Every groundbreaking artist is an annoying twat to some extent.

well said, you can't deny the impact she's had, and her "music" sans vocals is often incredible, especially when you consider when the albums were released

Personally, I'm not one of her fans at all but there is no way that I can deny that the crazy woman has talent.

Is it possible to be both? Because DAYUM that swan dress and Eskimo choir were groundbreaking AND fucking pretentious.

She is a fucking genius. Anyone who peeped the Vespertine or the 2003 tour can tell you that.

Plus, Homogenic, Post, Debut, AND Vespertine are CLASSICS in their own right.

I hate people who refer to well -trained singers as having "good pipes", don't you?

Dan McClain was a top vocalist, but his pipes were shit.

Pipes are for fucking, or for shitting through.

What is meant by "good pipes" anyway? Do you want to see X-Ray pictures?

Sugarcubes are definitely one of those bands whose music didn't age well at all. I tried to listen to them a couple of years ago and it was like nails on a blackboard.

please explain. i find it rather useful, in much the same way as "rock", "classical" or "jazz". back in the day one could use the generic term "techno", but that's actually a specific style. would y'all prefer "electronic music" to be used instead? (cue witty indie-hipster come-back "no, i'd prefer that the genre disappear instead"… :roll: )
