By the way, this complaint applies to child musicians on the internet as well - as long as the child isn't performing on a professional level. I consider it borderline child abuse to tell them they are amazing musicians when they actually haven't learned, practiced, or experienced enough to...

Look, I didn't like Thunderpussy, but at least they are trying to create unique "art" which is their's alone. Clearly they are aimed at extreme hardcore feminist anger management candidates, which isn't my scene, but it is highly commendable of them. At least they aren't cheap Chinese knockoffs...

To note... those photos were added to show examples of how much the original hair bands looked like young vixens eager to blow a rock star.

Well, it finally happened. While I was mildly irritated by people on Social Media posting videos of girl metal bands and calling them "BAD ASS" or "KICK ASS" or "ROCKIN' ASS" or some form of ass being used to mean really rocking their instruments and music, there has been a substantial increase...

That is the inside joke. Every time I post about any music which could remotely be called Prog Rock, my buddy @Towen7 says "Prog rock sucks." Since this is power pop, he appears to have chosen instead to take the brilliantly subtle approach of pointing out the song is more than 3 minutes long...

Facts are facts. Just don't drag me into a fight with strangers. The statements you quoted are bad acoustic theory and fail to account for how humans hear sound and interpret it.

The Lickerish Quartet is releasing an EP soon and the initial single is pretty damned good! I cannot wait! They intentionally were trying recapture the style and feel of a band who would have been "influential" about 35 years ago. In an interview I heard on the radio band leader Roger Joseph...

I'm frustrated that the baddie in Picard looks identical to Spock in Star Trek: Discovery.

Because... marketing! They need a new audience who is young and will stick with them while Disney + tries to drive them away.

Yet another exhibit that Rock is dead - Here's a group of extremely talented musicians dedicated to perfectly recreating the music of the Beatles performing to a bunch of people who likely bought this album the day it was released. They are incredibly good at imitating the sound and...

I am not disagreeing with that assessment... but again, may I direct you to every single Star Trek TV series prior to Picard as evidence that this assessment applies to all of them.

Maybe if everyone had to sit through the entire second season of Star Trek: TNG and be reminded that 80% of it is boring shit that was painful to wade through and thus making the interesting other 20% as exciting and entertaining as possible, maybe then they'd realize Picard is exceptionally...

I think you guys want too much. I think "Picard" is a very nice show. It plays similarly to the majority of the Star Trek series, especially Deep Space 9. Never forget, most Start Trek series were less action and more about good humans dealing with interpersonal issues with bad humans and aliens...

Yeah, the CBS app blows!

I was talking to some local austin musicians last week and they were telling me that their club gigs have turned into jukebox shows. People go out of their way to go see a specific band, then the sit in groups shouting at one another through the majority of the performance. From time to time the...

Here's another argument supporting the death of rock music... I've noticed a trend in shows and podcasts relating to the history of rock and roll. There is a huge nostalgia movement going on right now as there are massive numbers of shows, podcasts, both professional and amateur documentaries...

How's about a little "micro-tonal" music? The notes are not spaced the same as almost all music. There could be 24 or 30 note pitches per octave versus 8 in a common scale. I wonder how you make a guitar to play this stuff?

What can you expect? If the original film has a visible graininess to it, as the director might have intentionally included for effect, then remastering would accurately preserve that graininess.

I don't believe that at all.

Seriously, even fans will get creeped out:
