Country music, Either it’s directly racist and faux-populist or it’s just boring. Like you’ll have a song by some millionaire who’s like “We got problems here, but Folks don’t care/ The big gov folks gonna do what they do, but won’t drop Welfare for ‘you know who’ “ and on the other end it’s like “Born and raised on my grandma’s ranch, gotta bunch of holes in my overall pants”Like all the songs are about being in a rural environment. Nothing else. Screamcore Death Metal is annoying to me. Like if I was actively fighting a war as a viking I could see something worthwhile in it, but nothing I could ever do would be intense and angry enough to listen to this music while doing it. Like am I supposed to casually drive around listening to this? Is it allowed for me to fold towels while listening to it? It seems like music to be played in a fight to the death, not even like a Kumite situation, like the end of the movie Misery where you fight dirty for your own life, that’s not my vibe at all tbh. I’ve had family members and friends who like that stuff and it’s fine, as long as they have headphones. I agree about R&B but ONLY bad R&B that’s basically just describing what sex is. Like it’s very uncomfortable to listen to one of the late 2000s R&B radio stations with parents or uncles and aunts and stuff. My parents and their siblings grew up in the 60s and 70s so when they think of R&B they think of Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes, Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, Al Green and the Five Stairsteps. So when they put on an R&B station it’s like nails on a chalkboard to hear someone describe cunnilingus to my older family members.
Modern country music is such a perversion of the genre. It used to be about working class people and suffering against the law and bosses. Now it’s all consumerist othering shite. I can listen to older stuff plenty.
Even still not a fan of the rhythm of it. Like I get it isn’t all MAGA crackers, but even the old songs I’m not into at all. In New Vegas I don’t think there’s like more than 2 songs I like in the whole game
Lol Polo shirts switched for me, I LOVED them in Middle School and HS bc I thought it made me look nice but then I switched over to soccer jerseys and never looked back
Unfortunately for me I prefer hockey, and I don’t think I could pull off hockey jerseys as everyday wear lol. I’ve accepted the stereotypical WASP look now, it throws people off when they start talking politics and realise I’m far more left than they thought.
I also have a missing link type clothing item that lies between Soccer jerseys and Polos, Rugby jerseys. It’s basically just a polo with text across it for which team it is, way less logos and designs, but if you don’t fuck with a sports vibe I get it.
I know that not all country is like that but most is, and even then the ones that aren’t just don’t tickle my fancy idk what to say I don’t like country music
I agree about country, but I can’t deny how much I like listening to “the devil went down to Georgia” or Marty Robbins. I also like listening listening “simple man” as a joke. Listening to Charlie describe the ills of society and attributing it to people “throwing their bibles away.” Of course, he goes on to propose solutions diametrically opposed to what Jesus actual said. If you want some decent country, I’ve liked Tony Rice’s Church street Blues.
What artists are “screamcore death metal?” All I can find is punk. I generally like angry music, but I’m wondering what specific stuff you don’t like.
screamo is usually regarded as a different thing than death metal, i think you may just mean deathcore. and to each their own, from a metal listener it’s definitely about the anger but also it’s just pleasant to listen to. the heavy rhythmic elements are really enjoyable and satisfying to listen to. when it comes to the vocals, it’s kinda within the style to sound like that, the vocals are treated as an instrument like the guitars or drums are and usually you aren’t supposed to understand the lyrics anyways.
I can appreciate Metal for sure, the song Painkiller by Judas Priest is one of my favorite songs ever but much like that song, I’m not a fan of the screeching lyrics. I can definitely enjoy instrumental metal though
Nah, it’s def different from Punk. I have plenty of respect for Punk. Henry Rollins, Black Flag, Minor Threat, stuff like that, Green Day is not as hard Punk as I thought they were when I was younger but I still love their first couple albums. I don’t listen to a lot of Punk much anymore but back when Pandora was big I used it a lot for Punk songs

Fair, it’s not something everyone can get into. Maybe I’m liking it more as I get older, like wine and polo shirts.

Nah I like rugby, which reminds me the world cup is on soon so I’ll have to figure out what teams I want to see lose hardest
Polo gang
Was it? I thought it was pushed by established record labels as “hillbilly records” which was a perversion of folk music.
Hmm I didn’t know about that. I’m not too knowledgeable on music history in terms of label fuckery and stuff.
hard disagree with you there comrade, check these out

The Death Metal where they just scream and there are barely any lyrics, in my area(idk it may be an international term) we call it “Screamo”

I thought that was the punk stuff. I’ll check it out. I like death metal, but it can be a bit much.
