lol well on triple j i only listen to the heavy metal show on tuesday nights, and the punk show on wednesday nights
well that's the problem with indie kds, we are dispersed quite widely. i think i know of 3 guys in my year that listen to triple j, but the thing is triple j over the years in my opinion has lost its independent radio roots and has become somewhat trendy to all the scenesters out there. triple j is still good, but this is just my observation. anyway i tend to listen to fbi more nowadays since there's more consistency in their playlists for hidden gems
lol fair enough
hahahahahahahahahaha
that's stupid, it's not like MGMT changed their sound or anything (no comment please Born Dancer i know how hypocritical this sounds), i hate it when people just don't like a band anymore because they've found more success. the only time i see when it is appropriate to gett pissed is when they completely chnage their sound for a wider audience.
+1
the only thing i will point out is that i don't think any of the credible bands on the twilight soundtrack did change their sound, and therefore being placed on a cd with that kind of mainstream success by your above logic shouldn't lead you to think that they are damaged in any way.
I still think Muse's The Resistance is an exception to this.
this. my problem is that mainstream success often comes at the cost of fans only having listened to one song and pouring their whole energy into that one, often not the best single.
except that i don't think the twilight soundtrack had anything to do with that. the whole cd is rubbish and was always going to be rubbish with or without the film
perhaps...
how come? that doesn't sound particularly satisfying
i don't know, it's just that my tastes are so wide. i started playing classical/jazz so i know alot about that, then i just moved onto blues, psych, 70s 80s punk, alternative, and avant garde. i just like too many things. i'll remember what songs sound like but probably not the lyrics or the title, sound is pretty much what engages me. when you're taste is as broad as mine, i guess for me, depth is something i don't really build on except of course for classical and jazz seeing how that's where my roots in music are
you know For Emma was in 2008?
which it is for all the tracks in the countdown. that's why there is often 2 year splits between singles and albums
