Who do you guys think you are, thinking you deserve to listen to something more than anybody else >_> Seriously, that's unadulterated hipsterdom right there.

Amazon.com gave me this band as a recommended listen. Amazon, this is the best recommendation you've ever given me. Thank you. Now, if only you could start sending my packages on time.

@GlenMuse795 Also, people don't listen to this kind of music, not because they are not worthy of it, or because they are "plebes"... it is because they want to fit in the society, and sadly one of the ways to do that is to listen the music that particular group listen... if they see someone in that group actually listening to something else they would be like "ugh, turn that off, put some LMFAO!". So actually this is the fault of big corporations like MTV, they ruin people's ears.

@GlenMuse795 I think everyone has the right to hear anything if they like it, it is a good thing because they give the band recognition (and that recognition gives the band another reason to continue making good music). When I really like a band I try to show it to my friends and help the band a little... but I only wish some people would get their heads out of their asses and start listening to music that is not in the "TOP 40s"...

i'm no 'hipster' and i like this music! suck it. my ipod has no restrictions. its has 'good music' and 'bad music'. because it's my personal taste.

[Mukulele95]

@GlenMuse795 i agree with you completely, and truthfully i am a hipster myself haha :)

[GlenMuse795]

@Mukulele95 Recognition and mainstream popularity are completely different things. I hope they get lots of positive attention for all of the absolutely amazing music they make, I'm just saying that the general public and their terrible taste is hardly worthy of hearing such a fantastic act. (;

[Mukulele95]

@GlenMuse795 what would you prefer, a great band getting recognition? or hipsters snickering amongst themselves because they're the keepers of all good music?

[GlenMuse795]

@Tomfish3000 It might be, yes, but the plebes don't deserve this kind of perfection.

[SwimWhenItHurts]

my god, this is so flawless.

[Magzodius]

Nearly fell asleep to this. Peter Silberman's voice is beautiful.

@blueballsredhair I think that they just mean that their music is very deep and there are many layers to it, and that not everyone comprehends all of them.
