How do you know if it's pap if you've not read it, old bean?
Quite apart from which, the combination of you defending wossisname, saying a certain someone should lighten up and your dismissal of my posts here suggests that basically, you just disagree, and therefore are saying my posts are pap. |

Well, i posted before on this thread, and i was also surprised that coming here a week later this is still going on.
I agree with both RogueProcess and XanderBeans (refering to the last 2 pages on this thread)
What both of say is not opposed to the other one's ideas, so no point arguing.
True that music, a song, has to have something that elevates it to a standard that is better than any of it's parts, like RogueProcess said.
the same song affects different people on different leves, does not have the same effect obviously, which is what makes the whole concept subjective.
Then again, it is somewhat frustrating that some sounds jumbled together with no deep "knowledge" of music or how it works, is suddently famous cause it sounds good to a whole lot of people (who most of times have about the same literacy in composing as the people palying it)
now for John Hopkins, man, one has to love you, you're the ultimate neutral analist xD, you answer, and you talk about music styles objectively, making sense of it, drawing the line here and there and never with misguided passion (about the posts on this thread as i haven't too many other posts on other threads)
okay as for me, there are only a few bands/songs that i like that don't have lyrics that touch me. otherwise the lyrics mean a lot (i also don't listen to emo as a rule, not that it matters anyways)
just for once can everyone accept eachother and keep it nice and quiet 
(the concept stated on the above sentence is utopical and therefore supposedly practically impossible to acomplish, but still, give it a try) |

Wow, and here I thought I was writing the most immature sh** in this thread back on the previous page. |

I disagree.
Now to prove my maturity, I'm going to kick you in the nuts and then run away. |

This topic = tl;dr
But, I think TC misses the point of MCR's most recent studio release.
It's all about theatricality, bombast, the sheer over-the-****ing-top-ness of it all.
So what if the music's mainly power chords? Why does that matter? They're not trying to be Ynwie Malmsteen for christ's sake.
They're just having some fun.
And if you can't see that's what they're doing, then there's something wrong with you.
And yes, I bought The Black Parade and I enjoy it immensely.
I also own albums from pretty much every genre, from Doom Metal to Death Metal, to hardcore, electronica, ambient, post-rock, whatever.
I'm sick of this polarisation between groups of people that are all equally as close minded and petty as each other.
I love death metal but I in no way associate myself with that crowd because for the most part it's made up of elitist douchebags.
I love emo, the older stuff ala Rites of Spring and the newer stuff ala Atreyu, but I in NO WAY associate myself with that crowd because SURPRISE SURPRISE, for the most part it's made up of elitist douchebags.
I don't associate myself with the electronica, ambient, industrial, hardcore, or anything crowds. Because they're all full of close minded douchebags who all believe that their favourite genre is the Aryan Race of the music world.
People need to grow the **** up and open their minds a bit.

Hmm, I wouldn't say that everyone in a given 'scene' are automatically closed-minded douchebags. I have at varying points been very heavily involved in the local goth/industrial scene in Edinburgh, but I always try to keep an open mind regarding the music I listen to, as many of my friends in the 'scene' are, too. Sure, there are undoubtedly some who are a bit more elitist than myself, but really, it's nowhere near as bad as you make out! |
