>SNL parodying GeeseHow did they become so mainstream? I'm seeing hipsters swear off them for this lmao
if you care about popularity of a band youre a fag
>>128894229This might be a weird approach to the whole thing but I think a lot people who buy into hipsterdom are just weirdly passionate about preserving things that are difficult to preserve? Combined with this deeply strange narcissism that you're the only person who knows, only person who cares about anything? It must be alienating
>>128894229I agree. Answer the question faggot
>>128894294Hipsters want their personality to be based on being uncommon. Once something they thought made them unique turns out to have mass appeal, they realize they cannot utilize the thing they thought was so out there and weird and so they drop it since it was never about liking the thing qualitatively in the first place
>>128894294probably, but if youre more concerned with how music makes you feel (makes you feel like a niche mysterious motherfucker) instead of how good the music itself is sonically then youre gay>>128894296band started cause cameron winter is rich and can afford to make music with his members, then blew up on rym and spread from there across the internet, someone thats part of snl probably heard of him and decided to incorporate him into a skit
SNL is for out of touch boomers, its not a sign of who is mainstream. Call me when Geese is in the top 40s
>>128894340My 60 year old mother in law asked us if we knew Geese this week. It's mainstream even to the old
>>128894321>how music makes you feel>how good the music itselfYou are literally the fucking loser hipster. Music is subjectively good not objectively. Feeling is all there is. You are a cuck
>>128894340You know how hard it is to make a halfway decent, commercially successful pop song? Those Swedes who made Toxic, fucking labored day and night over the thing because they were so certain they had a classic on their hands and they were right. Winter can probably go far with his Nick Cave impression but top 40? That's a whole different beast.
Actually a decent sketchhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Tev6Q4AvUE
>>128894367nah music is definitely objectively goodmusic being subjectively good is hipster
>>128894415I just think that contradicts the very concept of objectivity, the hick blasting country in his pickup and the snob listening to classical in his ivory tower, both of those subjective musical experiences have equal value, no genre or movement has more inherent objective value than the other, if that was the case, then pop would be seen as the highest form of musical expression due to being the most commercially successful
>>128894415I accept your concession, cuckold
>>128894415That's wrong. Lol
>>128894415>retard spews retarded shitBro go away
>>128894441how about this:theres a difference between subjective and relativesomething can be objective and still be relativethe actual sonic frequencies themself are objective but how each persons receives it is different because of different genes, eardrums and experiencesthat doesnt mean music isnt objective>>128894442>>128894447>>128894454seething because your favorite music isnt as good as prog rock, idm and shoegaze
>>128894460>>128894415>IDM, prog and post-rock are the pinnacle of hipster musicLOL ok now I know you're baiting. Good try faggot
>>128894460I just still think it's wrong and I think that buying into things like AOTY lists, greatest of all-time lists, critical acclaim, accolades makes you a mark who can't think for themselves. Like you're seeking this approval from this phantom aficionado who isn't even real, it's literally just music
>>128894478im not talking about sales you fucking retardim talking about songwriting, experimentality, catchiness and only then influence over movements or future acts.these sonic elements (and influence as well) make a song great or good>>128894473i just named some genres ry/mu/ likeswhats the problem i thought you liked king crimson, aphex twin and my bloody valentine?! and that theyre "real music" unlike that disgusting edm, hiphop and harsh noise
>>128894496But HOW? HOW does something like King Crimson have more inherent value than Anal Cunt? Effort? Approach? It's all the same conglomerate of sound and expression at the end of the day
>>128894512king crimson has amazing songwriting and is a pioneer of the prog rock genrethis makes them good or somethingidk i dont listen to any objectively good music like beatles, velvet underground, radiohead, king crimson, pink floyd, my bloody valentine, the cure etc but it sounds about right. hmu if you still dont get it.
>>128894030>I'm seeing hipsters swear off them for thisGood
They portrayed him as a greasy bitch who can't sing. Impeccable impersonation.
>>128894030Industry plants obviously
>>128894229>if you care about popularity of a band youre a fagI'm the opposite. I love when my favorite weird niche experimental artists get mainstream acclaim and recognition. (So long as they stick to their guns.)I was an OPN superfan like 15 years ago and he's still my favorite musician despite now scoring all the best movies, the superbowl, etc.
