Oh my fucking god I just wanted to say how otherworldly bad music is right now (pop has always been stupid to varying levels but oh my fucking god they have raised the stakes). I just listened to a bunch of pop tracks from various genres and I literally think I’m about to die. Rock, country, indie, folk, hipster white rap, whatever you call home, is aggressively bad. It’s like Walmart made a gun that can shoot cum and blood and piss and shit and puke into your soul. We are so fucking fucked. I want to saw my own head off.
Revisiting this after sleeping more and yeah, sorry for the temp lock. I see people in my inbox saying to keep it up, so keep it up we will.
Boomer ass take and I’m nearly 40 lol
You: despairing that the top 5 tracks on Spotify are soulless garbage
Me: clicking random folders on random soulseek accounts and finding nothing but bangers
When I see this I chuckle. You’re your parents now. ‘music was only good in my generation.’
Musics always been good and inventive if you look deep enough. They had king crimson, we had mars volta, and the kids have closures in Moscow. They had a tribe called quest, we had little brother, and the kids have Costa contra. Don’t be stagnant.
Every single generation has reached the age where they say “music was better in my day” and they’re always wrong.
Chappel Roan is the best thing to happen to pop music since ABBA
