Oooh, good call; I'm fed up of the revisionist history of them. At the time - probably very good. Now, overhyped nonsense.Posted 7 months ago # -
Coldplay

Oasis - to be fair, one good album, then each one was slightly worse. Sorta like a Nightmare or Elm Street, Halloween, or Friday the 13th of the music world.

Never find 'em when you need them. Never up to the job as they always break. No longevity as they become brittle and break after time. Buy a box, lose a box, buy another box, lose another box.
COMPLETE WASTE OF F***ING SPACE!

No, the 'most hyped up way beyond their true musical worth and genuine talent' thread.
Beatles is a pretty good shout. People forget they were a semi-'manufactured' boy baynd doing commercial pop music to begin with. Then were 'influenced by (copied, basically) other baynds and musicians of the time. If you actually analyse their work critically, they weren't as good as many artists throughout the period they were active for. Loads more talented, inventive and original stuff out there, the Beatles enjoyed success cos they were relatively 'safe' and undemanding. Not unlike many of today's pop stars really.
Yeah, they had some good stuff, granted, couple of good albums, but tbh there's loads of better stuff out there really. They were never really inventive or original; they helped popularise a lot of other music, but weren't 'pioneers' in any real sense. And some of John Lennon's stuff is absolutely dire; wishy washy hypocritical sentimental tosh. Goddam Hippy.. George Harrison did some interesting stuff with Indian music for a bit, worked with the likes of Ravi Shankhar, but again, a bit insipid really. And as for McCartney; ye Gods where to begin?
Yeah, Beatles for me too I think.
Oh, and for individual artist; Madonna. Yeah she's bin a round a very very long time, but what has she ever done where you can stand back and truly say 'that's great'?

But it's POPular music, it's not supposed to be great, just appealing to the money giving drones who are looking for someone to give them an identity.

Yeah we know that, Don, it's all 'pop' music of some sort really, in't it? No matter how seriously it takes itself.
I used Madonna cos she's always the 'most whatever' artist blah blah blah without ever having really produced anything genuinely outstanding.

The Elfinscale on the Elfinometer; that tried and trusted barometer of what is good and what isn't.
There is no better evaluative mechanism.

Not really, no. There's Pop music where it's done simply for the money and I believe there are genuine artists out there who do it for the love of music and not popular acclaim.
Not all music is pop music, but all pop music is overrated if it's considered to be anything other than popular.
And I still hate elastic.
