/mu/ - Music (Temp full images)

Literally your first day on /mu/

>>37095417
Not my first day.

Its just that people who say "i will decide what is my opinion about this album after ill see the ratings it got at various sites" really annoy me.

>>37095448
Literally your second post on /mu/

I'm actually not sure if you're trolling or not at this point.

Get over it, TH is boring.

>>37095465
Nope. i visited here for few months allready as a casual poster.

I agree OP, I hate it when people let someone else's opinion become theirs

I have my own opinions. But I also don't read album reviews.

I don't think that even the people who do read reviews usually let it affect their opinions, short of giving listens to high-rated albums. It's mostly just bragging rights when your favorite album gets a high critical score.

>>37095479
I respect your opinion, but for me,
TH is a 10/10 classic and is far from being boring. i can literally listen to it all day and i wont get bored.

TH = Tokyo Hotel

How would you know, you were so young when we met.

I wouldn't say I let music reviewers change my opinion, because they don't. I use music reviewers as a guide. If music reviewers say an album is good, maybe I'll check it out and form my own opinion about it. Sometimes I end up agreeing with the reviewer, sometimes not.

Jesus, lay off him, just because he likes something a lot doesn't mean he needs to 'expand his horizons'

this fuckin guy

I don't understand the individualistic mindset some people have when it comes to reading criticism. You'd never hear of a student of classical music refusing to look at their history textbook for fear of being brainwashed into liking something or other. The entire notion is silly.

You only encounter it in people who listen to pop music. I can only assume it's an overcompensation for an insecurity. Like, they know that the main basis of their preferences is social or other conditioned behavior, and by refusing to read reviews they can push the cognitive dissonance out and will themselves back into believing they're special snowflakes.

Bottom line: if you don't read music criticism (and criticism and "reviews" are separate, as one is corporate-sponsored and the other us academic) you are more ignorant than someone who does.

Deafheaven bitches.

I bet if a lot of people who don't know how to play music learned then they would stop caring as much about bullshit.
