Distressing trends in modern pop music
Thrillho:
One of the only good things about my brief time working at Co-Op was that Co-Op radio was surprisingly awesome.
Lummer:
Oh man, I had it easy in my past few jobs, especially the last one before going to uni.
I had an iPod radio in the reception where I sat, and I could decide for myself what to listen to, more or less. Of course, if I had something brutal on I'd turn it down when customers came in, but still. I listened to so much Tom Waits and shit like that, it was incredible, and if I did want pop radio I could just flick it on and turn it off when I tired of it.
IDMG:
I work in an office on my own computer so I just plug in headphones and Spotify all day
Patrick:
it isn't even just at work. if I wanna go do anything in any indoor public place aside from the coffee shop where my bandmate works, I get the same horse dick shoved down my throat.
something I just noticed while in conversation with Gaz re: Rihanna's "We Found Love": square wave upward sliding synth with a syncopated staccato attack, usually playing triplets or thereabouts. Jesus fucking Christ that is the most cliche sound effect you can fucking put in a song, and it's literally painful to my ears. God, I cringe just thinking about it. That cannot possibly be good for your hearing.

Previous reply was pretty much just getting pissed at how everything seems to go that way. I had a radio station I would listen to a lot because it was an actual Rock station and played nothing but that. It was a way to get away from all of the "normal" stations but recently they've turned into a folk-like station.. they rarely play any more rock music. (Rock as in Korn, Linkin park, Limp Bizkit and the such.. there was a lot more different artists, but those are just the ones I remember.
When I said metal/industrial radio station, I meant like an actual FM station or something of that nature. Luckily, at work I'm essentially the only one in the office and I have a streaming media server at home so I get to listen to my own metal/industrial radio station :)
