Jan Backing Track Posted June 9, 2022 Report Share Posted June 9, 2022 7 minutes ago, FAPLORD said: So, then I’ll use your same defense against you for your take on Cali and Nine. You’re taking them too seriously! How can you argue against those albums because of their ages, but at the same time defending MGK not even playing on his own records. Like I said, you’re a very confused individual that constantly makes conflicting statement with your own self. Even if he did write and record the songs himself (he didn’t)…the music still sucks. I prefer to listen to music that was made for the music…not to appeal to a certain group of people…he changed his look to change his sound, it’s generic , copy cat talentless bullshit. Go ahead and convince yourself otherwise while at the same time you slam albums that are better If the music still sucks regardless why are you wanting your time talking about him non stop? Step outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do a shred of research and you can actually watch him record guitar for some of the songs in the studio. You can also watch him play his songs live. He can play the guitar, I know that must bs shocking to you as a Tom DeLonge fan lol He can play guitar, absolutely. I don’t care much for his music but I have no doubt he actually recorded and plays it live, he isn’t devoid of talent. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he didn’t record most of the parts on his album and I’ll just let Steve Terreberry assess the live guitar playing for me 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sooner you accept and realize this, maybe the sooner you’ll start listening to better music. And again, I’m not hating on him. I’m hating on the notion that he did something ground breaking, or reviving, he didn’t. The notion that Cali/Nine sucks but MGK’s record is amazing is just a silly shit take lol I see no reason why he can’t or doesn’t record his own guitar tracking. None of it is particularly technical or challenging. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good, glad to see it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hit me up Jans ex Posted June 9, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2022 Some of you have never looked at the album credits for his albums and it shows. The amount of songwriters and studio musicians make NINE appear to have been written and recorded by 3 people. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it’s about the kill switch, then the claim is wrong about the direction of the kill switch in the guitar. Down engages the pickup, up shuts it off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My whole point is that it is silly to say MGK made an amazing record, ignoring literally everything about MGK including his age and tailored image…while at the same time knocking Cali and Nine. It’s choosing to ignore the same things about MGK that are being used to knock on blink. That’s why I said Jan is confused, but we already knew that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you just enjoy the image of a 31 year old pedophile wearing pink and making music for middle schoolers?

He’s a performer, he isn’t going to play the same way a band’s guitarist is going to play. That doesn’t mean he can’t or didn’t track guitars. Even if he didn’t track all the guitars, that doesn’t mean anything. I’ve recorded shit where I didn’t track every single guitar bit. That doesn’t make me less the guitarist or songwriter. I was either having an off day or wasn’t getting the sound I was going for whether that be equipment or technical skill. That’s the point of the studio, to produce the best sound available for the song. Why wouldn’t you use the tools available? Look, I’m with you, other music sucks but this isn’t the hill you should die on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And other guitarists have credit on those same songs and obviously the other ones too. I’m just sick of people giving him more credit than he deserves, I’m not hating on MGK himself. Imagine if Skiba only played guitar on 5 songs from an album and what these same MGK praising people would be saying to crucify him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just an odd stance for you to take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
