"a web series which presents artists performing out of focus, to "bring the attention to the music itself, not so much in the artist behind it."

That's the silliest goddamn thing I've ever heard. Why not just post audio?

lukabratzi (February 26, 2013)

haha yeah that is one of the dumbest things I've seen on the internet and it kind of reeks of pretension

davebrave4 (February 26, 2013)

Ugh...I can smell the pretension from here.

oldflings (February 26, 2013)

This is the most silly idea.

bastard_squad (February 26, 2013)

Did you ever see Milemarker live? They on occasion played behind a screen playing movie clips. You couldn't see the band

wentz_equals_death (February 26, 2013)

to further the sense of pretensiousness but also to hopefully counter your argument, why paint pictures when you can just take a photograph? i think it's a cool enough idea compared to the rest of the internet's complete waste of humanity

imadeanaccountjustforthis (February 26, 2013)

I'm not sure I understand your counter argument, but it seems like this is more along the lines of...I dunno. Thinking really hard about painting a picture instead of actually painting so that you can appreciate how...I don't know.
I think the general point, and it's a valid one, is that it's silly to not just record a live take of a song if you want the focus to ACTUALLY just be on the music.

shark-e (February 26, 2013)

They probably came up with the idea after recording the first show and seeing that they had accidentally set the focus to manual.

kentspaz (February 26, 2013)

This was the most annoying thing to watch.

wentz_equals_death (February 26, 2013)

yeah, while i think idea's cool (see above) the execution was a little disappointing. it seems poorly shot rather than artfully shot
