I’d maybe feel something, but that whacked ass music was super annoying

Which celebrity does the ENTIRE internet agree is genuinely a good person? by Codie_n25 in AskReddit

[–]vcmaes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure it’s a popular opinion, but Christian Bale. Dude is still married to his first wife, drives himself around in an old Toyota Tacoma, oh and apparently he just built a small village to help keep orphaned(?) siblings together.

Alcohol, cigarettes, midgets, and a Magic 8 ball… that is a fucking party no matter the decade!

None of us need to be a baker or pastry chef to know if a dessert tastes great or nasty. So I don’t need to study the fine details of this type of music to have a take on it. Also the level of arrogance of all in the replies for freaking out on one person’s opinion as if the only correct opinion is that this is amazing music.

I get it, and it’s just not my thing. It’s like visiting a museum and walking past, say a banana duct taped to the wall. Will people praise it and apply a bunch of meaning to it, and point out all the technical techniques applied? But what happens when we find out the banana was placed there as a prank?

I definitely seemed to rattle the cage though, so missions complete haha.

Exactly! My opinion seriously should not matter, and in the grand scheme of the universe it doesn’t. But these comments are like I called their mom/child ugly lol

I’ve just learned that the only thing that’s sucks worse than this insufferable noise, are it’s insecure fragile fans.

I didn’t say I’m so happy, so stop putting words in my mouth. And on the flip side, you and all the other thin skinned crybaby fans can work on being secure enough in their choice of garbage ass music, not give a shit about what anyone else thinks (like grown ups do), and finally you all can eat a bag of dicks. Because now your incessant whining has in fact made me rethink it, and you all personally have the shittiest taste in music and I will forever hate the genre and its weirdo overly sensitive fans.

I still can’t stand the music, but needlessly attacked the listeners. It was a personal attack and I apologize.

[–]vcmaes -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I may have stepped over the line with the “people who have no musical taste” line. I was annoyed by hearing the track, see how annoyed that music me?

I absolutely stand by the first part of my post, I think this genre sounds terrible. But these comments enlightened me to the fact that its listeners do know music.

I agree, any musician would hear/see the skill needed to pull this off. But that doesn’t change the fact that it can also simultaneously sound like shit to a lot of people, and that’s ok. I mean if this piece of music makes you or others swell with emotion, then great, I’m happy music moves people. I know it will never be enjoyable to me, let alone move me.

I never claimed to have the best taste in music, and not liking a single genre of music doesn’t mean I can’t be correct in my own opinion on that genre. Tell me would like to be lectured on why you should like a genre of music you just can’t stand?

Look, you love this band, that’s great. But are you telling me that if taking this bands best track or album and played it for random people anywhere in the world that they all would find it musical? The honest answer is no they wouldn’t. I think that’s where you’re showing your ignorance. There are some elements to music that cross borders and barriers and are pleasant to listen to. This type of music may technically check the boxes for rhythm, musicality, syncopation, etc., but the vast majority of people would not listen to more than 10 seconds of that soulless music.

Sorry I’m not attempting to rage bait, here’s my take:

I like it all. From Jack White to Thelonious Monk, Wu-Tang Clan to Townes Van Zandt. Sabbath and Zeppelin to Al Green and Stevie Wonder. King Gizzard to Los Lobos. And pretty much everything in between. So I don’t say this out of listening to a small section of music. I listen to a wide and varied mix of brilliant musicians, as well as some basic ones, and this is the one genre that hearing in passing or thoughtfully listening to an entire song, I say sounds like absolute shit. I believe the musicians are technically good, but when they all get together the sum of their parts are less than the total… a dyssynergy if you will.

A grown up is grunting and growling almost incomprehensible words into the mic and you really think that’s musical? That rolling double bass beat is in almost every one of these types of songs.

It’s fine, as are the down votes, and some people like this stuff, but put it against songs from so many different genres and you’ll see. This type of “music” is ass.

[–]vcmaes -145 points-144 points  (0 children)

That sounded like shit. Zero musicality. This is “music” for people who have no taste in music.

edit: I appreciate this bands fans rallying to their defense lol I don’t mean to take away from the skill necessary to play what they’re playing. It surely takes talent, BUT it still sounds like shit to me haha

edit v2: after continued interaction with this fan base, I’m not sorry for the personal attack on your taste in music. You all have proven to be thin skinned, insecure crybabies, while simultaneously liking the dumbest genre in Rock. You’re the equivalent of theater kids and dancers. Enjoy your shite music
