Why does Yea Forums have such shit taste in music?

because it's all edgelord contrarian opinions and shitty unlistenable obscure taste

it's okay dad i'm cynically eating this shit through a critical lens
it's more sincere and helps me connect with the poors

meme rap

an entire board of people who try and say revolver is better than sgt. pepper’s is not one that should be taken too seriously on music opinions

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 times are Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Classical critics rank the highly controversial Beethoven over classical musicians who were highly popular in courts around Europe. Rock critics 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. No wonder they will think that the Beatles did anything worthy of being saved.

Because you're here. When you're gone again we'll talk about the decent stuff.

Yea Forums is the conversational equivalent of the scrubby-bearded hipster in the basement of a music shop who doesn't actually listen to anything down there and only vaguely follows musical trends for the irony
