Poptimism

It lasted about as long as most forms of popular music, which is 5 years on average.

So why isn't dubstep dead yet?

9/11

it is

>you will never be 8 years old and listen to Disturbed for the first time in 1999 ever again

cuz wayne static took to many drugs

kek

Because it's an awful genre

what are you talking about

dead in this context means culturally irrelevant

it doesn't mean one kid still posting fl studio audio dumps on soundcloud so it's still alive

This. And it called itself metal.

>tfw a good friend of yours still religiously listens to Slipknot and Disturbed

edms peaked my dude

>Slipknot and Disturbed
>in 2016

So what's the new thing now?

I usually just listen to deep house or lounge beats these days

Classic metal sucks even more

tropical house probably until someone comes out with a big indietronica song

think fireflies by owl city with a dance beat

That man's hair

It's like a generic, over-designed anime protagonist got struck by a bolt of lightning

>pepe
>2016

There's nu-numetal

>pepe is 11 years old
>jack black was on YGG 7 years ago

How can you post that shit and not kill yourself? Is this satire?

It was called The Postal Service

It hasn't; have you heard the new Machine Head? it makes me want to vomit.

soad was the only half decent NM band and that's because they actually pushed the envelope.

Most of what we think of as nu metal was 2000-2005.

Deftones

I suppose, always thought of them as more grunge/alt rock though. With Pearl Jam and that whole crowd

Shitty melodic metalcore replaced it

Which is bad because metal is the worst genre.

Not nu metal. They always had a distinctly slower, sharper edge than that.

There's plenty of good metal. It's all either very inaccessible (the extreme stuff) or literally pop music with distortion (power metal etc). The shit stuff is the tryhard edgy stuff, the buttrock, the trve kvlt black metal made by neckbeards, and the endless sea of good cop/bad cop vocals.

Because it fell... Down with the sickness
BADUN TSS

>you will never be in middle school and picking fights because you listened to Down with the Sickness too many times again

Because Slipknot couldn't carry the whole genre on its back while only releasing an ablum every 4 or 5 years

Not to mention getting progressively shittier with each passing album...

What made Slipknot good at first was the rawness and unbridled hate and frustration behind the music. As soon as it got tepid and clean it fell flat.

Over saturation and the fact that this isn't a very good genre.
Not that o hate it but its not very good or interesting

SKIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
NEEEEEEEEEE
MAAAAAAAAAAANNNN
