the worst style of music?

Toilet & Bowels · 09.12.2007, 03:05 PM

what do you think is the worst style/genre/sub-genre of music?

my choices:

1. funky house
2. happy hardcore
3. gabba
4. mainstream indie
5. dark ambient

MellySingsDoom · 09.12.2007, 03:07 PM

Agree totally on funky house - yeech!

king_buzzo · 09.12.2007, 03:09 PM

jumpstyle.

end of story.

(for those of you who dont know it, its like techno, but it has all these folish melodies and chavs dance to it with passion.

also, serbian turbo folk. whenever i hear something thats in the genre i just laugh. the lyrics are maazing though.

Rob Instigator · 09.12.2007, 03:10 PM

in no particular order since they all suck so much

house
techno
dance
rave
electronica

Savage Clone · 09.12.2007, 03:11 PM

I will use the larger size type for this, which is rarely called for.
Here it comes.

Chill Out (I think this is only used on mainland Europe, but I've seen cds with that tag on it in Britain too)
Glitchcore
Opera
Nu-Rave
New Wave Of New Wave

The list could fill three pages or more.

pantophobia · 09.12.2007, 03:13 PM

1. Modern Pop-Country
2. Punk you'd find on the Warped Tour
3. Bling Rap (has died down some)
4. whatever remains of Nu-Metal
5. Dentist office smooth jazz

Hey! There's pretty good things in House, techno and especially ELECTRONICA. Oh well that's your point of view.

I'd go with:

Pop/Punk
Neo metal
The Mars Volta
R&B
Heavy Metal

Savage Clone · 09.12.2007, 03:14 PM

Cue Glice to defend Happy Hardcore, even though we all know it can't be done.

king_buzzo · 09.12.2007, 03:17 PM

my second post only has one little thing:

MTV.

Dont like slating a whole genre, but Funky House = So fucking terrible at what its supposed to do; make you dance. If youre gonna insist on repitition at least do the same kind of repitition each time.

Rob Instigator · 09.12.2007, 03:34 PM

that stupid dance shit is so completely disposable anyway. what's the point?

09.12.2007, 03:38 PM

New Grave
Talking of House music, PROGRESSIVE HOUSE (What's that all about?)
Electroclash (Wouldn't Synth Pop or simply Electro do?)
Handbag House (It's very much Happy Hardcore , but with a different name)
Crossover Metal

k-krack · 09.12.2007, 03:40 PM

Oi.
Ska.
Any combination of the two.
Ringtones. (Sure, it's a genre).
Muzak.
Any house/dance/rave/shit like that... Fuck it all. I don't want to hear "boom ch bah ch boom ch bah ch" all day long, dude. Or at all.
Radio/video rap.

I'm forgetting something...

Cardinal Rob · 09.12.2007, 03:45 PM

Ah. Man. That fucking techno/dance/(progressive/acid) house/(happy) hardcore/gabba shit that's regurgitated out.

The stuff that sounds the same and shares the same structure with a few different notes thrown together: a madly deranged chipmunk begs in a sing-song voice for mercy as a merciless fellow man turns on the washing machine that the chipmunk's trapped inside, and they yell in vain as it chugs along while some retarded man in a bobble hat and oversized fleece hits his fists aimlessly against a few keyboards. As far as I'm concerned, no-one likes that stuff. If one of these hack artists released a limited vinyl print at 40£, none of their "fans" would get it, as they only listen to it to fit in, and aren't bothered about paying more than 13£ an album to do so. Clueless polo shirt wearers who see life through the eyes of an ADD-suffering grasshopper.

FruitLoop · 09.12.2007, 03:54 PM

Any style Helmut Lotti has contaminated throughout his carreer

(edit) also, so called "jock rock"

Toilet & Bowels · 09.12.2007, 03:59 PM

yeah, electroclash, especially the stuff i hear around these days
english chart-pop music for the last 30 years
loop-station one man psych/noise/folk stuff (apart from fursaxa & alexander tucker)
fx pedal noise groups

sonicl · 09.12.2007, 04:03 PM

1. English "Indie" - Pretty much everything from Britpop onwards, but especially the current Arctic Monkeys / Kaiser Chiefs type stuff. An excuse for drunken student boys to get on the dance floor and have a cuddle.

2. The kind of thing that goes boomboomboom out of the back of a pimped up hatchback full of wannabe gangstas.

Torn Curtain · 09.12.2007, 04:29 PM

"Chanson française néo-réaliste" (French singers like Vincent Delerm or Jeanne Cherhal). They're terrible.
