how is this called music?
 

i just found this website with an album by some guy on it and i thought i'd download. After the first track i was going to come here and post about it, but then i thought "it can't possibly be that bad, i must have got a corrupted file. i'll download another track". so i did. even more awful.

go there and listen to some of the tracks this guy has released. http://phobos.serve.com/ian_nagoski/

i dont understand how that is music. it's not like i'm someone who says that music isnt music purely because i dont like it. with this i just genuinely do not understand how it could ever be called music.

opinions?

It can be called music because it IS a form of music.

From www.m-w.com:
Like you said

This is quite unique. It's so dark, scary even. This guy could probably make a great score for a horror movie. It's scaring the shit out of my dog too. He keeps looking at the speakers. Yeah I'll say this is music. Just not the kind of music people are used to.

Asta!!

Well, it's not the kind of music that people normally listen to, but yeah, just like vanblah said, it is music. It's definately some of the wierder stuff that I've heard (and I've heard some very wierd music)

Actually it's not too bad. If you like this you should check out Lull and Nordvargr.

I just hope there is something wrong with the files that were originally uploaded so then that way there is a logical explanation to what I have just listened to!

I don't think it's that bad... seems very personal

I don't think it's bad necessarily, it just doesn't cater to my musical tastes :D
