I got 1 point for the last one, because I am not particularly fond of Beyonce or Queen. Strange quiz, like being asked ‘what’s your favourite food, watercress or butter?’
Genuine music snob pours scorn on fellow genuine music snob for pouring scorn on music snobs for pouring scorn on questionnaire about musical snobbery.
All my CDs are in the wrong cases, there’s a spider’s corpse in the cassette machine and rat’s footprints in the dust on my turntable cover – I’m a music slob!
I thought it was a witty reference to that period when band logos were defiantly capital-free: suede, blur etc. Around that time we had a company in Ireland called Eircom that used lower case and the newspapers dutifully printed their name as such: “eircom today announced..” Seeing sentences begin with an itty bitty “e” used to drive me f***in’ crazy..

zero here too
Wow, a great day’s work by somebody there. Makes me proud to pay the license fee.
I bet the AW could come up with ten much better questions than those.
1 … hands in Afterword card and shuffles off.
There’s a card??
Why didn’t I get a card?
I want a card.
I WANT A CARD.
In other news: why does every OP now have two of those thumbs up thingies?
Been at the Baileys already?
I wish.
Approved by Sir Paul McCartney?
Twice.
We’ve gone from mono to stereo. Don’t tell Tiggs…

4 points
Silly though who has a reel to reel and 30s tannoy speakers I do however have 2 Hi fi cassette players in working order
Crap questions. Fav Radiohead album?
The one after the singer quits.
1 point – I was honest enough to go with my hunch on genres.
3 points. Silly questions.
Me too.
I feel like I’ve just been lured in a click bait Facebook page, only without the adverts to justify it’s existence. Anyway, 3 from here.
3 here too. Awful questions. Radiohead? Oasis?
Yes and “pop kids” want to watch Top of the Pops, because they know what it is and everything.
4. Always a delight to see the BBC hosing our money up against the wall.
1, but lets be honest, it was a crap quiz/survey. (& my favourite singles are PL/SFF & Common people).
Three here too.
Best Radiohead? There isn’t one.
Best Oasis? Ditto.
Remember: duck and cover.
It’s an impossible quiz.
The question about preferred music format is not applicable and the “Hip Hop is” question doesn’t have a “shit” option
Even Public Enemy, JC? 😉
I was being facetious of course. There are a few genuinely great moments in the genre I suppose. Baby Got Back, for instance is right up there
Right down there you mean.
Hur
Does Nightflight to Venus count?
Zappa’s Dinah Moe Humm probably invented rap in 1973.
Or it could have been Donovan’s Atlantis
This whole thread could be a Daily Mash story in the making, ‘Genuine Music Snobs Pour Scorn on ‘How much of a Music Snob are You?’ Quiz’.
I am not a snob. And anyway, scorn should be drizzled, not poured.
Er, and your point is? 😂
Genuine music snob pours scorn on fellow genuine music snob for pouring scorn on music snobs for pouring scorn on questionnaire about musical snobbery.
This could go on and on.
Arthur, you’re too clever by half 😊
1 – record in space. Not so much as music snob as a former physicist.
Was the quiz supposed to be edgy, knowingly silly and utterly shite?
Hi guys. You realise the quiz wasn’t intended to be serious, right?
2/10. Now if there had been alternatives that actually reflect my preferences on half the questions…
nil
1/10 – which means I’m eclectic, open-minded and carefree.
Whereas In fact I am narrow-minded, inflexible and paranoid.
Stupid quiz.

“Oh dear, you’ll never cut it as a true music snob”
Yes I will cut it and I frequently do.
Glastonbury is an over-commercialised heap of nonsense, and records should ALWAYS be filed alphabetically and by release date – there is no other way.
All my CDs are in the wrong cases, there’s a spider’s corpse in the cassette machine and rat’s footprints in the dust on my turntable cover – I’m a music slob!
2. ???
I think it was meant as a joke.
Seriously. But I rather like the idea of a genre Lowercase….
sorry lowercase
I thought it was a witty reference to that period when band logos were defiantly capital-free: suede, blur etc. Around that time we had a company in Ireland called Eircom that used lower case and the newspapers dutifully printed their name as such: “eircom today announced..” Seeing sentences begin with an itty bitty “e” used to drive me f***in’ crazy..
I am too much of a music snob to even comment on a thread entitled ‘How Much of a Music Snob Are You’.
I only scored 4, yet I am a fully-paid-up pain in the arse.
