First off, I wouldn't call Doom Metal to Black Metal a large range; perhaps Rachmaninoff and Belphegor to Tony Braxton and the Subhumans. Secondly, Black Sabbath is classic rock. Yes, they have slow down-tuned progressions that influenced Doom Metal, but they are still classic rock. Finally, teenager's music is not terrible. It is different. The Golden Generation hated the Beatles that their children listened to, the Baby Boomers hated grunge that their children listened to, and Gen-Xs hated hip-hop and what the Millennials listen to. That is part of growing up. The fact that you don't like teenager's music is just a sign that you are getting older.

Why do you care what music other people listen to? :|
I for one don't care for rap at all. I'm still not going around telling that it's shit.

Different kinds of music for different kinds of people.

Wasn't it Heavy/Doom Metal?



Wikipedia and other sites might seem informative, but at Metal Archives are the real elitists. They know what is metal, what is not, and what type of metal it is.

Red herring, basically drifting away. Who am I to determine that? First off I am 19 (legally adult, still in my teen years) secondly, again, Most= not all =greatest in amount or degree. Thread title is a question, you abhor the fact it could may very well be written in an insular sense, If I am generalizing, by basically saying "all teenagers" have bad taste, than I would be rigidly generalizing, it's blatantly obvious at this point, If you think that my purpose is to generalize, meaning I'm implying that "all" have bad taste, than feel free to bash me. I made that claim, because apparently 1. It would be true, why? Because in numbers, it's mostly the teenage audience who are exposed and listen to such music, meaning "most" in a greater degree or numbers.

I have clearly stated, listen to whatever you want, Just don't go around dissing my fav bands and then claiming "I have the best taste in music" because apparently they just recently discovered 2 underground bands/rappers.



I think I am basically asking a question, based on experience, I think you can tell that? And I think I have the right to address whatever I want, no matter how much you might disagree. You have the right to disagree. I respect that.



You literally just said "if you thinks it bad, it might not be bad" Like come on..

And people fanboy/fangirl this, there are literally many stuff out there like this, I'm sure you know. 85% are teens.

Music is an art, and really what is this?
I linked you to a website that proved you are generalizing.If you press ctrl G on your browser and type in most on that website you would find it. So I'm "red herring" but the people talking about jimmies aren't.You keep trying to make an asinine opinion a fact...Yea..But like you stated earlier I'm "fail". I'm done.XD

I already explained everything How I never meant it in a broad sense, also this is a bait thread which flew threw my mind and created from boredom, Ironically, pleasure obtained via music is varied, and even more between men and women. Diclonious would also be spot on with his post.

This would be Appeal to Authority, where you assume just because something has a lot of reputation for knowing a lot on a subject, that what they would say is immediately true.

This dismisses nothing, however. Black Sabbath is still widely debated to as if their earlier albums were hard rock or heavy/doom metal, originating from the fact that many bands classified as Hard Rock during that era could have easily passed as Heavy Metal as well.

It's pretty much a given that popular music isn't necessarily good music, just like fashion doesn't really indicate what looks good.

There are plenty of teens that have distinct tastes in music. I always find it interesting to see the age range of people at say, a Rush concert: 12-65+

Personal tastes can grow over time to accept the best of the new and disregard the pop stuff that most people bandwagon.

I am not the one to say that whole new gen is garbage or new music is shitty... I do not like "i am only 6 months old but i listen to The Doors hurr" kiddos which youtube comment section floods with either. Even most of teenagers who listen "good stuff" are ignorant bumhurt hipsters who think they are special.

Thread reminded me of this song, for several reasons:

One of the legendary bands like Accept dishes out something like this, but does not even have 40.000 viewers? Yet kids complain there is no good stuff nowadays. There is, both from old musicians and new ones. I do enjoy bands like Volbeat or Imagine Dragons, which are pretty good and relatively young (infact latter is quite popular) but older guys still do stuff and we can luckily witness them.

People just don't bother to search and just complain. Forget what mainstream media brings or who they give a damn award. St Anger won Grammy at some point, like the hell? No need to complain about how invalid thise awards are, they had been like that for years.

This was not directed to you OP btw, but just saying. Eveytime has it goods and bads. Let people do what they like and do what you want.
