GTFO rolling worst music of 2014

my point being, yes the production is irritating, especially on the verses; but the inoffensive blandness of the lyrics is infinitely preferable to the "American Apparel underwear" song from upthread

lol i used to like that sr-71 song quite a bit, had totally forgotten about it

inoffensive blandness

this is a terrible phrase. blandness is exceptionally offensive

wow twenty one pilots is terrible and made extra terrifying by the video where they whip up a whole arena into a youth rally frenzy

xp I will take bland pop lyrics over conspicuously bad pop lyrics six times a week and twice on sunday

The lyrics are bland in a sleazy dishonest pickup artist way that's kind of funny paired with that guy's babyface.

Also the 30 seconds in the middle where they take away the vocal processing so you'll know he can ~really sing~ is funny to me.

this year is going to be a banner one for shitty majorish-label rock. like 1998 proportions

I didn't find this one too objectionable. Kinda like an attempt to merge Coldplay and the Shins, which if this is a major label thing, is pretty hilarious: way to have your finger on the pulse of 2003, guys!

that song is better than anything i've heard from, idk, MGMT

I like that Wild Cub song okay

Posting an Ark Music Pato Music World track here is a passé move I know but w/e:

number 1 in Australia the past 2 weeks

Ugh, that seems primed to come stateside...

Most artists, particularly female artists, who start young are in an accelerated rush to mature musically with each new album. Avril Lavigne has gone backwards her whole career and is intellectually/sonically 8 years old now.

Gwen Stefani has taught us nothing.

Not true. I now know how to spell bananas.

I'm curious about that but "The content has been blocked by SME, on copyright grounds." Am I in the wrong country?

I can't watch it now either, but I could 30 minutes ago. Oh well.

It's here

Aw c'mon, no LOLs for Cronk?

Well, I LOL'd...

Wow.

^This! Thanks for the LOLz

Make sure you stay tuned for the "Meow!" and the sub-dubstep drop near the end.

lol @ the backup dancers and (what I choose to see as) their barely-concealed rage

Jesus that Avril song is awful.

this is pretty wretched but it's also been out for a while? nickelback guy cowrote it but he and david hodges basically cowrote the entire avril album.

It's been out since last year, and was posted in the 2013 topic, but the video is new.

what is this even trying to be

came here to post the avril video. oh well, should've known better.

we shouldreally poll these at the end of the year, so many contenders this year

who the fuck are these people and where do we send them back to?

haaaa i was thinking she should just go in here now

How is that My Crazy Girlfriend thing any different from any other song whatsoever? Is there anything distinguishing about it at all?

pretty cool visuals on that Lily Allen, too bad about the rest.

The only thing distinguishing about that MCG song is that it sounds like its from 2001 or thereabouts.

The Lily Allen, however, is uniquely dreadful.

"You need to read the new article on Buzzfeed about the Illuminati"

Lily Allen is the worst. Wow, you use pointless curse words in boring R&B songs, how exciting...

yikes that Lily Allen thing- the weird cascade of wannabe-"controversial" references to other, more successful pop stars seems like a misguided re-write of 50 Cent's "How to Rob" (or else a weird attempt to adopt a Lorde-esque stance towards pop success- which is easier to take- however dubious for other reasons-if you're a teen than if you're a has been It girl)

the lily allen thing is going to be her "bollywood" (or I guess, hilariously, kate nash album), i.e. the point where all the accumulated awfulness and hatred reaches the point where it wraps around and I no longer hate it

I can't with that Avril video
oh, she likes japanese things now

She's 29!

She's forever 14

HERE'S TO NEVER GROWING UP

i thought avril was like 50 by now

I think this girl wants to be new Avril
