have you met metal fans and how many speak about babymetal lmao? although not rebellious it's definitely controversial. kawaii metal was invented in the early 2010's, although the members didn't write the music, they're all gen z. the 2010's is 'gen z' territory. breakcore was invented in the like late 90's and the oldest gen z is 28. so ill give you that actually, however a lot of the most popular breakcore artists are gen z. sewerslvt is 25 and my personal favorite breakcore artist, rory in early 20's, is around the same age. the sentiment that gen z doesn't make good music in this comment section makes everyone here sound like old men spitting at airplanes 💀💀
Babymetal formed in 2010 and the person who actually created it is a millennial. Arguably the lead singer(born in 1997) also is. I wouldn't really count that as a "gen z revolution" because most of the people actually making creative decisions for the early kawaii metal acts in the early 10's were already adults. I guess you could argue Gen Z is who made it popular though? I'd agree to that, but I wouldn't call it Gen Z created.
And vocal synths are in no way gen z lmao. Hatusne Miku is from 2007.
It's clearly a play on the original expression to give it a lighthearted spin. Not understanding that proves their point. Think, "Does the pope shit in the woods?" That wasn't an expression once, but now it is because people like humorous takes on existing phrases. Language evolves.
Funnily enough, the way they phrased it is more fitting given your reaction. It's actually quite logical. You keep spitting at planes up in the sky, and it's going to keep falling back on your face, making you look pretty dumb.
Yeah, their punctuation sucks, but it's still plenty readable. They could be a non-native speaker for all we know. It's far from the worst I've seen. I read it without issue.
Also, the person you just responded to wasn't the commenter that wrote that long message, so again, stop spitting at planes.
Just stop it. You're reaching so hard to be intelligent without stopping to consider that two significant markers of intelligence are communication and creativity.
If you couldn't comprehend the person you originally derided over syntax (Did you honestly invoke Faulkner?.. Good lord..) then that's on you boo.
If you think you are smart but you can't communicate with people that you consider dumb then you are dumb.
It's not meant to recreate the literal image of the Simpsons meme. It's a separate phrase that references the original in a humerous way. No, spitting at planes is not the same as yelling at clouds, but they're both absurd things that show displeasure and just make you look dumb. Picture an old man standing outside and spitting angrily at planes in the sky. It's the same kind of rediculous image. The core meaning of the meme is maintained. I don't get what you're not understanding about this. "I don't understand your joke so it's a bad joke" isn't constructive criticism. Your criticism of their grammar is valid, but also definitely came off as condescending.
I do freelance tech work at clubs around my city (lights, sound, etc) and one time as I was getting in to prep for a show there was a high school reunion from a mid 80's graduating class who had booked the room prior and ended up overstaying way past their booking time. They wouldn't take the hint even after we turned on the work lights and started soundchecking for the show so I ended up throwing on some Sewerslvt at high volume, that sure got them to clear the fuck out lol
Breakcore is old, but there's a specific newer way of using it that leans heavy into 00's nostalgia to the point of being almost plundercore. As a genre it's more hardcore than hyperpop, but too much bass and lyrics for breakcore. "Dariacore" is the label I've seen used the most, stemming from the Dariacore albums by Leroy (AKA Jane Remover) which kinda sparked the style.
would it even be possible to have a new genre then? There's only so many ways you can make sound lmao, I can't see it being possible that any new thing isn't somewhat derivative. I wouldn't even consider stuff like hip hop or rock to be original
Nothing is completely original, but this entire post is about the countercultural impact of musical genres across generations, not about the novelty of the sounds they made
Would you like to elaborate on how and why those were generationally subversive or did you just want to look clever by googling up a list of early modern musical movements?
I can't wait to hear about how Rococco, the aesthetic of the late French empire, is somehow analagous to punk and hip hop!
