Mu/

/mu/ is a shitty board on 4chan dedicated to music, although really it's just about being as indie as possible and listening to obscure hipster garbage to impress everybody. It is one of the few boards on 4chan where being a tripfag is deemed acceptable, and it is extremely poorly moderated. Keep in mind when entering the board that your favourite band sucks and you have fucking terrible taste.

How to be a /mu/tant

The pretentious dickcheeses that dwell on /mu/ call themselves /mu/tants and are world renowned for listening to extremely bad music. Everybody on the board seems to have a humongous hard-on for Neutral Milk Hotel, Radiohead, and any band you've never heard of. To be a successful tripfag on /mu/, all you have to do either be extremely obnoxious; or hate absolutely every band/song/album that ever gets posted, and spam Last.fm threads with your over 9000 scrobbles of shitty J-pop bands and Post-avant garde jazzcore that you found on Pitchfork.

How to troll /mu/

The typical greeting awaiting a newcomer to the board.

• Post Neutral Milk Hotel in a sharethread.
• Ask which album to start with for a certain artist, this will create a shitstorm of asspies spamming your thread with "WITH THEIR FIRST ALBUM LIKE YOU WOULD WITH ANY OTHER ARTIST!!!!1!!1!"
• Start a Metal thread.
• Say Thom Yorke or Jeff Mangum are bad singers.
• Say music was better in the 60s and 70s and complain about how everyone your age listens to Justin Bieber.
