You know who I hate...

...people that treat their musical opinions like they're facts, and that they're right and everyone else is wrong due to their "superior intellect".

Example: http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu...b-6fafde90b163

I mean, I'm not a huge Tool fan, but I find everything he says to be absolutely ridiculous. Anyone else here strongly dislike elitists? The saddest thing of it all is that a lot of people agree with them.

Well, he's right in saying that Tool don't really have a whole lot of chord-movement and harmony, but that's just their style; it's stupid to say that they suck because of it. Look at at Meshuggah--no harmony there, but they still kick ass

Not all music requires massive expansive chords and whatnot.

So yeah, this dude is a douche. Although, to be fair, he is rather right that Tool do sound a bit repetitive after a while (in fact, that's why my bassist doesn't like to listen to them), so he is right in their regard, but his elitist "I know music theory, and you don't!' attitude is pure bullshit.

Seems to me like he's jealous that they're like 1000 times bigger than him

I've learned to not worry about what others think about music I like. Nor should anyone give a shit if I don't like something you do like.

So many people though are snotty assholes about their musical tastes. It gets old immediately. Just because you like [insert band name here] doesn't mean anything. I happen to love Tool but if someone disagrees I don't give a rat's ass.

Spoongirl · 03-13-2007, 07:36 PM

What an idiot. I hate the way he talks too, wanting to sound like ""superior""

there are Tool songs that aren't pure 4/4 and hey, what the hell, besides this I listen to Tool (as many other people) because of their energy and because I just feel good listening to them. Why he just doesn't dedicate to write his music and to do his shit? Is he jealous of Tool or something

?

It's funny how its bugged him to the point of making a video about it...if you don't like the music then just don't listen to it.
