true.
but lemme still say: sonic youth could never have made Blissard.
I don’t think you were bashed by anyone. I didn’t bash you.
[preachyteachy mode ON]I see an open mind not as something one can claim from the other. It’s something one delivers in the first place. It’s how one deals with all the contradictionary point of views of all the others. It’s easy to tolerate same-thinking peers, there’s nothing open minded about that. [preachyteachy mode OFF]
In this special case: Allow the artist to make his art available as he sees fit and accept it without feeling screwed just because one prefers to get it on a different medium. The only one that got bashed in that topic was the band itself. By an open-minded fanbase of psychonauts.
Quote:Hell, I thought, I’ve always seen psychonauts as open people. And that thread was a bummer.???
“but thats OK. it doesn’t matter anyway. it’s still those with the least to say that will be heard…”
’nuff said.
btw my wish for next month’s song: “no evil”.
I find it quite interesting that we have a pro and contra vinyl discussion. I rather see this thing as a pro and contra album subject. Yes one can listen to a whole downloaded album and pick his favourite tracks on the LP player. But doesn’t the latter format imply listening to the whole album? Maybe even take a break after the last song faded?
Quote:Have you thought that maybe they actually don’t want you to listen to it while driving in traffic and not paying attention to the music?Prince and Kyuss come to mind who released albums on CD (Lovesexy & Sky Valley) with almost to none song indexes. And Kyuss even instructed the listener with a “listen without distraction” note on the sleeve. So they screwed the customer’s preferences?
you’re a very silly young lad.
geeez, this hasn’t anything to do with old and new and hippie and whatnot. it’s probably a decision of sound. recording by steve albini and putting it out on vinyl simply go hand in hand.
but yes maybe it’s a basic cherish-the-vinyl statement from MP’s side as well. in these dark times of customer lead download demands. the latter is the doom that must be fought. hail to the cildren of the future who shall worship the arts again as intended by the artists.
As I asked, who’s “we”?
The urge for harmony and getting back with nature is a nice thing to point out, but outside of our cushioned european welfare states with 24h medical care and teenage angst and job angst and disillusions and burnouts and the fear of not-being-hugged-every-other-hour, the world has more urgent problems.
