply and European critics respected him for this. He saw Psychedelia both as a continuation of the classical tradition/euruofolk/other things that predated Psychedelia in Europe as well as The Blues and Soul Music he had started as playing and they deeply respected him for that. White audiances in the USA maybe didn't but Jimis selling point was that he was an artists artist to these white people in Europe. To say that isn't legitimate in a way is the most racist thing you could say because ethays the legimtacy of his training and his work. He loved loved loved Psychedelia and went to England and Germany just to play it.
>>121589152why are the people in the bottom part all chads though if they're not cool?
America didn't give Jimi Hendrix a fair chance either due to our racial biases. Europe at the time was obviously whiter or less diverse or whatever but they didn't they were willing to give him a chance. That's not a reflection on Europe as much as it is on us. I'm part German and part Mick so that might be a cultural bias but when I was over in Germany they didn't have those same ways of thinking overall. The idea that people from other races owe you their labour too in the same way. They didn't feel entitled to what Jimi had done the way we do. That Americans weren't able to give him the same respect doesn't prove he was a "diversity hire" or whatever the fuck it proves America is racist. That doesn't disprove the value of Jimis work either.
>>121603536I miss rampant Weezerposting
>>121589557>be steely dan>make awesome music>make some poser pedophile seetheBased Steely Dan
>>121607337There's no way he's actually a pedophile. All the hentai shit is also there for shock value. Steve Albini like I said was unironically on heroin and probably also had autism and in the early 90s before columbine being the Autistic tweaker who yelled random scary bullshit was still cool. Like before the current era being slightly Autistic and saying off-putting shit if you were in these counterculture spaces and were on hard drugs was like "I'm cool and an outsider" and less yk "I hate Woman and watch too much anime". Steve Albini was also almost certainly visited for these comments given how high profile he was. He worked with NirvanA the cops absolutely visited him even if it's never been publicly known and probably came to the same conclusion I did. That being said it's really cringy overall. It's like Thrash Metal and Nazi Imagerry though. Also as very visibly Autistic as he was Steve Albini slept with women in the punk and Grunge scene and similar. They would have come out and said something. He was into making people think and expressing his sense of social alienation. Also neither Kurt Cobain or Wesely Willis would have been ok with him actually being a Pedo or killing people or whatever. Steve Albini has one of those super Autistic creepy voices too,I think he was playing an act muchlike Metal bands from that time were. Ofc there were racist Metal bands and shit but yeah,I really doubt it. Morelikely Steve Albini wants us to believe he's a pedophile or has a massive collection of hentai and is reading rapeman than he actually is like that. Might be some kind of left wing attempt to deconstruct modern masculinity or on the flipside trigger the stuffy feminists or whatever or maybe both but it's completely an act.
>>121607337That being said Steely Dan does have some good songs. I would just rate Big Black higher for me personally. Both have some crazy riffs. I think Steve Albini being an actual heroin addict and also probably having autism in the 90s felt very socially alienated and maybe said weird shit as a call for help and that his fans although maybe not Autistic and maybe not actually on heroin or similar artists like I said Wesely Willis and Kurt Cobain maybe saw him as challenging and subversive and daring and cool for that. Wesely Willis wasn't on drugs but he was very obviously mentally ill and Kurt was on Heroin so they probably verymuch both related to that. I don't think Kurt or Willis would have stood by if he was really that fucked up though and towards the end of his life he was actually on good terms with Phil Anselmo. As racist as he is Phil Anselmo isn't THAT bad of a person. I cannot imagine Phil or anyone else form PanterA having not said anything about that.
This is in fact Nico Sperg btw. I do not hate Steely Dan I do like some songs by them mostly Reelin in The Years while fucked up on repeat.

>>121597911What do these even mean?
>>121591907this but the opposite
>>121590850Steely Dan isn't about production. That's a myth spread by people who think LoFi is a feature instead of a shortcoming.They just wanted to get the most out of their music, that's not different than people used to do in classical music for centuries.The songwriting is the reason Steely Dan is great. Even rough demos from their early days have more heart than a lot of music SD haters celebrate.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OioxH3KmfEA

>>121590872punk music makes a lot more sense, and both of these versions fit within it, when you realize it was never about being generally anti-establishment, and always about attacking stable homogeneous European culture and civilization in particular in order to subvert it and pave the way for jewish culture.the ramones, sex pistols, the clash, velvet underground, blondie, bad religion, nofx, black flag/henry rollins, beastie boys, the entire "riot grrrl" and "queercore" movements, every punk-adjacent rock group of the 90s and beyond, even the venues where punk bands got their start, all included or were owned and managed by jews."punk" is an extremely jewish culture and genre and always has been.
