Bands You Shouldn’t Be Wasting Your Time With (The Annotated List)

pantspantsrevolution:

That being said they’re clearly not for everyone.  But try to judge an artist’s music by merit and not by fan base.  I’m also guilty of this.

I’m a big Dave Matthews Band fan, as you know, and I think labeling an artist because of their fan base is what you’re doing with them. I agree, about 60-70% of their fans are idiots, but I like the music and I try to not let it upset me too much. I think that because you believe many of the fans are uninteresting and retarded, the music will be uninteresting and retarded as well. Sometimes that’s true, sometimes it’s not. I think if you actually sat down and did some critical listening, you would find at least a few of their songs are complex, interesting, moving, and fun.
