i think there is a hierarchy of music, and some music takes a rather itelligent/intellectual person to appreciate and love. and if there was a stated heirarchy of music, the near perfection band (since there is no such thing as perfection and there will always be room for improvement) would be the mars volta......at the drive in with no crappy guys, just coke.
I think it's all subjective. I, for one, love Frog Eyes. I've yet to meet another human being who also likes Frog Eyes. But I find Frog Eyes to be fucking beautiful music.
hierarchy of music, no. i think, personally, that having a broader range of music makes a person more intelligent. art is absolutely subjective, and finding beauty in something, that maybe most or even all people find to be terrible, and being "able to freely reason" why it is beautiful (in any way) makes a person (even more so) intelligent and intellectual. now, i'm not saying that that is the only characteristic that makes someone intelligent or that all intelligent people have that same characteristic of having a broad taste in music, but someone who is intelligent and intellectual knows that people are not perfect and would easily admit to a guilty pleasure or two (musically and otherwise).
