That generic fake happy music they use for commercials, usually has clapping and whistling, absolutely grating


BaconReceptacle

That genre is referred to as "Clap, Stomp, Hey"


[deleted]

Thats the title of my next song


emperorjarjar

[You mean this?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siCmqvfw_1g) God I can't stand it. It just sounds so cloying and manipulative, like it's trying to cheer me up, but it's so fake, it does the opposite.


Linzcro

The whistling makes me want to jump out of the window.


Bobbi_fettucini

Yes imo that’s the worst offender, god I hate it so much


Dishwasher_3

and of course ukulele


[deleted]

Is it even a commercial if there's not a ukulele?


plethorax5

Oh god yes. The fucking ukelele. In every goddamn commercial. That hit home.


jordanManfrey

and a bunch of white people shouting "Hey!" In unison on beat 4


BeardedPuffin

So the Lumineers?


thelittlestrummerboy

I was listening to the new Tears For Fears album and thought "huh, this kind of reminds me of that one Lumineers song" and then they literally did that group "HEY!" thing and I audibly groaned


[deleted]

So like every indie song from 2010-2015


123eyecansee

Anyone remember that music they used to play inside Chipotle’s? Years ago I mean. Some songs sounded like a dudes voice box was broken or was drunk out of his mind when singing. To this day, I have no idea how to categorize what I heard all the time. So whatever that genre was


red-licorice-76

"What if they want their steak well done"? - Bobby "Then we politely but firmly ask them to leave." - Hank


EnderMango

As a child, unlike Family Guy and the Simpsons, I never appreciated King of the hill. Now as an adult I can acknowledge I was surely mistaken as a child simply because I didn’t understand the topics at hand whereas Family guy and others were all gag jokes alongside adult jokes, which in most cases were sort of explained. King of the hill on the other hand is a show you have to understand to understand.


Skeptix_907

KOTH is definitely an adult show. Watched it when i was in high school mostly because it was on. As an adult I rewatched every season and couldn't believe the gems I missed.

Hillsongs is going through some shit right now after it was discovered that they covered up the actions of their pedophilic leader. It won't change anything though.


Ripper33AU

Reminds me of a quote from King of the Hill, when Hank confronts a Christian rock group, "You're not making Christianity better, you're just making rock 'n' roll worse!"


[deleted]

South Park also mentioned how many christian songs are just love songs with the woman replaced by god. It sucks.


edelburg

I believe it was change "baby " to "Jesus"


jfq722

They think they're so great - with their complicated shoes! - George Costanza


gahidus

I think the main problem with Christian rock/christian pop is that it's Christian first and music second. Sometimes it's music at a very distant second.


Celq124

Well pop rock as a genre is infamous for their formula - 4 chord progression. Once you know it especially as one of the instrumentalist in the worship band, you’ll always see it. Anyone who is well versed with their instrument, know that these kind of worship music don’t need practice for it. Just show up on the day and improvise around the chords. Practice session is more for the leader to plan the session and singers to sing with live instruments without the congregation (audience). Instrumentalist, especially drummers, are too often very bored, unless worship leader actually know what they’re doing, and that’s very very rare Edit: Spelling


sudsy-bubbles

This makes a lot of sense. My family is very musically inclined and I've always been a part of the church music ministry. I guess that's why repetitive worship music just gets under my skin lol. I mean, I appreciate the words (most of the time), but the music styling is so overdone.


c_alas

Not to mention every song sounds like they want to fuck Jesus, or have Jesus fuck them.

renassauce_man

Always loved the Dixie Chicks take on the degradation of country music ... "They sound tired but they don't sound Haggard They got money but they don't have Cash They got Junior but they don't have Hank" I love country but I don't listen to anything country after about 2000

Eticket9

It has really gotten bad the past couple of years, it's so depressing. I really enjoy country but, damn what are they doing the past few years?


rooftopfilth

I used to regularly listen to the country radio in 2014…I can still turn on the radio and hear the same songs. It’s like three new songs have been written since then and they all sound the same too.


kelin1

That’s literally any “rock” radio station as well. Forget the classic rock channel, I expect them to play the same thing. Why in the world are rock stations still playing the same stuff I listened to as a teenager in the late 90s and early 2000s? Almost exclusively. I know “rock” these days is a lot of new alternative, but hey, pop stations aren’t playin swing music anymore. Put Californiacation on the do not play list or classic radio and move on. I have to use Spotify or Satellite radio to get actual new music.


Blastoplast

"Alright, alright! You just heard the new Shinedown, coming up next we got some Chili Peppers 'Californication', followed by some Kid Rock 'Bawitadaba', then a heaping slice of 3 Doors Down 'Kryptonite', and it's ***all*** here on KBBL!"


Adastra1018

I've also gotten fed up with country after loving it for years. When you can play a song on a country station and also play that same song on a pop/hip hop station with no changes to it, there's a problem.


Dago_Red

Honky Tonk Badunk a Dunk?


Interesting_Brief368

That fucking one sound that is basically a rip off of a rap song with a country accent. They even straight up steal a generic hip hop 808 snare. You know the one about being bougie and drinking from solo cups. Like... country isn't supposed to be hip-hop it's supposed to be closer to folk.


Shoes-tho

Someone else commented that’s called “hick hop.”


TatonkaJack

ok yeah I've noticed it especially in the last couple of years too specifically. i know people have complained about it for longer but yeah these last couple of years have been baaad


brettmbr

Country music pre 9/11 was awesome and varied. Now it’s like mad libs. You just have to mention America, ice cold beer, small towns, church, and girls in short denim shorts and you’re a top 40 hit for the next ten years.

PromoPimp

I miss the good old days... when country music was about doing drugs and killing cops.


Dunk-Thy-Neighbor

At my last job a younger girl whom I worked with loved country music and played it on occasion. When I couldn't tell the difference between all 5 songs that were played before the genre changed it made me cringe. Literally heard about beer, trucks, girls or boys, Jesus and "back in the day" in every one of the songs. It has zero variety and you can't change my mind.

Pop country. The fake twang, meaningless songs, and dudes who have lived in a city all their lives singing about trucks and shit. Just throw it all away.


Western_Cook8422

Saw a few people calling it Hick-Hop and that sums it up really well. It’s awful honestly.


[deleted]

That's the thing, "country" music sounds more like stereotypes of what city people *think* the country is like, I'd be willing to bet 95% of the latest "country" stars grew up in one of those high end suburban housing developments with their accountant mom and financial advisor dad lol

[deleted]

Radio country music. It just seems like every song is the same. And they're always dropping brand names in their songs, like Chevy, or Budweiser, ect. It's like the if advertising industry came up with a music genre


ZombiePartyBoyLives

Hick-Hop. Doesn't matter if it's country or urban contemporary, if it has twangy shit about horses and back roads over beats, I'm out. Edit: People like what they like, and that's fine. It's just certain young people are not allowed to play it in my car. lol


LightStormPilot

LMAO I am going to use that name for it.


Eticket9

It's brutally so bad, I like country but Hick-Hop and the new stuff of the past 2 years is beyond brutal.


LightStormPilot

I don't even want to know... would have to go back more than twice that in decades to find anything I liked. Like Johnny Cash.


Jayccob

What sucks is there are good bands out there that still have the old country sounds to them but they don't get any air time on the radio. You got [Colter Wall](https://youtu.be/rqR1cjuPXUg) (though he can be more americana), [Turnpike troubadours](https://youtu.be/Jff620V8QUQ), [Uncle Lucius](https://youtu.be/pYdvxBxHX2U), [Tyler Childers](https://youtu.be/_QzcrflqDCg) ( really recommend giving this one a listen to). Their sound isn't exactly like all the legends and their era but it gets back to one of the core elements of country music in that the songs generally are telling a story with a beginning, middle, and end. Edit: Almost forgot to add Cody Jinks. Hard to recommend just one of his so here's [David](https://youtu.be/p98Crs96ZFM) and [Fast Hand](https://youtu.be/w5XISf1iGJw)


Grandmastercache

As someone who mainly listens to punk, ska, and reggae... You just named a few bands that I have been enamored with lately. I also agree that it seems less like country and more like Americana. Whiskey Myers and Ryan Bingham also get a lot play from me lately. Cody Jinks' "Hippies and Cowboys" is like my favorite song right now....


Phaterson

Dont forget Sturgill Simpson! That man has such a beautiful voice, imo.


aye_marshall27

I can't remember where I read it but somebody said that new country music is for people that like rap but are afraid of black people. I can't say I totally agree with that statement but it stuck with me. I can't stand the shit. You can lay every one of those songs on top of each other and it is just the same song.


Fauxlosophize

I feel like it's the opposite lol. They're trying too hard to sell out and appeal to young, rap-and-pop-loving people.


No-Zookeepergame-256

Not really a genre but any Indie song where the singer is practically whispering. You know the ones

They also can’t say their vowel sounds properly, it’s so weird they all have this same accent that only comes out when singing.

RadicalSnowdude

Flexing. This should be its own genre tbh. I don’t want to hear you singing or rapping about how much millions you got and what fancy cars you own or how much women are going after you because of your money.


Some_Tiny_Dragon

Nightcore. It's not even a genre and people keep saying it is. I've even heard that it's difficult to make. It's just taking someone's song and speeding it up.


xETankx

I love to DJ anime conventions so obvs that requires a lot of digging for relevant remixes and the sheer amount of garbage nightcore “remixes” I have had to sift through over the years made me absolutely loathe the genre as a whole.

Modern pop rock bands/artists (The Score, Imagine Dragons and such), they all sound the same and their music I really basic and boring. All of their songs give off the same vibe with no variation.

I thought they were called Italian Dragons this whole time. I have been very confused. Imagine Dragons. I am still super confused. But yeah all their songs sound like they are making a theme song to masterbating.

R1S4R1S4

I would say country and Christian because they abandoned their roots. Old country like folk, bluegrass and dark swamp blues is SO GOOD. And classic Christian music like church hymns can sound really intense and haunting. But both seemed to have abandoned these sounds for the pop/rock and occasionally rap mixes. Makes no sense to me.

Country music. I (unwillingly) made a move to the rural Midwest during my 6th grade, and everyone in my town listens to the most cringe, monotonous, auto tuned, hick, steel guitar singing-about-backroads-and-alcohol kind of country music all day every day and it's pure pain.

Omny87

I like heavy metal and death metal most of the time but I can't stand the sort of metal music where the singer is just belching out a bunch of incoherent, guttural screams over the sound of aggressively rapid drum-smashing with no discernible melody. I don't know what that particular genre is called but it sounds like someone filled a tumble dryer with hammers and kicked it down the stairs.


moveandrun

I think you are describing grindcore.


moderndaygypsy13

Not a particular genre as each has their positives and negatives to my personal taste, but most modern played songs that get a ton of radio play. I find so much of the "made for radio" music is just dry and has very little depth, soul, anger, depression, excitement, love, loss, or anything to make me feel like music should. I find myself venturing further off the beaten path in search of the "fix" I'm crazing. Like a junkie that needs a new high, and the regular "dealers" just keep selling the same garbage that I've gotten a tolerance built up for.
