Worst genre of music!

Post Reply New Topic

I hate reggaeton, is a puerto rican subgenre and very popular in latin america (I live in chile)

the beats and lyrics is disgusting, and is a copy of the worst topics of gangsta rap

I don't like country or blue grass, it sounds awful to me and the lyrics are pretty lame. And when I hear country I think of christian fundies and it makes me cringe.
Gangsta rap is another one I reeeaaaally dislike, it sounds too forced and "put on". And the rappers always have to be so angry about something, or in the middle of a w*k.
I don't like the dance/pop thing that's popular atm, I like dance and club music but not pop music with dance elements. Because it's made 10 times more lame.
Most metal, especially death and black metals, it sounds so growly and disgusting. Who on earth listens to that and thinks "aahh, yes I am pleased with this song choice"???? I do however like nu metal.

Any other type of music I welcome with open arms.

Yet you praise nu-metal, which was an insult to the good name of metal with whiney and angsty cry-baby nursery rhyme lyrics, lack of guitar solos and forgettable albums. Not all death and black metal is "growly and disgusting", that's as bad a stereotype i'll ever encounter. The likes of Nile, Behemoth, Watain, Enslaved, Decapitated, Krisiun, Rotting Christ et al might not be to everyone's taste, but they have more talent and skill than nu-metal bands will ever have.

I like nu metal because of the things you list really, it's more "easy listening". The heavier stuff just sounds all too over the top.

Fair enough, i just find the stereotype of the heavier genres tiresome and tedious. Anyway, nu-metal died out in 2003 when the likes of Limp Bizkit and Papa Roach were ditched for the rising metalcore genres, nu-metal was the dark age.

Can we all at least agree that autotune is the worst thing ever invented when it comes to things related to music?

It's pretty terrible, but I'm not sure if it's the worst.

Easy listening music is the worst. Blech. Anyway, I like some Nu Metal, like some Korn and Disturbed, but it's not very well liked overall.

What really annoys me is you label most Metal as being so growly and disgusting, and you don't even mention Punk. Well maybe most metal is like that now because of Metalcore, but let's look at the history for a moment:

Heavy Metal:

Hardcore Punk:

Metal didn't get so angry and stuff until it mixed with Hardcore Punk. Anyway, angry isn't bad, to understand why you need to understand the concepts of catharsis and meaning. Emotional songs allow people to relive themselves of such emotions, so a sad song can actually make someone happier in the end. Emotions songs also help solidify their meaning.

Crunkcore & Reggaeton are certainly contenders after observing this thread.

But we still have to get past modern mainstream R&B.

I like some things you all don't like and you all like some things I don't like, and then we all got over it.

I don't like today's music, or at least most of it. A recent scientific study saying that all pop music today sounds the same doesn't help matters.

They actually needed to conduct a study?

Rap ballet. I dunno...I always thought there would be a big market for rap-infused ballet dancing, but I've been told I'm in the minority.

They didn't need to, but they did it anyways just to prove that they could.

IMOO, it's a tie between rap and country.

I'm not sure which thread had a discussion about Metal subgenres, so I'll put it here:

POWER METAL: The protagonist arrives riding a white unicorn, escapes from the dragon, saves the princess and makes love to her in an enchanted forest.
THRASH METAL: The protagonist arrives, fights the dragon, saves the princess and f***s her.
HEAVY METAL: The protagonist arrives on a Harley, kills the dragon, drinks a few beers and f***s the princess.
FOLK METAL: The protagonist arrives with some friends playing accordions, violins, flutes and many more weird instruments, the dragon falls asleep (because of all the dancing). Then all leave........ without the princess.
VIKING METAL: The protagonist arrives in a ship, kills the dragon with his mighty axe, skins the dragon and eats it, rapes the princess to death, steals her belongings and burns the castle before leaving.
DEATH METAL: The protagonist arrives, kills the dragon, f***s the princess and kills her, then leaves.
BLACK METAL: The protagonist IS the dragon, dwells in the heart of the night with in a castle full of hellhounds and eternal flames. He kills the sassy knight, f***s the noble steed and sacrifices the princess to Satan.
GORE METAL: The protagonist arrives, kills the dragon and spreads his guts in front of the castle, f***s the princess and kills her. Then he f***s the dead body again, slashes her belly and eats her guts. Then he f***s the carcass for the third time, burns the corpse and f***s it for the last time.
DOOM METAL: The protagonist arrives, sees the size of the dragon and thinks he could never beat him, then he gets depressed and commits suicide. The dragon eats his body and the princess as dessert. That's the end of the sad story.
PROGRESSIVE METAL: The protagonist arrives with a guitar and plays a solo of 26 minutes. The dragon kills himself out of boredom. The protagonist arrives to the princess' bedroom, plays another solo with all the techniques and tunes he learned in the last year of the conservatory. The princess escapes looking for the 'HEAVY METAL' protagonist.
GLAM METAL: The protagonist arrives, the dragon laughs at the guy's appearance and lets him enter. He steals the princess' make up and tries to paint the castle in a beautiful pink colour.
NU METAL: The protagonist arrives in a run down Honda Civic and attempts to fight the dragon but he burns to death when his moronic baggy clothes catch fire.
DEATHCORE: The protagonist arrives in a tank top and brand new plugs, screams "f**k YOU SLUT" at the princess and precedes to hardcore dance until the dragon burns him to death.
STONER METAL: The protagonist, dragon, and princess all smoke pot and dissolve blotter tabs while proclaiming themselves as being higher than the sun.
TECHNICAL DEATH METAL: The protagonist, dragon, and princess all die of old age waiting for the new Necrophagist album to come out.
