Go listen to Skullgrid
What is it and can I have a link?
here you go
https://beholdthearctopus.bandcamp.com/album/skullgrid
It’s an album by the prog-metal band “Behold the Arctopus”
And listening to it (or more realistically, reading the lyrics) will convince me of what exactly?
No idea. The guy who suggested you listen to it, seems to think it’s the best album ever, tho- considering he named himself after it.
So I will learn about this user at least, but I’m struggling to find the motivation.
Lol I wouldn’t bother. Music lyrics rarely translate to real-world action or beliefs. So even if the music says something profound (it doesn’t) it’s just there to sound artistic, or go with the theme of the music. It’s extremely performative.
Good news! It’s instrumental.
Well, you were very interested in doing an ad homonim attack on my perception of art, and there are challenging sections in the album skullgrid. Have a listen and see what your perspective on art is like and let me know if you’re a deaf man that says “notes don’t matter”
If you need to refer to an album to make your argument, you don’t have an argument.
And it’s not an ad hominem to notice you’re saying you can’t distinguish between art and slop, it’s a restatement of what you’ve said.
If I need to defend myself with evidence against baseless ad homonim attacks, I don’t have an argument?
Again, without referring to real world things like intricate albums or shitty paintings made by humans that are overrated, we can’t discuss things like that, now can we?
