Give me a stereotype of any genre of music and I will post a song that breaks it.

[TheLaofKazi]

Techno is a load of repetitive beats and samples.

This is an exception.

Here you go.

EDIT: Oh never mind, you fixed it yourself.

 

[Ironic Pirate]

Would it be cheating to try and trick you into finding me good music?

Here goes, Metal is NOT clean, maybe slightly rough vocals over heavy, distorted guitars with fairly simple but awesome riffs.

There!

 

[Casts a Shadow]

All metal has guitars in it.

Thats not metal.

Are you kidding? Fine, just take that band as a whole. They play metal music with Cellos, Drums and Vocals. Google their brains out, you'll see.

*Googles Apolyptica*

Woah, I didnt know Cello Metal existed

You're welcome


Oh, and "Brokencyde" is only a touch worse than...

CRABCORE!!!

This thread amuses me greatly!
Ok, here's mine: all country songs are a) about spreading conservative values (you know, Jeebus, cowboy life, simplicity of country life, marriage, etc), b) animal molestation, or c) both.

Stereotype retracted. Well done sir, well done

[Kaptajn Emil Alfred Conan Swagga Benzon]

Death metal is just mindless screaming into a microphone

Actually a lot of death metal is just as complex, sometimes even more complex, than jazz/bebop.

Example: Necrophagist - Stabwound

- B

 

[Stevo_s]

Modern day mainstream music sucks.

I would agree with you but well:
not all of it :]

Death Metal - Clean vocals - You lose.

 

[phoenix_tetsu]

Abba's music is very, very, very gay (I never had the time or intention to listen to Abba's discography... however, I'm pretty sure their music is gayer than a pink parasol)

 

[Sporky111]

Brokencyde's "genre" sucks
Do I get a cookie?

BrokeNCYDE sucks, yes. But I prefer Breathe Carolina.

I can do that.

[Uber Evil]

Probabably one of the "truer" artists of the decade. His newer stuff is definately more pop/club directed but his first album is honesty incarnate. Currently 11th highest rated on Metacritic.

I couldn't get through 5 seconds of that without experiencing extreme anger.

Well, that is an opinion, not a stereotype, but I'd like to give this a shot.

All different styles. All very mainstream. All made within the last 3 years.

Yeah I could make out some words, but were they really saying anything? No.

 

[MetalMachine]

Possibly ninja'd, but death metal is devil worshiping music...

Christian music is talentless and focuses more on getting their message across by adopting a generic "cool" style for brainwashing the youth than actually developing their own unique sound and having talent.

Metal is all in drop C.

I'd be disappointed if you didn't think this was awesome, or at least funny.

Andy Rehfeldt is here to save the day!

It's not a stereotype if it's your opinion. It's hardly music to pump up a testosterone-fueled teen (which I'm assuming you are, since you're using "gay" as an adjective) but how are you to know without listening to it?

 

[vivalahelvig]

mainstream music of today sucks so much balls its just....BAWLZ...unless the words are replaced with heavy sound clips.

I actually bought that album a few days ago, but thanks anyway.

As it is, the stereotype is backwards. The stereotype is that gay men are the only people who still enjoy ABBA, or disco generally.

I got this one:

 

[Vicarious Vangaurd]

All of Daft Punk's songs could have the phrase "Around the World" put into it and it would fit.

It wouldn't fit into Technologic or Veridis Quo. But then again the phrase could be put in every song ever made. (as long as we aren't talking the same rhythm and sound to the words)
