Everyone should be allowed to listen to what kind of music they want! There's garbage modern music and there's garbage music made in the past

More than a third of the listed bands/singers and/or their music are completely unknown to me. I feel so old now :(

Music should be federally regulated

If all you sing/rap about is your riches, you're an a*****e singer and I refuse to listen to you.

I hope the next trend in music will be Talent...

Pop music nowadays are overly polished & not enough soul or lost its raw form!

My weird opinion: electro can be pretty good. Mixed with industrial metal . . . Goodness! I don’t mean light dubstep. I honestly am not a fan of rap myself. Most of it that’s popular is just . . . *oof*. But to each their own!

I can't stand Christina Aguilera's singing voice or Ariana Grande's...Christina does annoying a*s "runs" too much and I don't like her tone, and Ariana is too breathy and mumbles too much. I can never understand what she is saying.

I listen to black metal but because I have lots of tattoos (someone actually once said to me "you have your fingers tattooed, you clearly don't listen to 'nice' music") and wear mostly black, people assume I'm a music snob but as I'm writing this, I'm listening to Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys and before that I was listening to Bone Machine by Tom Waits. If I like it, I like it. I know a lot of people who only listen to one genre of music and refuse to listen to anything else; it takes the joy out of music completely.

An idea: Arctic monkeys are lowkey good and people should stop grouping arctic monkeys, the neighborhood and the 1975 together. Also, pop-punk deserves better(Listen to state champs, knuckle puck, real friends, all time low, etc if you never heard of any pop-punk, which is green day,blink-182 etc)

People are entitled to their opinion, but don't hate on people's music choices. Good music is in the ear of the beholder 😂

just leave me and my bad music tastes alone :'(

You Forget DIE ANTWOOD

All of the people saying they don't like any current music, there are lots of artists that you might like if you don't just stick to mainstream. There are so many local/smaller artists out there. I didn't 'discover' music until in my mid 20s because all I heard was mainstream and I just tuned out (though I did like a bit of the 'golden oldies). Then I was living with my brother and he had a local station on all the time and it just clicked. I didn't dislike music, I just hadn't heard anything that was interesting.

Everyone saying emo is stupid It's not okay? Get that through your pea sized brain

The only thing more annoying than mainstream music and it’s fans are people who go out of their way to make a show of not liking it. Like, your bookish gamer nerd persona and the the music that goes with it is so trite that it might as well be mainstream too. Most of the comments here are just taking the contrarian position to the mainstream standard. No actual individual thought at all. They end up just being a different kind of mainstream. Not trying to be holier than thou, I just don’t know how else to put it.

Seriously? Random people tweeting about music? Bored Panda, you can do better.

I find it hilarious that even on posts meant to be open to opinions we still get so many hidden submissions

I've been an Elton John fan for more than 40 years now, so none of these "unpopular" opinions are new to me, lol! In the mid-70s, this was a popular opinion. Now, not so much. And I spent WAY too much time arguing with a Swiftie on Twitter that Kate Bush was the far more talented of the two ladies, but she had no Grammys to show for it whereas Taylor has something like 10. In the end, it's all subjective anyway. Listen to whatever and whoever makes you happy, end of.

I'm shocked that TJler hasn't said something negative yet. Poor dude. Don't hate on him, he hates himself already.
