Ya, you should probably take a nap. Clear your mind. Come back unrustled.

Listening to Grammy winning, Billboard top 10 bands is trying too hard?

What a silly thread. This obsessions with hipsters is getting quite odd.

For me right now my favorites would be:


Tame Impala
Tycho
Little Dragon

People that try to hard listen too:

Interpol
Muse
Modest Mouse

The black keys suck now. They play the same set over and over at every show.

Arcade Fire is awesome though.

I obviously have a different definition of hipster than this board

Something hipster would be like liking the new Savages album or Mikal Cronin or Disclosure or something like that

All of the bands in this thread are way, way too well known to be "hipster" (which is a stupid term that has been totally overused and misused into meaning basically nothing anymore)

The thing I find funny is that I imagine one of the main reasons people dislike hipsters is because of their condescending nature. And yet, I can’t think of much that is more condescending than saying “you can’t really enjoy that band, they suck. You just like them to appear cool. You are trying too hard.”

Maybe I don't know what a hipster is, after all.

Unofficially. The Dead brain trust assented to and endorsed the sample by AC.

I'm confused, I just listened to the song and I don't hear anything resembling Unbroken Chain.

I'll help you out. As you can see the doc and jester are still in the emo/elementary "meh" phase.

I always dig the vintage chicks.

They probably don't care for me much in my khaki shorts and polo t's though.

I was once told I was wearing "the uniform" by what I thought were hipsters.
