QUALITY isn't objective. The complexity and technicality however is completely different.
if you like something, it doesn't mean its better
it just means you like it better, but objectively speaking you can't make a comparison there

Technical ability, compositional ability, etc a band can be better at that ... but I don't honestly think that just because a band is better in those fields that they are an objectively better band.

Are you talking to me? The drum sample part is not supposed to be good. It's just there for me to have a beat to play over, and the fake bass part is there to provide a harmonic backbone so that the solo makes sense.

We used to have Open Mic Night every month when I was in High School, and at the last one we had before I graduated, this guy in my class got up on stage with his guitar and sang a version of that, which went "New Hope-Solebury aint nothing to crunk with". It was stupid, but funny. He was also really good at the guitar... Not anymore, though, seeing as he's dead now.
By the way:
19 years old + .16 BAC + Weed + 80mph in a 40mph zone + 2:00 AM + Dangerous, windy road + Tree - Seat Belt = Bad news.
When the fuck is Krig on? I added his darth lardo name to my MSN and his urlin name to my AIM and I've yet to see him on either.

so whats the objective measure of 'quality'?
art is a communicative medium, how the fuck do you evaluate it without taking into account the attitudes of the observer towards it? how the fuck is the subjective experience of art separable from its objective essence?
oh that's right IT ISNT you fucking dumbfuck
edit: even if you feel that art can possess a goal not necessarily synergistic with its role as communicator with individuals, you'd have a hard time demonstrating that this is objective fact and not your own prescribed reasoning.
i don't get you people. is it really so hard to deal with the fact that your taste in music isn't objectively fucking superior to anyone else's? it's pretty easy to deal with, just take my approach. while i can't objectively demonstrate that my taste in music is superior, given the appreciation of art depends on how the subjective observer relates to the work, drawing on their own past experience & general nature, i can safely conclude that certain types of people are inclined to like certain types of music, and therefore that a person's taste in music is, to some degree, a reflection of their personality. as most classical music is, to me, boring and irrelevant, i can therefore conclude that anyone who thinks classical music is the best music is, to me, an escapist dullard.
seriously this desire to believe that your own preferences are supported by INCONTROVERTIBLE OBJECTIVE FACT just reeks of insecurity and a childish philosophical outlook
