I’d say either Christian pop, R&b, or industry pop
Gotta be dubstep. I loved it back in the day, but now I just roll my eyes at it.
Man I remember grinding Minecraft and listening to two hour long dubstep mixes back in the days lol. Must’ve been annoying as fuck for my parents.
Cmon it’s not that bad, you could find many dope songs if you dig deep enough. There are also many different flavors of dubstep so I would argue that it’s a genre for everyone and anyone.
The first time I ever heard of Dubstep was from a Key & Peele sketch and I was so confused lol I was wondering wtf they were listening to
Thank lord in heaven theres no anti rap weirdos
…
Sorry.
okay its mostly because the ones really against it are very weird and racist about it, youre good comrade
…
Beklager
same to you comrade, it is okay to not like rap, just not in the weird neoliberal way that hates on black people
Hardcore/hardstyle. Very popular in The Netherlands, with huge festivals where every guy takes of his shirt to flex his pumped up muscles. And almost every football club plays hardcore before the match.
I don’t hate on it and let everyone be, but Jesus fucking Christ is it shite
This is basically a majority of Dutch festivals

Only 2? There’s at least hardcore techno and hardcore punk too, and all the “-core” genres that spawn from them
True!
Catholic kids music.
Pure indocrtination.
Also “Chrześcijanin tańczy” has been quite a meme in the Polish internet-sphere.
My least favorite music genre is K-pop, which is also one of my most favorite music genres.
K-pop from ROK -> Bad
K-pop from DPRK -> Good
I used to say this as a meme but DPRK pop slaps, unironically.
DPRK has them Kalashnikovs, they boutta make that K pop🔥🔫
Example of NK pop?
“Chollima on the wing” is a good one
Wow, really beautiful song, thank you for sharing. I hesitate to call it pop but def good stuff.
Does North Korea even produce pop? I like some of their music, but I wouldn’t call anything I’ve heard “pop”.
I guess pop can just mean whatever is popular.
Breakcore, the people involved in that scene are the most intensely individualistic people I’ve ever met in my life.
Also that subsect of both rap and hip-hop with hood capitalist bullshit. RIP dead prez you used to be revolutionary.
I don’t know that that’s true, maybe you just met some shitty breakcore fans. I’m not a fan but I do listen to some idm music which can be breakcore-adjacent at times.
I’m something of a breakcore fan myself, I can’t say there aren’t individualists amongst the fans or artists, of course, but it’s like more genres in that regard. (Also depends on what you mean by breakcore I think cause there’s quite the dispute between oldschool breakcore fans - stuff like Venetian Snares, Alec Empire’s “The Destroyer”, etc. - and new music being labelled ‘breakcore’ but which is mostly kinda shitty drum’n’bass with creepy anime cover art).
I’ll listen to something out of most genres, but I think a lot of popular hard rock is pretty corny.
What do you mean specifically? I listen to a lot of relatively popular hard rock. Do you mean like Limp Bizkit, Slipknot, or FFDP being silly and angry for no reason?
More like Five Finger Death Punch!
They are a little silly. A lot of the bands I like have a lot of music that sound the same, but at least try to be unique with it.
I always get the vibe that FFDP are a bunch of really nice and polite people trying to give off a vibe of being hardcore and angry and not understanding how to do it.
I was going for “crypto-fash dweebs”, but I agree with the basic premise
I don’t know enough about them outside of my brother listening to them, your take is probably more accurate.
Hardbass, it pleases my autistic ears but it annoys me so much. Its not russian, its a piece of russia cut out by colonialists and shaped to fill their biases so we can all meme about it. It exists to entertain Anglos.
absolutely. i think the whole slav meme with the hardbass and shit was engineered for edgy western 13 year olds and has made russian culture look like a complete joke on the internet
Christian Contemporary - in whatever flavour. I don’t have much fondness for the church as it is and they manage to make something that’s even worse than Christian Rock which, to quote Comrade Hill: “You’re not making Christianity better you’re just making rock and roll worse.”
Oh… maybe Martial Industrial or Neo-folk. Both of which are fucking teeming with fascists, or “apoliteic” bands. Pretty much everyone you look at in either genre is gonna be quoting Ernst Jünger and Julius Evola, amongst other more obscure fascist or fascist-adjacent ideologues. They have this romantic notion of ‘Europa’, free from the decadence of liberal democracy and multiculturalism - they’re unironic ‘RETVRN’ types.
Ew I hate Christian contemporary. I can get on board with some orthochants though. The only modern Christian contemporary stuff that’s cool is the Farcry 5 soundtrack, and I never played the game because I don’t like Farcry
It always bums me out to hear Christian bands who sound good, especially vocalists. Like, I don’t want to say it’s a complete waste of talent, but…
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
Fair, it’s not something everyone can get into. Maybe I’m liking it more as I get older, like wine and polo shirts.
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.
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.
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.
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”
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
I thought that was the punk stuff. I’ll check it out. I like death metal, but it can be a bit much.
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
I like to think I can enjoy some stuff from most any genre but if I had to pick one probably like really hard metal ? Not familiar with the exact terminology, but I find it very grating and not in a satisfying way. Also isn’t a lot of it pretty nazi adjacent/outright nazi ? I may just be very ignorant of the genre but yea
there are problems with nazi presence in extreme metal, and because the genre is so heavily white, cis, and male, it can end up with reactionaries being allowed to stay. but on the other end of extreme metal you can find a lot of queer people and women making great shit as well as bands that are very leftist or at least hold some of those ideals. i myself am a trans woman in the extreme metal scene and it’s really a 50/50 chance if a space is reactionary or not but overall i love the welcoming spaces i’ve found.
I agree. I’ve always loved metal but don’t like the fan base. I identify way more with people from the hardcore screen I’ve found.
The term is “extreme metal”! Contains all kind of families like death metal, grindcore and black metal, the latter being the one that is infested with nazis. There is an underground of left wing bands thankfully but historically the genre has been targeted
Basically everything that plays on DR P4 København, which is a Danish radio channel
Rap. No hate to fans, but it’s just people saying words really fast. If I wanted that stuff I’d listen to speeches at 2x speed or something.
I can respect that… but I can’t imagine listening to Protect Ya Neck by Wu-Tang and not getting hyped af to that. If you haven’t heard it I highly recommend it, even the censored version is cool because they use guitar riffs as censors
I like rap, but feel the same way sometimes. It really depends on the artist if it sounds like that I feel like.
While I do like some fast shit I agree that particularly these days a lot of spaces in the genre is oversaturated with people trying to stuff as many syllables as they possibly can into a line with little regard to A) saying something of substance or B) making music that sounds good.
I don’t know what you might possibly be into but there are definitely some really good artists that take their time with what they say.
same here, I try to listen to rap music every now and then but I just can’t get into it at all. I think I’m generally more into the instrumental part of a song rather than the vocals. And since rap is like 90% about the vocals I just find it hard to enjoy.
Obviously you’re free to dislike how genres sound but I feel like that’s an oversimplification of the genre. It’s not just people saying words really fast, there are plenty of slower rappers. It’s more about the flow and the wordplay not to mention there’s a decent amount of artists that do a sing/rap thing at the same time.
It depends on the artist. The mainstream industry stuff is crap, but there’s a lot of good stuff out there. If you want some artistic or thought provoking stuff I recommend Aesop Rock (particularly Labor Days), Dead Prez (the first album), Mos Def, and Atmosphere.
I’d listen to anything as long as it sounds good beyond the words, like the instruments and the vocals are good, so my least favorite genres are ones that are like (examples of what I’ve heard but refused continuing the catalogue) Cardi B WAP or some songs by Eminem (tonedeaf) and Ice Spice, I don’t mind the lyrics because a lot of times the songs I like are filthier, idk if someone can recommend me something that is like this but sounds good send it and I’ll listen.
Lose Yourself is probably one of Em’s most iconic songs, if you don’t like that one or Without Me, then you probably just don’t like Eminem, and that’s fine, everyone has different taste
Eminem was one of the first rappers I really dug into, but a decade later I think Lose Yourself is one of the few songs I can always appreciate as much as I did as a teen.
Yeah I like these ones, but I’m talking the very specific style of tone deaf
Yea I can understand that, his newer stuff is generally not as good, the music video was a bit creative, I’ll give him that but the art style was weird
from eminem, “idgaf” is a kinda cool song, “my band” too
I’ve never gotten into Cardi B or Ice Spice. Do you mean you don’t like Eminem particularly his song Tone Deaf (which I admit isn’t great) or do you think he’s tonedeaf. Surely you could find some of his stuff you’d like? Either way, Eminem was my most listened to artist last year (not this year).
Yeah I meant the way there was barely any instruments in tone deaf, I like his other songs though.
The Eminem show slaps along with a lot of other stuff, but some of the more recent stuff isn’t great.
spoiler
My best friend loves it so no hate but I just can’t get into the whole indie, pop punk, folk sort of stuff–maybe sometimes folk is okay but only if it’s made by rural poor people not suburban upper middle class kids. I guess I just don’t like suburban whining (“nonono it’s SUPPOSED to sound bad!”). Bright Eyes is okay.
There’s a lot of stuff I have a very short patience for. Everyone around me right now listens to drill, I like NBA YB but other than that all the flows and lyrics of the scene are really repetitive and its soulfully exhausting. I have to be in a very bad spot or en route to terrible crimes to want to hear drill. Considering its made by killers for killers after generations of being corrupted under American culture that’s not surprising.
I also just can’t get into old school hip hop or rappity rap.
98% of anything that makes it to the Top 40 these days is just McDonald’s music.
I really like some classical and want to get into it but everytime I explore outside of OSTs/modern classical and try to listen to Dimitrille Von Orgenspognan or whoever from centuries ago I find it unbelievably boring and, ironic to what its fans say, emotionless, I can see some stuff just being lost in translation across hundreds of years though.
I recommend The Pharcyde’s song Passin Me By for Old School Rap, it doesn’t come off as Sugar Hill Gang which was kinda cringe in retrospect. Shook Ones pt2 by Mobb Deep is awesome too but Idk if it’s THAT old
I also just can’t get into old school hip hop or rappity rap.
You’ve never jammed to Curtis Blow or Rapper’s Delight?
