I Fight Dragons is pretty terrible. However I don't really feel like wasting time expressing my hatred and in depth opinion... So I'll just take 1 min and focus. Concentrate and focus all of my negative energy towards them... silently...  Ok done, later guys heart I feel better too!

Was this directed at me? If so, I think you misunderstood. There's a big difference between acceptance and indifference.

I don't like the music and I could care less about its socio-cultural implications. The fact that it's probably going to get more popular than Xik or Lazerbeat will ever be makes me sad but I'm more disappointed in listeners and their pre-conditioning than I am in this band. Anyway, spreading bad vibes is kind of a waste of energy fellas.

I'm indifferent either way, I don't hate their music, but I don't love it either.

Then again its about 400bpm too slow and doesn't have any distorted amens in it.

Completely putting aside how cool the band members may or may not be for a moment-- I find it a bit strange that lots of people into chiptunes insist that it's an instrument, not a genre, and that more bands should treat it that way, etc... and yet when a group like IFD comes along, they get tossed aside and have assessments like "they are not good" thrown at them like it's some sort of objective, conclusive fact.

I've only heard a few songs but I dig what I hear. I think it's pretty good music, whatever you wanna call it. Oh well. *Shrug*

Yeah kinda like how we all have beef with anamanguchi right?

other things it can be used alongside as instruments: analog synths, bent gear, violin, banjo, ukelele, washboard, etc
seriously though, i dont think its hypocritical at all to dislike a band that uses chip with other instruments just because you want more people to treat chip more as an instrument instead of a genre..that thought doesnt even really say that it couldnt still be the only instrument, but more just asking for recognition that chip stuff isnt only one genre of music, but a variety of genres done on similar instruments
its not the same thing at all, though i admit both involve the words "chip" and "instrument"
