"Uninspired"
| quote: | | adj. Having no intellectual, emotional, or spiritual excitement; dull |
Precisely what I find Aphex Twin to be.
| quote: | | Nobody who's heard more than three Aphex Twin tracks could call the guy "uninspired" because he has made an incredible variety of music and most of his tracks sound utterly different to everything else out there. |
Wrong. By your logic, he could throw a couple of saucepans around a kitchen, and because it's "utterly different to everything else out there", it's good?
| quote: | | to call him "uninspired" is an absolute joke. |
Because it's an opinion and differs to what you think? Whatever.
| quote: | | Try saying "I don't like him" next time instead of summoning up pompous and unfounded criticisms to sound more valid. |
If I said "I don't like him" you'd then accuse me of making sweeping generalisations.

What's that got to do with anything? See the dictionary definition above. Would you rather I said "I think AT has no intellectual, emotional, or spiritual excitement, and I find him dull", rather than simply typing "uninspired"?
It's like in the classical world, some idiot raving about the next Glass or Leontsky piece because "it has so many mordants, Tristan chords, hemi-demi-semi quavers, and moves forward with 'beautiful' homophonic progression is techincally omgsogood", but when in fact it sounds utterly boring and horrid.

There's a word that sums up this sort of behaviour, and that word is 'reject.' |
