HEY LAI LA HEY, LAI LA HEY, LAI LA HEY, LA LA LA LA LA

I mean, a lot of the stuff mentioned here I hate too, but I don't really find it distressing. Distressing would indicate it somehow scares me that most kids like to listen to music with dynamic range compression and stupid lyrics. And I don't. They can listen to whatever the fuck they want.

Why I find the use of compression as an easy way to make shit sound artificially loud distressing:

1.) It's destroying the quality of the music I listen to, not just music like Katy Perry.
2.) It's terrible for your hearing.

everything is bad now. Ugh. Can't even control rage enough to comment reasponably. Suffice to say, I'vwe started digging bands I hated in the 70s-80s because I had no idea all other pop music would suck in the future. /a little too harsh //still no jetpack
