I've been reading this article (thanks for the link, Bob heart ) for the past while written by a guy who puts everything I feel and think about music in to words perfectly. And adds to it. I'm familliar with the bands he writes about, but the ways he compares them puts everything into such a clear light makes it feel like I've never looked at them at ALL before. It then leads me to wonder why can't more fans be like this...and why can't more musicians be like this? This then makes me incredibly pessimistic about the shape of music right now...not just from Asia or America or even Europe, but everywhere.
So I want to know what is the appeal to these bands that feel nothing for the act of making music and feel nothing for the music they themselves make. I look up to artists that say things like "I'm going to change the world with rock and roll music," and "Rock is a monster," so when I hear bands saying things like "Formed with the sole purpose to spread the feeling of hurt and sorrow caused by weakness, shallowness and egoism of humanity" just feels hollow and superficial to me. Like they're not in it for the music. They're in it for the kitsch. They want to be something new and different, but they don't feel they need to put it in their music to accomplish this.

From Hi-STANDARD's Last of Sunny Day 自分が気に入るBANDとはど ういう物かと考えてみた。それは『カッコイイ』と思うBANDだ。カッコイイ と言うのは、LOOKSを言っている訳じゃない。まず音だ。その次はLIVE だ。LOOKSは良い方がいいが、これはどうでもいい。LOOKSよりも、そ のBANDから出る雰囲気の方が大切だと思う。 There are certain kinds of things I consider before I can be pleased with a band. That is to think a band is "cool." To say something is cool has nothing to do with the looks. It's about the sound. Next is live. Looks are nice, but anything is fine. More than looks, coming from a band, atmosphere is important, I think.
Stolen from IKN.'s findage. Just wanted to NEVAR FORGET that translation.
EDIT: Something else to remember.
i know nothing. Back in the days when God ruled over earth with his legions of Dinonauts, music wasn't freely distrubuted through the magical Intarweb. Satan Records held a demon's share of the music market and stole the joy of listening to music by demanding payment. In the beginning, one's first born child as sacrifice was enough to appease his appetite but as the industry swelled, he needed something more useful: money. Before the magical Intarweb, we lived in constant oppression, didn't we?

I enjoy the fact that my 27,000th post is about death by wang. It's appropriate.
