    but the embarrassing visage that is that thumbnail tells me not to listen

     

    actually I listened to it and it wasn't that bad

    Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

    Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra

    What's Jack Black doing in that video.

    I don't know. Let me know if you find out. :lol:

    No mind to think. No will to break. No voice to cry suffering.

    I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

    Wish I knew which music to listen to.

     

    I'm open to any suggestions, but only if it's REALLY good.

    What do you like?  Are there bands and styles you usually dislike?

    Hmmm, late 90s music not necessarily my strong point.  Are we thinking 96-200? Anyhow, I'll leave you with 1997 Portishead:

     

     

    Yay!

    I knew Vengaboys had another hit locally other than We Like to Party, but if you'd asked me to name it at gunpoint I'd have failed.  But this was it.

    Weezer did a pretty good cover of Africa. I can't even tell the difference, but you don't need to change perfection.

    I've enjoyed her releases on Numbers. I've only listened to the albums singles, of which I liked Faceshopping the most. If I'm being honest, it's hard for me to connect with a song like Ponyboy thematically speaking. No doubt her work is groundbreaking.

    Yeah, I was just discussing the album with a friend and we both had a very similar feeling to yours. For me it's just that the kind of imaginary she goes for here, which is similar to that of Arca and the likes too, is not one that's entirely attractive to me. But there's a few really good songs in the album amidst all the saccharine pop and somewhat aimless IDM that surrounds them. It's worth a listen.

    I almost mentioned Arca myself, same thing there. But I'm not the type of person to dismiss a legitimate creative prowess and talent just because it misses some mark by my own interests. As far as saccharine pop, I found myself really enjoying the PC Music output around the same time as that early Sophie stuff was coming out.
