Bad opinions [ARCHIVED] • Page 734

Pornography, The Head on The Door, Seventeen Seconds > Disintegration

 

I don't get the Arcade Fire hate, I find them a bit of a tiresome listen all at once, but their best tracks are some kinda 1970s fire - Sprawl, Keep the Car Running, Neighborhood, Everything Now... their range is at the very least interesting.


My unpopular opinion of the day is that I do not get Lana Del Rey. Her cinematic sound is so boring to me (Video Games), and her vocals just don't work for anything upbeat (Summertime Sadness). Her writing is solid I'm sure, but I feel like she's famous for being pretty and brooding.

 

At the very least I would agree with The Head on the Door

 

Head On The Door is tops for sure, but Disintegration is probably number two for me. Maybe Wish

 

I've always been partial to Wish

 

wish and bloodflowers

 

Disintegration is their best. Head, Wish and Kiss Me next.

 

I agree 100% with everything in this post.

 

"A Man I'll Never Be" by Boston hangs with the absolute top tier of rock songs from the 70s.

 

Even the garbage last sentence?

 

What is garbage about it?

 

Going to listen to Arcade Fire for the rest of my afternoon now to spite all you heathens jk, listen to what you enjoy everyone

 

Reducing an artist's success to her looks, and assuming people only got into her because of her attractiveness. You manage to insult both Lana Del Rey and her fans in the same sentence, and on top of that, with misogynistic undertones.

 

I love Lana, her music has something magical in it

 

Just found this thread randomly & decided to come in & say that Modern Baseball's album Ghost is far & above their best, & when I return to them I don't ever listen to their first 2 full lengths anymore.

 

Always hated that band tbh. Slaughter Beach Dog is pretty good though

 

Holy Ghost is the only material I like from them and even then it's just like, fine. I love the song "Mass" though.

 

Just Another Face is great, that’s about all I really like though

 

Bear vs Shark > At the Drive In

love both bands, but as time goes on I’ve found myself revisiting BvS more often

 

100%

 

why are they being compared? Do people usually compare them?

 

I love The Mars Volta (up through Amputechture) but either can’t stand or have no interest in anything else they’ve done. Past that album, side projects, pre-TMV, etc... it’s like those five years were blessed.

 

They’re both post-hardcore bands.

 

I've realized that I like the first Voidz album more than a decent amount of Strokes albums

 

gonna make a list of my 100 “fave”/best guitarists, bc i’m at this level of quarantine boredom.
