Neight Shayde 7,925 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 The Black Keys’ Patrick Carney Was Rude About Lady Gaga’s “Perfect Illusion,” Which Is a Fine Song It was the layered electric guitar lead that really got his blood boiling. “I hate guitars that sound like that. I’m lost because the guitar at the top of it sounds so shitty,” Carney said. “It’s like ‘Eye of the Tiger,’ but not even nearly as good as that. It sounds like Hulk Hogan is playing the ****ing guitar.” First of all, this seems an ill-conceived argument: Though the brittle, distorted sound of Parker’s rhythm guitar does recall Hogan’s one-time entrance theme, his layered leads “at the top” have a triumphant, richly melodic quality that is absent from the 1982 hit. If Carney is listening to Gaga’s club music and hears sub-Survivor cock-rock, he’s missing the forest for the trees. It seems like perhaps, at the end of the clip, he begins to realize he’s being kind of an idiot, claiming Gaga’s single is “growing on him.” Still, there’s an aura of snark: “That’s the thing about music: The more you hear something, the more you like it. That’s why payola worked,” he followed up. But even if one doesn’t really like Gaga’s song, it’s at least a representation of an artist pushing into new realms and working outside of their comfort zone—something the Black Keys have seemed, throughout their career, to be largely disinterested in. (Getting Danger Mouse to make your albums sound cleaner doesn’t count). Later to Turn Blue; persevere, Gaga. SOURCE Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JusKeepBreathin 19,311 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 What's with all these men hating on Gaga? It like the 80's when rock musicians hated on Madonna. It's almost ridiculous and commical, the amount of testosterone fueled hate.

display name 4,360 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I'm not sure if I fully agree with his assessment of payola tho. Some songs you get sick of the more you hear em, and there are some songs you might just never like. It's okay to dislike PI, just dont come across as a rude bitch in expressing your dislike Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
