Western culture is defined by exactly one word and one word only: narcissism.
Emo rap was emotionally absent music made to cater to teen's narcissism.
Pop music at this point is just for catering to slutty women's narcissism
This new string of "alt" (not) country is just made to obsess over being "real" so poor and stupid people have something catering to their narcissism as well.
Our culture has devolved into a cataclysm of people's self obsession. People are freaking out more and more about the aspects of their character they can't change while just not giving a fuck about the things they can. And it's thanks to the popularity of social media.
>inb4 dumb twitter using faggot with the big brained take of "this has always been the case in America"
No no no no no wrong no no you're a dumb nigger social media uniquely made this problem homogenized and hyper prevelent it was nothing like this before you're a nigger off a bridge with you.
The dynamic of normies who fall in line vs black sheep with different ideas in and of itself has disappeared from our culture.
The closest thing to "rebellious" art in the west would be things most people who browse this board wouldn't be caught dead listening to like Ska-punk and Psycho-Billy. You won't meet bands that are bad at playing this music even after 30 years, because there is absolutely no social capital to be gained from idenfiying with this stuff. People who like it are only into it because they like it. They have to be good at it to have people coming to the shows at all. There's other genres like Noise or Outsider Music that are a little bit more "creatively bold" for lack of a better term that fit this description but the days of Manson or Eminem type figures being "shockers" are over forever. That garbage IS the zeitgeist.
