Also, as an aside: are there any other pedants on here bothered by the fact that "don't like" is synonymous with "dislike"? That bothers me. Because I don't like Lionel Richie, but I don't dislike Lionel Richie. I just don't give a shit. But if I say I don't like Lionel Richie, our language pretty much takes that to mean that I dislike him. But that's inaccurate. And that bothers me, because there are a lot of bands I don't like, but only a few that I dislike.

Modest Mouse - meh The National - boring Bon Iver - boring when I'm sober Rush - meh Spoon - meh Smiths/Pixies - no shits given Notorious B.I.G. - way overrated Decemberists/Strokes - Are they bands everyone loves? I don't know, and I don't care. Radiohead - I'm reserving judgment until I see them live, otherwise meh

The Smiths, Bjork, and Radiohead. They all fall in my "meh" category.
You're still young, you should be excited about how much your appreciation of certain music will grow over the next ten years.
Not even trying to be a dick, when I was 22 I hated Radiohead (I thought Kid A was an attempt to make the fans praising it look like dumbasses and I wasn't going to fall for that shit) and had never even listened to The Smiths.
Having said that The Smiths are a pretty polarizing band, which is odd for a band that cranked out more pop masterpieces than any other band in its decade. I'm thinking people either love Morrissey's lyrics and vocals or hate them, and that's the deciding factor.
No offense taken, your definitely right. I've noticed how much my taste in music has changed in just the past 3 or 4 years. When I was 16-18, I thought it didn't get any better than RHCP. Even though I think they get shiz on a little too much around here....I hardly ever listen to them now and laugh at them being the reason I went to my first Roo.
Radiohead has grew on me since I saw them at Roo in 2012, but I wouldn't be ready to go all-in for Bonnaroo 2016 if it got leaked that they be headlining. I've tried listening to Morrissey and Bjork a few times, just can't get into it.

I thought you liked some of us and wanted to stay friends? I agree with three and that is all (Bon Iver, Decemberist and Rush), as for the rest; you are crazy.
I am going with crazykittensmile, or maybe a step further...Fuck this thread. Y'all all haters.
Decemberists/Strokes - Are they bands everyone loves? I don't know, and I don't care.
I was surprised at how little excitement there was for The Strokes playing Shaky Knees. We had a big group from inforoo that attended, and I'm pretty sure me and Son of a Beek were the only two that got somewhat close to the stage and didn't leave early.

Modest Mouse - Agreed. The National - I think there is some strong songwriting on "Boxer" but I never really clicked with anything else. Bon Iver - I think its pretty music. I like 'em alright. Rush - Takes a certain kind of fan to love Rush, which I do. One of the most surprisingly popular bands of all time, just because the music is so weird. Spoon - Agreed, though I think there is strong songwriting all the way through Gimme Fiction. Smiths - already commented earlier, I love The Smiths but understand their polarizing nature Pixies - Agreed, I like a few tracks but don't love them like many others do. Notorious B.I.G. - His time in music was short but "Ready To Die" is a masterpiece. I firmly believe he elevated hip-hop as an art form more than any artist in the genre before him. Decemberists - Meh for me too Strokes - I think they are less beloved than they used to be, since they really only put out one (or two) great records. Radiohead - I've been through the struggle, I love them now.

I took some deep breaths and will try to be constructive. I would put The Decemberists in the "reserve judgement until you see them live" category. I saw them in April because they were headlining a festival in Knoxville, and I was really really surprised by how fun their show was.

This is what I expected from someone who places Will Smith on their Bonnaroo wishlist.

I pity you more than anything. Monie at least shows occasional glimmers of hope. You appear to be doomed to a lifetime of shitty taste in music. I should send you an Imagine Dragons shirt for Christmas.

Oh come on Fuzz, I like a lot of acts much worse than Will Smith. You can do better. Will Smith would be fun as hell.

I think that would be more appropriate for Siggy.
Fair point. It would be difficult to get you one you don't already have.

Imagine Dragons though? That's just low.

The Biggie hate on here the over the last 12 hours has the hate flowing through me as well:
Arcade Fire - Ive tried so hard to like them Foo Fighters - Don't actively dislike them but I'm not sipping that Grohl kool aid Muse Neutral Milk Hotel - has never clicked for me Avett Brothers - boring Tupac - actually overrated Iceage Warpaint

That's enough... for now (:<
Agree with you on all of these except for NMH and the Avetts. I don't know what this says about you, but it doesn't bode well.
Tupac is pretty overrated as well (and is definitely technically subpar in comparison to Biggie), but I always liked his music more. I've enjoyed Biggie's albums and they certainly have their place in hip-hop history but I don't think either of them are GOAT.

Update: My Morning Jacket has grown on me quite a bit. Still not a fanboy, but I appreciate and enjoy a lot of their music now. Still have a few albums to listen to tho

This is exactly how I feel about them. I definitely need to give It Still Moves a few more listens.

This is how I was with them too. Took a decent amount of repeated exposure to really get into them, but I think it was worth it. Even after seeing them live I still don't think they deserve the amount of love they get on here, but I'm glad I took the time to listen to them.

Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.
