Musical trends I was happy to see die/start to die in the 2011

1. Hilarious ironic wink wink tamborine playing lead singers in indie bands

2. The use of leather fringe as stagewear (may be related to above)

3. you liked djent

3. How about we all sing the chorus together but across the room from the microphone because that will sound really cool?

4. Female folk singers trying to imitate what zooey deschannel sounds like when she sings about how great cotton is.

how do you play a tambourine ironically

"damn I love this band, the singer really knows how to make a tambourine smirk"

situational irony is when actions taken achieve the opposite result. maybe ironic tambo shakers try to look cool and wind up looking like assholes

how is it possible that i can not find even one usable image of the naked dude from les savy fav with a tamborine in his hand

dunno, but i feel we shd be grateful for that

^^^

actually while i am at it

5. lead singers stripping down to their underwear (exceptions made for david yow because you cant teach an old dog etc and eugene from oxbow because he does it to scare the hell out of people)

I don't know if "taking off your clothes" is actually a MUSICAL trend, unless you happen to be wearing tambourines

lol can you tell I'm basically just counting minutes until I can duck out of work early

Feel like preciousness was kind of giving way to burnout-ness in 2011, t/f?

Hahaha I swear I had not seen this image when composing my first two choices here

I was confused at first and thought those were stick-tambourines

i did not know the dog-car from dumb and dumber was a ~look~

6. screamo/rap hybridization

i think dude from les savy fav should be excused from any of these rules
