Stop Hating Music

Excellent points. I agree in full. I'm one of the many people that are at this site because of DP, & I'm tired of the people trash talking Zwan & Corgan. As you said, don't listen to it if you don't like it. But don't say it sucks.
Actually, I've liked a lot of music over the years that technically "sucks", but it does (or did) something for me. The individualism of personal taste that makes us all unique should be cherished, not bashed.
The original post from the "cock-eating" guy was brash and not very well thought out, but I understand his main point. Behind his one-upping bravado, he rightly states that people have been wrongfully bashing Corgan & SP. So what if his music doesn't suit your style. He is still an amazingly talented musician who was fortunate enough to assemble one of the most stunningly talented bands that I can think of. Their potential is limitless, although I don't think it will be as commercially embraced as SP.
Personally, I think that Pajo is one of the best & most influential musicians of this era. Yet I don't feel the need to look down on Corgan because his music is not as cerebral as Dave's. It's just different. To each his own. Yada yada yada...
Don't hate Billy because he's a star. Don't hate Pajo because he's somewhat obscure.
In the words of the immortal Stan Lee, "'Nuff said".
