Elphenor doesn't actually think genres are bullshit though cause we had this argument a few weeks ago.

I think they serve their purpose mostly directing you to other artists you may like

But even as a historical thing genres are misleading

look at Talking Heads and Television being labeled post punk bands when they actually predate Sex Pistols for instance

Agreed threads taken a turn for th fuckn dumb

btw I like QOTSA and trail of dead

Their genres are as follows

QOTSA: laser-guided robotic rock for lesser apes. but sometimes the robots are tipsy, so it's almost like it's its own thing

trail of dead: (at their best) alternatively volcanic vs droney crunch pop w/ an occasional twist of Xibalban dread (at their worst) a halfassed fugazi cover band

See and that's why you need labels like grunge or shoegaze cuz idk what the fuck you're talking about. I agree with elph, genres are good to help you find new music. That's about all. But that's a necessary thing. Or else you can't describe and compare any artists unless you invent some crazy and meaningless way to explain them.

Actually, I do like their biggest hit but I never got around to listening to any full album. I do realize that genre is bloated, but I'm happy Interpol, The Strokes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and Arcade Fire came out of it.
