Every year the RYM top albums chart gets more and more obscure.
Is popular music really dead?
>>
>>130526751
RYM has been replaced by AOTY
>>
I think you’re forgetting how many people there are in the world and how fee of them know what the hell rym is. Go outside and ask a random person on the street what rym is. Or better yet, ask them if they know what boards of canada is.
>>
>>130526783
Few of them*
>>
>>130526783
Roygbiv has 50 million streams on spotify, it's not that obscure
>>
>>130526806
Spotify is 18 years old, my guy.
>>
>>130526751
None of these are real bands. AI shit all across the board.
>>
It's just discordniggers collectively pushing their little pet albums to the top
>>
>>130526893
The last 3 are, i've been a fan of all of them for years,
Fuck rym btw, social media of any kind is jewish dogwhit
>>
>>130526751
2020s music is just terrible, let's be honest.

>not knowing about Neurosis
They have made music for over 30 years
>>
>>130527105
The second post you replied to didnt mention anything about that, just the truth.
It might be a good album, but it's all just collectives of retards AND impressionable retards following the 'tastemakers' on rym
>>
>>130526751
are any of these good though

Boards of Canada and Neurosis are way more well known than whatever I've seen the past few years, Panopticon too, but to a lesser extent.
>>
>>130526864
It took years for it to become popular though
>>
>>130528303
Even we assume it took 8 years to become popular, BoC fans are savvy, and they definitely would have been early adopters and listening to to BoC, and that's another decade of listening when it became popular. 50 million over that period of time is nothing. Harry Styles hit 1B one of his songs if half a year.

They were always like this, aside from when the site was mostly used by classic rock-worshipping boomers and gen X.
Kendrick Lamar (and maybe Charli) were the last mainstream artists to unite hipsters and normies.

Boards of Canada became mainstream when Adult Swim started using their music for bumpers
>>
>>130528468
So mainstream that they have no songs that have surpassed 50 million listens over almost 20 years.
>>
>>130528496
Spotify only became popular in like 2013
>>
>>130529005
So 14 years and 50 million listens on one song? Harry Styles gets 1billion on a song in 5-6 months?
>>
>>130526751
ive actually listened to metal before so i know those bands, im just suprised there isnt more trannycore
>>
>>130526751
>random spanish album
why do they do this
>>
>>130529134
It's a brazilian folk/black metal
Havent heard that album but i heard a couple previous ones, it's actually a tasteful blend of jungle folk influences with metal
>>
>>130526751
>no c(rap)
>no troonslop
RYM is healing
>>
i see this more as maybe the idea of poptimism has become exhausted, or maybe drake and taylor swift are just shit and old, and kanye fell off
>>
its more cause spotify killed music and the quality has went down hard in the last 5ish years
theres little incentive to make music with the prices for instruments but also with ai upcoming etc
>>
>>130529909
>troonies finally gave up
>chad metalheads remain
Guess we know what real music is finally
>>
>>130526751
this is popular music
>>
>>130529940
you cant kill the metal, the metal will live on

Fuck off bot
>>
>>130530015

>>
>>130526751
There's more pop on it now than there was in the 2000s
>>
>>130526783
I'd never heard of Boards Of Canada until this rollout and I've been posting here for years.
