There are bop bands and there are banger bands. 75 are a bop band. Can a banger band write a bop? And vice versa? And can either write a tune? I miss being young, I really do.

I miss being young, I really do. Sure, The 1975 have produced a couple of bangers in their time. Love It When We Made It certainly isn't a bop, so it might fall more into the banger category.

Quark Posted November 30, 2018 Report Share Posted November 30, 2018 It's the weapon chat all over again. Incidentally someone used that the other day to mean someone who's really good at what they do. Completely fucking threw me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quark Posted November 30, 2018 Report Share Posted November 30, 2018 Not in the least. But thanks for trying. I shall just go on using words I don't understand as I think appropriate, and accept that at some point it'll be massively wrong. At which point I'll just claim that's what it means where I come from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not every song made by those bands has to be a bop or a banger but like, A-Punk, that's pure boppery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well tune is more ambiguous, isn't it? It doesn't tell you much about the qualities of a song other than it being good. Bops and bangers can both be be tunes, but it's very rare for a song to be both a bop and a banger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mash011 Posted November 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2018 (edited) I got seven thumb down reacts (a new record!) for posting my blazing hot take in a group chat so I'm bringing it out here: The most surprising thing about the new 1975 record is not that they manage to make themselves into The Radiohead Of Today, but that they manage to do that while simultaneously being The My Chemical Romance Of Today. And though they will forever beguile the gammons and chin-scratchers, it's their ability to be both of those things at once that makes them such a vital band.

On The Blend Posted November 30, 2018 Report Share Posted November 30, 2018 Reading this is like doing a GCSE maths paper. If not all bops are tunes and no bops are bangers, how many bangers are tunes when written by Muse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to hold my judgement until I've finished the album, as people keep coming and interrupting me with work. But based on what I've heard so far, history will not be looking favourably upon your analysis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
