I do respect that though. Shrug.

But I do see and pretty much agree with your two sides thing.

I just like to think that all of our musical tastes are respected. Like, we all share a common interest in SY - presumably that's what brought us here. So in a sense our tastes all overlap and then diverge. But I respect what those divergences are. That's kind of all I'm ever trying to stress.

To use the example of me and Soup - we both love Wilco. A lot. But I love Ryan Adams and he hates him. And he probably loves stuff I hate. But whatever. That's what makes this board interesting - hopefully anyway. That we can all kind of weave in and out with our preferences and maybe even share some stuff.

Like evollove said - what the fuck. It's mostly just music. It's all just fun talk.

Anyone who judges you for what you listen to is shit. Arguments about relative quality of different musicians are fine, but judging a person because of what makes their ears feel good is asinine and for 100% cunts.

Also, I love you no matter what you like, because we have fun shooting the shit about it even when we disagree.

No

I swear, even after all these years, against my better judgement, I still really like Spice Girls "Wannabe." Gonna respect that? Hell, I don't even respect that.

Don’t laugh, hombre.

In many ways, noisereductions is the least full of shit person here. I’ve never seen him attack anyone, and I’ve never seen him be intentionally cruel (which many people don’t realize is a very sad thing to be), and I’ve seen him weather insults without climbing into the muck to circle-jerk his accusers.

He talks about music and other stuff, and he respects other perspectives.

Also, if you’re serious about liking “Wannabe,” I respect that as well. Doesn’t make my ears feel good, but does it have merit as a pop song? Certainly.

I'm more of a 2 Become 1 kind of guy. I'm a romantic deep down.

2 Become 1 is the better song... But I feel like you weren't being serious.

God you're a fucking idiot. You're so stupid, how do you breath? You're the most awful person I've come across online. Your ancestors should have been aborted to spare the world your insipid drivel.

jk

Actually, I don't know that song.

I think you’ve lost track of who you’re trying to make fun of.

Experimantal Jet Set, Trash & No Star.

This one is moving up in my favourite SY album rankings.

St Vincent, Masseducation

It’s actually “Masseduction” but I’ve called it the same thing countless times.

Miles On the Corner box set, as fresh today as it was in '72

Well fucking hell. The 1st new album I've bought in ages and I get the name wrong. Story of my life.

Thanks for this, I hadn't heard it before.

You're quite welcome. That post was brought to you by Bad Hombres, a division of Shithole, Inc.

I've decided that I will listen to nothing but The Ex for the next couple of days!

3io - Back To New Roots

Interesting covers album w/ jazz interpretations of 90's/00's dance tracks. Opens with a version of "Eple" (Royksopp) that I really like. Also has DJ Shadow, Fatboy Slim, Chemical Brothers, Underworld, etc.

I bought Jah Wobble and the Nippon Dub Ensemble on vinyl. Quite odd dub
