though since you mention it, this is pretty much what you're talking about

very authentic lol...it is indeed just broken glass noises and shit

this is not my favorite thing Nurse With Wound does, but, conceptually it is neat in that it's a form of music that requires no technical skill, but could not be replicated...

couldn't you just save us time and link us all to the "How to be an Elitist Asshole in 10 Days" book you bought off Amazon or whatever so we don't have to have this little charade every thread?

I just think your entire elitist attitude is incredibly narrow and short-sighted and willfully ignorant and reeks of hypocrisy

You're sitting here championing subversiveness and pushing boundaries while shitting on the likes of KJ and Ministry, where you had Al Jourgensen
combining elements of synthpop, funk, EBM to create a new sound, and somehow that's different, because what, you can dance to it? Because accessible, charged music is inherently dumb?

Just because something is challenging or not doesn't inherently make it good or bad. Eye of the beholder.

Throbbing Gristle and Cabaret Voltaire's music just doesn't speak to me. I grew up with Wax Trax acts, and in time I explored the artists who influenced them, and I just found some of them weren't for me. I prefer the likes of Kraftwerk if I've gotta go back to something older.

I also happen to enjoy KJ because of their aggressive, spiritual, tribal and politically-charged themes as much as I do their musical qualities. The band came along at a time in my life where I was questioning a lot of things about myself, caused me to take a good long look at my hobbies and tendencies, and are one of the major factors I decided to take up playing music, to try and get in touch with a part of myself I never really dared to look into, which isn't bad for "music for jocks in different uniforms" etc

Realizing you have a problem is one step, doing something about it is the next

And it hasn't escaped my notice that the anti-capitalist band sold a 34-CD singles box set that came with one of Jaz Coleman's cigar tubes but shit, I just found that funny

but Im never on here rep'ing indie folk that's like RBG territory

I don't dislike that kind of music expressly, it's whatever, I wouldn't complain if it were playing in a social setting

I would say I'm not so much about most of the "hipster" cannon of present day, but I do like jangle angle angle guitars

KJ 03 is just such a monster of an album, stars really aligned on that one eh?

dude knows what the fuck he wants to make, has Andy Gill behind the board & Dave Grohl behind the kit

it's as good as it sounds like it should be

KJ 2003 is the bar for "Albums artists with drive can still pull off 20+ years into a career" far as I'm concerned. Such an insane, intense album.
