What are some of your "warning sign" bands? - When you hear someone says they like X band then it's time to ask for the check.

So here's the thing. Sampled music is a problem for me, but only if the person doesn't know the song being sampled. For example if you listen to Jason Derulos's Whatcha Say. Not knowing Hide and Seek by Imogen heap is a bad sign. This doesn't apply to covers though.
 
What about Daft Punk?
Can you give me an example? Not sure if I've heard a song that uses a sample clear enough from them to even be recognizable.

To be clear I'm not saying you need to know everything from a major mashup like below. Just if it's a big part of the rhythm or recurring and the sample is long like 5s or more.

 
You are a Pedophile or wish you were raped by a pedophile when you were younger, you're also a 30+ BMI and political sperg:
Mr. Kitty, Crystal Castles, Ministry, Mindless Self Indulgence, Scissor Sisters, They Might Be Giants, Marilyn Manson, Sewerslut, Machine Girl, Laibach, Nine Inch Nails, Pastel Ghost, Sidewalks and Skeletons, Health, Streetlight Mannifesto, Tame Impala, Insane Clown Posse, Emily Autumn.

You are a pretentious niggerfaggot or braindead tiktok zoomer who only knows their most popular radio single. You reek and you probably drink light beer:
Have a Nice Life, Flying Lotus, Molchat Doma, KMFDM, Carpenter Brut, Eurythmics, Gotye, Home, I Monster, Interpol, Mareaux, MGMT, Muse, Queen, Radiohead, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Vierre Cloud, Frank Ocean, any pop station top 40 nasally woman.

Quick (and no cheating), name the sample from Fugees - Ready or Not

This is an incredibly autistic opinion and exists solely so you can feel superior to others for knowing a few songs that were sampled by others.

I'm sure there are thousands of very popular songs that sample unknown soul, funk, etc recordings from the 50s and 60s by bands you've literally never heard of but that probably doesn't apply because reasons.
 
I complain about black metal oldfags for being genre purists and hating BM microgenres like DSBM, Blackened crust, etc. All Finnish events like Apocalyptic Rites are run by oldfag purists so its just days of pure raw black metal. I complain, but the "off-brand" Black Metal events are even worse, because they're festering pits of freaks like leftist crusts and actual shitty subgenres like Blackgaze, that is known for "ethereal" vocals aka pixie whispering.

Sorry for being unclear. And yes, I acknowledge I am a bit of a hypocrite.

I complain about My Little Pony old fags for being generation purists and hating fan characters from newer generations like Derpy Hooves. All Finnish MLP events like Ponycon are run by oldfag purists so it's just the days of Generation 1 My Little Pony characters from the 80s. I complain but the "off brand" My Little Pony events are even worse because they're festering pits of freaks like vorefags and actual shitty furries that aren't even My Little Pony at all.

Sorry for being unclear, and yes I admit I am a bit of a hypocrite

Okay, I'm really liking this list, I can see where you're coming fro--
>Nine-Inch Nails, HEALTH, Carpenter Brut, HOME, Queen, Soundgarden

Screw you.
 
Lucky Chops fans are high school baritone saxophonists that won't shut up about Leo Pellegrino.

The vast majority of John Mackey fans are also annoying band kids who soyjak when they listen to Foundry or Night on Fire and only talk about those two pieces.

Classical music fans are either surface level "Mozart is cool :D" people or genuine autists who will scrutinize you for not listening to every single solo piano piece published from someone, I fear both of these people.

Eminem fans want to look cool to black people and subsequently look retarded to all.

Drake fans are creeps.

Weezer fans are depressed virgins who really want a girlfriend and use their shitty music to cope, which is funny because Weezer is only tolerable when they're not whining about women.

Avenged Sevenfold fans are Mexican.
 
Any mid 00 - 2010s mainstream “indie” band. The xx, 1975, Catfish and the Bottleman, Pale Waves plus all those bands with girls that appeal to faux lesbians and creepy men who date girls much younger than them… they just scream I have no personality.
I never heared of any of those bands. also Meg and jack were only pretending to be brother and sister.

I don't know if you guys are old enough to remember this, it was either LastFM or Pandora back in the late 2000's, but Imagine Dragons cut some kind of deal where they had their shit in every tag, including classical music. You couldn't get away from them. That's how I feel about HEALTH with every genre I enjoy. Dudes self-tags as everything and they're the electronic equivalent of a coverband at best. They have a drum machine and don't use it beyond a kickstep beat. Their "remixes" are just homeboy's monotone, froggy soy-drenched wheezing played over baby's first industrial kit. It's fucking audio slop, which is why they put it in Cyberpunk.

Carpenter Brut puts on a great live show, but fuck me man, the only song people link is usually Roller Mobster rolled in with some RWDS Wolf Brigade larp video. It's equally as cringy as the trannies that shlick their rotten gash over Scissor Sister AMVs of Hazbin Hotel.

I would rather kill myself than listen to Bohemian Rhapsody in its entirety ever again. It's more grating than Bicycle. You've got songs that kill it like Don't Stop Me Now, Fat Bottom Girls, and everything with "love" in the title, but that's not what we get.

Trent lost his edge in the 00's when he kicked his heroin habit, like Uncle Al. The movie scores are better than any album released in the past 2 decades.

Soundgarden blends in with the rest of the west coast 90's buttrock. Entire albums flaccid and safe for radio. Just corporate music for corporate people. Home is just like that for terminally online youtube zoomers wishing they didn't grow up in the post-9/11 hellworld. Everyone who's linked me Resonance has also linked me black homosexuals.

I’m upset We’re Finally Landing, When I Get Sick I Vape Chicken Soup, 24 and Hold don’t get enough love compared to Resonance.

The only good expressly leftist Black Metal band is The Meads of Asphodel:

Everything you mentioned ranges from above mediocre to downright terrible:

Re: Red/Anarchist Black Metal (RABM) / Anti-Fascist Black Metal (AFBM). Radical leftist musicians within Black Metal have existed prior to the development of RABM with Argentinian band Profecium releasing music as early as 1994, but the ideology's impact within Black Metal wouldn't be felt until North American Hipsters and Crust Punks developed an interest in Black Metal thanks to the growing relevance of the internet along with niche publications like Vice covering the music. Hyperpoliticization and the rise of internet-based activism during the respective presidencies of Bush, Obama and especially Trump accelerated the development of this specific niche. The first platform for these acts was Myspace with the vast majority having since been forgotten.

To better understand why RABM is such a joke, you have to first understand the reason it exists in in the first place. NSBM acts formed as part of a long, natural development from musicians' collective fascination with blood and soil along with Norse Heathenry whereas RABM has always been a shoehorned reaction to NSBM. Arguably, the first true NSBM band was German act Absurd who, as In Ketten, played covers of RAC/Viking Rock bands Endstufe and Ultima Thule. The infamous "The Night and the Fog" compilation put NSBM on the map, featuring Absurd and several Polish NSBM acts Fullmoon, Gontyna Kry, Graveland, Thor's Hammer, Thunderbolt and Veles. As a matter of fact, NSBM was instrumental to the development of Polish Black Metal as a whole. That NSBM inspired early scenes in certain countries to develop speaks to its staying power.

Perhaps the greatest testament to Nationalism's relevance within Black Metal is the number of Nationalist artists that overwhelmingly outnumber the comparably paltry sum of lefty acts. If you just go onto Metal-Archives advance search feature and separately query common lefty topics in the lyrical themes (Anticapitalis*, Anarch*, Marx*, Communis*, Antifascis*, Antinaz*, Antiracis*, Feminis*, Leftis*, Leftwing) separately along with "Black*" in the genre field, you will get perhaps 200 lefty Black Metal bands at the absolute most if you don't double-count bands. Conversely, entering "Black*" in the genre field and common Nationalist topics in the lyrical themes separately (Aryan*, National Socialism, White Nationalism, Nationalism, Racism, White Supremacy, Tradition*, Fascism) reveal over 900 bands. This figure doesn't even account for Nationalist musicians who keep their politics separate from the music. Of course, there's also the ambiguous "Politics" or "Social issues" category, but even if we assume every band under the ambiguous category of politics is left-wing, that would only give us a grand total of 340 bands when you don't double-count.

RABM is, quite bluntly, a forced meme.
