What are your thoughts on the state of current music? Or any old bands? Any subgenres that are tickling your fancy? Or is your favorite band behaving weirdly? Any and all music discussion welcome here.

No. 319723

I fall in and out of pop music every few years, but I haven't found any new pop stars that at least make fun music. Local radio doesn't even play new pop hits anymore, all my top 40 stations have pivoted to being nostalgia stations. I can't tell if this is because streaming and tiktok have made "stars" too niche to be appreciated across a broad audience or not. But I've noticed nobody really has any idea of what the Billboard Hot 100 is anymore. I just checked it and Taylor Swift's "Cruel Summer" is at number 4. That's a song released in 2019, why is it charting now? Eras tour? Tiktok? The idea of a national pop music culture feels dead with how random the songs that chart are and with so few good contenders for future pop stars.

Indie music isn't doing much better with even acts like Animal Collective not being able to tour due to inflation. If indie acts can't make money off CDs or touring, I don't know how or if they're going to be able to survive. What is going on with music? Is there any hope for local scenes? Or are we in the bleh age of music where there are few national discourses and no local scenes?

I'm really late to the party I know but I just started listening to the cure and love their disintegration album. especially lovesong - I've had it on repeat often lately.
also I've been discovering old vkei bands that I never bothered listening to until recently. luna sea, la'cryma christi, malice mizer, the gazette, monolith, alice nine, maximum the hormone (well I guess they are just metal and not vkei) - I can't believe I was missing out on all this music and a lot of the bands are broken up or getting too old to tour so there is no chance of seeing them live.

Interesting, I didn't know AnCo weren't able to tour, they used to be one of my favorites and I've seen them live a few times. Did they say that somewhere they couldn't afford it? To me, it's just the state of most industries nowadays, inflation is rapidly fucking up people who have genuine artistic merit and new ideas because record companies/radio/promoters are looking for that quick hit (aka Tiktok music) just to stay relevant. As for local scenes you usually have to be connected through social groups to find them but they do exist. Also depends where you are. I've lived around a few "music" cities that were teeming with musicians. Where I live now there are no concert venues for small acts, the best I can hope for is going to an open mic and that isn't always original music. But back to your point about surviving - the musicians who are relatively underground have been underpaid forever. I'd guess most play out of sheer enjoyment and a desire to share music. It sucks but I'm not sure how else we can individually encourage indie artists other than buying their music/merch/promoting online.

>>319768
Same here, I never listened to The Cure but recently listened to Disintegration and adored it. It actually made me emotional and I tend to steer away from music like that. I feel like I either have to sit completely still and close my eyes to enjoy it, and most of the time when I listen to music I'm doing other things, so I can't listen too closely. Working or cleaning up while listening to someone pour their heart out just doesn't feel right.

I used to listen to music like that, especially Disintegration, by dancing and singing along in my bedroom. I had a record player now I have a better one downstairs. I should start doing that again. You should try their album Pornography it isn’t quite as good though, in my opinion. It is similar, however.

Why is it so easy for people to put female artists against each other? Saw some people on Rate your Music talking about all female Japanese math rock band Paranoid Void by comparing them to… another mostly female Japanese math rock band, tricot, and saying “they deserve all of tricot’s fame.” There’s no reason to compare these bands as paranoid void make instrumental math rock and tricot make poppy math rock. The only thing they have in common is the demographic of being Japanese women. It’s such a transparent way to pit women against each other when you can just listen to both.

Japan has a huge number of female bands for some reason, so there’s plenty of room to appreciate them. Paranoid void, tricot, lovebites, ars nova, and bandmaid fit into this description but they’re musically very different. It’s like comparing Joni Mitchell and Kate Bush because they’re solo female singer songwriters.

Personally, something that's really pissing me off in music circles is the defending of electronic music/edm and DJs and pretending they have real talent compared to someone who can actually play a real instrument or can sing or can write music and understands music theory. The sound of most edm/electronic music out there screams lack of talent and understanding of music kek.

It's better in some genres than others, but I do think that the repetitive nature of some EDM limits the amount of interesting music theory stuff you can do. There's a lot more focus on timbre, structure, and sound design than on more complex harmonic structures, going beyond 4/4 is rare. And because enjoying EDM live has to do with DJs, who need to make your music blend in with other tracks from other artists, there's not much incentive to go beyond the BPM and time signature standard to your genre. But I'm sure as with every genre there are more experimental and advanced people making music meant to be listened to in your home.

Is anyone else really picky about music and cowriters? Nowadays I just don't want to put up with having a song that has the singer on it and then three other dudes as cowriters. I'm way more interested in music that's written entirely by a band or by just one solo songwriter. It's disappointing to get into an artist only to find out what you really liked was their cowriter and not them.

Recently 3(!) members of my favourite visual kei bands died, so I decided that I have to start going to concerts in order to not feel even more regret.
In spring Dir en Grey is coming to my country, so I thought I'm gonna go no matter what, despite being alone. Turns out the city they'll perform in is 10 hours away from there I live, on a work day…

I also tried checking out concerts in my city, especially of female bands, but it's all just either big pop musicians or rock/metal cover bands, like I saw at least 10 Rammstein copycats. And the only female artists are fat middle-aged ladies calling themselves some name with "chicks" and also only cover Aerosmith or similar old classics.

I don't have any social media so I have no idea about that, but do smaller more alternative acts sell their tickets via other sites (meaning not ticketmaster or eventim) or does such a scene simply not exist there I live? I really have no clue where to start

I wonder if he’s trying to cultivate a new aesthetic so his fans won’t constantly ask him to go back to the Trilogy dark r&b sound when he clearly just wants to make 80s synth pop (and it’s what audiences want too).

Lady Gaga released an album of covers for the Joker movie. More of her jazz and traditional pop music stuff. She sounds good but like she has a cold sometimes. I'm glad she's having fun with it and does her little jazz projects that aren't gonna be commercially successful. I didn't like either of the two songs she wrote for it but maybe they'll grow on me. I did like the rock version of the Joker so I'm holding out hope she'll keep that direction for the new album.

Rock is in a really horrible slump right now, i don't think a lot of artists would ever consider taking the risk touching it even if they could potentially make the record of the career from it. That's why i don't really rely on mainstream pop stars much for being supplied with great body of works, i only stick to singles. I felt the same way upon my first few listens of eusexua. the fact that the music video had another song spliced into it kind of threw me off, so listening to the official single on spotify was the way to go. I actually like it a lot, i am a huge fan of Magdalene and the song indicated that she will continue in that direction, so i am incredibly excited for her new album. I also liked the single with two shell called talk to me, it had to grow on me. There's also a version that is more emotional with pinkpantheress which i think is the first version of the song, but it's £1,000 on bandcamp for some insane reason. Apparently you could buy it for £1 at one point but idk what kind of stunt they are pulling.

To throw in a recommendation for some music, i've been obsessed with lafawndah lately, this particular song is incredibly reminiscent of bjork. Just incase you google her, she nuked her instagram because she is in a new project, i haven't really looked into it though. Also thought to recommend more music by female artists:
Rozie Ramati - Blank page
Purient - memories (Eartheater remix)
Yseult - Suicide

Kida - His Altar of Silence

This companion album sounded ok. I like both the Joker cover and Happy Mistakes. The jazzy songs are nice, not something I'd listen to often but she's technically very skilled in that and it's good to hear. I agree that she sounds nasal at times but that's been her style of singing for a while.

But the vibe is so different this time around and I'm glad that her song with bruno mars and the the jazz joker album are well received.

I thought she was gonna quit music to go full time into acting after Chromatica. Her heart didn’t seem in it and she was using more outside songwriters than ever before. It’s encouraging she has two original songs on the Harlequin soundtrack, hopefully she got the fire for writing music back!

I go to concerts on weekdays a lot because visits to my location usually happen on weird dates (if they happen at all), but I don’t mind. Stay hydrated through the night and go straight to bed when you get back. If you want and are able to, take the next day off. Who do you want to see?

Even all female rock bands tend to have mostly male audiences. I know Mitski did indie rock for one of her albums and she has a big young female audience but I think she stopped that whole style for her recent audiences. It makes me sad because I’d love to have more young women making rock music but I guess it’s how it all played out.

Yeah, maybe she had a couple of ideas but that "era" was destroyed by covid as well. It felt like she was influenced by her producer a lot (she said this in concerts too) and the by fact that the retro dance style was in vogue when it came out. The Stupid Love video wasn't great even quality-wise because iirc she had to have iphone as sponsor so it was shot on an iphone. She really came around a bit later for 911 (which I think is great) and the Chromatica Ball, you can see that her vision changed a lot there and became something more personal. We're getting a single this month and I can't wait!

Tired of the constant SOPHIE dicksucking. His debut EP and album were really not that great and his music with Charli XCX was okay and only some of it was even released. Everyone talks about how influential he was but nobody can name a good song by him. Even when I was a handmaiden I thought that “it’s okay to cry” song was ass.

Makes me glad I don't like this kind of music. While they have plenty of their own issues, I doubt I'm ever going to see the kind of alternative rock scrotes I listen to dickride this Literal Who dead troon. Or any of the rappers I like, for that matter. It's mostly faghags and EDM dorks trying to virtue-signal about "Sophie," online. Carrot-top-looking-ass.

honestly I prefer concerts in the middle of the week because it's easier to ask off work for them. It also seems that the crowds are more chill instead of the partying people that are just looking for something to do on a weekend, which for me is a plus but maybe it'd be a downside and would kill the vibe for some genres

I was literally just thinking about how Sabrina Carpenter's music is some of the blandest pop music I've ever heard. When I hear a song of hers I can't even tell which one it is right away because they all sound the same, then I saw this video, her song espresso is made with a royalty free guitar loop

I'm still a little mystified as to who her target audience is meant to be. Unrelated but was listening to vidrel as it's a guilty pleasure of mine and I was wondering if "bicore" could ever exist as a music genre? Not like troon music shit but stuff like this and I Kissed a Girl.

Lady Gaga will release her new single on the 25th and it's called Disease. I must say I like that she didn't push the release date due to the Joker 2 flop (in which she wasn't the worst thing, but you know artists are quick to back out when they have a flop) and so far I like the general aesthetic that she's going for. Some say this is the Abracadabra song that was teased in Paris and a couple of leakers are saying it's something similar to Paparazzi or Government Hooker and Scheibe. I wish it's something crazy and experimental because her safe pop songs aren't the best imo.

Modern music is such trash. It used to be amazing. I'm not even saying this as a boomer, its just true, there used to be more rock influence in the late 90s and early 2000s for example. Back then everything was solid gold. Now music just reminds me of the cheap soulless crap i see in dollar general and walmart.

I don't even care much about her cause her music isn't my taste but lyrically this song feels very straight to me. Is it mostly fictionalised or something? It would be unlikely for a woman to continue to pursue another woman after she was publicly turned down. That's moid behaviour for sure. But then again, what reason would a man have to hide pics of his gf unless they were nudes? Maybe I'm overanalysing.

Thoughts on Sevdaliza's current stuff? This one is really good but the one with Pablo Vittar (Brazilian tranny) sucks major ass. His voice is genuinely ugly btw and it's so obvious that he's some kind of industry plant or diversity hire.

>how noise music works
essentially it's just noise or "unconventional"/"unwanted" sounds arranged by the performer how they'd like it to be, the difference from conventional music is that you're experimenting more and that there's no strict ban on unpleasant sounds of any kind.
>what the appeal is
i don't know kek, personally i just like it because it's mostly heavily abstract. other people like it for the texture (hnw enjoyers) / storytelling (power electronics/death industrial/black noise) / experimentation freedom (not all noise music is experimental, but it often is)

>>430754
>That video just sounds like the machine broke
broken (or circuit-bent) machines and power starved electronics can be part of the performance/recording for sure, adding to the experimental stuff of it.

Someone gave a good answer already but I am quite into some subgenres of noise so thought I'd share my opinion. I listen to mostly power electronics, death industrial & such. I like it because of how it creates a textured and interesting soundscape, the storytelling like the other anon said through the use of samples, and I also like art that deals with transgressive themes which is particularly common in the power electronics subset of noise where a lot of artists talk about suicide, murder, pedophilia, war, perversion & paraphilia, so on and whatever. I think that pure noise can convey emotion very well, on a visceral level that music with lyrics, a conventional structure, and a focus on just "sounding good" can't do in the same way. Negative emotions and experiences are ugly and need an ugly outlet. I hate shitty mass-circulated quotes like this but a lot of fringe corners of noise music are a good example of art disturbing the comforted and comforting the disturbed.
