Edit: I don’t know what I was thinking when I made this post, all music is pretty good
Just begs to question: what do you consider “music”
Country sucks, newer stuff doubly so.
Honky Tonk Badonkadonk, what fucking cultural appropriation.
Or you can join Deezer and then when you’re driving you can ask for whatever you want.
And you’ll get a Christmas version. Or a “live” version. Or a fucking obscure cover. Every time. And god help you if you ask for an artist rather than a track. Yeesh. One obscure track by the artist followed by random tracks from German rock bands and other total irrelevance.
In summary: I love Deezer.
Why would I listen to music that fucking sucks?
I knew it dariacore is actually good for me.
But what if you just don’t like music that sucks? It’s entirely reasonable.
ITT: people think pop music “fucking sucks”
The world is new, boomers:
Beautiful.
I live for silly music made by trans people
Ada Rook fucking rocks. Also I’m currently obsessed with Lauren Blousfield, though I’d call her music more “terrifying” than “silly”.
What’s a band you love that is legit difficult for others?
I might submit Death Grips. I know no others irl who love them 😂
Yeah I agree with that lol I’ve been listening to Hobo Johnson and the Lovemakers, and that’s pretty widely disliked
Spent my formative years in the punk/alt scene. So it was always frowned upon to venture outside of those genres. Then in my 20s I started allowing myself to enjoy all genres. Haven’t looked(listened?) back since!
Same, except it was the local trve metal scene instead of punk. “If it ends in -core, I don’t like” was a common thing to say, and anything pop/rap/hip-hop wasn’t considered to be music at all. Even bigger metal acts, like Metallica, weren’t popular because they had “sold out.” The NWOBHM was all I lived for in the early 2010s.
got really tired of the “-core” haters, they seem to get upset only at the naming convention because hardcore influences often make a subgenre even heavier
like have you ever heard of mathcore?? that shits peak, its one of the noisiest subgenres i know AND it has hardcore influence
gatekeepers can stay mad
It took me a while, but when I started getting into death metal, that’s what paved the road to hardcore genres for me. And I’m so glad that happened because I would’ve missed out on so much great music, so many fun nights in the pit, and some really cool shows with, like, thirty people there.
Oh don’t get me started on “Sell outs” I’ve always been very adjacent to the metal scene but had no idea that the same argument applied. I think what opened up my tastes more was when I got into synthwave/Electronica massively about 10 years ago and branched out from there.
I don’t mean to hate on rap artists and their fans, but the second half of this meme hits home:
I have my plate of good music and then a little pop on the side as a treat
No, I’ll listen only to bangers
😎
There is a lot of good music out there, it’s just not as likely to be in the Spotify or (insert service) recommends because that market is extremely rigged.
I find YouTube to be good but I’ve spent the last few years curating my recommendations by telling the service to stop suggesting me rage bait, reaction videos, shorts etc.
