Music you are exposed to involuntarily.

Spanish people are an abomination.

I have this new neighbour who plays acoustic guitar and sings Beatles songs with an insufferable pained inflection often when I try to read. I can manage to ignore the sound and read through it but then a weird thing happens where it's like if I'm not angry at the music then I'm okay with it which means I start to feel as though I'm acquiescing to the mood of his music. I can't read to the music without ignoring but if I ignore it then it starts imposing itself on the mood I see myself in and it's awful.

It's a complicated mental game that I have yet to figure out.

Kill him.

Spanish people are an abomination.

They do tend to lead abominable lives full of ham, olive oil, endless fiestas and rock. They are very good at clapping though.

This feels like the plot of a novella.

Wait, do you live in Spain?

Kill him.

Sometimes his girlfriend sings along with him while he plays. Wouldn't mind taking them both out with a sweeping thor like hammer strike.

 

[muser]

Wait, do you live in Spain?

Yes

 

[craner]

I love the Spanish.

 

[craner]

Corpsey is livid with me.

rock music is really big in spain isn't it? i remember being very surprised the first time in spain, i expected everybody to listen to latin music but instead all the guys were wearing eyeliner and dark clothes.

Spanish rock and indie have to be contenders for the worst music of all time. I don't mind the reggaeton so much, but the rock? 😫

 

[entertainment]

Barcelona is filled with very tattooed and pierced people. "Alternative rock" still a subculture (subculture still a thing).

Oasis were huge in Latin countries weren't they?

 

[luka]

Colossal.

 

[Benny Bunter]

And before them the smiths were huge

don't think the stone roses crossed over

I love the Spanish.

Fairly sure Craner has never met a Spaniard.

There are some amazing vids of them playing in Argentina. The crowd's nuts.

 

[luka]

Wow! No one can tell me that's not the greatest band of all time.

Look at this crowd. That shot at 1:57...
