I still listen to the stuff I liked 20 years ago. Stop pretending that you've had this great musical growth and how everyone else is just below you and doesn't have good taste.
I am willing to bet that I've heard much more music and much more diversity in music than you have. Elitist attitude is what ruins art for nobody else but you. You are limiting your appreciation because of some silly things not pertaining to to the art itself. Mr Bungle and RHCP both have merit, they both appeal to audiences, they both do what they do best. You should be thankful that we do have this diversity and you can sit back and enjoy your 'cool distinctive' sound of Bungle and other can go to a huge arena and get their heads blown off by RHCP.
The only reason you are hating is because of what one guy said about some band. That shows how much you really care about art of it all. Remove the people from the picture, art is art only when you forget about the baggage that comes with it, otherwise it's just another human drama.
Was that a reply to me? I'm not knockin' ppl that listen to RHCP. TO each their own man.
I'm just sayin'... my RHCP collection stopped after Californication. Wasn't rockin' enough for me.
I still listen to new stuff by bands that ppl keep saying sold out and sound like shit now that they've passed their hayday.. I don't care:
Rancid, Green Day, Social Distortion.

This whole thread reeks of elitism. Pop art vs fine art... what a load of horseshit. There are a thousand different qualities people enjoy about their music, and nobody's preferences are objectively more 'fine' than others.

yeah duh, thats what i said man. i dunno what youre questioning

yeah, there is no higher or better opinion. opinions are perspectives of which none are objective. everything is subjective. and we favor what we like ... we're all different... we have different taste... no one opinion is any better than another's... and this statement is an opinion which is no better than any other; it is just another opinion.

when did I say anything of the sort? I dont consider my musical taste to be the pinnacle of musical taste.... but I will say that it is better than most of you guys. Yeah, i am a music snob. so what? And I never said that everything you used to listen to will fall by the wayside. The first band I liked was the Beach boys when I was 8. But I only liked their cheesy pop stuff. As I became ridiculed by my friends for liking the beach boys, I dropped them, only to rediscover them years later through wild honey/smiley smile and found a much deeper appreciation for them.

I dont care if you are 90 years old, that statement isnt true. I run live sound 13 out of every 14 days, and each day I run on average 3 bands, and sometimes as much as 6 or 7 in a night. not to mention that I am a fairly avid festival and concert goer. and why does this thread have to become about me? I set out some very salient points about art appreciation, yet all I get is ad hominems and people saying "nuh-uh, its subjective".
Quote:

Like I said before, It is progression. Give a dog nothing but shit food all its life, and it knows no better... it never refines its literal taste. Give that dog some steak and its eyes are opened wide, and it reveals its shitty mush for what it really is. shitty.
Quote:

not really. I hated RHCP before I read about the bungle RHCP feud, but reading about it merely gave me enough motivation to make this thread. Can you really say there is no possible way of saying that Chick Corea is better than Nickelback? that jaco pastorius is better than Linkin Park? that King Crimson is better than Blink 182? that Frank Zappa is better than lil mama? that Quincy Jones is better than Puddle of Mudd?
would you say that a 60 year old man is a snob when he tells you exactly how you are going to change and feel about certain subjects later on in life, like children, marriage etc? it is a progression, and it takes experience to get to that point. People always ask me how I find such crazy good music, and I just tell them "you when someone tells you to check this or that band out? well, I actually do it". So, you call it pretentious, I call it passing on knowledge.

The RHCP are ok.. other than californication nothing is really that special. But John Frusciante will probably always be one of my favorite guitarists
