>Implying that he has any ability to judge music after saying he likes it cause it looks cool and makes him popular
No I just like supporting him for what he's doing. He's no Michael Jackson (atleast yet), and he's new to the music (writing) world, but like KISS, Alice Cooper, and MJ, he's doing it for entertainment, therefor I automatically (not by choice) feel their music. Pop isn't as creative, but it's generally pure, and it represents what genre it's based upon. Plus, I don't just like one artist. I can honestly say that Diablo Swing Orchestra, Mastadon, and Rammstein's Liebe ist für alle were, musically, my favourite albums.
True, Alot of indie sucks, However me and aden dont really like indie. So your argument is a moot point. Vocal based music is awful. Micheal Jackson excluded derp derp.
My bad, I though Aden liked indie. I picked that up from the ranting he had talked about. Plus, anything-based music sucks. Vocals set a feeling of presence, but, like you said, if the music is created around the lyrics and vocals, it generally sucks nuts. I prefer to work around Bass and piano. Then percussion, guitar, and then singing, and if the verses were rapped, whispered, or screamed, then the vocals in the chorus should corrospond with the lead melody.
