Playing BS acoustic guitar music, fokol talent, F-ing Redemption song rip-offs, etc.

And the crowds think they're the best thing since sliced bread.
Fuck-off, I'll eat the bread unsliced thanks.
Do you mean actual folk or wank indie with acoustic guitars and hipster beards calling itself folk (mumford and sons, I'm looking in your direction)? Fuck I hate all that shite, bands that couldnt find a decent drummer so they just stamp on the floor to keep rhythm instead, 'oh we have an accordian player', fuck off!

Well I mean the acoustic guitar playing ppl that sit around campfires singing Rodriguez or bad covers of Bob Marley.
You get your percentage of ppl that are actually really talented guitarists & musicians but they are totally overshadowed by the wankness of it all.

It's like a culture of hippies that look down on Psytrance hippies.
Sit on the grass in a park on a Sunday afternoon listening to 4 guitars strumming, some lady wailes in the background whilst the spectators eat cumin cheese and drink red wine.

They're like the worst poets in the world forcing their shit poetry on the masses whilst acting self-righteous about how better they are than everyone.
Commenting on how at peace they are with everything but bitching about too much gluten in their bread.

First World Problem hippies on acoustic guitars.

Nev - I can appreciate an artist at work playing a lute or a mandolin.
But if for one second you want to come here with your pretentious BS about Tom Waits and how Jack Karoake was the voice of our youth.
I'll fucking cut you.

tbh honest it's mostly people that take themselves and the music waaaaaaaaaaay too seriously (regardless of the type of music) that irk me. like the "edge for life" (read: til college/21) kids in hardcore; or the ones that go "this is not REAL *insert genre here*" with every given opportunity like there's some sort of i like thing trophy just waiting for them. but the absolute worst are the ones that give others shit for not being into the real stuff, and when they do start jocking the real shit they're all "ugh what a poser"

i talk a lot of shit on hardcore and punk kids because i hung around these people more i guess. never got caught up in scene bullshit though, always seemed kinda dumb to me. it's funny seeing a lot of those people who were all like "electronic music is not REAL music" now making idm/ambient/future garage (which, obviously, is REAL electronic music) :lol:

I honestly think it has to be EDM producers.
We produce 2hr long drones and get pissed off when ppl say it's bad or not music.

Yeah, people who define themselves by the music they listen to. Or people who are fans of 'genres' rather than artists. It's some blind allegience shit.

In all fairness, donk might be shit but at least it's unpretentious as fuck. Unless there is some hipster donk scene I'm not aware of.

Clearly it's classical music fans. Everything else is just noise to them.

Or country and western. Because they actually listen to that shit.
