The house next door to me is going up for sale soon and I’d like to delay that process as much as possible. What would be the most annoying music I could play when prospective buyers are next door?
Reggae can be fun, especially to dance to, but when heard through a wall, you mostly hear the bass and all reggae has the same bass track. It’s almost comical, like that beat is a requirement of the genre. After hours of reggae you’ll wanna smash that stereo.
Alright. Y’all ever hear about the shaggs?
A dad was told by a fortune teller that his yet-unborn kids were destined for musical stardom. After that, the dad had no choice but to force his eventual kids into a band.
These kids had no musical training. No sense of rhythm, no sense of pitch.
Their released music is the auditory equivalent of a child’s crayon drawing hung on the fridge. It’s astoundingly disjointed. It’s all wrong. Frank Zappa said they’re better than the Beatles. SOMEONE out there likes screamo. Some folks out there like bagpipes. Then what happens? Your neighbor loves blasting screamo. You’ve played yourself. Unless Frank Zappa is moving in, you’d be hard pressed to find a potential buyer that like the shaggs.
This is not a judgement of the musical genre and I think it’s way more profound and expressive than the average commodified pop music we have. However, I remember making a report about the history of music (for an arts appreciation class in college) and I ended the report with some Japanoise (a genre of noise music) like this one:
The teacher was really delighted, but my classmates were like “WTF?”
EDIT: Reworded some confusing sentence construction
Clown Core is for those with discerning tastes.
There’s always the risk that people who visit the house next door are into whatever annoying music you’re playing and end up moving there and blasting it for the rest of your life
What’s that dolphin-sounding song someone played during sex in that meme? That.
Alternatively, the brown note (assuming it’s real).
Or like hardcore noise stuff. Is “Wall of sound” a type of it?
Edit: How could I forget Ram Ranch?
Yes! Cbat hahaha. Thanks.
Modern pop country
I have to go with dubstep. Clown Core is interesting, but it still has sections that are clearly music. Dubstep is just noise.
L opinion. some dubstep is just noise. A lot of it has a lot of beautiful harmony and songwriting. Black midi is a lot more like “just noise”
Regeaton and Trap 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
I would feel mostly meh about reggaeton if it wasn’t the one and only thing everyone ever hears in a 300km radius of where I live. It’s frankly sad that Latin America, having so much creativity and diversity in culture, ended up with such talentless noise as the absolutely dominant genre.
It’s literally inescapable and an entire generation already only listens to reggaeton. It’s lazy and unpleasant, combined with a completely commercial mindset.
I’m a huge fan of southamerican rock, and sadly is true that it has been drawn by that misogynistic shit.
But bands like Los 3 are still live and so many people still hear them, there is hope.
Apparently you never listened to Young Dolph
Who?
If you really want the sale to not happen, put any brazilian funk on max volume. “Proibidão” for the worst of the worst
It is, and always will be, children’s music, like Baby Shark.
When German people go to hell, or skiing, they are forced into little tents, served shitty overpriced beer, and are subject to repeated blows to their ears by a type of parasitic earworm whispered fearfully only in dark circles as “schlagermusik”.
Once exposed to it, it eats into their brain and gets behind their eyeballs, forcing them to wear manic grins, and tap tables to the weak, incoherent, barely thought out beats drumming mercilessly into what’s left of their soul.
Years after leaving the German part of Switzerland I still get A!-tem!-los! in my head out of nowhere sometimes :(
Oo-la-pa-loo

That’s pretty accurate, actually. Same goes for “Apres Ski”, which is the same but more annoying and sexist.
Oktoberfest?
Let him who hath understanding
Reckon the Month of the Beast
For it is a Human Month…
I was going to say polka music but this is close enough
Rap and hip-hop. The “message” of EVERY rap song is “look at my dick.” It’s pathetic pointless crap, that’s one step above banging rocks together.
This is just… racism?
Its easy to find sexuality-focussed songs in literally any genre, from classical to jazz. And one of the most highly regarded hip hop tracks of all time is 2pacs ode to his mother.
No, it’s just shit music. Thanks for playing the “racism” game.
That is a different point entirely. Your initial criticism was that the lyrical content was only about penises, now you’re saying that your subjective preference is the only consideration on a wide umbrella genre-of-genres.
Why should anyone care that you’re saying “I don’t like thing?”
No, you immediately squealed “racism” rather than make an argument for the contributions of rap / hiphop. I imagine this tactic has worked for you many times.
You picked a racist trope about a predominantly black genre. It is a very common racist stereotype dating back hundreds of years to claim that people of African (and other black) heritage are more sexually aggressive than other cultures.
Even if you didn’t intend it, or weren’t aware of that, I am telling you now there is a well documented history of such intent.
Ignorant bullshit. There’s whole generas of rap and hip hop that you’re unaware of. There’s hip hop songs about drinking tea ffs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eELH0ivexKA
I vote for Japanische Kampfhörspiele!
That has a little too much rhythm for me. I’d recommend some Fushitsusha
