@BridgewatersFinest I want to repeat I'm not seeing you as an asshole from not liking this, more for implying everyone liking this is stupid. AFAIK you made 3-4 arguments, not 6-7, and i went against at least most. I think you're mistaking prog with something else, because prog's shreddy during most of the song, while this doesn't have a lead. I must agree you can't point that much with so few lines, but perhaps daron only saw the lyrics as a minor part of this album... That's it.

@blobliblo35 I've gotta say, I'm pretty well done with this. I've given my reasons, I apologize if they're not to your satisfaction. Feel free to reply which I know you will, and that's cool, but that's likely the last you'll hear from me on it until someone else strolls along to tell me I'm an asshole for not liking Daron's coiled-up turds. But I've appreciated that you've come around and tried to bring some intellectualism into it towards the end. It was a wild ride.

@blobliblo35 You're pinpointing on ONE of no less than, what, six or seven reasons I've given why these lyrics are shit, and attempting to refute JUST that one. Yes, lyrics are only one of any number of things that CAN determine an album's/artist's success. My point is, had Daron not been a lazy songwriter and put more effort into his lyrics, then PERHAPS the album would have sold more than 80,000 copies. Is that better?

@blobliblo35 Scars has prog and avant-garde influences which are evident in their music, but again, arguing genre semantics is tiresome and pointless, because anyone who can string a few sentences together can pretty much argue that any given artist has any given influence.
-
@blobliblo35 I firmly believe you can only say so much in a song with four, five lines, and it doesn't matter how many times you repeat them, you're just saying the same shit over and over again, and that shouldn't cut it from a songwriting standpoint.

@BridgewatersFinest As i said, a cause consequences relationship of bad sales because of lyrics when there is many factors involved in the succes of an album isn't founded. Btw, if you need figure sales to show me lyrics are good or bad, then you're lacking comprehension of what make lyrics good.
There's a huge difference between prog and this, if you know both genres, just wanted to point out. And you still failed to show how minimalistic lyrics are bad and how they are uninspired

@BridgewatersFinest You're arguing against me not attacking the problem directly while you're saying things like "how cute, school's cancelled today? how ironic.
Im defending scars, but i'm not saying they're objectively awesome ethier. That would be countering a stupid saying with an equally stupid, but reversed one, like saying racism against black is shit, because it's the whites who are retarded.

@BridgewatersFinest typo: Repetition isn't necessarly something lazy*
I said "refined" is subjective because of its positive connotation, but let's take the neutral word "complex" instead, since it's near and objective.
It happens not all people care about the number of lines. Musically, this album is very simple, with sometimes like 4-5 different riffs by song. That doesn't stop the music to be (not for everyone, but at least for me) pretty nice. The lyrics just follow the same style.
the lyrics are so deep *stonerface*
