What albums do popular opinions w/in the e-music community seem to hold in high regard that you dislike intensely?

Mine: Drukqs. Hate it. Predictable, boring, post-jungle retread.

Also: Be gentle with each other. Some good humored fire may be fun.

Bjork. I find her melodies lacking most of the time, and her vocal emoting way over the top and indulgent. It bugs me. That said, I just saw a dvd of her performing live and enjoyed it. I think I finally saw what everyone's going on about her. She is a very skillful singer and puts herself whole-heartedly into her music in a really pure way. But I still don't really enjoy her music.

ugh, suddenly I feel so guilty. In my opinion it's wrong to put any music down, because as you get older and your taste changes suddenly something you totally detested is beautiful.

i always hated most of all it

no guilt Fredo, it's healthy to indulge our peeves from time to time, don't you think?

Thine eyes

totally overrated

lol

didn't think anyone thought that they were ever anything but shit

No, they were totally popular

They were on behind the music the other day
bola. i heartily love everything skam puts out and he is/was supposed to be an originator and pioneer but i just don't get it. all these other things are on the tip of my tongue. GOOD BLOG!!!!

I don't like bola much either! Always found his stuff a bit... I dunno, shmaltzy, I guess.

well, IDM. most IDM sounds like a long corny guitar solo to me. obnoxious wankery. mirror masturbation. apply to all the usual suspects.

NINE INCH NAILS. need i say more?

IDM = mirror masturbation. Awesome!

to follow fredo, pink floyd was one that took me many tries to 'get'. I think i had to wait until adolescent, heroic tendencies subsided in order to finally embrace it.

i think one of the appeals of electronic music in general is that it privlieges 'the experiment', which in turn allows a lot of noise and dross to flow casually under the eye of musical scrutiny.

tbh lately i have been thinking all music is totally overrated and everybody is just wasting their time
