Writing when pissed is a bad idea. I'll start with that caveat.
The problem is that the majority of rock/ pop music is dumb, and while the aesthetic sensibility may mature beyond this, the worrying [perhaps in the archaic sense of 'worrying'] majority of people don't sophisticate their tastes to match their time of life. It concerns me that most people here seem stuck in the musical infantilism of rock music. I don't have a problem with that in itself, and some of you may have noticed a certain puerilism to my [projected] tastes, but the fact that four million [pop-cultural] years on a [musically] simple record is still somehow better than a very similar but newer one. For instance - Loveless is simply an ok record. Nothing more, nothing less. It's the gravitas with which an ok record is imbued that concerns me. Obviously, if you're actually capable of appreciating something at the teenage ground-zero of emotional intensity that is teenhood, then more power to you. But I rarely believe that to be the case.
Again - writing hammered = bad idea.
