My guess is if you posted a song with continuing cacophonous honking horns, fingernails on blackboards, and arm farts, with a video of a steaming pile of shit with flies buzzing around it, you'd get 500 likes, 23 dislikes,etc. If you like it you do. If you don't you don't. Why bother to register the negative, or have these silly arguments? In any case, I think Kaki King is wonderful! Endlessly creative and original.
@LloydRamsey We get it - you don't like Kaki King. You're following her songs on youtube and commenting negatively at every turn. If you don't like it, go elsewhere. You're bordering on obsessive. Your channel has nothing but dislikes for another guitarist . Otherwise nothing - no favorites, no posts...nothing! Why?

I'm actually happy that the biggest names in music are people like Ke$ha and Justin Bieber or over-rated Hip Hop artists with lyrics about acquring lots of money and getting with lots of women. The reason that makes me happy is because it seperates the people who actually care about the real artistic value of music from the people who it really doesn't make a difference to. This is just music more at it's purest state and only some who truly understand it actually appreciate it. It is true art.
@wretchrow Actually, it is real music. Those people have different music tastes. Hip Hop and Indie are both music, and we should respect that. Yes, it is shallow, but it is still music, and its shallowness is what makes it its own kind of music.
I love Kaki, but poeple have the right to like different music
@SugarSpellItOut24 Well looking back I do suppose you are right. I can't understand how someone else feels listening to a song. Only that specific person knows their own feelings and understands what makes the music they listen to great to them. You are completely right.
I went on a trip with my schools band and this song was playing the background of some local weather station when I turned on the tv in the hotel. I immediately recognized it and told my friend in the room "this may sound weird, but i know and love this song." and started humming along with it.
Kaki this peice is absolutly fantastic, there's something so perfectly feminine about it's texture and progression. the artistic concepts also acompany the mood this song establishes so well, and it's flow with the rhythme ties it to the song just as well!
I think what I'm trying to say is.. I liked this song :)
@emobeccaahha idk, i think it's this idea that the world continues on and on and the rotating rooster thing is the sun. and that one figure floating above all of the other ones is a God and towards the end he sends down disease and problems (as expressed by the food coloring and clouds), but in the end people keep moving forward (that's a reason why the cars drive on tape measures, it's an expression of progress and distances traveled).
it;s not what the artist wants to say, it's what the viewer recieves silly! whatever you're diciphering that mysterious message to be, you're inarguably correct! tittyfuck the naysayers!!!
I dunno...as an artist I lean a lil more towards what "Numnumonmymballs" said...yes, a listener's interpretation can't be "wrong," but that also means that it can't be "right" - especially if the artist's sentiments about the song conflict with any listener's interpretation!
I guess I lie somewhere in between this train of thought!
@wgtroutman34 so mad i wasnt there...not because of the shirt thing actually. she fucking rocks. i was at bonnaroo this past year. i wouldve loved to see her perform.
@CaptainNensho Check, people with strong words and a loud mouth on tube have always no content at all on their channel. I guess u will never know what my sexual orientation is. Besides that, I wonder why u like to know, anyway.
Wow, I say I dislike her and I create a shitstorm. The immaturity is amusing, I must admit.
First of all, the reason people leave disparaging comments on music videos is because they have an open mind and like to listen to new music. If we like what we hear we listen to more. If we do not, we use the handy comment feature to express our dislike. I see nasty comments on music videos I enjoy, but I do not insult the poster even when the comment is ridiculous and offensive.
I like her music and how it inspires contemplation. I feel like I can wander much farther in the paths she creates in her music than I could on my own.
i would consider King to be one of the few artists who attempt to take music to another level, and i would also consider her to be one of the successfull.
I honestly put her up there with satch and vai in the sense of melody and harmony writing. and to form it with such an insightfull and artistic video.
hard work honestly pays off with this peice alone, Great job.
Also, if you a musician who thinks theres one way to look at music, you might as well change yoru name to yngwie
I agree with your comment completely, but I'm just curious how familiar you are with experimental music. Ever listen to John Cage and his contemporaries? There's plenty of them trying to take things to the next level... but successfully, that depends on your perspective.
well by using successfull i mean she looks at each peice as an individual, like if she were to use a standard rythm she would end up with a standard song, but this everything was knit picked and placed perfectly with alot of thought, and when i see other stuff that makes it into the mainstream its just a pile if blahhh. as for hearing other artists, thats kinda difficult for one who likes nearly every style of music. like theres just so many i dont even try to keep up with what people like
john cage is an artist. not a composer. he can't write music for shit. he CAN create interesting arrangements of sound that inspire thought outside of the musical realm. i'd prefer listening to green day in my car over john cage. and i HATE green day.
Honestly, I agree with you entirely. I just like hearing how experimentalists like John Cage compare to other non-mainstream acts for other people. I go to a school where right now it seems like most of the curriculum idolizes Cage and his contemporaries. Sometimes I'm intrigued; others I just want to shoot myself, but I just try to wash my ears out with pop music lol.
Sounds like you're in Cornish =). I couldn't get past my hatred for "avant garde" music and honestly felt like stabbing my ears out until I realized something... I dislike that the composers made their WHOLE piece about one new concept, but their concept was interesting. Bringing cutting edge approaches to a song that still has a strong impact on the typical listener can really bring out the point of those techniques.
You'll have to excuse me for my ignorance, but Cornish?
I know what you mean, I've started to think of avant-garde and experimental music as just that: experiments. I know they are fundamentally different styles, but its easier for me to think of such music as long examples of possiblilities.
A mi me gusta con toda su sencillez.Además por muy repetitivo que pueda ser, no deja de dar el simbolismo que la sola melodía quizás no pueda mostrar a algunas personas carentes de imaginación. Y.... si, esto también es un proyecto de guitarra, también hay gente a la que le gustan los chillidos y alaridos, el ruido y los desgarros eléctricos de algunos grupos que dicen tocar Rock, o las simplicidades rítmicas y las letras ñoñas de algunos grupos que dicen tocar Pop. Me quedo con Kaki.
Just how narrow-minded do you have to be to come to this kind of video and compare it to artists from a completely different genre...
Sorry but you sir, are an ignorant elitist-prick. If you don't like it, don't watch it and even if you can't resist your urge to critisize it, at least do it in a constructive and appropriate way.
i think that you don't need to be playing a mixolidian c sharp scale at 568 bpm at a 19/24 time signature to be a good player or for a song to be good. necrophaist and psyopus are really good, but they get boring and they really have no skills in creating melody as well as all the other tech death bands. death metal is lame music for people that really don't know shit about it. so fuck you and the superlocrian scale.
I happen to know for a fact that Psyopus writes 10 second riffs and puts them together to form songs. Whoever said that needs to die in a fire, Kaki King ftw.
Thirdly, as easy as it is to assume everyone who listens to metal is some sort of knuckle-dragging sub-human ingrate, this is not the truth. I do in fact listen to many genres of music, some of it in the "indie/experimental/whatever" genre Kaki King plays in. I will be the first to admit I am far from a scholar of music. That does not mean "metal sucks" any more than "indie sucks".
i honestly in all sincerity think you are wasting your time and msot other people's times by going so depth into something that is only an opinion. you have to remember there is a fine line between a legitimate and honest opinion over an ignorant sort of one, which are what many opinions are. the greatest opinions are what shape a society or a person and have a long lasting affect and promote a great idea or truth. most people on youtube dont get that. on that note, i think shes truly amazing
Secondly, comparing two genres of rock music is not that far fetched. This is in fact rock music or a very similar genre - I believe she calls it Post-rock or something. This is a woman who has been called a "guitar god", a title usually reserved for rock and metal musicians, and honestly comparing her to others is not that far-fetched. She is simply overrated.
What one says is only THEIR oppinion, and while I understand you are just trying to creat a conversation about what you think about her, you should be able to understand that everyone views music in a different way. Some people see Toni Iommi or Miyavi as a guitar god, it all comes down to the majority of what people say about said person's playing. And while you might dislike Kaki King, or the type of music she plays, the positive comments about her will be the only ones noticed.
Finally, I will gladly say that metal songs are not anymore repetitive than the Kaki songs I have heard. Both are written around central riffs or themes that are repeated throughout the songs. This is not a problem, it is a hallmark of rock music since time in memoriam.
The upshot of all of this is that she is not as technical or innovative as everyone claims she is. I prefer other artists with greater skill and innovation, which is a legitimate claim that does not make her less of a musician.
In fact, I'd disagree with you about her being less technical. Especially if you've seen her play something like "Close Your Eyes & You'll Burst Into Flames" live. Comparing her to a thrasher guitarist who plays shredding solos is like comparing a defensive table tennis player and an NBA center: fingering speed is not the only thing that matters with guitar playing.
Innovation is a question of opinion, though I strongly disagree with you there.
Remind me next time I watch this music video to beware of siezures toward the end. It made me dizzy. ^_^

Just how narrow-minded do you have to be to come to this kind of video and compare it to artists from a completely different genre...
Sorry but you sir, are an ignorant elitist-prick. If you don't like it, don't watch it and even if you can't resist your urge to critisize it, at least do it in a constructive and appropriate way.

Idiot. I consider Necrophagist as one of my top 5 bands, and let me say one thing:
Muhammed Suicmez of Necrophagist would laugh at you for your close-minded posts.

i think that you don't need to be playing a mixolidian c sharp scale at 568 bpm at a 19/24 time signature to be a good player or for a song to be good. necrophaist and psyopus are really good, but they get boring and they really have no skills in creating melody as well as all the other tech death bands. death metal is lame music for people that really don't know shit about it. so fuck you and the superlocrian scale.

and that relates to Kaki King how?

someone said that bands like psyopus were real tech band and kaki has no technique and such and that was my answer to that dude.
lucadepu 3 years ago
I happen to know for a fact that Psyopus writes 10 second riffs and puts them together to form songs. Whoever said that needs to die in a fire, Kaki King ftw.

For sure, I understood what you were saying. Just agreeing.

Thirdly, as easy as it is to assume everyone who listens to metal is some sort of knuckle-dragging sub-human ingrate, this is not the truth. I do in fact listen to many genres of music, some of it in the "indie/experimental/whatever" genre Kaki King plays in. I will be the first to admit I am far from a scholar of music. That does not mean "metal sucks" any more than "indie sucks".

i honestly in all sincerity think you are wasting your time and msot other people's times by going so depth into something that is only an opinion. you have to remember there is a fine line between a legitimate and honest opinion over an ignorant sort of one, which are what many opinions are. the greatest opinions are what shape a society or a person and have a long lasting affect and promote a great idea or truth. most people on youtube dont get that. on that note, i think shes truly amazing

Secondly, comparing two genres of rock music is not that far fetched. This is in fact rock music or a very similar genre - I believe she calls it Post-rock or something. This is a woman who has been called a "guitar god", a title usually reserved for rock and metal musicians, and honestly comparing her to others is not that far-fetched. She is simply overrated.

What one says is only THEIR oppinion, and while I understand you are just trying to creat a conversation about what you think about her, you should be able to understand that everyone views music in a different way. Some people see Toni Iommi or Miyavi as a guitar god, it all comes down to the majority of what people say about said person's playing. And while you might dislike Kaki King, or the type of music she plays, the positive comments about her will be the only ones noticed.

you mean that one riff both of those bands share and play in different keys and then calling it different songs?
and you dare call us kids?

Finally, I will gladly say that metal songs are not anymore repetitive than the Kaki songs I have heard. Both are written around central riffs or themes that are repeated throughout the songs. This is not a problem, it is a hallmark of rock music since time in memoriam.
The upshot of all of this is that she is not as technical or innovative as everyone claims she is. I prefer other artists with greater skill and innovation, which is a legitimate claim that does not make her less of a musician.
ClicheDisdain 3 years ago
In fact, I'd disagree with you about her being less technical. Especially if you've seen her play something like "Close Your Eyes & You'll Burst Into Flames" live. Comparing her to a thrasher guitarist who plays shredding solos is like comparing a defensive table tennis player and an NBA center: fingering speed is not the only thing that matters with guitar playing.
Innovation is a question of opinion, though I strongly disagree with you there.
Thanks for conducting the critique with respect.

You talk too much.
Just listen to the music. It doesn't always have to be about how goddamn well it was composed or how "technical" it is.
