Bullshit Thread #7

[your sister gets me hard]

I can't understand why someone would support that sad excuse for an artist by buying such expensive tickets. enjoyíng her songs is one thing, but seeing her live? yuck.

lolz

if you actually paid that i honesty hope you get a brain tumor and die. you're willingly funding the death of music. i'm usually not a mean or ill willed person but FUCK YOU!!!!

if you actually mean this then you know nothing about loving music.

lady gaga is not some pop artist you won't even remember in ten years. her show is an example of how she combines both high and lowbrow culture. she is a pop blend of the two. popart. there's theory and thought behind her facade, behind her image. the monster ball is a thesis she has written. her bibliography is on her sleeve. her citations are in the melodies, in her lyrics, and in her fashion. at one point she says her management is upset with her that she spends too much money on her shows. if you get a chance to attend the monster ball you will understand why. she delivers to all of us, and we are all monsters!

Mazzy just raped your face.

Other than the gimmick of looking like the nurse of Silent Hill, there is virtually no difference between Lady Gaga and Britney Spears and you dumb broads deserve to be smacked in the fucking face.

lady gaga's album is titled 'the fame'. stefani germanotta plays the character "lady gaga." lady gaga is nothing but fiction. a pop construct to maneuver in a pop world. lady gaga is a non-person, she becomes the ideal "pop star." the epitome of pop stardom. lady gaga's strive for pop stardom follows empty pop culture tropes. with clichéd dreams filled of fame, money, and success, gaga strives for a career in the music industry. but this path becomes a pop pastiche. gaga is just imitating the artist's before her, but what makes her different is her self-awareness. the self-conscious and self-aware pop star is something new. this is what makes gaga the post-postmodern pop star. this is what makes her different than britney spears. and what makes it beyond brilliant is that lady gaga (or whoever is behind that facade) has crafted this persona/image all herself. these are not music executives planning her every move. the swedes are not writing her songs. gaga is doing the songwriting and the crafting of her image. she has all creative control. through her self-conscious rise to fame she is critiquing the very system and institution she is borrowing to get there in the first place.

i was walking past a gay pub on oxford st tonight and this guy leaned his head out of the front window and said to me, "honey, if only i was straight."

i couldn't stop smiling.

I'm going to try that chat up line on some women tonight, wish me luck.

i think it only worked because he really was gay. i wouldn't use it if you were straight. normally pick up lines never work on me. i was just walking down the street that night and i was really pissed because my mates are all twats and this guy appears out of nowhere and says it and it put me in a good mood.

haha no shit! i was only joking.

re. Lady Gaga

I would say, she isn't that bad, she uses the same techniques as MJ and even Marilyn Manson. Stunts like the penis thing and dressing 'weird' to generate interest and cultivate an otherwordly image. Ignoring all the front and concentrating on the music, she's alright, good catchy pop, whether she'll ever grow into Madonnas shoes is another question...whether she has a penis is also another question.

The wang issue was addressed in the newest video, Telephone, featuring Beyonce.

we must not forget gaga is still just a newborn in a pop lifespan so whether she will ever grow into madonna's shoes is not something we ought to address after she's released a few more records.

it's great you mentioned marilyn manson. manson was even quoted in rolling stone magazine saying, "she knows exactly what she's doing. she's very smart, she's not selling out, she's a great musician, she's a great singer, and she's laughing when she's doing it, the same way that i am." the self-conscious artist, knowing exactly what to do to grab the attention of our culture. what manson did in the late-90s was create a movement in rock and roll. he denounces the term "shock rock" but that is what he will be known for. he shocked the world with his antics on stage. breaking glass bottles and cutting his stomach open with the jagged pieces on stage at music festivals. he was rumored to giving his bassist twiggy rameriz fellatio on multiple occasions while playing. even if the blowjob was staged it shocked the world. people condemned him for all of society's immorality. he became the scapegoat for the columbine shootings, the reason a teenager in texas committed suicide, etc. the list of manson's antics could go on. but what manson didn't have that gaga does is the entire world in her hands. that is what makes lady gaga so brilliant. her immersion in popular culture is endless. she leaks into every crevice of our culture.

manson was only able to court a small population of culturists. only people who are already predisposed to metal, goth, and industrial sounds were actually listening to him. that is only a fraction of our population. lady gaga has crept into our pop consciousness so cunningly.

madonna 2.0 i say. she is lame and fail.

[blixa]

why can't people give a smart response as to why they don't like her. saying she's "lame" isn't a proper opinion or justification of your opinion. lady gaga is not only an artist for the masses but an artist that completely encapsulates our current post-postmodern condition. she's both plague and cure. because "everyone" listens to her, if they like it or not, she has so much power.

i think if she deserves a verbal bashing from any one of you it has to be justified properly by a somewhat smart response considering the impact she's having and making on the pop world.

do you know how many times i've heard how shit the deftones are and how such an intelligent person like me can like them. it gets boring and i'm never tempted to give these people a proper response because no one gives me anything worth responding to.

[Sea Bass]

youre a smart person. but trying to justify why lady gaga rocks the (pop) world is not a smart way to make she powerful. the media already did that job for her. think about it, she dont give a fuck about us, the fans.

why doesn't she care about us, the fans? explain it to me because i'm under the assumption that she's here for us.

it sounds like you're about to make an intelligent point. i hope you make it.

I was at the bar with two of my friends tonight.  Earlier a Bible-thumper tried to give my a pamphlet which I declined (I live in the south, Bob Jones University is in my town if that helps).  Later when we were at the bar I asked one of my friends if the guy stopped me because I was wearing a Led Zeppelin shirt and when you play Stairway to Heaven backwards it says 666.  When I said that a guy at the bar next to us freaked and seriously questioned if we were sure it said stuff when we played it backwards.

Madonna sucks balls, lady gaga sucks balls. Goldfrapp is where its at peeps

It's because despite all of the intelligent things she says, and presents, through her music, it's horribly delivered. The lyrics are repetitive and simple, the music is nothing close to innovative, and she's following the long line of sex symbol pop artists that always fade out within a few years. Oh sure, she'll stay, but it will never be the same as it is now. If she'd focus her energy into a different format she'd be brilliant. I also have to say that having power in the "pop" forum does nothing for me. Sheeple enjoy their white noise. I know anyone on here can argue for influences of pop (hell, even on the Deftones), but even the bands I listen to were influenced by different genres or offbeat "pop", and not the same old song and dance.

Not only that, she's completely controlled now. When you become as big as she is in the mainsteam, other people start calling the shots.

[your sister gets me hard]

You nigs need to all relax and stop trying to "stick it to the man" or whine about shit that doesn't have drop c# tuning.  Christ, it's funny to here people bash pop music yet a lot of you listen to little bitch crybabies sing about losing their girlfriends.  Hearing "ra ma ma maaaa" > hearing "wahhhhh she broke my heart" being sung by a dude wearing chick pants.
