Music of the 2020’s

In this thread, we predict what the next decade might hold for us in terms of music, for good or for bad.

>Metal goes through a “back-to-basics” phase inspired by Black Sabbath, Deep Purple or what have you.
>Punk rock comes back out of nowhere for seemingly no reason, but brings with it new techno and industrial influences.
>People in the mainstream get tired of trap-rap, leading to old-school style rap to get popular.
>Pop with increasingly weird and off-kilter instrument choices are commonplace.
>Obscure samples of the 2010’s are replaced with impossible-to-find samples in the 2020’s, sometimes coming right out of the deep web.
>As a natural continuation of the 80’s nostalgia of the 2010’s, hair metal comes back and everyone laughs.
>2000’s nostalgia becomes more widespread, and pop stars from that era come back with varying success.

maybe future artists will seek to make their music entirely devoid of political influences as a response to 10's intense social politics climate

...

most of that is just a bunch of retro revival rehashing and the sad thing is that youre probably right.

This will probably end up true, there’s only so many times neurotypicals will want to hear “Trump is bad” in their pop songs before they get tired of it.
Some politically-charged stuff would probably slip through the cracks, though, but if it does, it’ll probably be conservative bands trying their hardest to anger liberals like some sort of weird reverse Sex Pistols.

As awful as that sounds you prolly right.

All of this is basically happening right now though.

The 70’s style metal doesn’t sound too bad.
Hair metal coming back would be equal parts hilarious and horrifying, though.

what do you mean? trash-rap is still popular and i’m pretty sure hair metal didn’t crawl back from the dead

>Rock musicians want to make “rock music of the future” and so pedals like this are spammed into the ground.
