What is the worst type of music you ever listened to?

Mine probably be Rap. I can't consider it music almost.

Heavy Metal. It's just banging on drums and screaming at the top of your lungs. I also hate electric guitars.

Just keep that away from me.

My least favorite is... probably country, if I had to pick. But even some of that is pretty good.

Heavy Metal just seems really stupid because there's nothing I find interesting. I could give it a try if you give me some links though.

I like metal, but I don't like screamo metal.. I can stand every kind of music except for screamo, where all I hear is screaming. Heavy rock is fine, as long as I can understand the vocalists, imo.

I really can't stand Dubstep. It gets repetitive after listening to it for like, 10 - 20 seconds, then I get bored of the song / genre, and switch the song, or turn off the stereo or w/e. It got to the point where it really started to bother me.

There are some good metal artists. But screamo and just scene music in general gets on my nerves. >.>
There are some good rap artists as well. Same for country music. However, I'm not too fond of either one.

Dubstep, Rap/Hiphop and Country are easily the worst music in my opinion. Country is tolerable to a point but no one gives a flip about your truck with giant mud tires. Rap is urban country, nobody wants to hear about your 50" rims(Extremely exaggerated I know) on your Cadillac or about how you banged your girlfriend in 10 different ways. Dubstep is just noise. Don't even attempt arguing with me on this, I will not change my opinion.

Everybody is so angry about this here. LOL. I would have to say my least favorite genre of music is Hard Rock, but there is something good in everything, so I give it its fair chance. Just like all types of music. Why ban out music just because you dont like its title. That makes no sense to me.... o.O

I agree! :3 To be honest I love dubstep. I didn't like it at first but I gave it a couple of tries. You just have to find the right artist. If you don't like it I cant stop you guys :P. I say that screamo is (in my opinion) the absolute WORST type of music out there! Who the heck thinks screaming to the top of your lungs is talent? But hey we all have different tastes. :)

Oh boy, I could say so much in this topic.

Let's start with rap. Yes, I understand it's rythmic, and some artists create good lyrics, but since when did lyrics alone make music? Rap isn't my least favourite, but I wish people would stop categorizing it as music, since it is not. It's poetry, really. Besides, you do get good lyricists who actually right music as well (Roger Waters).

Dubstep? Well, that's not music either. It can be pretty cool to watch a cool lighting video or something with some dubstep playing behind it and it can be suitable at certain times, but again, it's just not music.

Screamo. The people who like it are just suckers to the powerful sound it produces. Otherwise, I fail to see why screaming into a microphone and playing the drums as loudly as you can is good music.

I'll just conclude with pop. I know, that's not a specific genre, since the beatles were pop at the time and we know how good they were, but I'm really talking about modern pop. Like wow, at least rap and dubstep don't try to be anything they aren't. The reason it is even popular is because it targets a large audience, and is easy to approach. Simple music, for simple people. No real brains were behind the writing of it, and the lyrics aren't even that great themselves. If you go back to the string quartet era, the people who didn't listen to any music back then would be the people who listen to pop today. Also, any artist who abuses autotune because they can't sing deserves to be shot. That's just flat out cheating and if your music is that simple and you need help from a computer, you really aren't a good artist.

I could say much more, but I don't want to exceed the word limit. That'll do for now.

It's extremely clever, and I don't understand how you can claim it isn't music.

That's a bias that you can't prove.
Well the fact is that more people listen to music nowadays than they used to. So the pop will therefore have to be more general and easily approachable to target the wide audience.

What even categorizes rap as music and not poetry? Poetry does have a faint beat to it, it's just not an obvious part of it. Is it just the noises that go along with the beat in the background?

Can't deny it. If you do, then you're just being ignorant.
So we've established rap and hip hop is music and contains melody.
So where's the argument?

Patriot
06-15-2012, 10:08 PM
Are you people seriously arguing if it's music or not? Well here's the answer: There is no definite answer. The definition of music changes from culture to culture. So in the end, it depends on how you see it. Of course there is already a general definition. When society changes, definitions will be morphed to fit the cultural norms of the time period.

Music is an art form whose medium is sound and silence. Its common elements are pitch (which governs melody and harmony), rhythm (and its associated concepts tempo, meter, and articulation), dynamics, and the sonic qualities of timbre and texture.
It doesn't change from culture to culture. That definition can apply to any and all forms of music.

I mean, it's not built around a melody and harmony.
So, what about Harmony?

For me, lyrics and music are separate. Normally when I listen to a new album I pay no attention to the lyrics no matter how good they are; I just listen to the music itself, and then pick up on the lyrics after more listens. Music is incomplete without harmony, but without lyrics it can still be good. Classical music doesn't have lyrics?

I beg to differ. This "beat" you criticise is in fact the melody and harmony. Every single track has one. It may not have guitar chords but then again, does every song require a guitar to be considered music?
surely you're not going to deny this isn't music? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0O2aH4XLbto)

Then you're not listening to the album properly. You're intentionally ignoring a key part of the song. It wasn't put there for no reason now was it?

I don't deny the fact music can be good without lyrics. However in certain situations, lyrics do their job and enhance it. Classical music doesn't have lyrics because it never needed them; however you may find a lot of compositions developed for opera and choirs.

Going back to rap, the focus is obvious subtended to the lyrics. If we go back to SMJ's dictionary definition, then we can say rap and hip hop are forms of music. Cannot deny that if we follow strict definitions. They contain all the elements required.

That's entirely your personal opinion. It does not contribute anything to deciding whether or not it is music. It's not my fault or anyone else's you prefer to not listen to lyrics.

That's the greatest thing to come out of dubstep though. I don't even think the creator was going for a legit song, I think that he was trying to make fun of dubstep. Dubstep isn't that bad though. I like it more when the artist focuses more on the song than "LOL SIK DROP DUDE XDDDDDDDDD ITS SO LONG AND LOUD AND EPICZ". Which is why I can actually *listen* to Skrillex.

Country is simply boring and slow. It's the kind of music that will make you want to rip your hair out if you lsten to it too long.
Heavy Metal is basically just "DADADADADAHDHSJCHFH" even if it's like the very beginning of the song...
Rap is pretty much accents, and poetry. It's not exactly music (please don't get me involved in that argument) and that's that.

In all honesty, metal and trance are my favorites.

But what I truly hate. Is this whole emo/scene style. One band I absolutely hate is Blood on the Dancefloor.

Also, most heavy metal artists does not "scream". It's not "screamo" when it comes to that. It's "Growling". That's what's it called when the singer sings in a voice that sounds nearly like a monster, and you can't hear the lyrics. I personally, love growling.
