I wouldn't dream of trying. However, I'm curious as to what your exposure to Unwound has been. You like a lot of bands that are sonically indebted to a particular kind of post-hardcore championed by Unwound (who were more experimental punk than rock) and a shitload of their peers. None of these peers were quite as good as Unwound, but all of them were better than... ahh... bands that have toured with Sevendust or Three Days Grace. Not trying to bust ball. I don't care what you like, but I wonder if you've ever tried out any of the following, and if so, what you thought: A Minor Forest Polvo Chavez Shipping News June of 44 Scratch Acid Bitch Magnet Crain Lungfish Eh? |

I dont not like unwound, heard some polvo, heard of lungfish. I like shoegaze more than hardcore. Really chevelle is a guilty pleasure, i either go shoegaze or punk but rarely go for the metal/hardcore middle ground. I think the only hardvore band i ever liked was KMFDM

Not to be a fucking asshole, but KMFDM ain't no hardcore nothin'. They're fairly lightweight industrial with dance and pop sensibilities. Unwound isn't metal. They were on Kill Rock Stars. Don't get me wrong, they can be heavy as sin, but they're actually a lot more like Sonic Youth than they are/were like anyone else. And when I say hardcore in reference to them, I'm speaking of the "punk" kind of hardcore; not its distant cousins in the metal or industrial scenes. I just mean they grew out of the 1980's, and the drone and noise adopted by that decade's punk visionaries. I am really kinda talking about stuff like Sonic Youth, Mission of Burma, Scratch Acid, Fugazi, Big Black, and the bands (like Unwound, Slint, etc) who latched on to this more expansive version of punk that embraced artsy musical elements, longer song lengths and changing time signatures. I don't know... you like Deftones and Tool. I tend to think of Tool especially as an accessible, LA, rock starry version of Unwound, Slint, Rodan, etc. Dude, you really don't like Unwound? Leaves Turn Inside You is like... Jesus, it's like the Daydream Nation of the 00's, AND the Kid A of the ... y'know... the non arena rock bands. With all your love for Sleater-Kinney.. I thought you'd be a K-R-S fanboy. Oh well. I'm just trying to get you addicted to new sonic narcotics. If you respect my opinion on music at all, look further into Unwound. I would throw my support behind them every bit as much as I would for SY, Aphex Twin, Velvet Underground, Kanye West. Take that and do with it what you will. |

I wasn't making a judgement......your statement that I linked is actually one of the best honest comments I've ever read on here. It's why I searched out a track because your comment along with the cover art prompted me to. I hear why you would need to be in the right frame of mind, wasn't what I was expecting, but I'm glad I heard it! |

Well... like I said: all that stuff up there! ![]() Sorry I guess I misread that, and thought you said you did not like Unwound. Which would be fine, of course, but also completely baffling. Either way, "I don't not like [X]" is a pretty noncommittal statement. It pretty much doesn't mean anything. You don't "not like" them... so, that's cool, always good to preamble an opinion with some bipartisan padding. But I didn't ask how you didn't feel about them. I am much more interested in how you do feel about them, what you've heard and when you heard it, and how familiar you are with their music. I don't "not like" astronaut zero-gravity acclimation training. I mean, I have never been through it, and know so little about it that I don't even know if I called it the right thing, but I can't in good conscience go around saying I think it's a load of bullshit can I? So yeah... I don't not like it. ![]() I'm not trying to bust your balls. I just want to talk music. |

Severin, you should start a blog. Or become a critic. This might seem like an insult, and maybe it is, but really, you have the knack for this stuff.
Like how you said KNXWLEDGE - Hud Dreems was "must hear." That's a perfect example. It is, of course, no such thing. The truth is you found this record to be good and you think other people who enjoy this sort of thing will enjoy the record as well. That's all. Literally billions of people will lead full productive lives without hearing a second of this. People get paid to make absurd pronouncements like this, so why not join them? |

I missed what you said at the top when I skimmed through this the first time because I was too busy looking at the cover of White House and saying "right on, right on" while slowly nodding in approval. No idea what to say about your frustration, other than that I can probably sympathize. I frustrate and confound myself constantly. |
