That's not what you said before. You said "fawning" over technicality is cope simpliciter.

that's a bad parse you've got there, and it is exactly what i was suggesting before

Album Rating: 3.0

You never said anything about predicting that people will cope if "songcraft" becomes the more predominant topic in music discourse.

This all began with somebody lyric posting that "shit the bed again" lyric lol

"You never said anything"
it was to be inferred as the cope cause and was explicated after
this is cope

Wish I could contribute to the discourse but I know dick-all about music theory tbh



Is technical music a pedal board big enough to break a roadie's back and a drummer who can play in 17/8 while simultaneously homophobically thrusting his finger at an audience member in 4/4?

i believe that astute observation comes under "Individual acts of iconoclasm are usually associated with a mental disturbance"

but that now makes two of us iconoclasming together

This is what makes Tool discussions so fruitful. There's something for everyone in their music.

"it was to be inferred as the cope cause and was explicated after"

That's what I'm contesting. Your follow up answer was:



"If .... then the result would be a neverending cope"



If you didn't think that "fawning over technical proficiency is cope-in-denial 101" then just say that you retract the claim and your follow up responses are more in line with what you are trying to communicate.

If you want ammo against Carey, read Unleashed: The Story of Tool. Dude is so ARROGANT. Wish good musicians could just be nice.

Just checked the url and this is sputnikmusic review #6669

""If .... then the result would be a neverending cope"

that is a hypothetical scenario

the factor preventing it from materialising is the denial side of the cope-in-denial equation

techwank shitchat denies meaningful discourse about songcraft in which wankers cope

[ad break]

"Wish good musicians could just be nice."

what about Luc Lemay, Marnie Stern, and the other one

Robbie Basho?

our lord and saviour, he will rise again!

Maybe we are all somewhere on the cope-in-denial spectrum.

technical proficiency is inversely correlated with quality

I'm totally sane and not over the hill yet Eg

ever since our other lord and saviour sid vicious ended musicianship
