Then it's cringeworthy, like the topic title says. Those types who brag about not knowing new artists like it's an accomplishment are cringeworthy, sure, but I just don't follow popular music and I'm not saying that like it's necessarily a good thing that I don't. I just don't. I'm in my 30s and just like what I like. I have nothing really against popular music. It's just not for me. How is that cringeworthy or a problem somehow? --- https://imgur.com/hslUvRN When I sin I sin real good. ... Copied to Clipboard!

You'll find, as you get older, that not letting your tastes calcify is something that takes some effort.This. It's a real struggle, too. With that being said, the majority of shit pumped out by garbage apps like SoundCloud is straight up not worth anyone's time. --- "If you cannot explain it simply, you do not understand it well enough."-Albert Einstein ...

For one thing, "pointless noise" is just a generic insult for shit you're not into, there's very little in even the most extreme forms of metal that doesn't have riffs, clear patterns to the vocals, rather than just random banging around. Beyond that though it's not like extreme metal is the only type that has existed since the early 90s, pretty much every sub-genre has been alive and relatively well at pretty much all times.

There have always been stuck-up bitches in music circles acting like new/different music personally fucked them in the butt and killed their children. Rock vs Disco is one of the most famous examples of this, "mass-produced dance music for brain-dead morons to dance to like zombies" vs "excellent riffs and lyrics that tackle unjust social norms for the revolutionaries". Nevermind the rock music that was total trash and the disco music that was pretty good, and the subtext of disco/dance/funk music stemming from black musicians and being popular with non-straight, non-white crowds. Rock fans also picked on grunge, hair metal and metalcore as weaker substitutions for rock music as their own "pure" genre slowly slid further into the shitter.
The problem with some fart-brained boomer shitting on modern music they don't like is that there is music they'd probably like if they looked for it. They just don't, either because they expect it to be served to them on a silver plate or because they find the prospect of milking this year's Lil Xan for jokes a more appealing process. There's a real sense of entitlement and narcissism to people who take a position of "this music is indicative of society's decline!" - it's annoying, and the people who engage with that are fucking morons. Old heads are fucking cringe when it comes to modern music for the most part. This came out a week ago and I think it fucks. Boomer music fans can either seek shit like this out, or they can get laughed down for doing yet another mumble rap takedown by comparing Lil Xan to Pink Floyd or whatever the fuck. https://youtu.be/lkZd2lBQb2c --- I can feel it in my bones, I'm gonna spend another year alone.

When it comes down to it older gens always hate on new things younger people enjoy. Readinf was frowned upon by adults once. Then tv then video games. I laugh at tv/movie people who look down on video games though cause video games now days are kinda like tv/movies but you somewhat control it and it requires some level of thinking/decision making abilities reflexes etc. So they are hating on something that requires more skill than their hobby basically.

That said Jacob Collier isnt a great songwriter IMO, but he can do everything else and does have some good ones. I feel like he's in his ADHD creative phase, where he has all of this insane precocious talent but he's just throwing it all out in every song like he has creativity tourettes or something. I'm interested to see how he matures and learns to slow down and just write a song. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. https://imgur.com/ILz2ZbV ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's a cycle. Growing up I had to deal with older people telling me my music wasn't music, or nitpicking everything about it trying to criticize it and how back in their day it was better. Now I see people my age saying the younger gens music is trash and ours is better, and im sure that gen will do the same when they get older.

counterpoint: the internet had already been mainstream for like a decade by the mid-2000s, so it was not hard to find great lesser known music thenThere were gems of course, but as far as popular music goes: Rap and pop were probably at their worst. A step down compared to the 90s, but they would improve a lot by the end of the decade and now are better than ever. Rock was mostly Numetal or pop punk, which dont really hold up and are only really listened to ironically now. I listened to a lot of metal at the time, but that genre is practically dead. ...
