Silly Genres

<< < (6/6)

Micolithe:
Diner core is a special new jersey thing that we have. Bad songs about grilled cheese and smoke filled booths open 24 hours.

YoungGrassHopper:
Screamo.

yes, I'm old and out of touch, and this may even be spelled incorrectly, but I heard a guy in a cafe discussing sub-genres of emo, (which by itself makes me want to claw at my eyes and wail to an unforgiving God), but the fact that he could say he was a big fan of "Screamo" with a completely straight face blew me away.

It may even be completely viable (hee hee hee) but it just sounds silly. It's like if Metallica was called "Mr. Pilkington's Happy-Time family Hour Band". They might still rock, but it would just be .....silly.

öde:
Apart from the occasional screaming, I really like my friends screamo band.

And is christmas music a genre? If so, kill it now!

Garcin:
Vince Guaraldi's A Charlie Brown Christmas for the win.  It is literally the only Christmas album I have ever heard that I enjoyed and would willingly listen too.  But yah, the rest of those fucking songs that they inundate you with in every mall in the country are inexplicably horrible.

dancarter:
okay:

minimalist electroclash: in reference to the new vnv nation album.

nu-goth: uh...what?  and anything else with nu- as a prefix, for that matter.  enough already.

powernoise: sounds funny, but the name is really appropriate.  bands like iszoloscope, antigen shift, most any on the frozen empire media label.

deathpop: re: orgy, zeromancer, etc.  again, funny but fitting(at least in the case of the latter band)

shoegazer: fitting yes, but a little insulting, i guess.  kind of like making bartholomew the patron saint of shoemakers because he ws killed by having his skin removed.

coldwave: the defintion kills me as it's so contradictory: "highly technical mechanical percussion with the angst and energy of punk rock"...or something to that effect.  and the name started out as a joke.  blame the invisible records people.
