Guest tht tne Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I nominate the phrase "face-melting," especially in regard to electronic jam bands see also, "epic" and "heady" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AcrossCanyons Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Epic. Fuck I hate kids calling every pop punk single "epicz0r!!!!!!!!" Swag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QBLA Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 swag and esque don't bother me... i can't think of anything that does... i never thought of epic being bad because i've only probably heard it being used for something that deserves it.

luke viia Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I nominate the phrase "face-melting," especially in regard to electronic jam bands see also, "epic" and "heady" everytime I hear "that music melted my face" i have this terrible urge to remind them that it was the LSD, the MDMA, or the K melting their face, not the light jazz stylings of STS9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Calx Sherbet Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Epic it's overuse always makes me second guess using it. it's really tiring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest disparaissant Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 mishka just described a whole slew of bands from different genres as "grave wave." somehow oOoOO and gatekeeper and zola jesus and pop. 1280 and xiu xiu are all part of the same genre movement now, and that movement is called grave wave. what the fuck mishka. i mean you generally suck but this is a whole new level of lazy. epic is pretty bad.

Guest Beefuncle Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 "electronica" - its used to label any and all music that may include some sort of synth, so over used its just lazy. also pitchfork reviews are a good source for stupid words. Every sentence contains at least 4 words that don't belong outside the thesaurus, their bigotry is hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patternoverlap Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 "experimental" as most tracks that are labeled as such do not sound like it. if you really think about the word, it doesn't suit any track. for whom was it an experiment? the audience? the artist? The only descriptors that make me cringe are some of the subgenre names and their usage (example sentence: "This album bridges the gap between illbient and chill wave." ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vamos scorcho Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 honestly i hate everything so haha, ya know what i mean? if something is described as "sunny, lo-fi pop" then i pretty much automatically not only avoid it but also hate it and people who like it though i kind of like the band Girls.

The only descriptors that make me cringe are some of the subgenre names and their usage (example sentence: "This album bridges the gap between illbient and chill wave." ) agree but for slightly different reasons, the term 'experimental' as it's mostly used rarely ever refers to actual experimentation, it refers to established sub genres within the 'experimental' musical genre like noise, ambient, improvised music, or conceptual modern classical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triachus Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I hated the use of the word "emo" because at a certain point, it wasn't used to refer to emocore anymore, but anything that had a bit of emotion in it "classical music is so emo" fuuuuck but i think that trend is passed now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oscillik Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 heady? never even heard that. genres that are a fusion of the names of two subgenres just shouldn't exist usually attributed to a lot of bands that cropped up around the 'Madchester' era Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
