Who here is nostalgic for 2007-2010 era p4k buzzbands?I know I sure am.
yo. best times.
ayyyy good shit yano
>>50793566MGMT
>>50793566Isn't that era of p4k also generally considered Tumblrcore?
O.N.E. is GOAT
>>50793566For Emma
Beach House - Teen Dreamhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCJL4dVPd6M
>>50793777>>50793682p4k never liked those two though
Dirty Projectors - Bitte Orcahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0miqzYjHct4
Deerhunter Halcyon Digest
>>50793842Vicky is the GOAT waifu

music was better back in the good old daysnow we only have stupid mememusic
anyone else like caribou's new album?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNOdF4zh9Kg
>>50794518p4k always liked Manitoba / Caribou though, not just 2007-2010. Also he's not really a p4k exclusive dude, his material has gotten pretty respected errywhereOur Love is dece, his fourth best after Up In Flames, Andorra, and Swim
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzRc-WdC6q0
>>50793566>the summer of 2010 is long over with>this new decade is almost halfway done
Times New Viking will always be my favorite buzzband.
Dude 2009 was the GOAT, p4k-core was supreme.EmbryonicBitte OrcaVeckitamestMPPCuban Linx pt IIPhoenixPsychic ChasmsThe EcstaticHospiceBromstBlue RecordYeah, that was good shitI don't visit p4k anymore, because I can't recapture that magic.
This entire thread brings me back to my early college days of '09-'10, browsing /mu/, reading hipster runoff and smoking weed every day. Simpler times.>damn...
>>50794776they were so bad tho
>>50794814Same here, Anon. :^)
>>50794894Nice, dude. What are you up to now? Post-grad life? Favorite buzzbands of 2k9? What do you listen to now and how has it changed over the course of the last 4-5 years?
>>50793566>>50794814Grizzly Bear and AnCo aren't exactly 'buzzbands.'
>>50793703Pre-2010/2011 noIt all ended up being adopted into Tumblrcore tho, namely shit like The xx and shitty average "lol so indie!" bands like Two Door Boring Ass Shitema Club.
>>50795233But they were in 2009. Man, /mu/ was littered with those two images along with Bitte Orca, Hospice, Logos... Basically this entire collage (>>50794795)
>>50794795Goddamn, /mu/ was actually good around that time too.
>>50795233grizzly bear are literally the quintessential buzzband
>tfw there will never be another Summer 2009 and 2010>tfw i still listen to shit from those years regularly >tfw 2010 still feels like last year>tfw chillwave is dead>tfw used to read Hipster Runoff Daily and laugh my ass off>tfw when that was the real end of the indie/hipster years
>>50794795>tfw listened to so many of these albums in my first year at uni>tfw now stuck in a dead-end job and faced with constant disappointment at what constitutes modern p4k-coreI didn't ask for this feel anon
>>50794795>Bird-BrainsWas it p4k-core?I love that album, a shame i just found out about her this year
Eh, give it 10-15 years and in the 2020s this shit will be right back. Right now 90s nostalgia is riding it out,
>>50795400i think it got BNM
Im gonna get this shit framed one day, fuck it
>>50795419Nah, just checked it got a 6.8, the followup in 2011 got BNM though, hmm
>>50795291Yeah, way before "pleb" and constanza, we were way more creative, lots of good OC, lots of trolling other sites. We had GOOD tripfags like Bill Murray and Jonathan.Anon, was generally more mature.Fuck, 09 /mu/ will never come back
>>50794814me too!!!are you alsooo frighteneeeeeeeeeed around the college in my mini cooper submarine>damn...
>>50793566>>50793842>>50793977>>50794027>>50794252>>50794692>>50794719>>50794814>>50794914>>50795564All great bands and albums. Not "buzzbands" in the slightest.
>>50795722They generated a lot of "buzz" on /mu/, p4k, and elsewhere.Instead of arguing about the term "buzzband" gtfo this thread and drown yourself in the toilet.orcontribute to the dialogue
>>50795564/mu/ can come back to its former glory if it stops being so full of try hards. All those "yo mum is a shit album lol", "le ebin meme xD xD xD", "meme-genre, is shit", "lol dadrock gtfo", "le right generashun", "all /mu/core is shit I'm way better than that", etc. spamming are what bring the board down.
>>50795346>tfw when that was the real end of the indie/hipster yearsI think the definitive end to that era was LCD Soundsystem's last show.
I would not consider these buzzbands, especially because many of them received unanimous acclaim.But yeah, I love Grizzly Bear. They will be releasing a new album next year.
>>50795821And when Broken Social Scene went on hiatus.
>>50795821>I think the definitive end to that era was LCD Soundsystem's last show.it felt like the end of an era, certainly
>>50794027Incorrect.>>50795814Terrible taste and [s4s] worship in conjunction with bad taste apologists (you) are what is bringing this board down.
>>50793566Veckatimest is a nearly perfect chamber pop album. >dat while you wait for the others riff
>>50795903but deerhunter are a buzzband
>>50795903You don't seem to realize that /mu/core is actually some good shit. Not the best shit around of course, but are great recs for some entry-level yet good music for some genres. I bet you think Radiohead are objectively "bad" and they're all talentless.
>>50795903...How can an album be incorrect?
>>50795964Kid A is great, ok computer is legitimately not that good though, i have no idea why its /mu/core
>>50795953Incorrect.>>50795969see >>50795953 , the premise behind posting the album.>>50795964>You don't seem to realize that /mu/core is actually some good shit. Much of it is awful. >entry-levelUseless descriptor.>I bet you think Radiohead are objectively "bad" and they're all talentless.I bet you think saying "objectively" without knowing what it means makes you look smart.Ignoring your inability to address anything that I've said, of course.
>>50796051>cryptogram, microcastle, halcyon digest and monomania all get BNM>'t-they're not a buzzband g-guys i swear it'are you delusional? Do you feel special for listening to Deerhunter?
>>50796092>>cryptogram, microcastle, halcyon digest and monomania all get BNMIs this supposed to be relevant ? Do you have a definition of buzzband which is so vague as to lose all actual meaning as the pejorative you so desperately want it to be ? >are you delusional?I appear to be the only rational one here, so far.>Do you feel special for listening to Deerhunter?Pretty blatantly loaded question, but no, plenty of people enjoy Deerhunter. Feeling special because of external things is silly.
>>50795799still not buzzbands. why dont you stop being such a faggot
>>50796173Deerhunter was a buzzband, but buzzband doesn't mean that they aren't a great band
>>50796173buzzband isn't a pejorative you retard, it just means bands that were hyped by p4k between 2007-2011
>>50793566>>50793589>>50793607>>50793777>>50793842>>50793682>>50793977>>50794027>>50794518>>50794814>>50794914Fuck these albums were my first intro to non-radio music in high school. All of these albums tie that entire chunk of my life together. I feel really empty thinking about it now. Where did all my friends go?
>>50796197Sigh.>>50796215>buzzband isn't a pejorative Demonstrably false>you retardPlayground insults, although I can't say I expected better.> it just means bands that were hyped by p4k between 2007-2011Mm, no. I mean, that's obviously what you want it to mean, but no, that is not what it does (or should) mean. Feel free to back up any of your statements with a citation, by the way.
>>50796354its like you really have autism
>>50796354>demonstrably false>doesn't demonstrate
>>50796365>a-autismYou don't even know the meaning of the playground insults that you're slinging, that's cute.>>50796393>>50796175>>50795722>>50795233de·mon·stra·blyClearly and undeniably.
>>50796473please clearly and undeniably prove that buzzband is a pejorative then
I miss that. That' when /mu/ still talked about music I liked.Even as recently as 2011.I remember a time when you couldn't go 15 minutes without someone talking about BTBAM's Colors. Like so much so that it was considered sub-/mu/core.Now you are lucky to even see it posted.
Damn, this thread took a nosedive for the worst. All I wanted was some nostalgia with my bros for simpler times. Can you arguing idiots knock it off? Go outside for once.>>50793589>>50794795>>50794814>>50795346>>50795348>>50795564These guys get it.
>>50796621Fuck, I remember that too! It was Colors and Cross by Justice that were HUGE around that time. Like, non-stop posting. Back when the /mu/ experts images were a thing.
>>50796500I have just clearly pointed out several examples of people having a negative reaction to music they [supposedly] enjoy being labeled as "buzzbands"Do you not understand that language is a two-way street ? Your "intent" means jack shit in light of the way it is perceived by others- and taking into account the embarrassingly condescending ways in which >>50795799 and >>50796092were carried out, it's a natural conclusion that someone is trying to coax others into an emotional snafu.Again, feel free to back up any of your statements with a citation.>>50796655You're whining about people arguing in a thread instead of posting (mostly) trash music that you allegedly listened to because a joke of a music journalism site rated them highly for the sake of nostalgia. Barring how pathetic that is, I'd have to say that I'm raising the quality of the thread.
>>50796762i can't believe you're actually taking the time to type these responses outis the way people use "buzzband" actually worth discussing
>>50796867My bet is he's making his responses that way cause he thinks looking like an autist is funny
>>50796051>most of /mu/core is awfulReally? awful = 0/10 or 1/10, more or less. You REALLY think most of /mu/core is that bad? wow such high standards, you sure must be a patrician.
>>50796867It takes on average about a minute to type up a wall of text which is apparent in my wording as I don't often proofread my posts.>is the way people use "buzzband" actually worth discussingEmpirical evidence says yes,>>50796959You don't know what autism is.>>50797065>awful = 0/10 or 1/10, more or less...are you new to music, or just discussing it ? Serious question, not everybody rates things the same way that you do.Your entire post is a straw man, by the way.
>>50797130Well am I supposed to know what's your special little rating system? When a regular person says something is awful, usually it means its bottom quality. That's how words work. But feel free to give some examples of what you consider excelent.
>>50797449>Well am I supposed to know what's your special little rating system?It's amusing how you are actually showing legitimate symptoms of autism by not understanding this. Assigning a numerical value to your own special snowflake definition of awful and then acting appalled that not everyone feels that way puts you in the wrong, not anybody else.>When a regular person says something is awful, usually it means its bottom quality. No, they do not. They usually mean "Very bad or unpleasant.">That's how words work."Words work based on my own personal definition only" >But feel free to give some examples of what you consider excelent. [sic]

Assigning a numerical value to your own special snowflake definition of awful and then acting appalled that not everyone feels that way puts you in the wrong, not anybody else.I was giving exemples of ratings people would visualize when someone teels them something is "awful".

They usually mean "Very bad or unpleasant."Depends.>But feel free to give some examples of what you consider excelent. [sic]So?
>>50797767>Good luck trying to communicate in the real world.I don't need luck when I actually do have a basic understanding of language and the way it works, in addition to what people _actually_ mean when they say things.

Basically, you are "so upset" that you are "greentexting things which were not said verbatim in the post of the other", while I demonstrably was not. You cannot win this line of arguing because you cannot keep up because you are a third rate "Friendo" clone.
