Music made before 1970 is considered ancient, music made before 1950 is pre-historic https://www.bing.com/search?q=music+made+before+1970+is+ancient%2C+before+1950+is+pre-historic&PC=U316&FORM=CHROMN Why are you obsessed with a primitive obsolete band ?

I wish the garbage known as kendrick had joined the list, his fans are walking feces, the most cringy, sycophant, ignorant wannabe, pretentious scum to walk the earth "tpab is good because it has many/deep meanings" that's the type of "review" I've seen posted a hundred times over, rap destroyed the taste of those born post-1990.

"Racist" ? because I call the overrated shit known as kendrick out ?, I wouldn't care if he were white, latino (which I am), asian, blue, alien... rap devolved in the 2000s-10s, into stuff like migos, it wouldn't be a problem if it remained like crunkcore or sth, that is, not the dominant mainstream, claiming to be "outsiders", or pushed everywhere by compromised "critics". There are a few good rap records : Igor, Kanye first 5 albums etc... none of which get as dickridden as the bullshit kendrick puts out. With most other genres forgotten/swallowed, trap, pluggn and whatever other bs is all that remained, with artists in every othe genre seemingly forgetting how to write good songs, and people, raised almost exclusively on rap, developing shit taste in music (geese ?) so much so, the only decent music left, which zoomers want to claim, was made in the early 00s.

The Antlers. That's an older one, but I'm sure there are a few years' worth of proto-/mu/core bands or albums that were starting to catch on but never really got canonised before the board took a very quick nosedive. Lil Ugly Mane would be one of those, where lots of users in the late 2010s or very early 2020s would have listened to him, and Mista Thug Isolation probably made it onto a few charts, but that crowd got washed out before something like Volcanic Bird could establish itself here.

>>129788386
Pretty much all of /mu/core except The Beatles, Nirvana, and maybe Beefheart.

I remember seeing this one a few times in the /mu/ sharethreads dump.

In retrospect it's a little surprising to me that /mu/ coalesced around such low-key music, considering that 4chan was otherwise such a hive of angry/energetic teens/early 20s kids.

but you're right. people would rather trust the judgement of an algorithm that's 'specifically for them', but actually serves the same stuff to almost everyone than what another human has found and enjoyed.

The music my algorithm suggest for me is pretty obscure, I do not trust /mu/ to be able to recommend me anything I’d like as much but I’m always open to suggestions. It’s just 90% of sharing here results in a person being underwhelmed (“this sucks”), I have found some good shit here though on occasion

right, why won't you share some of the super obscure algorithm finds then?

This only really happens if you give 0 context to what is to be expected on the album and just give something like "thoughts?". There is no way for someone to gauge if it's something they might enjoy, so unless it's really generic, it has a low chance of finding it's audience by accident. The low user count doesn't help this of course.

I didn’t mean to imply that I get disappointing results but rather I’m sure you’ve seen this interaction a million times, as I have
>there’s no good new music
>yes there is you just have to dig
>show me
>*anon provides a link*
>several anons respond saying it sucks
I wouldn’t tell anybody there suggestion sucked or I didn’t like it just because I wouldn’t want to hurt another anon’s feelings in that way, I feel music is deeply personal.

That having been said most of the music sharing interactions I see on here lead to someone being disappointed or disliking it, that’s why I think algorithms have replaced share threads for a lot of anons and there’s no consensus favorites like in the 2010s.

Pic related is the best Ollie album I’ve listened to

NMH and Swans are unique and deserve to be preserved. NMH invented indie folk as its known in 21st cent and did i with actual soul using the extra strings perfectlIy like no other band has ever done (on aeroplane), Swans has so much ground they covered from Cop, to Soundtracks, to the newer trilogy that they completely unlike anything else multiple times. The list of bands and albums that deserves to be immortalized is huge and these guys easily make it. GRIMES SUCKS

>>129789103

>>129789243
okay but only because they cornered a sound in Post Rock in a basic but untouchable way (crescendo core)

>>129789267
4chan /mu/ had insane emotion and sincerity that bled through so much of the indie mucore, hard to comprehend if you weren't a part of it but that vibe is gone from here

bingo old /mu/ was sharing all these core albums and more and we lived through the shared experience

>>129790567
getting rid of the old guard is not the answer, people broadening their taste and understanding why these were iconic to us in the first place, you can add plenty more artists but I don't get rid of artists that I had strong feelings with I just add more to it

>>129788688
I used to work in a record store and I remember going out of my way to keep their first EP in stock (this was all they had at this point) and big upped it to everyone who came in.
Then they played a show in my town and I brought maybe 5 people with me to see them. Probably about 20 people there in total. When I went to talk to them while they were smoking outside and told them I was a fan, how I recommend people their CD and brought people to see them play. They were just like "oh are we supposed to be thankful?"
It threw me off because I was doing it to help them because I really liked the band, I don't know what I was expecting but it wasn't that response. Oh well I was 17 and probably a bit of a retard. Either way, I stopped making sure their cd was in stock after that.

What do people hate so much about /mu/core? Is it because you've overlistened to it and you're just bored of it? Or do you hate it because other people like it?
I've noticed the people who hate on it super hard never even try to suggest any better alternatives. It's just mindless negativity, like they're not even interested in discussing music to begin with.

/mu/core has just been discussed and memed to death. It's hard to imagine a fresh shitpost for NMH.
But also, 'old' 4chan was actually more reddit-like than reddit has been for a good while now. It brings back a taste of a time when /mu/ thought it was not just superior to the average listener but was incredibly cringe in absolute terms.

Kanye and Radioheads praise was always meritless. I'm almost not mad it took culture war stupidity for public opinion to finally somewhat turn on them.
As for everything else, I liked the weirdo side of it like Beefheart and The Fishmans but most of the more emotional side of it, shit like CSH and American Football was just way too whiny and felt kind of empty and vapid. Also just way too low energy.
The people who liked that shit were even more annoying than the faggots who spam A7X and Creed now. (Though it's close)
Should have been more garage rock, prog, industrial and other weird electronic shit and WAY less emo influenced drivel.
And post rock and Shoegaze were just kinda there.

Thanks for taking my side fren. This was during the time of my life right after reading "Our Band Could be Your Life" and felt like I should try to help these guys out. But obviously they ended up making it.
Anyways a few months later I ended up seeing them live again in the big city of Ottawa. The girl I was chasing was going to the show, so I went mostly for her sake.
>simping, yes. but I was coming from a country school and suddenly here was this cute girl with big boobs who liked the same music I did. We were destined to fall in love.
>We didn't lmao
At the merch table ended up buying their EP again, this time on wax and buddy signed it. He didn't recognize me and I didnt't say anything because what's the point? Around this time their debut came out, and I was seeing them on MuchMusic (canadian mtv) and just lost interest.
