Acts you don't "get"

Kendrick Lamar 

[CaledonianGonzo]

If anything the follow up single was even worse.

[stuartbert two hats]

Sam Smith

[Stokesy10]

Daft Punk.

 

[CaledonianGonzo]

If anything it's like the Dolmio adverts in that it's a wee bit racist about Italians.

Ever heard in a club? I didn't get em too until I went to some party where dj played 30 minutes of their stuff in a row. 2 hours after that were so boring

All of social media falling over itself tonight to pretend they were the biggest band in existence before their split has been a bit weird. Don't Mug Yourself is a banger though, and Dry Your Eyes is iconic.

The Streets are well up there for me for acts I don't get. At all.

[DDave]

Frank Ocean.....just bland.

When I was a yoof I didn't relate. Used phrases like "mug yourself", "rudeboys" and I felt a million miles away from it. I found Skinner really annoying.

Listened  to original pirate material on the way to work. It isn't for me. His voice doesn't do it for me at all, I find it annoying. Listening more intently the words are generally alright,  but I find it pretty boring to be honest.

Try A Grand Don't Come For Free from beginning to end, I was genuinely blown away by it when I heard it for the first time.

Metallica, Iron Maiden, metal in general.....

'cept Purple and Rush, even then selective.....

I don't get not getting the Streets at all. Again ten years have just gone since this.

 

[aidenlangan95]

I think The Streets have aged really badly. The lyrics are probably the best part of them for me.

[FuzzyDunlop]

The Foo Fighters.

I like Everlong, Monkey Wrench, My Hero & another that escapes me. I dont get why people are loving them. People were shocked that I didn't watch them on the farm. 

1 dimensional in the extreme.

I watched the Glastonbury gig back & I wasn't impressed.

Myself and @Wooderson had a conversation at the gig about whether Status Quo were better in 2009. They were. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

What if you endured a whole evening of acapella to hear the one big hit and they didn't even play it?

Doesn't really sound like a fair competition.  Status Quo this year was probably better, and one of them was dead

Live videos are how I got what was going on.

There's not much big or obvious to latch onto in their music, for me it all came down to noticing the intricate interplay Bryce and Aaron have going on. From there it all just seemed to make sense, the way all these elements are layered on top of each other, everything's so deliberate. Matt's voice was a huge turnoff when I first listened, but I can't get enough of it now. It's weird, I can't reconcile the songs I'm obsessed with now with being the same songs I thought were unremarkable a couple of years ago.

Agree, I just love the National.  The songwriting is fantastic and musically just brilliant.  I can't get dance music at all, just find it so repetitive.  I also love metal which others probably find repetitive.  Suppose that's what's so great about music

I second this 

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

Was just stood in a queue in the Co-Op and they were playing Biffy Clyro. Not sure which song, could've been any of them. Never got the Biff. 

[Gnomicide]

Co-op The Biff?

That doesn't really work, does it?
