I don't really think of genres, when i think of pretentiousness, I just think of Radiohead fans.

retarded hipster's idea of "good" or "aesthetic"

without genuinely understanding the philosophy (reasonings) of either of those concepts: good & aesthetic / beautiful thus they are retarded. They dont practice what they preach. They pretend to.

shoegaze is the least pretentious alternative genre, and one of the most accessible rock genres I can think of.

I don’t think its pretentious (no one is able to hear their shit lyrics anyway) it just feels so over saturated as a genre. And the generic bands who aren’t established try to sound like Deftones.
