/mu/ - Music (Temp full images)

You just don't like it.

>>55346876
never trust anyone who like CCR. They are the Stone Temple Pilots of older dadrock.

Its not their best. If you're getting bored going through the full albums start by going through best of compilations for those bands then use the tracks you're familiar with to anchor your interest through the albums.

skip to Zeppelin

Why do people try and force themselves to like something, it really blows my mind that you will go out of way to get into something.
If you don't like it, don't listen to it. Simple as.

you're probably addicted to the instant-gratification feeling you get from super-accessible music that makes you feel deep and artistic (e.g. /mu/core, art-rock in general), so you haven't cultivated the taste or knowledge required to appreciate great pop songwriting

you get bored by classical music too, right?

Honestly those old albums have a shitload of filler, especially the Rolling Stones

>>55346919
>Why do people try and force themselves to like something
>posts crazy frog

>>55346876
yes, no, maybe, shit, meme, dad, cuck

that's all I can say

>>55346919
How do you expect to expand your taste if you never leave your comfort zone?

But what should I have expected from a dumb frogposter

>>55346935
Fast and bulbous my friend

>>55346903
Whats wrong with both those bands?

>>55346876
Sticky Fingers bores me a bit now too but the other great Stones albums hold up, Exile in particular is incredible.

>>55346924
Are you trying to say that Sticky Fingers isn't very accessible?

>>55346949
I have reviewers doing this for me, why bother

>>55346964
they are very bad and boring copy cats.

>>55346988
Wow that really convince me faggot

>>55346919
I know that every genre has something to offer and I'd like to develop the ability to enjoy nearly all forms of quality music.

OP here. Heres the beginning of the list.
>>55346924
I enjoy accessible stuff like Mozart and Steve Reich but I haven't really dug into the genre yet. Definitely not opposed to it.

If you don't like the Stones there's something wrong with you. You probably just hate sex and fun.

>>55346994
>Album - artist
Kill her

>>55346988

>copycats
they really aren't comparable to STP, listen to Willy and the Poor Boys, it's great

>>55346994
She writes like a QT

Post pics

>>55346983
I'm saying that you need to appreciate good songwriting to enjoy the Stones, because they don't pleasure your ego with empty signals of depth like most of the music /mu/ considers to be good

>>55347023
She is pretty cute, I dig her

that's nice to hear

how so?

>>55347054
Lucky

And here I am wishing that someone even cared about me enough to spend time handwriting a list that long

My advice, dude? Don't treat it like you normally treat music. As in don't actively listen to it. Put it on in the background a few times and get a feel for it. If you force yourself through the list, you'll regret it because it'll make you feel annoyed instead of happy or whatever. Trust me on that one.

>>55347054
she also listens to the music her dad likes (daddy issues), lots of opportunities there for rough sex.

>>55347074
everything that was popular at the time

>>55346994
>tfw a gril will never do this for me

Those bands are all mediocre and didn't do anything to make Rock at all an artform.

Listen to classic Prog or just general Avantgarde (like TMR) but ignore all that bullshit.

>>55346994
She seems a bit on the autistic side.

>>55347123
you're going to have to be more specific than that

>>55347135
>prog made rock into an artform
lmao, how does it feel being 16 years old and just discovering the idea of music

>>55347135
now this is a meme I can get behind

>>55347147
they just suck in every aspect for me. you can still like them.

>>55347158
It made it more of an artform than shit like The Rolling Stones did.

>>55347135
Radiohead - (Nice Meme)

>>55347174
Rolling Stones made several of rocks most important seminal records though

>>55347180
Yes, they actually make some bit of art.
Your point?
>>55347192
>They sold a lot, so they are artistic!
Fuck off with your shit taste.

>>55346876
fuck you OP, Wild Horses is an amazing song.

>>55347192
rolling stones had some important singles but their LPs are pretty garbage

>>55347198
please point to me the part where he said RS were good because they sold a lot, because I read his sentence several times (and even backwards) and I can't find it

>>55347135
Oh come on. Prog is gud but that doesn't make classic rock less of an artform

>>55347174
maybe you should learn popular music history before you post clueless, inane bullshit like this
>>55347198
>Radiohead is art but the Rolling Stones aren't
okay, so your definition of art in rock music is literally "they sound weird." That's good to know.

>>55347225
He's saying the records are "important" and "seminal" but they offer next to nothing in artistic value. They serve the popular public but offer nothing challenging or topical in art.

Classic prog might not be great or the best, but at least it strove to make Rock more than some shitty crowdpleasing groove fest.

Rock hasn't evolved past the 60's. It has made nothing of artistic worth since about the 60's/70's. It's all now derivative.

Other music has moved on. Rock is stuck BEHIND its past.

Fucking laughable.

>Tfw like Classic rock.
>Tfw like other music.
>Tfw no qt gf to listen to good music with.
I like that album.
I'll take her if you don't want her OP.

>>55347218
Nah exile and sticky fingers are pretty tight, beggar's banquet is good.

Seriously, how long do you think this can last? Eventually she's going to see through your facade and feel patronized. Better to come clean now and admit it's not your bag. At least she'll respect your honesty even though she's still going to laugh at you with her dad behind your back.

For comparison, look at classical music: not once in the past 50-100 years has it remained static. Neoclassicism to Serialism to Minimalism to "Post-Minimalism" to God knows what.

Rock has been recycling the same brand(s) of music since the 60's. TMR is a masterpiece because it was one of the few Rock records that was relatively current, relatively of-its-time in art. As with Faust.

But since then Rock has just fallen further and further behind.

But what more can you expect from *POPULAR* music?

>>55347294
I've grown to enjoy music I previously hadn't before. It's not a facade, i genuinely want to listen to her classic rock recommendations because I think she has great taste in general. I just wanted to ask what /mu/ thought.

>>55346924

>>55347250
Most prog is literally the opposite of "challenging" or "topical", you dingus

At least regular rock, punk, folk, country, etc. tend to reflect or comment on the nature of its time period. You just like prog because it makes you feel like you're listening to something important, you middlebrow wanker

Do as >>55346916 say

So is someone here going to reverse search the pic and link her this thread or can we all go home now?

>>55347356
i guess he just likes the lyrics.

Sticky Fingers is a great album. You probably haven't developed a taste for classic rock because you skipped straight to the indie stuff.

>>55347356
>At least regular rock, punk, folk, country, etc. tend to reflect or comment on the nature of its time period.
Vapidly, unrelated to art; they are topical in the same way that Entertainment Weekly is topical.

>>55347405
please tell me your arguments linking prog to art

>>55347435
It's not strong: it's just that they (classic Prog anyways) try to experiment with longer forms, more sophisticated forms of tonality, etc.
I'm thinking of Larks Tongues in Aspic for instance.

>>55347435
prog has more notes and scales you never heard of. and, again, the awesome lyrics. i prefer stories about elves to songs about stupid, vulgar things like girls or politics

>>55347401
Not good classic rock anyway, I grew up on Tom Petty, Steve Miller, Boston and Eagles. That might actually be why I'm opposed to classic rock.

>>55346916
This.

>>55347456
>>55347459
so you like watered down bastardized classical but not the rock music that made it happening? interesting

LOL, the only reason this girl is courting you is because she loves forcing her musical tastes onto your naive ass. Like most people here do.

But seriously, you should give the first one on that list, Aftermath, a try. The UK edition especially, which is almost twice as long if I remember correctly. Between the Buttons (the successor) is their most experimental/artsy album so you might enjoy it.

>>55346994
It's really not the worst list. Sure it's a lot of classic rock, but if you're going to listen to classic rock, those are good choices. Though I'm sure she won't mind if you just listened to like 1 album per band. I'd never expect someone to listen to 50 fucking albums that I like.

Just she list any Bob Dylan albums? Which ones?

>>55346876
How can you hate Dead Flowers?

>>55346994
>lou reed - coney island baby

she is patrician, marry her

>>55347503
most prog dweebs do not know music theory, don't care about lyrics, have never actually challenged themselves and dived deep into music or art criticism.

They enjoy their little middlebrow social circles where the definition of musical depth is entirely self-referential. Pink Floyd is considered profound for being so bold and epic, even though their lyrics are bullshit and they lean on i-VI-VII to a fucking laughable degree. Don't even get me started on "fantasy" prog bands, which compare to regular rock music in about the same way that genre fiction compares to real 20th century literature

>>55347475
>Tom Petty, Steve Miller, Boston and Eagles
fag.

>>55347503
i just like the lyrics

>>55347526
Nah because she knows I already love Dylan

>>55347640
Oh, well then I'd go straight to listening to The Band, for obvious reasons

>>55346876

It's ok you just don't have a good ear for music.

>>55347589
>most prog dweebs

Every musical subgenre has its crappy fans

>>55347503
>>55347589
I listen to classical music primarily, actually.

>>55347135
I you like weird music, then this is fine. But don't say that two genres that almost nobody listens to have done more for music than Bob Dylan or the Rolling Stones. Broaden your horizons a bit, and you might develop a valid opinion once you discover music.

>>55348454
>But don't say that two genres that almost nobody listens to have done more for music than Bob Dylan or the Rolling Stones.
I'm not saying they "did more" I'm saying they were more artful. Big difference.

>>55346876
no crap she knows that stuff. daddy issues, daddies music

>>55348468
Classic rock was a revolution in music in both the 50's, and then later in the 60's.It became less about largely being background music, and more about listening closely to relateable music. That's what makes it art, is when people stop playing it, and actually listen. Any music can defined as art. It's a form of expression and telling a story, or relating to the consumer. That's art. It doesn't have to be weird or deep or complex to be art. We just have to let it reach out to us.

>>55348627
>Any music can defined as art. It's a form of expression and telling a story, or relating to the consumer.
I'm not saying it's not art, that would be stupid.
But it's low art. It's out of step with the art world.
That's why albums like TMR and Faust are amazingly artful: they were actually of their time. They weren't derivative records like Kid A, they were original yet still knowledgeably referential (for instance, how Beefheart chants "Come Out to Show Them").

>>55348671
To each his own. I personally don't care about the artistic value. I just like when something sounds great and echoes my current mood.

>>55348820
>To each his own. I personally don't care about the artistic value. I just like when something sounds great and echoes my current mood.
That's fine. For me the problem is that I feel I can get that same satisfaction from stuff like classical music/prog/avantgarde generally, but with additional artistic value to boot. IMO it's win-win.

But taste is a fickle thing, I don't mind.

>>55346924
kill yourself my man

>>55347263
this album is fucking toss

nothing happens

>>55346876
give the stuff that you don't like time to grow
skip to stuff that you get turned onto quickly and getting into those bands (led zep, etc.) will make it easier to get into bands like rolling stones

>>55346876
Try listening to Let it Bleed by The Rolling Stones. There must be some songs you heard before, and it's the most accessible tRS album ( can't believe I sound like tRS isn't accessible )

>>55346908
Literallymy modus operandi

>>55346876
Ignore all the /mu/ hate. If you want to hear a good Stones record then start with Exile on Mainstreet. Let it Bleed is also good but after that you really only need the greatest hits.

Show her rock and roll animal (live album from Lou Reed) and it impress her a bunch. It is just really epic versions of his best songs.

Led Zeppelin is really talented musically, all of them. Yeah they ripped off other musicians but they did wayyyy better. Focus on the first 4 albums. Honestly great music.

CCR is /fratcore/ but that is because it is fun, cool and easy to listen to. I will get hate for saying it but sometimes thats all you want from a band.

Jefferson Airplane is pretty boring IMO, just listen to the greatest hits

>>55350076

This, Dead Flowers is a GOAT country song

>>55350076
Threads finally getting back on track

>>55350076
agree with most of that but dismissing Houses Of The Holy and Physical Graffiti, no way!

Just listened through Beggars Banquet and really loved Sympathy for the Devil, No Expectations, Parachute Woman, Prodigal Son and Factory Girl. I just don't like the noisy wailing on Stray Cat Blues, I think its boring and below them as such talented songwriters.

Why is Sticky Fingers rated as their best album on rym? It's their most basic and boring approach to blues rock. I much prefer Beggars Banquet.

>>55347127

>>55346903
>I've never listened to CCR

>>55346964
You're disgusting and should feel ashamed

>>55347250
You're saying all this in 2015.

Since you've made it clear you don't know the history of popular music at all, why is anyone to believe you're basing this on anything but edge?

You have a very naive view of art.

>>55346903
literal autists browsing this board right now

Music is really enjoyable when you aren't pretentious OP

>>55351597
Look everyone someone who has no real human connections in his life.

CCR is comfy as fuck. I appreciate someone taking the time to try and like a band that was difficult to get into, but you have done the opposite and worked hard to hate a band you should just enjoy. Autism at its finest

>>55346994
>Not reccing The Doors s/t or Strange Days

Fucking DROPPED

>>55347174
Just realize that you are a narrow minded fuckwit

>>55346876
I really think The Stones and CCR are nothing special, and you should avoid studio Zeppelin, but check out the live stuff

>>55346971
this. Sticky Fingers sounds dated, is inconsistent, and is one of those albums that's more famous for it's highlights than for being an actual masterpiece.

Can't You Hear Me Knocking is gold though

>>55351691
Thats 19 of the 50 or so albums bud.

>>55346994

Honestly I never enjoyed the Stones, or Neil Young. Doors are passable.

Zeppelin is God tier.
Creedence is worth a listen.
Crosby, Stills and Nash is worth it.
Bowie's not for everyone I tend to like his later stuff actually.

>>55347054
Girls who smoke are kinda hot

What do people think of Black Sabbath? I know they're more metal, or for their first album blues rock, and I think they're a pretty great band.
