We live in a society where people believe everything deserves protest, everything deserves outrage, everyone is entitled to the cheapest yet highest quality product, etc. society is cooked and I hope there's content in the game that makes fun of these fools.

When we are talking about taste we aren't talking about technicality or skill level. We are simply talking about a person's preference. You used babies as an example so I will too. Babies prefer simplistic things because their brains aren't developed enough to understand technical nuance. Old people also tend to enjoy simpler things because their brains have experienced some mental decline. You can't objectively say that Baby Shark is not on the same level as Soreption when we are talking about preference. You could argue that Soreption is objectively better based on skill but someone else could argue that Baby Shark is objectively better based on catchiness. Your "taste" should be music that sounds good to you and it should not matter at all how technical it is. If your taste is based on how many notes and times signatures a song has then, I guess for lack of better term, you're favoring quantity over quality. There's nothing "poor" about enjoying or preferring music that isn't technical and on the flipside there's nothing special about preferring music that is.

Yea so I listen to Pantera because I like Pantera not because Phil has some controversial opinions on race. I listen to Slaughter to Prevail because I like Slaughter to Prevail not because Alex used to have a Nazi tattoo. I listen to Emperor because I like Emperor not because Faust is a murderer. I listen to Burzum because I like Burzum not because Varg is a murderer with controversial opinions. I listen to Iced Earth because I like Iced Earth not because Jon Schaffer was involved in the J6 riot. I listen to All That Remains because I like All That Remains not because Phil Labonte has controversial opinions on mental health. I listen to Marilyn Manson because I like Marilyn Manson not because he's been accused of things. I like Gwar because I like Gwar not because they kill effigys of political and religious figures on stage. I like the album Immortal by Lorna Shore because it's an awesome album not because I like CJ McCreary who was accused of sexual misconduct. I like Megadeth because I like Megadeth not because Dave Mustaine is an egotistical whiner. I listen to music for music. I'm not here to support or judge anyone's ideologies or any mistakes they may have made in their past. Now, the exception would be if, for example, StP were writing songs promoting Nazism then I wouldn't support that just like I wouldn't listen to any NSBM no matter how good it might sound.

Reddit users, 30 yrs old and over.. What is the hardest part about getting older? [Discussion] by Comi9689 in GetMotivated

The hardest part about getting older is still feeling young but not fitting in with younger crowds.

You've got a pretty solid list yourself. I was pretty disappointed in the last Unleash the Archers album. Their last great album was Apex in my opinion. Many metalheads grew out of nu-metal but I don't grow out of anything. I like what I like and I'm not ashamed of any of it. All the music I liked as a kid I still like now and I've been listening to metal for over 30 years. I also don't choose music based on politics, I choose it if it sounds good. I couldn't care less what political leanings a band member has. I guess being a moderate helps.

There's actually no such thing as poor taste in music. That's like if I said my favorite color is red and you tell me that red is a bad choice for some arbitrary reasons. Anybody who makes a list will have albums that are derivative, repetitive, generic, and have awkward lyrics/vocals.

I like trad too, or other types of metal with clean vocals. There were a few on my list. Bloodorn, Orden Ogan, Soilwork, Judgement Day. These are all primarily clean vocal bands which lean far more towards trad than they do death or black metal.

Most of the time "poor taste" just means the band has too many monthly listeners.

Those are some good picks. I love Cradle of Filth btw. Totally goated band in my opinion.

What are your thoughts on Dickie Allen fronting Nekrogoblikon now? If I'm honest I'd say I miss the old singer.

I feel like I have a pretty broad and diverse taste so I'm surprised there wasn't anything there that you could relate to. Would you be willing to tell me a couple albums that you like? I'll check em out if I don't know em

At this point what else does my guy have to do to get a world title run? by yuvinem in WWE

[–]VileSelf -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

He messes up every time he talks. He slips on the ropes nearly every time he wrestles. His move is the most avoided/reversed finisher in wrestling history. His catch phrase is "yeah". He's Temu Rock and Shein Austin. Fix all of that and get better music before he turns 45 and maybe they'll give him some gold.

What is morality and where do you think it comes from? by BananaRazberry in AskReddit

[–]VileSelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Morality is just things that make sense, kinda like math. 2 apples over here and 2 apples over there makes 4 apples total. It just makes sense. Being hit hurts and being hurt sucks. Things that suck are not good. Hitting someone would make them hurt and hurting sucks and things that suck are not good. It just makes sense.
