brutal. Is he right?
>>129072162imagine being such a retard that you need someone else to tell you what music to enjoy. i'd kill myself.
>>129072162Other than Lodger I tend to agree
>>129072162uhh....................based?
>>129072184The critic is the real artist
>>129072262then how come every time a critic tries to make the art the critique, they always suck ass? fantano plays bass worse than my 1st year students that i teach (ages 9-13). all the screenplays roger ebert wrote were uninspired shite
>>129072302Lets just say, you don't have to be a chef to know that dogshit tastes like dogshit. In this instance, its the white nationalist larping Bowie.
>>129072310>you don't have to be a chef to know that dogshit tastes like dogshitcooklets have no right opening their mouth about cooking. they should stick to nuggies and kool-aid jammers
>to say that Bowie is a musician is like saying that Nero was a harp player (a fact that is technically true, but misleading)I think this guy is usually full of shit but he can be pretty hilarious at times
>>129072162hes a retard who thought coltrane wasnt a top 20 best selling jazz artistwhy would he ever be right
>>129072162>never let me down and blackstar are the sameI agree
Based because he agrees with me. Bowie sucks. Three good songs, MAYBE.
>>129072523>I think this guy is usually full of shit but he can be pretty hilarious at timesHes just like /mu/ fr
>>129072162He gave Low and Heroes 7s so that's good enough since it's honestly not a bad score for scaruffi
>>129072262the frogposter is the real artist
Who READS BLOGS anymore? Is this shit from the fucking 90s?
>>129072162Thanks anon, I tried several times to enjoy Bowie (beside the albums recorded at Hansa), yet the insane shilling almost convinced me I was missing something in that 4/10 sea of slop...
>>129072162This pretty much applies to Taylor Swift too
>>129072162>>129072789Nope, and it's embarrassing to be proud of being filtered by bowie.Bowie is one of the greatest singers and songwriters of all time.
>>129072894>singer-songwritersounds like a 12 year old goth girl who stole a guitar and ran away from home
>>129072717kys gaylord
How come we don't get mainstream artists like Bowie anymore who turn underground scenes into commodities?
>>129072184Professional critics - trained professionals who often studied at universities how to perceive, critique and appreciate music - spend most of their time filtering the essentials out for you. Now, that's TRAINED PROFESSIONALS who do that, not your average joe. I'm sorry guys, when I want the weldings checked at a structurally critical truss, I get engineers. I won't be relying on my own opinion about the quality of the welds. I find it supremely amusing that one would unironically, with a straight face, abandon expert opinions when it comes to music. I have to admit, it makes me chuckle a little.
>>129072310>its the white nationalist larping Bowie.>white nationalism is bad because...it just is, ok?
>>129073826You're a fucking faggot.
>>129073826>>129073875relax. there are only a few experts left today youre both right in some way. id call someone a fucking faggot if they told me to listen to fantanos opinion, although scaruffi is much more respectable. give him a chance
>>129072310>white nationalistWhat is "white nationalism"? I assume you mean European nationalism.
>>129074004what is "european nationalism"?
>>129074033What do you mean? (Pure) Europeans are all the same. There is no "white" race/species but there is a European one.
>>129074120If you, an American, told a Hungarian and a Romanian that they are the exact same, they'd both kill you. Even the most self absorbed Europeans of the 19th century who attempted to establish a common racial identity/ancestry failed because they couldn't agree on even the most irrelevant of details (see indogermanisch vs. indoeuropäisch)
>>129072162>Ziggy Stardust over Station To Stationwho's this faggot?
>>129074203I'm not from the US. All Europeans have the same origin even if made up borders prevent people from accepting that.
>>129074302Assuming you're basing this off of paternal ancestry, then Indians, Pakistanis, Iranians, Kurds, and many Sahelians are European as well. Aside from paternal ancestry, there is no other common origin
>>129074406Europeans originate from Neanderthals and they all have fair hair and fair eyes. There used to be Europeans in Iran, not anymore though.
>>129074823Neanderthals possessed neither of those phenotypic traits, and Asians have the highest proportion of Neanderthal DNA. Even to this day, most Europeans don't possess those traits together. Additionally, until the past few centuries Germans were more associated with red hair than blonde (this belief can be found in, among other examples, chapter IX of Tacitus' Agricola)
>Lil Peep has a better average than Bowie according to ScaruffiBased italian boomer
>>129074978>Neanderthals possessed neither of those phenotypic traitsIncorrect.>Asians have the highest proportion of Neanderthal DNABecause the people tested were Siberians and Asians.
>>129073826>how to perceive, critique and appreciate musici just use my brain. i didn't need to pay for a degree to know if music is good or bad. sounds like critics are art-school retards
>>129072162It's been posted here a 1000 timesPeople laugh at it and think it's funnyBut i've yet to see one poster prove him wrong(they can't because he's right)
>>129072162Yes. If there was a heat map of Bowie's densest popularity it would all be in places like Brooklyn and Berkely, hubs for the most artifical rich kid counter-culture
>>129074823all modern humans except for africans do
>>129075054Neanderthals went extinct around 33 thousand years before the mutation today associated with blonde hair was first observed in the fossil recordThe second part of what you said makes no sense
>>129072200hilarious to think that he wrote this fully aware that he was already dead
>>129075764Correct, that's why everyone except sub-Saharan Africans share an ancient pagan religion.
if critics could make music themselves they would not be critics. you literally cannot prove me wrong.
>>129074004He is talking about thsi you fucking idiot
>>129072162What music does this fucker like?
>>129073320Awww you're a fan?Have fun reading that diary.I'll be over here actually listening to music.
>>129072184Considering who wants me to enjoy certain music instead of others, the last thing I want for my life is even more brit or cali astroturfed rock slop from plant bands. So, if you call me a retard for avoiding shit astroturfed by the worse of the worst people on the top of the music industry, I call you a faggot cuck for bending over and spreading your cheeks to receive them, because "it's good music stop complaining"
>>129072200>Blackstar was so shit it killed BowieThe perils of making shit music. Scaruffi won.
>>129077766>last thing I want for my life is even more brit or cali astroturfed rock slop from plant bandsif you're too stupid to discern an astroturfed industry-pant band within 2 seconds, you're too retarded to be allowed to have rights.
>>129076397He likes KoRn. Much better than trash like Bowie.
>>129077834Agreed. My point is, "enjoying" plant music because "it's good" is pozzed cuckery.
>>129077869>>129072162>Piero ScaruffiDoes he even play music if he does not i cannot take him seriously.
>>129072162This guy must hate the Beatles too.Bowie was so influential that you can hear him in all rock music made since the 70s and especially in punk, post-punk, alt-rock and indie.
>>129072184Imagine being such a retard that you think you're not being told what to like constantly anyway, by algorithms, platforms, charts, playlists, /mu/ taste cycles and social media hype, and then pretending that an independent critic with an actual point of view is somehow the problem. So when are you killing yourself?
>>129072200blackstar is pretty bad though. hard carried by cancer
FUCK ICETHE MOVEMENT JOIN THE REVOLThttps://youtu.be/SsWsmH2d_Qg?si=sAGR7SeBPnmZbSs_
>>129075903Yet he still thought lazarus was about a gay alien or something
At least you faggots stopped ott posting
>>129078602His music canon is much more interesting than boomeer beato's
>>129072162Right about the image crafting and avant-poseurismWrong about songwriting.This is what puzzles me: why did Bowie need to faggotise his songs so much using the most campest oddball instrumentation, when if he just played them in a classical way they'd still be great songs.Like I can actually listen to and like 'The man who sold the world' when Nirvana covers it, but his rendition is some faggy Oriental decadent shit with güiro percussion.What a poser
>>129072894>Bowie is one of the greatest singers and songwriters of all time.Like, up there with just an acoustic guitar singing their truth?because the ones that come to mind for 20th century singer songwriters are like, Paul Simon, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, etc. with Bowie pretty far down the list.
>>129072162ignore scaruffi's numbers, what he says about Bowie being a fashion icon and not a music one is an astute observation.
>>129077869Korn's debut album genuinely is more innovative than anything the Beatles or Bowie produced.The problem Korn had was that they immediately became an MTV band.
