Unpopular views about music

I thought the Bangles did a pretty rocking Hazy Shade of Winter.

There are exceptions of course. On the same note of uninspiring rock slop, today I listened to Danko Jones for the first time. And Jesus Christ, this was the most generic, edgy, AI written, composed and or orchestrated "rock". I had to Google it right after turning off the radio in disgust and to my shock they are an actual and successful band. They are Canadian though, that might explain everything.

Larry LaLonde really should've stuck with Possessed

Dimebag Darrell gets too much credit as a guitarist, just 'cos, surprise-surprise, he's dead. Is this an unpopular view? Fuck it, I'm counting it here.

It's unfortunate, but it's still better than Dimebag being alive

I don't understand how big Sean is as popular as he is. There's literally no appeal to his music yet he's on the radio 24/7 and people seem to take him seriously? He sounds like he's asleep at the mic, the beats are unengaging dogshit, there's nothing special about his lyrics... I get it I get it popular rap is kinda trash but I can find something to enjoy about artists like future and Drake etc but Big Sean is just terrible

There is no electronic music track that is improved by heavily processed vocalizations of any form. Daft Punk should burn in hell for bringing lyrics as the centerpiece to the mainstream and deadmau5 should burn for cementing the trend with Raise Your Weapon. Thank God for like-minded autists that immediately put out instrumental only mixes of otherwise ruined songs.

@Calandrino Still, to get shot to death in front of everybody? I'd sooner take Keith Moon's way of croaking.

@Amateur Shoelace Tyer (Bad music taste) AROUND THE WuuURld. That one's an earworm, though. Don't give a fuck about deadmau5, and he and DP have something in common: Hardly anybody'd be interested (maybe) if it weren't for their appearance. That's their gimmick.

Though DP would probably still get more attention than deadmau5, 'cos they're Frogs. I think mau5 is either Belgian or Dutch, I forget. American Dad did a piss funny pisstake of him, called DJ Hiney-Monkey. Roger was also dressed as Hunter S. Thompson in that one. Oh, and is Raise Your Weapon a enthusiasm for cawks? Y'know, like how Whistle, by Flo-Rida, is about girlfriends who give great gack-gack beej's (plural? Fuck it).

@Starscream's Loyalty I should probably feel blessed relief that I've never heard of him/her/it/slug/chimpanzee/cat/dog/hermaphrodite/hamster. For once, I'm gonna ignore my chronic curiosity.

@del_toid Big Sean likes to do prison wife roleplay.

Mau5 is a canuck, and anyone's guess would be as good as mine as to whether or not the whole song is a dick joke.

I think I'm so used to treating vocals as textures in EDM that the excessive processing hasn't really bothered me, though in RYW's case I much prefer the Noisia remix where they're easier to ignore.

Ah. Maybe I was thinking of Afrojack, for whatever reason.

@AnOminous Oasis are/were a glorified Mancunian Beatles wannabe band. Growing up, people assumed I was named after Liam Gallagher (Ugh...). My mum actually, more or less named me after Neeson, 'cause she fancied him a bit.

Pantera were okay as a band. I like them better than the majority of hardcore metal/hard rock bands. However, I feel if these guys were both clean and got along together better they could had been so much more.

Anselmo only says Dimebag was the greatest guitarist of all time 'cos he's still heartbroken over him dying.

@Rick The Stick Cheers, Rick, for sharing my opinion. I think Peter Gabriel used to bang Bush for a time. I imagine Pete G. got tired of how much of a hippie Kate B. is. I mean, Gabriel's weird, but in creativity terms, or something, but Bush is probably all about what she is. Or when she was still a young woman, anyway.

I love Peter Gabriel, Kate Bush, and Peter Gabriel performing with Kate Bush. I'm not sure if that belongs here because I don't think it's an unpopular opinion. "Don't Give Up" is such epic feels.
