I’m not saying particular genres, we all have our less desired musical genres, I mean music in general.

When I was a child I was very confident to say that I hated music, all kinds, and my cousin used to say that was not possible.

Turns out he was right, and I only hated the teenage music my sister from the 90s used to listen to.

Secretly I enjoyed soundtracks and OSTs from several media, such as animes (digimon openings and battle themes for example) and some TV shows or even videogames.

Then my taste “evolved” and pretty much stayed at rock, heavy metal and alike.

So that little memory lane inspired me to ask about this.

    Music was much better when I was younger and more emotionally vulnerable.

    I also like music from before my time, when they used to let ugly people make it.

    It’s complicated.

      Reconsider that statement. Outside of top40 there’s no shortage of unattractive artists making amazing music. Music has always ranged from bad to good and ugly to attractive in about the same proportion

      Are you implying only cute or handsome people do “music” nowadays? Because that is not true at all.

      Dude the internet exists. You’re on it now. It’s not hard to find shit you enjoy if you put some time into it. Find a local scene. Enjoy music.

      Um… You know there’s millions of indie artists who are ugly making just what you are looking for, right? I listen to music all day, hardly any of it mainstream. Most of the really popular stuff is worse than a lot of the independent or small label stuff you’ll find.
