obscenity aside, a comment like that is usually the best way for an
artist to turn me off from their music. 'we just twiddled the knobs'.
well then, i suppose it's sheer luck your music sounds good? should i
even expect more than half of your songs to be listenable?
as for the obscenity ~ i personally don't take offence. i take offense
at volume, not content. swear all you want, but keep it quiet ~ or
funny (it's usually easier to keep it quiet.)
also, i think the example you're pointing out has more of a problem with
how few words, rather than _which_ words, the guy uses. if you can
replace every verb in your vocabulary with 'to fuck', then there's
probably a problem, yes. but let's not shun four-letter words. they're
people too.
