I seriously doubt this is on "hipsters'" radars. Kind of getting pathetic how that word is a go-to when you want to insult some form of music even if it doesn't make sense in the context.


It makes absolute total sense when a band is exaggerating a musical genre to be sarcastic, ironic, or so cheesy the awfulness of the material becomes comedy.

Fuck this band. They have the same staying power as Weird Al. Funny for a minute, then tedious and annoying.

The worst part is, they're great musicians that could be putting out great, classy hard rock albums. Instead they're doing this childish bullshit that wasn't funny when I was in high school. It's just sad, in my opinion.

Pffft!


Amen. This is hipster bullshit.
Umm this is nothing like Wolves in the Throne Room, sir :rolleyes:

I am perplexed how a band like Steel Panther gains any traction and somehow maintains a modicum of popularity.

The last bit was a general statement about using the word hipster. Also, people can be sarcastic/ironic without being "hipsters" or appealing to those who would be labeled as "hipsters".
