Italian popular music is really no different than pop music from anywhere else in the world. Pre-70s styles (Jazz for example) are still played by a lot of people and have only fallen out of the mainstream of popular music.

That's some nice info. I already knew all of it, though.

ITT:

I DON'T GOT NO TYPE

BAD BITCHES IS THE ONLY THING THAT I LIKE

They're coming to Umass in like a week.

I should go pee on them

First you said ANYTHING pre 70's is good and I told you that was wrong, then you said you didn't say that even though I quoted you verbatim.

That's because you were being pedantic. It's like when people use the word literally -- often they don't mean literally.

Now you're saying the west grew out of a style of music but Italy didn't, and I told you that wasn't true anymore than it is for Italy, and now you're saying that's not what you were trying to say.

I'm saying they didn't grow out of it as much as we did. I would go to Portugal, Italy, or France -- they all have different shit playing on the radio from us. Italy in particular was behind by several decades (and still is, in some instances). Obviously all these countries have "pop", like us. But these classic styles are still very present. Far more than the western world.

I want to know what music Jive finds okay or even likes. I bet that guy is much more open minded when it comes music than you bow wearing, checkered-shirt, brace wearing pimple cowered introverted sociopath phaggots.

He listens to the same shit that people like Starch listen to, IIRC.

I dunno, I used to really like Drake's stuff. His album, Take Care, was really good IMO.

Just... I dunno, his stuff ain't that good anymore.

Anything pre-1970 is pretty amazing.

This guys knows whats up. I mean I'd say mid-50s to the late 80s but I can recognize taste when I see it.

Ayyy I'm on board with this ^

So what makes the cacophony of shitty sounds that is grindcore good?

the RIFFS

YouTube

i can't make any out

^
Shitty melodies played fast and loud are still shitty melodies
Also how and when did screaming win out over actual lyrics?

I wouldn't call them melodies. Riffs are more rhythmic than they are melodic most of the time.

Nobody ever said it did. Why can't I enjoy both? But there are lyrics in there just FYI

Just bustin' your balls dude

le wrong generation

Nah, more like I grew up with this kind of music and my ears have only marginally adjusted to the times. There's too big a difference, instrumentally and lyrically, between classic rock and todays music for me to really get into it.

People with shit taste in music:
Jim
Loaf
Your mom
