Don't forget biased and hypocritical. They once ran an article about music snobbery and how everyone has different definitions of good and bad and that no one has any right to tell you what you should/shouldn't listen to, and IN THE SAME DAMN PARAGRAPH said "oh by the way, [band I can't remember] are shit, and you're an idiot for thinking otherwise" or words to that effect.
I used to like Cracked but they jumped the shark a long time ago. Their articles used to be informative and humorous, but now they just come across as smug, written by people that think possessing all this useless information makes their completely irrelevant opinions better than everyone else's. _________________

Way to miss the point of the article. Props. _________________

I wracked my brain trying to figure out how Cracked is defining "multi-member band" to make this claim. Maroon 5, Coldplay and Plain White T's have all had No.1 singles between 2001 and 2012. |
Good point, I didn't think of that. Maybe there is a genre qualifier they left out? "First multi-member non-pop band"? I wouldn't describe fun. as pop at all. Or maybe it's just poor writing, maybe "one of the only multi-member bands" is what should have been written. Who knows.
But my point stands, they were a surprise as a pop hit and even though I've grown tired of We Are Young, I hope it sells well in Rock Band and they can do something as exciting as Aim and Ignite in the future. |
Totally. I don't want to take anything away from fun., they're rad. _________________

Yeah, probably. Optimistic me wanted another explanation, since I find Cracked funny/entertaining. :P But I guess I need to come to terms with their wrongness most of the time.
John Cheese is still the best though. _________________
