What is a hipster? Look at this fucking hipster...

All dogshit^^

well you can at least still go and hear Fall being moody old bastards,
these days Mozza does radio bore and writes about how great he is
anyway

Hipsters,
loads of em down here in Bournemouth,
and the funny thing is, they have all the awareness of a carrot,
the uniform is sooooooo strict and now includes the shit single speed conversion,
I know I sound old but really, do they think that they are being radical and original with that look?

YouTube - Radiohead Fan Speaks Out

I saw the main guy in the video doing stand up at the stand in edinburgh, years ago. To this day one of the funniest comedians I've ever seen and I don't even know his name!*

*Although this is grade a hipster rhetoric "into it before it was on the telly", not knowing who it is clears me from having the smug air of authority, I think.

Muse

^ +1

Guns&Roses. Now, that's a proper shit band.

Muse is another band who used t be good imo.

Good band for me - Deftones (you probably haven't heard of them)

As anecdotal as it is, everyone I've ever met who likes G&R has been a tool.

Weren't most people into them around 2000? They were also usually a fan of Limp Bizkit and Korn. Ugh.

^I put Adrenaline on the other day, used to love it but I'm struggling with the slaughtered pig vocals these days.

Were rather better than their Nu-metal peers.

Does anyone ACTUALLY like g&R though?
Like properly into them and stuff.

yeah someone on here (i forget who) got really riled up when i commented on their total lack of quality

Bored, my own summer and back to school
Yhus pleases. Deftones are(were) awesome

Really?
I thought they were just the kind of bland crap you sing along to when your shitfaced in the pub, didn't realise they (still) had real fans.

Still are imo. Need their bassist back

Limp Bizkit = severe meh
Korn, some were alright I guess.

Saturday Night Wrist is a solid album

I see no arguing here, it seems there's a pretty unanimous disliking of G&R.

i think you'll find the most overrated band are Radiohead, followed by U2

Naming them 2 in the same sentence is a sacrilege.
U2 is proved to be shit, Radiohead is proved to be the total opposite.

I know some.

multipal personalities?

Morrissey became a pastiche of himself and eventually redundant, but 'Hatfull of Hollow' (the Peel sessions) was a great album, and I always thought the line from 'There is a light that will never go out' - 'And if a ten ton truck, kills the both of us, to die by your side, well the pleasure - the privilege is mine.' was quite romantic in its own way, assuming you get run over at the same time. The Fall are beyond reproach and it is wrong to group Radiohead in with Coldplay and bands like Snowplough etc.
