bloodhound gang mostly gets a pass cuz they obviously don't take themselves seriously.

i'd put avril in the same category as katy perry in that she relies heavily on her producers. her "edgy 13-year-old suburban punk rawk chick" gimmick is boring but whatever.

this is a great explanation of why I'm really apprehensive about writing guitar-centric music atm:

Suzuki Method
Mar 12, 2012


oh my god all these years i legitimately thought this was sung by a girl

like it was just background noise whenever it came on, so i never payed attention to the lyrics beyond the chorus. itd be obvious from the lyrics but it sure as gently caress is not from the sound


also, i blame franz ferdinand for the apple store indie generation of music. arctic monkeys and whatnot. just generic 'kinda retro and british!!!' all over the loving radio here in canada.

You could write a song about coming out of the closet, a man seducing another man, or one that describes same sex oral sex in graphic detail and it wouldn't come close to being as gay as Fireflies by owlcity.

mumford n sons is generic
a lot of british bands sound the samey too

Nickelback is like well-rounded terrible, but nothing is quite as horrifically and musically offensive as a white guy singing the lyric "hey soul sista" in falsetto

At least you can follow what a Nickelback song is saying. Train just spouts inefficient gibberish for 3 minutes then loop it over a car commercial.
