Are Modern "Indie" Bands Just The Modern Equlivants Of Manafactured Boy Bands?

I didn't see this reply before, so pardon me for it being late.

I don't care what you think...you made the comment "interesting" after my post to be vague...and if I challenged you on it, you could say whataver...but would've achieved your goal at getting a rise out of me. Good stuff.

I meant what I said, you were on point and I found that interesting seeing as you're usually about a mile off base.

i'm not saying that hawthorne heights is a reaction to black flag. that was my explanation for post-rock and post-modernism, both of which i could explain. post-hardcore just happens to be what it's called. in this case, i imagine that it really does mean simply "hardcore after hardcore".

Sure...tell that to the thread starter. I was just going along with the thread and how some others were discussing this as well. Are The Killers manufactured? Maybe we're all wrong. He agrees I knew what he meant though, so don't focus on me.

This'll have to wait...I'm on 9 pages...too busy now. It'll come. Wait.

Then there's no need. It's just SOME kind of music with a label lumped on it, rock fits best, however general. When you can't pinpoint, it IS better to be general.

I CAN go into all the different kinds of metal; black, death, power etc. I can define why each are different, I don't, because they're still all metal bands. I KNOW they are different, so it's not lazy, I'm not perceiving each as something they aren't.

Point being, post-hardcore is just a lazy label, in ANY case, even the more reaction-to explanations.

9 pages of why music has an objective standard, which is a factually incorrect stance, unchangeable by any amount of pages. Possibly THE worse exercise in futility ever witnessed.

All for "This is my argument.", *We prove you wrong again.*, "Nah, you don't get it, you're blind.".

He couldn't resist to start talking about this in here could he? Unbelievable

No offense meant, EP, but this argument (Which is pointless anyway, as you're factually wrong.) has been almost four days coming. I could have wrote an ACTUAL novel from scratch, as in made up a story and everything.

It's taken three...approaching four days of writing 9 or more pages about something you are undeniably wrong regarding. It's just...baffling to me.

Dude...you're kind of obsessed with this...

I'm in no rush to finish...I'm in the middle of moving...

Stop asking me about it on this thread...and PM-ing every second day.

strange

It's been four days, in which time I have been informed by another reliable member of this site that you have spent time posting very frequently in other forums.

You have time to post there, it seems, why aren't you spending it finishing this ridiculous argument post that you have guaranteed for days? Simple question, many of us are curious.

Dude...you're getting kinda freaky. I'm serious.

...actually, I think you're just kind of obsessed.

No, really, what is taking you 4 days and 9 pages. Why would you keep saying almost done, and keep guaranteeing it, if it's taken you 4 days?

It IS a reasonable question, EP. Know what I think? I think you are scared, and I'll leave it there.

AC. Please go away and stop trying to get a rise out of me by talking about unrelated thread topics.

Thank you

Well I did PM you civilly, and in a peaceful manner regarding this, and you wouldn't take the time out of moving and posting on KMC to reply to me.

I'm not content with letting you slither away from this, but I'll wait a day longer.

i think Ep is full of it!
