Oh my fucking god I just wanted to say how otherworldly bad music is right now (pop has always been stupid to varying levels but oh my fucking god they have raised the stakes). I just listened to a bunch of pop tracks from various genres and I literally think I'm about to die. Rock, country, indie, folk, hipster white rap, whatever you call home, is aggressively bad. It's like Walmart made a gun that can shoot cum and blood and piss and shit and puke into your soul. We are so fucking fucked. I want to saw my own head off.
This take sounds like someone who listens to video game soundtracks exclusively.
Just saying it's one of the takes of all time.
There's more music in the world than you can listen to in your lifetime.

Try harder lmao, those are 4 random bands my bf showed me in the last month alone and none of them are basic/slop/mid/manufactured garbage. Just people venting themselves into sound and it's so good.
Stop being a grump
