Suck. It's short, it's nasty, it's to the point. Nice little way to say that something is terrible, horrible, and practically worthless.Now just because you don't dig the Tom Waits album your friend is obsessed with, or you are convinced that Conor Oberst is the whiniest, most emo kid around doesn't mean you have any right to tell them their music taste sucks. I mean I understand if certain artists just aren't your style. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. But when you go and insult either an artist or someone's music taste without any valid reason other than "it just sucks", you are being completely rude and close-minded. However, there are some exceptions to this. I think you are allowed to say an artist sucks if they clearly have no talent whatsoever and seem to be in the business solely to con listeners into buying millions and millions of dollars worth of crappy CDs that you can plainly see have no ounce of emotion in them and have obviously been corrected with auto-tune.So kids, there is a lesson within this rant. The next time a friend introduces that old Death Cab album you find tiresome or the new Arctic Monkeys album that you don't find as good as the first one, please take caution when voicing your opinion. A simple "Eh, not really my cup of tea" is sufficient. The minute that terrible four-letter word escapes your lips, you have unleashed bad vibes, possible feuds, and can cause your friend to write angry blogs like this one that may or may not be as tactfully worded. Oh and just so you know, please do not tell me that indie music is terribly boring, especially Yo La Tengo. Because I am not afraid of you, and I will beat your ass.
