As long as they are just saying it's a thing of preference I don't really mind but if someone totally shits on a talented artist and doesn't even have respect for them that's when I get pissed off. If don't like someone it's either because they actually have absolutely no talent or it's just my personal preference but I won't flame them, I'll just say I don't like them.

Sorry to disappoint you, but contrary to your popular belief everyone is not thinking about you or focused on what you say, or even really cares.

I think before an someone says an artist "sucks" they should ask themselves, "have I produced anything better?" And even if you have, it's only better in your opinion. The quality of music is all opinion based, since all music is a specific arrangement of certain sounds that affects each person differently. Stating that an artist sucks is an attempt at stating a fact, not giving an opinion, and that annoys me.

Haha... so true.

You know what ticks me off too? Someone who only listens to one, or even a handful of songs by an artist, especially one who's been around awhile and has gone through several "periods" or "phases" -- and then dismisses them entirely, saying "I HATE SO-AND-SO, EVERYTHING THEY DO SUCKS!!". That's downright myopic.

I'm guilty of this myself, historically.

i even cover trance songs. so i think u need to rethink what u said.

nobody quote me as i cant be arsed to reply with something witty or bother read this thread again because i have a lot of fingering to do apparently.

Actually, it should be the other way around. The ignoramuses, who know little about your favourite artist and even less about electronic music, who defend their position by saying "techno sucks"....those are the people you shouldn't be bothered with. Because they are idiots, and aren't worthy of talking to.

It's the people who can back up what they say with an airtight, indefensible argument whom you should be worried about. Because their reasoning is sound and their comments are justified, it makes what they have to say virtually unignorable. You can't just dismiss them as retarded dissidents who've been grossly misinformed. You have to deal with them. And stand up for your tastes under dire scrutiny.

But it's their opinion, and if it's reasonable, there's no point arguing with it. I won't argue just because their tastes don't coincide with mine. You may have a point about trance having massive breakdowns. To you that's bad, but to me it could be a good thing. Nobody is right or wrong.

EDIT: Sorry, didn't realise it was you initially. Edited now.
