    what the hell?

    i haven't used that site in over a year. i thought you'd said that you were going to trash it.

    To be fair, swordfights is 15. I listened to some of those bands when I was 15. 15 year olds have an obligation to society to have shitty taste in music.

    wiggin doesnt really have an excuse

    I just really can't listen to music that is so fucking whiny anymore.

    Hey hey whoa whoa

    Don't be lumping me in with him since I think we listen to 2 of the same bands, total

    Also because there are obviously a few other people who share some of my tastes!

    Now hold on just a damn minute that is just a part of what I listen to.

    My musical tastes are incredibly broad, I just bought the TBS songs for Rock Band which is why I brought them up.

    If you think that's all I listen to, Sufjan, Tom Waits, Phoenix, The Mountain Goats, And Architecture in Helsinki would like to have a few words with you.

    Yes those are very good bands and I enjoy them. Just saying you also enjoy some terrible music, but so do most people so whatevs. I mean I liked both good and bad bands when I was 15 but mostly bad.

    Also wiggin I was mostly kidding there. I do think ska is good times (sometimes). Just we differ on some bands I can't think of right now and you just get so excited talking about how rockin various shows you go to are that uh... i dunno. was joshin

    Is this shit really licensed? It looks dubious to me.

    I really just get excited about shows because at this point I know most of the bands that play them. Like, I've hung out with them after the shows and shot the shit and helped them find a place to crash for the night and such

    That doesn't mean it's not shitty, or that they shouldn't be informed of the fact.

    It looks like you're paying for pirated music from that Russian website. I'd steer clear of that shit.

    Wikipedia is telling me that it bleeds you for money by having minimum transaction amounts of $20 each time. So while you can get cheap music, you have to get a lot of it in bulk.

    Edit: Seems they changed it to $30.

    I like to support artists especially given that most of the bands I listen to are on little tiny buttfuck labels, but I'm just too goddamn poor most of the time

    I always try to buy something at a local show though, because that's cash money that's helping a band buy dinner tonight

    If you're torrenting without any kind of virus protection you're asking for it so that's a non-issue.
