I was actually trolling, man. I thought I made it pretty obvious that I was being a smartass.

I'd argue the point about Deafheaven. The three hipsters I know love them. Also, I explained why in Brad's thread a week ago:

But with that aside, who said there was a strict definition of what music a hipster should like? To my knowledge, a hipster is someone who is in tune with what is popular in the underground (ie: hip), so there's no real binding to a certain genre.

And I can't believe you think Black Sabbath is hipster That's seriously one of the most idiotic things I've ever heard. Go learn a thing or two about metal, man. Jesuschrist.

I witnessed hipsters running to their mommies during Deafheaven, so I have to agree with him there .

I was aware how much this writer liked the album, so I was going to be surprised if it wasn't #1.

Yeah, it's dope though.
