/mu/ - Music (Temp full images)

Agreed

But this is true

That's only unpopular among one person on /mu/.

>>55035869
Everyone irl say I'm wrong when I say how good Blurs, Gorillaz and Damons solo artist work is

Noel Gallagher is as good as a songwriter as Albarn, maybe not as versatile and adventurous, but they're more or less at the same level. Liam is a waste of space.

This is true though

>>55035758
Rock is dead

>>55035931
Yeah definitely goes, Damon > Noel > Liam. Maybe its different from my experience because I'm from the North of England and everyone I know idolises Oasis and shits on Blurs music

>>55035930
thats because you didnt compare it to oasis

>Christine McVie is lame
>Genesis were really really bad
>Carly Rae Jepsen is the best songwriter of our Generation
>The second Stone Roses album is a lot better than the first one

>>55035758
That's only controvertial to plebs that love Wonderwall and /mu/ memers.

any one that can listen to Tool can "get" Swans.

also Kirsten Supine is the second best song on To Be Kind while Oxygen and She Loves Us are the two worst

>>55035970
Agreed. Kanye West is the only true rockstar left.

>>55035970
*phone ring ring*

*Demon alborne pick up*

>"hello damin here?"

>Rock is ded

>"No."

>"I guess it's time for burl to come back...from the daed!?!"

>>55035989

>Carly Rae Jepsen is the best songwriter of our generation

Fact.

>>55035989
>The second Stone Roses album is a lot better than the first one

I'd say they're equally great.

>>55036003
BUT WHAT ABOUT SALLY?

- DJ sets are better than live performances when it comes to dance music
- Digital music is much better than vinyl for mixing
- Disclosure made some good tracks
- Bright Eyes, Death Cab and The Smiths are boring as fuck
- Techno and electronic music in general is much more interesting than rock these days
- Meddle is the best Pink Floyd album
- Speak to Me/Breathe is the best PF track
- Our Love to Admire is as good as Turn on the Bright Lights

>>55036185
I can tell I would hate you irl

Tech N9ne is possibly the most underrated and unappreciated hip hop artist. He has at least 100 quality songs.

>>55036265
I'm sure we could be friends, it's just music

Fly Lo will never do anything as interesting/be as interesting to people as when he released Cosmogramma

>>55036305
>>55036305
agreed

oasis > gorillaz > blur

>>55036275
Good Rap Music was invented in 2013 with the invention of Club Bangerz. Kid Ink > Old Guys like Tech N9ne.

Indie Cindy was better than critics made it out to be
It was a logical transition for the pixies to be more poppy.
A Surfa Rosa like album would just be seen as a rehash to please fans

>>55036185
>Techno and electronic music in general is much more interesting than rock these days

I'd say it's been like that since early 2000s

>>55036003
>blur fans calling others plebs
time to stop

>>55036337
I like him but in all honesty that was his hype peak.
He can either continue doing what he does or go more commercial to attain a larger audience

Early 90s: Oasis > Blur
Late 90s: Blur > Oasis

>>55035970
- some dude in 1972

Animal Collective are shit

Good image aesthetics are actually very important for a musical artist

>>55035758
But Noel wrote "Live Forever" and "The Masterplan" and "Listen Up"...

Not really even a competition. I don't think Damon ever wrote anything that said as much as those songs, and I love blur.

Warpaint's self titled album was mostly drivel

Grouper's Ruins album was hugely overrated

>>55036457
>no Slide Away

>>55036390
You are right mate, thanks for the correction.
>>55036410
Cosmogramma was definitely his peak, but idk, he might surprise us with something new and good someday. The dude's got talent

Radiohead's only good option is to make pretty music with strings

Blur was always the more original and catchier of the groups, though both were good. Anyone with half a brain could see this.

What's funny though is that for their final album Oasis put out their best yet, possibly better than anything either group did.

>>55036436
everybody knows that, right ? It's just hard to swallow

Kanye needs to quit music

Maybe do that fashion thing from home and thus have more time for his family

His music will also just get increasingly worse if he continues
He had a good run

>>55036487
Slide Away is excellent, although I think it would be tougher to defend tbh

never will understand how people like blur, fucking puts me to sleep and ive heard most of their discog though i mostly stick to classical so that might be it

>>55036586
Too many hippies here act like music is the only important thing and they try to block out the importance of marketing and visual aesthetics

west coast g-funk >>>>> east coast boom bap

random access memories was a good album, and disco is usually better than punk

>>55036575

Personal Opinion but Plastic Beach and Demon Days are two albums that outshine every other album either artist have created.

>>55036575

are you being serious? It's only slightly better than DBTT, which is their worst IMO. Although I hear brits love it for some reason

Definitely Maybe > Be Here Now > Morning Glory >>> SOTSOG = Heathen Chemistry > Dig Out Your Soul >> Don't Believe the Truth

>>55036575
yikes

as of 2015, classical fans are the most annoying people on /mu/. trap rap fans and poptimists were pretty bad for the last 2 years but now they're finally dying down, so now the biggest cancer on /mu/ is /classical/ general spamming "art music" in every thread they see

>>55036611
I agree slightly. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is a peak he can never reach again. Yeezus was incredible but I feel hes lost that anger due to the birth of his child. Really don't want his next album to sound the way his recent music has.

Bob Dylans music is a chore to listen to, Johnny Cash is far nicer on the ears

Morrissey has gone to shit after The Smiths broke up.

>>55036636
Each album is a completely different sound. Have you listened to Gorillaz discog and Damons solo stuff?

>>55036685
I'm sorry man but I would consider that to be a pleb opinion.
I still respect you tho

>>55036575
My nigger, it's still behind Definitely Maybe for me though, but a great album

>>55036745
Who disagrees with that? lol

>>55036780
fite me irl

this is the best oasis album

>>55036839
now this is controversial

yo la tengo are the most "almost good, but not quite" band ever. everything i've heard from them is pleasant and nice and all, but just missing that "it" factor to them. the most 6/10 band ever

>>55036817
I mean Gorillaz are pretty unique and made some very nice stuff, but I wouldn't go as far as to say they released the best music ever created by man. It's still very Radio-friendly and not that groundbreaking. Maybe you should listen to more music before making such a statement.
cheers

Jay-Z only has three good albums. Reasonable Doubt, The Blueprint and The Black Album.

>>55036686
I can see why people maybe don't like it, because the songwriting is very un-Oasis. It has the most input from the other band members than any other album I believe, and even Noel's songs don't have that usual goofy edge to them.

Despite this, it's amazing how the album works as a loose concept album. The psychedelic sound works better than even their early stuff. Liam sounds great on it, maybe better than he ever did after sounding like crap on the last two albums. It toes the line of sounding angry but doesn't quite cross into an embarrassing tantrum. The guitars just sound great—but again, un-Oasis.

>>55036787
That's probably their most similar other album, too. I prefer Morning Glory just for the shorter pop songs (ironic considering I like Dig the best).

>>55036910
have you heard electr-o-pura ?
also try listening to it while chilling with a girl on a cold night

gorillaz : s/t
blur: 13
oasis: definitely maybe

>>55036928
He didn't say it's the best album ever but the best album by either artist (Blur and Oasis)

>>55036878
I don't understand all the hate it gets tbh

>>55036955
Its embarrasing how on Watch the Throne Jay-Z gets outshined by Kanye in every song too

>>55036732
Been to those threads a few times. As someone who likes "classical" music, those guys are pretty annoying

itt: no controversy

>>55036991
whoops my bad then

>>55036928
Just the best by either artist

>>55036839
theres some pretty great song songs on here tbh but its not the best

>>55036999
The Spice Girls > Pink Floyd.

>>55036999
I think Tremonti is on his way to being one of the best guitarists of our time

>>55036425
realist post concerning blur/oasis

>>55037070
The saddest part is that I'm aware I like it so much because of my nostalgia goggles ;__;

>>55036960
Interesting. Yeah, I wouldn't say that it's a bad album really, I think "The Turning", "Shock of the Lightning", "I'm Outta Time", "To Be Where There's Life" (A fucking awesome song really), and "The Nature of Reality" are the good songs, whereas I think the other ones lack the spirit of the band. BUT, if you're able to appreciate as an un-Oasis album, that's pretty cool, but even putting it in that context, I couldn't say that it even rivals the first three in terms of great songs.

>>55037094
>>55037070
yeah let's be real "Stop Crying Your Heart Out" is one of their best.

>>55036960
DM is pretty much the album that really got me into music, and though I discovered tons of other great stuff since then I still think Live Forever remains one of the best songs ever written. I like DOYS because it's a much more psychedelic, 'moving' album, and also more consistent than their other stuff. There is not one really bad song on it, I even like High Horse Lady

Britney Spears- Hit me Baby One More Time is the greatest Pop song of all time. You give that song to any female artist and its a hit. The chorus, verses, beat, combine perfectly to create the Pop Song which can never be matched in its own genre. Sit down, and listen to that song with an open mind and you'll realise how perfect that song is.

This is now an Oasis thread, guys.

What are your favorite B-sides, bros?

Mine are: Talk Tonight, The Masterplan, Listen Up, Acquiesce, The Fame, and Half the World Away.

>>55037189
They'll never hit that greasy pop charm of the first three again. The closest they come here is Shock of the Lightning, which is, well, electrifying. Definitely one of their best singles.

I know it's a trope, but its strength really is that the songwriting is more "mature". It hits a snag in the middle of the album, but when you listen to the first 4 Noel songs and then realize the last four on the album might actually be better... that's when I realized I loved the album.

>>55037278

This is probably a common Youtube search result by now, but I didn't agree with you until I heard this version of it.

>>55037437
rockin chair
listen up
fade away

they shouldve slid some of the masterplan into morning glory in place of the interludes honestly

>>55037437
Listen Up
Fade Away
Going Nowhere
Alive

>>55037489
yeah man. The b-sides from Morning Glory are some of my favorite material. Personally I would've switched out the interludes and maybe Hey Now or Hello, but the album does work perfectly as it is.

>>55037489
I think the only thing that would have worked is if Acquiesce replaced the inferior Hello, otherwise anything added would make the album overlong, and you can't just take out those cheesy songs like She's Electric, can you?

...those interludes were from a b-side, by the way

>>55037482
dope cover

oh common
Blur is so much better than Oasis and Damon is so much better than the Gallagher's

this new album seem pretty shite, though

>>55037376
Listening to it right now. I actually forgot how much I liked it. Got any other recommendations? Any other iconic pop tunes? I've been wanting to give pop a chance, but I don't know where to start.

>>55037826
you can try killing you'reslef as a start

>>55037870
>you'reslef

there's so many mistakes here that i don't even know where to start

>>55037870
Thanks. Never heard of that album. You should try getting fucked by a Clydesdale

>>55035758
great obviously true statement op

>>55037826
I don't really like the Pop genre but that song is perfect in every way for its genre.

Just off the top of my head but Apologize by Timbaland and One Republic is a great pop song, Here Without you by Three Doors Down, Take on Me by A-Ha, Mr Blue Sky by ELO, When Doves Cry by Prince, Don't you Want me by Human League. But imo the best pop song other than Hit Me Baby One More Time is Fantasy by Mariah Carey.

Its such a varied genre and so big its hard to think of essential songs but they're just some I can think of which are indisputably great songs.

>>55038104
Thanks, m8

>>55037437
Whatever

>>55037826
Max Martin is a very talented musician. I relistened to a bunch of songs he wrote (I want it that way, Baby one more time, etc), and he's very talented. Listening to it with a developed ear, unlike as a kid, you see he is talented. He uses backing vocals very well.

"Kid A" is the worst song off of Kid A besides "Treefingers"

Graduation is a solid album, and Drunk and Hot Girls is a fun, pretty good track.

>>55038286

I know a music critic and he has HMBOMT as the second best song of all time behind Billie Jean.

>>55036434
Everyone thinks this

>>55036611
he should have quit after college drop-out

>>55038412
I agree that graduation is mostly good, but there is some awful shit on that album.

That Lil Wayne song.
Jesus christ.
