Unpopular Music Opinions

[Ello Sailor]

Suck my whole ass.

[Kevin Davis]

Or Bill Callahan, for that matter. Or Songs: Ohia.

That entire Sad Folko Dad subgenre is an immediate turnoff for me

(This is not a personal attack on Simple Torture)

I think Oldham has transcended the Sad Folko Dad thing and just evolved into more of a general weirdo -- in fact probably some of the happiest, goofiest music in my whole collection is by him. And I've always thought Bill Callahan was pretty funny. Molina is the only one of those guys that just feels like a hardcore saddo to me (and unquestionably my least favorite of those three guys).

I understand lumping them together though.

i like the national a lot (until around their like, 2010 shit) but I support making fun of them

at their best they're like neutered interpol but always were much more resonant to me

[Ello Sailor]

Interpol crushes shit. Outstanding band.

me and some friends listened to Throwing Copper the other night and i was blown away by how much I enjoyed it. It had been YEARS since i actually listened to the album

[Ello Sailor]

Live kicks ass. I love that bald, Polish bastard. Whatever the fuck his name is.

[Bammer]

Live has lots of good songs

Ironically their live performance SUCKS.

Your boy Ed Kowalczyk is the cheesiest motherfucker I have ever seen on stage.

[VinylGuy]

which name is worse, Live or Bush?

[Ello Sailor]

Both are trash. Bush is slightly worse.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

bush is definitely worse...i don't like bush

[Strat]

Literally one of the best shows ive ever seen was a LIVE show in 2000 at my college campus. Not because I love LIVE by any means but it was the perfect storm of my freshman year of college drinking my face off from 7 am till the show. I remember stashing miller high life's in the dresser in our dorm room. I also played with a band....if i could call it that....in the outdoor rotunda that day as part of the end of the year festivities. Lol, i hadn't thought about that till just now.

Anyway, saw them in a college gymnasium and it was awesome. I just remember it being awesome.

I dont think i listened to them since.

Lakini's juice is a great riff.

Violent Femmes > Kanye West

Hundo-p, my man.

Why I Hate This Album did a deep dive on this song recently. Did you know it's about fucking doplhins?
