does it bother anyone else that there have been several threads recently saying "convince me why [band name] doesn't suck." ? since when did music become about arguments or proof of an opinion? i apologize for my angst, for some reason it just really gets under my skin.

I'm with you on this entirely.
Convince me that this thread has a valid point.
Do you have any proof that this gets under your skin?

My favourite band is Phil Elverum.

it's a valid point. just ignore it. if people put music down to pro's and con's they shouldn't really be bothering with it.

Every six weeks I listen to something different :-)
I don't think these threads are a bad thing - it's good for people to point out what they especially like about a band. Often it's something that the OP never noticed while listening to the artist.
I find that the threads are enjoyable to read - it's interesting to see what aspect of a band appeals to people the most

Don't misunderstand me, I feel the same. After revisiting it a week ago, I really only enjoy a good handful of the songs. A -> B Life still remains to be my favorite.

Really? I love that album, but Catch for Us the Foxes and Brother, Sister are brilliant. I feel as though they're at their best when they combine elements of indie and post hardcore.

I really felt their best was when they hacked at the post-hardcore. It was a pretty innovative album for the time it came out.

haha Briewer has good taste in music, and Phil Elverum has a greater following than just him and I. In fact, at the time he released Mount Eerie it wasn't uncommon in indie circles to believe he was the greatest artist currently making music. Besides, I like Phil Elverum more than Briewer. That's why Briewer is always upset.

NO I AM COOLER THAN YOU BECAUSE I LIKE PHIL ELVERUM MORE THAN YOU DO!
ALSO I LIKE THE LIBERTINES MORE THAN DAVID, AND WEAR TWO BERETS AND WRITE FOR PITCHFORK.

Dude, when I piss, I piss out free Libertines albums and give them to David so he can strip off each instrument and learn the tabletures for all of them. Best guitar player ever.
No, but I have a shitty taste in music: City Of Caterpillar, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Sun O))), Circle Takes The Square, The Number Twelve Looks Like You, and M83. Yeshshireehee.
Hadn't realized The Libertines stopped being shitty while I was away. Anything that David likes is the ideal musical group. Hail The Libertines, Huzzah. Time to troll in the brand new thread and molest anyone's brain with incessant rambling about how Say Anything stinks.
