/mu/ - Music (Temp full images)

Oh, cool! The same thread from earlier!

How butthurt are rapfags?
Enough to spam worthless posts like OP lmao

how butthurt are rockists?
Enough to reply to a shitpost

>>45554429
>implying shitposts aren't the most replied to thing on /mu/

very

Dislike something? Associate it with an ugly guy who wears a fedora! People will start disliking the thing to avoid association with undesirable people. It worked with atheists and MRA's, it'll work with rock fans too!

Its less anger and more mild irritation.

>>45554525
Irritation near the lower back? :)

What's wrong with demanding my male rights?

Could you stop using words you don't understand?
Rockist != listening to a lot of rock music.

9/10

>Rockist != listening to a lot of rock music.
Nobody implied that

>>45554554
Yeah I struck my tail bone slightly. Only to the point of it being a mild inconvenience.

>>45555025
It still doesn't make sense.
The image is very clearly talking about fans of rock music so the usage is still wrong.
It could say "fans of rock music" or something like that, but we have to be pretentious and misuse words that sound smarter.

I'm pretty sure le fedora'd gentlemen listen to anime soundtracks and neo-industrial, and have some classical CD's they only put on as background music.

Not it isn't

>>45555086
Do you realize how retarded you sound?

>>45555287
It's actually true though.

>>45555321
It is, but OP IS ASSBLASTED ABOUT HIS UNFUNNY MAYMAYS LOL

>>45555263
Then what else is it talking about?
It's entirely possible for a rockist to not care about rock music, so why would s/he care about criticisms to it? There are hip hop fans who are rockist, classical and jazz rockists, it can't just be talking about everyone. Either the word was used wrong which makes it retarded or the image is just illogical.
Oh my god l'm actually discussing this who cares? We have all the knowledge in the world right at our fingertips and what do we use it for? Porn and shitty anime image boards? I am so bored I want to die holy shit why.

>>45555321
>fedoras listen to neo-industrial and classical
you're stupid as fuck

This board have really gone to shit. Even /tv/ and /v/ is better.

If there's any justice left in /mu/ this wonderful thread will remain on the front page.

>>45555950
That might have been true a few months ago, but now all boards seem to have been diluted down in quality.

Fuck this, Im going back to Reddit. It was nice knowing you guys. *tips meme*

>>45555984
Stay there, same to all of you rockistfags

>>45555844
moot's "funposting" backfired horribly.

>>45556010
/mu/ is probably more rockist than reddit.

>>45556034
Nope

>>45556057
There are probably more redditors who listen to singles or skip tracks they don't like than on here.
Assuming you're using the word "rockist" correctly.

>>45556088
>rockist means not listening to singles or skipping trakcs
yeah, you're stupid

>>45556106
They're certainly examples of rockist behaviors that are very common on /mu/.
Can't speak for reddit though, don't go there. I'd still bet money on reddit being less rockist than /mu/ though.

>>45556191
Rockism does not refer to a set of behaviors, it refers to the notion that Rock is the peak and gravitational center of music, and music's worth is only measured in its relation or influence to Rock

Kind of this

>Interestingly, it is not entirely rockist to love rock, or to write about it. One may also care about R&B or norteño or bubblegum pop, but discuss them in a rockist way. The idea is built into the way people talk informally about what kinds of popular music interests them.
It's not about thinking rock is the centre of music, but the standard of it.
It has more to do with mindset than taste.

>>45556327
Rockism is inherently about the mindset of classic rock, hence the name

It's pretty clear

>>45556360
You don't have to like rock music to be rockist though is what I'm saying.

>>45556380
There's no valid source for that claim, for one.

Second, you wouldn't wanna call a classical fan, a soul fan or a pop fan a Rockist, because you would inherently be associated to Rock music and then you'd be the narrow-minded one.

Rockist attitudes can be pointed out on anyone, but a Rockist is always associated with Rock music, hence, the word.

>>45556443
>There's no valid source for that claim, for one
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockism
>Rockism, derived from this original usage, can be defined in more than one way, and it would be difficult to recognize one absolute meaning. While there are many vague interpretations of it, rockism is essentially believed to treat rock music as normative. From a rockist view, rock is the standard state of popular music.
Notice, it says nothing about taste or even being a fan of rock music, but to treat it as the norm for popular music.
Therefor, I COULD call a classical or soul or pop fan a rockist if they were acting as such.
Of course it has to do with rock music, but it has nothing to do with thinking it's the centre or peak of music as you claim.
Rockism is a funny word and I'm tired and want to sleep. Can just agree that it's a weird and leave it at that?

>>45556583
Wikipedia is not valid source to take as fact, especially without citations, that means any user wrote it

>Therefor, I COULD call a classical or soul or pop fan a rockist if they were acting as such.
Then you'd be only noting particular behaviors, and you'd look like a fool if you used the word seriously out of a rock related context

A rockist in itself, is what the word implies, it's not that hard

>>45556694
>Wikipedia is not a valid source to take as fact
It isn't really a well studied concept. We'd probably get as academic as Christgau or something, I don't see Wikipedia as to bad a source here.
It's more than what you've shown me thus far, anyways.
>Then you'd only be noting particular behaviors
And? Are they still not rockist for treating all music with a rock mindset, even if just in a few ways?

What does this even mean

>>45554337
>No jokes about active pickups or toob amps
Are you rapfags even trying?

this is even worse than the original one, and makes a lot less sense

>>45554449
I wonder how many teeth you lost biting that bait.

>>45555844
ur mom lol

>>45555984
You'll be back.

This is true for casual 'rockist's.

I only listen to the finest postmodern-post-everything-post-rock. I went to a concert with Godspeed You! Black Emperor and they spent 40 minutes quietly de-tuning their instruments before bowing the members of Sigur Ros while the audience were asked to participate by attempting to 'strum' the chains of snare drums. Shit was intense. Get on my level.

Rockism is the perspective that the stereotypical and idealized formulation of a rock band is the most fundamental and proper producer of music.

The most important element of this stereotype is the idea that a performer must play an important part in the composition of the material they perform. Other elements include the size and constancy of the ensemble, disrespect for vocalists who are not also instrumentalists, and ageism.

Rockism is a matter of musical values, less so of musical content. So in that way, somebody could be a rockist, but not enjoy rock music.
