Says the guy who 5's The Mars Volta, which is just as genre hoppy, but instead annoyingly whiny |
ktjammin
05.22.19 | Absolutely correct opinion |
LOVEANDACCEPTANCE
05.22.19 | and by whiny you mean actually vocally talented and melodically exceptional, yea |
sixdegrees
05.22.19 | polka interludes and slide whistle are much more powerful forms of expression agreed hard ars |
Space Jester
05.22.19 | The Mars Volta >>> Mr. Bungle
Not that clarification was needed |
Avagantamos
05.22.19 | the first breakdown I heard was The Saddest Day and no breakdown has came close to that since, so overall breakdowns have been a disappointment to me |
JustJoe.
05.23.19 | I prefer Bungle over The Volta. |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | "vocally talented and melodically exceptional, yea"
Imagine thinking Mike Patton isn't vocally talented. The dude can and has sung opera even. |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | "polka interludes and slide whistle are much more powerful forms of expression agreed hard ars"
Band has covered 50+ styles of music, but sure let's focus on the 2 goofiest they've done to make some non-point |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | joke band? |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | If you can't tell the difference between a band with a sense of humor like Mr. Bungle and an actual joke band, then you're just willfully ignorant
Who am I kidding? You already know the difference, you're just an elitist who thinks the only acceptable sense of humor is being an asshole |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | are they supposed to be a comedy act |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | If your trolling is going to be this lazy, my responses will also be:
You already know the difference, you're just an elitist who thinks the only acceptable sense of humor is being an asshole |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | didnt they make fun of the guy from RHCP's heroin addiction lol guess that is a pretty successful brand of humor |
TheSpaceMan
05.23.19 | Mr. Bungle is a clown name |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | That was after Anthony Kiedis demanded that Mr. Bungle be kicked off a festival setlist for having too similar an album title to RHCP's, so Bungle did that as a fuck you to Kiedis
Not saying it's right, but it's not like they did it for no reason
|
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | so you agree that it was a good bit |
TheSpaceMan
05.23.19 | i think he's saying the sketch was justified, if not a bit underwhelming |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | hmmm sounds pretty asshole-ish I dunno, kinda fucked up |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | Honestly, less assholish than kicking someone off a festival setlist
And I just did some research and Kiedis had them kicked off not one, but three different festivals before they did that skit
Kiedis's response to their skit? Getting them kicked from a 4th festival
Pretty sure Kiedis was a WAY bigger asshole here and the agressor |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | did you think it was a good bit though |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | Nah, it was petty
Not really seeing your point though... a band does a petty thing once as retaliation and this has to do with them on the whole how? |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | just seems like for a "band with a sense of humor"....their sense of humor is questionable |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | Yeah man, one petty joke that isn't on their albums ruins an entire band catalog, totally
Just like 1 unfunny joke during a stand-up comedian's routine makes that comedian automatically awful |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | thought they weren't a comedy act hmmm...surely their sense of humor shouldn't make or break their catalog if that's the case |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | Literally my point, it doesn't affect it at all |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | good thing no one made that argument huh |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | What is your point, then? What does their 1999 "fuck you Anthony Kiedis" bit have do to with anything? |
R4zor3dge
05.23.19 | Not when they're overused |

05.23.19 | I'm trying to puzzle out when "being an asshole for humor" is acceptable according to your standards |
hal1ax
05.23.19 | breakdowns >>> ars' clown band |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | you dont understand they're a satire of a novelty act |
Tyler.
05.23.19 | hey ars what, in your expert opinion, is the comedy value of fetal alcohol syndrome? im just trying to undersand what u mean here |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | "ars' clown band"
My clown band? As if I'm anywhere near the only one who likes Mr. Bungle. All 3 of their albums have 4+ averages with over 900 votes (over 1,500 with a 4.4 average for California.) It's not like thinking that they're great is even close to controversial.
I know you guys are just fucking with me because you're bored, but seriously your arguments aren't even good |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | they're a subversion of a clown circus act....its multi layered |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | ah yes the appeal to popularity defense |
hal1ax
05.23.19 | ars i need some advice: my friend's band got dropped from the set list at a local music festival coming up. can i go ahead and give him the green light on disparaging the booking agent's wife who is dying of cancer?? thx!!! :] |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | This is stupid, I already said what they did was bad
But keep on ignoring it for whatever shit argument you keep trying to make
|
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | "ah yes the appeal to popularity defense"
Literally, I said that because hal1ax was trying to make it seem like they're a "me" thing rather than a popular group among people on Sputnik, appeal to popularity makes no sense here as a criticism |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | interesting that you seemed to think that was a serious argument on his part that needed to be defended with statistics |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | "they're a subversion of a clown circus act....its multi layered"
They're literally just a band who likes incorporating a ton of different styles mashed together. Mr. Bungle isn't trying to be deep, I never see Mr. Bungle fans act like they're deep, I'm not trying to argue that they're deep. Who are you arguing against? |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | what do mr. bungle call their tour van?
the clown car |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | There's a clown on their first album, so?
Is clown imagery inherently bad? |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | would you describe them as a clown band? |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | No.
Is Ride a Cucumber Face Mask band? |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | whats that |
hal1ax
05.23.19 | ars how much influence did your clown band draw from bozo the clown??? feel free to present your answer in the form of high school level statistics |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | I'd say a band that tells jokes on stage and employs clown imagery and circus music could reasonably be described as a "clown band" |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.23.19 | Mr Bungle have breakdowns.
can we be happy again? |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | What's what? Ride? A band you have an album 5'd by or a cucumber face mask? The image on their sophomore release? |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | they actually satirize breakdowns whereas the real thing is for 14 year olds |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | not aware of ride devoting any musical or lyrical content to uhhh...cucumber masks |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.23.19 | true but Goodbye Sober Day still goes hard as fuck |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | "I'd say a band that tells jokes on stage and employs clown imagery and circus music could reasonably be described as a "clown band""
I guess on their debut album, but they didn't do that for the other 2. It was an album specific theme |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | "not aware of ride devoting any musical or lyrical content to uhhh...cucumber masks
So you're saying their choice in album covers is arbitrary to the musical content? Sounds lazy and random for the sake of random |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | how would you go about incorporating cucumber masks thematically into a multimedia piece of art? |
Tyler.
05.23.19 | so how much clowning does a band have to put in to be considered an bonafide clown band rather than being lazy and random. does this question make sense |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | I really feel like its a theme that could be expanded upon... |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.23.19 | how many breakdowns does a bonafide clown band have to put in to be considered musically effective |
hexfix93
05.23.19 | I will never understand peoples' obsessions with breakdowns. Some breakdowns are sick when they're not overused but I mean people legit make compilations of "the most broootal breakdowns" and they all sound the same lmao.
I'll take sick riffs and guitar solos over breakdowns all day. |
Tyler.
05.23.19 | ars is really being clowned on rn LOL |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | "how would you go about incorporating cucumber masks thematically into a multimedia piece of art?"
I was kidding, but here's a serious response anyway: that actually wouldn't be hard at all. Just mention it once in the lyrics or something. |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | would that make them a "Cucumber Mask band"? or just a band who employ cucumber mask themes |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | Idk you're the one who thinks a band is a "_____ band" if they incorporate some themes into their work, so by your logic...yes, by mine, no |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | what about a band that literally plays circus music
|
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | The Beatles did that on Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!, are they are clown band? |
Tyler.
05.23.19 | yes? |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | I feel like the clown themes weren't really expanded upon on Sgt Peppers |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.19 | There's a clown on the cover of Sgt. Peppers, above George Harrison |
sixdegrees
05.23.19 | I feel like clown costumes and a live comedy routine would've really sold the clown band aesthetic |

05.23.19 | ars, deferring to your expertise on the matter, what are some stylistic changes--compositionally, instrumentally, etc.-- that can be made by nascent clown or circus music groups so as to afford them better chances of remaining relevant in our modern music landscape? please , serious answers only. |
