Hey subby:

I'm confused by the headline.

Craig Kilborn is such a talented frontman!

How on Earth is TCV a hipster douchebag band?

I wish I was as smug as subby.

/FREE BIRD!!

Subby heard the album, realized how awesome it is and how huge it's going to be, and just wanted to be the first one to not like this band.

It's his way of saying "boobies" in the coming-soon internet-wide TCV hate thread

Good work, subby!

Music thread? Instagreen
Asinine faux-edgy comment? Lots of replies

I guess that makes me the guy on the left

Subby likes Them Choking Chickens better.

WTF does this have to do with douchebag hipsters?

I think the term "douchebag hipster" needs to be standardized.

Let's see everybody's definitions

Didn't the Foo Fighters release a single not too long ago?

PerfectlyCromulent: Hey subby:

Aw, subby fails at pulling Fark cliches out of a hat.

Another The English Major troll headline? Got bored with Kings of Leon?

Subby is clueless.

Them Crooked Vultures planning a second album. This news will delight hipster douchebags everywhere and make everyone nostalgiac for the Foo Fighters Kyuss

FTFY

If loving the shiat out of TCV makes me a hipster douchebag, sign me up for my skinny jeans, stupid tee with 90s reference on it, and Coldplay Mac sleeve.

TCV is amazing. Saw them live on Tuesday at the Wiltern in LA and almost died from the musical joygasms penetrating my vag.

Suck it, subby.

hot like someone who is NOT the Wentzbag

"Hipster" gets used often in music headlines on Fark and the word is always used wrong.

Wow, I just got TCVs album yesterday and already they're hipster douchebag status. Must be because of my iMac or something. Sorry folks. :(

Oh great, YOUR the asshole who ruined it for everyone.

/Love you.

I haven't heard the album yet, but you know what? If the album is even HALF as farking good as the few seconds of this riff, it will be worth the purchase:

I shall not today attempt further to define the kinds of material I understand to be embraced within that shorthand description ["hipster-douchebag"]; and perhaps I could never succeed in intelligibly doing so. But I know it when I see it, and the album involved in this case is not that.

Get Behind me Doctor!: Another The English Major troll headline? Got bored with Kings of Leon?

No. I got a free copy of the album. I've listened to it. It's very meh, in my opinion.
And do you people just look up my profile to see if it's my responsibility? 'Cause if so...that's pretty freakin' hilarious.

Just bought the cd. It rules.

never odd or even: "Hipster" gets used often in music headlines on Fark and the word is always used wrong.

On Fark, "hipster" means someone who listens to music other than Rush, Led Zeppelin, or some generic sounding Norwegian metal band with an illegible logo.

I'm with subby. This is pretty dull, by-the-numbers music. `Par for the course for these guys, though.

I can't fault them for putting out a bland record, because it's not like any of them have much going for them individually, either. Slap a bunch of dull, uncreative, aging rockers into a studio, and you get dull, uncreative, aging rock.

Letting Dave Grohl anywhere near musical instruments, studios, or microphones inevitably leads to mundane crap, though. He was the weakest link in Nirvana, and that's saying a lot, since Nirvana sucked ass.

Im kinda looking forward to the retrospective on the music of the past decade, so we can sift out the garbage that came out and actually look back on the last 10 years for the good music it had.

If anything the sludge that passed for mainstream rock pushed people to discover smaller bands.

TCV is defiantly a last second contender for rock album of the decade, IMHO (I say contender, as It hasnt had the time to really sink in yet...) I mean... for the most part the last 9 years have been a sort of neo 80s filled with forgettable crap. (with some obvious exceptions.)

So I herby request early submissions for the Best Rock album of the decade with no number in the ten posion to make it easily identifiable.

My submissions:

White Stripes: Elephant
Them Crooked Vultures: Them Crooked Vultures
Green Day: American Idiot (I prefered 21st century breakdown, but its hard to argue the influence of american idiot)

2/10 too obvious.....

heyspider: Craig KilbornEric Stoltz is such a talented frontman!

Works either way.

Who the shiat would be nostalgic for the Foo Fighters? Dave Grohl's one of the best rock drummers of all time, but he's best enjoyed behind a kit.

I have not heard the album yet, but I havn't heard anything bad about it yet. I can't see how they can be hipster-douches though when John Paul Jones is in it.

Subby is pure fail. TCV is phenomenal, and whoever it was that said it was "by the numbers" can go back and listen to his "godspeed you black emperor" album's while jerking off to episodes of FRINGE.

laserhan: My submissions:

I'll throw one in for Songs for the Deaf.

/GYBE are awesome.

I think I've figured out why I've had a total of one greenlight in the music tab in the 6 or so years I've been a Farker.

I don't submit retarded, trollish headlines just to get a greenlight.

I've tried to comprehend why someone would choose to be a troll, but I can't wrap my head around why someone would aspire to represent themselves as a dumbass.

I listened to most of the cd and was completely disappointed. i love queens of the stone age, i love dave grohl but this cd just fell flat, to me. maybe it's the drums being sort of generic along with the riffs. elsewise it possibly has a 70s feel and I'm not at all a fan of 70s rock...

so long as qotsa puts out a new cd at some point.

Subby: Hipsters don't listen to popular/mainstream music. The very definition of a hipster is someone who only listens to music you've never heard of. Oh, and they dress like Wentzbag and drink PBR.

TCV's first album is no masterpiece, it's a bit uneven, a bit homogenous, but there's some real winners: No One Loves Me, New Fang, Elephants (best groove on the album, robot rock reggae or some shiat, I dunno, it's unique and it swings like hell), Scumbag Blues, Warsaw (farking badass second half), Daffodils.

Also, live, JPJ and Grohl bring the thunder like nobody since JPJ and Bonzo.

This. SFTD will probably forever remain Josh Homme's masterpiece.

Go suck a syphilitic cock, submitter. You can especially do that because the band sounds more like a blend between QotSA and Led Zep, not anything like Foo Fighters.

Bring it on, the first one rocks.

They had the whole album on youtube if anyone wants to sample it.

jock rock.

I like the new album, but check this out:

Them Crooked Vultures - New Fang

Kiss - I Love It Loud

Yeah, um, that might be a problem for Them Crooked Vultures...

theurge14: I like the new album, but check this out:

Holy crap.

theurge14: Yeah, um, that might be a problem for Them Crooked Vultures...

No, it's not a problem. The melody does not remain identical for 11 notes.

So John Paul Jones fans are hipster douchebags? As are Foo Fighter fans? Do you even know what a "hipster" is?

The English Major is the worst submitter. Why are you constantly submitting music-related headlines if you're so farking oblivious about music? And you're not even trying to troll.

Your headlines stand out like a sore, crusty thumb.

GibbyTheMole: I've tried to comprehend why someone would choose to be a troll, but I can't wrap my head around why someone would aspire to represent themselves as a dumbass.

It's quite amazing, isn't it? Fark is one of the only websites I've ever seen where some people are proud about knowing dick-all about music.

I had very high hopes for this band... But after buying the album and giving it a few listens I am not too impressed. I like a few of the songs quite a bit, but for the most part the album is just filler in my opinion.

Songs for the Deaf is fantastic.

But my nod goes to either 10,000 Days or Lateralus by Tool
