Music that cannot be categorized by genre is highly unlikely to succeed in reaching its audience. People in general need points of reference to compare music to when they try to analyze it in-depth: conventions and music theory can both serve as these points of reference, but most people don't have extensive knowledge of the latter, so genre standards are the go-to guide to music appreciation.

And most competent musicians know this. Most bands have a preexisting concept of what genre they want to fit into, and they compose their music accordingly. By denying the application of genre categorizations, you are robbing
yourself
of the chance to enjoy the music the way it was intended.

Stop being a fucking smarty-pants know-it-all Korts.

We spend weeks preening over how great our taste in music is and how everyone else's sucks, then we rabble when the results are late, then we cry in our beers as he place on the right hand side of the results.

Greatest. Description. Ever.

And fuck, they're stealing our jerbs! *angry fist wave*

Uh... no, don't know what that means.
2 songs I don't even have to listen to, a few I'm dreading listening to, and then a ton of stuff I've never heard of.

I actually saw them live in concert about 3 years ago.

It's awesome how instead of commenting on the music, you focus on the fact that like a 40-50 y/o woman weighs more than 2 pounds now. (By awesome, I mean stereotypical and extremely annoying.)

I keep some comments ambiguous so you don't know exactly how I'll vote. Unbunch your panties please.

No, fuck you man, I want you to post your votes

in the thread.

Couple years ago right?

Yep, got dragged to some giant amphitheater that my parents wanted to see a bunch of classic pop/rock bands in.

Almost went to that show up by me. Glad I didn't apparently haha.

Switzerland just won the award for longest teeter-totter between "Wow this is weird shit and kinda cool" and "Holy fuck this is pissing me the fuck off."

To be fair, I enter to experience new music, not coach aspiring musicians on what they can do better. I vote based on how much I enjoy a given song. I'm not here to give you (or anyone) point by point breakdowns of what you could do better to get a recording contract. Not to be a dick, but there are better outlets for that than SC.
