it is pretty fucking terrible indeed.
power violence is a dumb fucking name for a musical genre.
nearly as dumb as "grunge"
"soul" music tells you exactly what it is, music to uplift the soul.
"Rhythm & Blues" is exactly what it sounds like
"salsa" conjures up the vibe of the frenetic Caribbean dance music
"punk rock" is exactly that, rock music made by punk ass mo-fucks, degenerates, reprobates, etc.
"hardcore punk" also makes lots of sense, and instantly gives you a feel for what it may sound like and what it's attitude will be.
"electronica" perfectly describes the music, at least how it is created.
"twee" also describes the sound and aesthetic of a music
etc etc
"power violence" sounds like some stupid fucking juggalo deciding to call his hardcore band something else, because it is "fierce" and "awesome" and "hard", but instead it sounds like a goddamn stupid cartoon
