Here's why I hate indie/emo-shitrock, right here:
You know when a metal band does a ballad, and it sounds fucking stupid and insincere and shit?
That's what an indie rock band sounds like. Except, all the time. Their entire career can be compared to Kiss doing a mellow love song.
It's especially funny because the douches that listen to this shit usually jump on other artists (usually the electronic variety), and bitch about how they're "unemotional", or some other stupid shit they know nothing about.
Who hasn't felt like Disc One track Ten once in their lives? I know I have!
Coldplay can go suck my dick, seriously.
I'm not a pretentious avant-garde fag, though, don't get me wrong, I hate Sonic Youth's Goodbye 20th Century as much as you do, but I mean, it's not like the rest of their career is particularly interesting either. Except for Confusion Is Sex through to Daydream Nation, of course. Confusion Is Sex is so fucking underrated, it makes me want to cry.
LIKE A FAGGOT EMOKID!!
What I'm trying to say here is: Feedback is good. Acoustic guitars are queer.
Yeah!
Dildo AssBaggins, you say? -

It's the same old shit. Over, and over, and over.Sonic Nurse?
Really.
They need to do something new.
It's old.
I mean. There's only so many times you can do the exact same trick Television did back in the fucking 70s without seeming completely redundant.
There's better, more complex, more effective, more interesting examples of guitar interplay out there. And that guitar interplay shit is the only fucking thing Sonic Youth have going for them, now.
It's boring. They don't sound like they're having fun. They just sound like they're doing it because it's what they do. Where's the fucking enthusiasm, the passion and shit?
No, wait, wait, see, the indie scene for all of its "REAL EMOTION" pretensions, is characterised by a complete lack of passion and energy. Just one lathargic mid-90's Metallica ballad until you lose the will to live.
Prove me wrong, QOTSA, you fucking queer.
I'm sure Nurse sounds good if you haven't heard much else Sonic Youth have done. But, see, it's like everything else Sonic Youth have done.
Ooops.
"Hypnotic" is one word for any of the songs. Another would be "overlong". A better one would be, "yawn".
And if I wasn't afraid to be accused of being a counter-hipster, I'd tell you straight up that I think NYC Ghosts And Flowers (0 on Pitchfork! Way to go, Brent!) is far superior to that Nurse shit.
Seriously, QOTSA, I'm writing all this shit to get a rise out of you. Fucking flame me already. I already have a fucking wealth of material lined up! Godamn! I mean, that whole bit where I was talking about indiefags calling electronic music "unemotional"? That was based off you.
Christ.
I'll tell you this, though. Good News is one hell of a fucking album. That, right there, is what an indie band sounds like when they actually care about the shit they're making, instead of trying to look cool.
