Ear-rape
I try to keep an open mind with music, I really do. But there's some stuff that is just god awful. Case in point - Brokencyde. I'll even post a video just so everyone can see that I'm not just talking out of my ass - this stuff really is bad: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qa6qpgLvH30. Man is this stuff terrible. It's like some twisted love child between screamo and dance that they like to call "punk crunk." I'm calling for euthanasia on this stuff, seriously. The dance music that they use, with smooth beats and heavy synth, completely conflicts with the vocals which pierce through the music abruptly and without contributing anything to the overall sound. There's no musicality present at all, it seems like a bunch of kids got together to scream over some beats. Now don't get me wrong, it's fun to make fun of, but I could never, EVER listen to it as music.

Word. Can't argue with you this stuff sucks. I also can't see any talent in this because it doesn't mix at all. Nothing else much to say but good example.
ReplyDeleteSam I totally agree with you. I try to find the beauty in all music and I have to say its very difficult to find any with this piece. This is really bad, and your vivid descriptions of "ear rape" are spot on.
ReplyDeleteNice piece!
This is garbage! I can't even imagine how someone could make something like this. You're right, the vocals don't match the music at all.
