I ask once more, why did pre 2016 /mu/ hate the Beatles?
>>
we hadn't still fucked your mom.
>>
>>124438907
>why don't people want me to saturate their niche music forum by talking about the most endlessly discussed band of all time?
OP, be honest: is it autism?
>>
>>124438907
cuz the Beatles suck
>>
>>124441668
Speak for yourself.
>>
We didn't, it was just seen as tired conversation and in classic pre-2016 4chan fashion people bringing them up were met with derision.
>>
>>124441668
>niche music forum
lol
lmao
>>
>>124441682
Do you have some kind of new take on the beatles that you want to post? Do you want to hear something about them that couldn't be found in some 40,000 page steve hoffman thread about them? /mu/ is (was) for the discussion of other music
>>
>>124441715
Not everything has to be like that, you know.
>>
>>124441763
You should consider discussing the beatles with chatgpt

>>124441790
If you don't like it, don't reply. Simple as
>>
>>124441843
You're not even talking about the band itself. You're just upset that not everyone has the same opinion of the band as you
>>
>>124438907
the beatles invented music dumb zoomer
>>
>>124438907
Because they are lame and gay.
>>
>>124441861
And you're upset people talk about them. Two wrongs don't make a right
>>
>>124441898
You've received the answer to your original question
>>
>>124441915
Fair enough. ...Wanna kiss?
>>
>>124441870
Nope. There were other musicians long before The Beatles arrived numbnuts.
>>
>>124441933
there was Bach, but after he died music was lost until the beatles solved the bach equation and spent a year putting music back together

show some respect zoomie, your favorite band is a byproduct of the beatles

> The fact that so many books still name the Beatles as "the greatest or most significant or most influential" rock band ever only tells you how far rock music still is from becoming a serious art. Jazz critics have long recognized that the greatest jazz musicians of all time are Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all time. Classical critics rank the highly controversial Beethoven over classical musicians who were highly popular in courts around Europe. Rock critics, instead, are still blinded by commercial success. The Beatles sold more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore they must have been the greatest. Jazz critics grow up listening to a lot of jazz music of the past, classical critics grow up listening to a lot of classical music of the past. Rock critics are often totally ignorant of the rock music of the past, they barely know the best sellers.

>>124441941
Nah. I'd more likely to give Elvis credit before I give for fags credit in creating music. The Beatles didn't create shit but faggotry.
>>
>>124442345
Elvis didn’t write his own music
>>
>>124442473
He didn't need to.
>>
>>124442532
Relying on a songwriter is gay
>>
>>124442536
>*looks at tracklist of first two beatles albums* ACK!
>>
>>124442564
At least they wrote HALF of the songs.
>>
>>124442473
Who cares if he did or didn't? He helped make rock mainstream. That's why they call him the King Of Rock.
>>
>>124438907
Chinless contrarianism, that's about it.

>insults but no argument
Stop getting angry and just come out. It's ok. Lolololol
>>
>>124438907
I feel like its just to be contrarian, since its universally imposed as one of the greatest bands ever and even people who dont listen to music are gonna say it is. At least for me thats the reason. I hate them, I think they suck without actually having listened to an entire album, but I want to give them a chance simce I like a lot of Beatless inspired bands. Whats their absolute BEST album? Im looking for a laidback mood to smoke weed or take psychedelics to.
>>
>>124438907
contrarianism, same reason why /mu/ liked hipster garbage and currently likes pop whore drek
>>
>>124438907
We were just being baka tsundere
Nowadays every /mu/ anon has a Beatle husbando
>>
>>124445244
If you ask what their absolute best album is, you'll get a different answer every time.
I'd say pretty much any album after Help! is enjoyable while high.
>>
>>124438907
not one person has ever hated the Beatles for any reason.
>>
>>124438907
they're not as good as the Rolling Stones but still good. don't listen to anything after Help!
best song: I Want To Hold Your Hand
>>
>>124445508
>they're not as good as the Rolling Stones
terrible bait
>>
>>124445557
Beatles don't have an album on the level of Exile on Main St.
>>
>>124445557
Beatles have 3 good years. 1963, 1964 and 1965. you can argue they may have better than the Stones during those years only.
The Rolling Stones won the war, they have the longevity by far. And are way better live. More great songs, more great albums, more everything. it's not even close. you're a fool if you think otherwise
>>
>>124445583
Rolling Stones may be better musicians technically speaking and better live performers but Beatles are on another level when it comes to songwriting, innovation and hits, hell their songs are taught at school. They defined a decade in pop culture worldwide and paved the way for the next gen of artists. All of that in less than 10 years of activity.

Longevity does not equate to quality, not necessarily, also it is unfair to use this argument when RS could continue to play together, they obviously have a solid and diverse catalog.
>>
>>124445781
Stones never did anything as crap as let it be (the album)
>>
>>124445263
Liking contemporary pop music is perhaps the least contrarian act I can imagine
>>
>>124449529
THe stones released nothing but slop after Some Girls tho
>>
>>124449824
Modern /mu/ is contrarian against itself, which is why you see people shit on /mu/core so hard any time it's brought up now.
>>
Nobody ever hated The Beatles on /mu/
That was a false rmour started by dead-it
>>
bump
>>
>>124438907
Because they suck
>>
>>124453668
my man
>>
>>124449847
Liking /wpop/ simply makes you a pleb regardless of whether the enjoyment is earnest or anti-/mu/core retvrn to plebshit contrarianism. The latter group I suspect doesn't actually exist, those people are just butthurt plebs lashing out at better music. I don't think they liked /mu/core, it unclicked, and they decided to listen to /wpop/

Mozart mogs bachelor, and it ain't even close
>>
>>124438907
because they're overrated, they were a mediocre trendhopping 60s boy band that had a good pr team

>bud da beedlz zdarded drens! D: D:
no. mccartney and the producer were always reading and finding out what the latest and emerging trends were and capitalizing on and exploiting them. they never did anything original
>>
>>124455038
What’s your favorite band?
>>
>>124455082
Two Door Cinema Club
>>
>>124455038
>always reading and finding out what the latest and emerging trends were and capitalizing on and exploiting them
Lmao well they sure were geniuses at foreseeing and anticipating trends so many times, delivering some many hits that no other band could compete with them.
>>
>>124454979
Your're autocorrect mogs you, wanker
>>
>>124456767
no, the trends had already emerged fully developed through the london underground scene, the fraud beatles just jumped onto them and acted like they created them
>>
>>124455250
Great band. I love that cover of Isolation they did.

Lolololol @ you.
>>
>>124457138
So you're saying that the Beatles were smart and the others (the entire world) were stupid because they didn't notice the Beatles were frauds.
>>
>>124457125
You puff bastard
>>
>>124458548
>entire world
no, not everyone was a beatles fan

no one will deny they ears for melody, but innovations and recording techniques are not closed copyrights. the london underground scene would've heard what the beatles were doing and thought "hey how about that - we had being doing that recently too, these guys are with it"
>>
>>124438907
How the fuck do u know pre 2016 /mu/ hate the Beatles? And more importantly: why do u care?
>>
>>124438907
i still hate them
>>
>>124463216
Some fag keeps spamming this meme that pre 2016 /mu/ bullied people for discussing the beatles
>>
how come Boyband poster keeps saying /mu/ hated the beatles but never says why.
>>
>>124441870
The Beatles were always just a Buddy Holly and The Crickets ripoff band.
>>
>>124468761
The proper word you're looking for is TRIBUTE.
>I still don't understand why John didn't wear glasses in the early years, and pay tribute properly....
>>
>>124465739
It's true. It happens every day.
