Let's discuss /mu/, or the 4chan music board, (if you're a pleb that didn't know that already.)

I'm curious, are there any other visitors to /mu/ on this wiki? If so, get in here and let's call each other plebs.

All I know about /mu/ is to stay away from it.

I don't get them. When music is so personal, and I like not what you like but what I like, it is nearly impossible to have a thread.

Besides, music is not even visual.

[up] Album covers.

I dislike the rampant prissy self-righteousness but they can choose some really good stuff now and then. It's worth a browse every few months, but certainly not a regular residence.

Agreed.

Tried making a Mew thread once, and it went nowhere.

[up][up][up]It sort of forfeits the 'image board' thing. It's more just about anonymous music discussion. Oftentimes images are used to start the discussion up though. (last.fm collages .etc.)

I really don't find it that bad... Of course there are a lot of morons, but there are morons in every online community. You've just gotta ignore the idiotic posts, then you can find a lot of interesting discussion.

I mean, they're half the reason that people know about Have A Nice Life, and Wire's 154 and Bugskull's Phantasies and Senseitions are on one of their "patrician essentials" lists, so I can't fault them when it comes to collectively knowing their shit. They can just be kind of snide about it. But that's 4chan for you.

[up]Yeah, it's good that practically everyone on there will at least know of the 'entry-level' bands in every genre, whether or not it's mainstream. That leads people to believe that anything they haven't heard of doesn't exist or is completely insignificant though, but as you said, that's 4chan for you.

So, if I said that I like some Wire, I would be accepted, but, if I then said I liked ABBA's The Visitors or some Bee Gees' Disco tunes, I would probably be called 'peasant' or something like that, right?

[up]Yeah, probably. They generally really get taken by this weird groupthink, where personal attacks, or attacks on the fandom of a band are taken as valid criticisms of the music.
